Game Thread 2024-25 GAME #40 - BLAZERS VS CLIPPERS - JAN 16, 2025 - THURS - 7 PM - CHARGE - KUNP - BLAZERVISION

[kjironman1]

Not a big Ayton fan but it does seem like Channing Frye calling him out made him play a bit better.

 

[Cugel]

Scoot is the only one making plays. But nobody is finishing.

 

[Quatro44]

Sharpe’s putbacks are legendary.

 

[illmatic99]

toumani with a forgettable half

 

[Chris Craig]

Very uninspired half

13-3 FT advantage for LA

 

[illmatic99]

scoot should easily have like 6 or 7 assists now if his teammates could hit anything

 

[PCmor7]

There's no structure here. Other than losing games, I don't know what any of our players are getting out of this.

On the positive side, Scoot with another 2 good quarters of play. Shaedon having a decent game. Ayton's play's been passable.

 

[Quatro44]

Pretty much only 3 Blazers have scored. DB with the lone 2 points

 

[julius]

Kinda difficult to win games when you have 3 players score all but 2 points for you in the first half.

Simons is laying an egg too.

FT's are 13 to 3.

NOT saying that is why they're down but jeesh....

 

[blazerkor]

Due to Shaedon being so quiet, I think his nickname should just be "Shh". Everytime he hits a three, a fadeaway or throws down a dunk even at home, I think that Shaedon should just put his finger to his lips like he's shushing his opponent.

I just think something creative like that could make a star out of a guy as understated as Shaedon is vocally.

@THE HCP get this stupid idea to whoever it is that can get it to Calabro and Shaedon. Let's make Shh happen!

Not a good shooting team. We have good shooting games, but not like other teams. There aren't a lot of guys you can count on to make open 3s.

I think that and and the lack of getting to the line are at least somewhat of a result of the rec ball offense Chauncey rolls out.

 

[blazerfan11]

I guess I want Scoot to shoot more 3-pointers. He's 2-4 in this game.

 

[Chris Craig]

Can we just waive Ayton

 

[blazerfan11]

So when does Rupert get to play? Down by 40 points?

 

[KingSpeed]

Can we just waive Ayton

Get rid of Ant first?

 

[blazerfan11]

Can we just waive Ayton

I'd waive whomever designs the Blazer offense first. Ayton and Scoot should be combining a lot more than we're seeing now.

 

[blazerkor]

Wow! We cut the lead to 29 forcing a Clippers time out.

 

[Cugel]

g'nite all.

 

[julius]

I think Simons caught DA's mojo tonight.

 

[KingSpeed]

g'nite all.

Gonna miss the comeback

 

[julius]

Gonna miss the comeback

if they can at least make it respectable.

 

[Quatro44]

DB Hooper thieving time.

 

[illmatic99]

simons is scoreless, as is toumani.

 

[julius]

simons is scoreless, as is toumani.

Simons just doesn't look like he's even remotely interested in being there.

 

[Freshtown]

This is why you don’t hold onto players and you trade them when you get good offers. We held out on Simons and grant and neither have the value today they did a year ago.

 

[KingSpeed]

All our guards and Ayton. Let’s go!!

 

[KingSpeed]

Maybe we didn’t get good offers?

 

[Chris Craig]

This team is pathetic

 

[KingSpeed]

Simons is pathetic

Fixed it

 

[Quatro44]

This team is pathetic

What you mean, they are so close to free McNuggets
