Game Thread 2024-25 GAME #37 - BLAZERS @ MAVERICKS - JAN 9, 2025 - THURS - 4:30 PM -CHARGE - KUNP - BLAZERVISION

[B-Roy]

Good on Chauncey to bench Benton for Murray

 

[blazerfan11]

I like this lineup Billups has now. Simons, Clingan, Deni, Kris and Sharpe.

 

[B-Roy]

If Clingan plays the rest of this game he’s going to end with more mins than Ayton. Feels like there’s a top down mandate to play the young guys more.

 

[Cugel]

Clear demonstrable growth from Murray this year. He just is probably too "nice". He needs his heart broken or something to give him a chip on his shoulder. He quietly plays a nice game.

 

[Sheldon Shape]

Three straight Ant possessions without success? Then Sharpe has to try and take someone off the dribble. The coach should be creating better opportunities.

 

[B-Roy]

Stop playing prevent offense. This team is not good enough to do that.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

That was a sick sequence from Sharpe. That's the stuff that gives me hope for the future

 

[Cugel]

Shae did not foul. falling apart. embrace the tank

 

[illmatic99]

billups decision making is so bad right now.

 

[blazerfan11]

Why is Clingan not in the game?

 

[Sheldon Shape]

Scoot should be finishing this game.

 

[B-Roy]

A million fouls

 

[Cugel]

12-0 run and no t/o!
got to love it.

check that 15-0 and he calls a fucking t/o. what other losing coach in the league endures a 10+ run w/o a timeout?

 

[Sheldon Shape]

Because Chauncey couldn't decide on who he should sit so he chose the rookie.

 

[blazerfan11]

Billups is like a handicap in golf.

 

[Foxx]

Simons is such *** garbage

 

[illmatic99]

how is he still out of his depth? he's been coach for 3 yrs now. i saw this coming from a mile away with the rotations and plays he was calling late in the fourth

 

[B-Roy]

At least a loss is a good thing

 

[Cugel]

it will be all simons/sharpe iso from here on out.

 

[B-Roy]

Are they seriously challenging this

 

[Cugel]

offense is non-existant.

 

[Foxx]

Simons gave away a lot of the final ten minutes. Complete liability everywhere on the court

 

[Cugel]

game over. you cant make this shit up

 

[illmatic99]

loss is pretty much entirely on billups in my estimation

 

[Cugel]

last blazers score was at 4:33

 

[B-Roy]

Coaching masterclass in tanking. Refs also biased af. But thank god the loss is a good thing.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I like this lineup Billups has now. Simons, Clingan, Deni, Kris and Sharpe.

It looked good didn't it; until it went 16-0 against them.

 

[illmatic99]

lol did chauncey really tell them to not foul

 

[Ripcity4life77]

Refs have not given the Blazers some calls and Billups crappy coaching has not helped but he could do something to redeem himself alittle. He should have gotten a T on purpose calling the refs out BUT we all know Billups has no balls anymore which is strange since he was fearless as a player guess they shriveled up in old age.

F U Billups

 

[blazerfan11]

that was bizarre the stretch where Clingan was taken out and Ayton wasn't in the game.

Mostly because Clingan was out.

He ended the game with only 24 minutes.
