[SharpesTriumph]

Pacers have been just as hot as the Blazers also winning 8 of their last 10. Both teams played last night, the Blazers a bit later and in overtime, the Pacers played in Utah with a close win and had to travel.

If we can win this one I might start thinking we have an actual chance at the playin.

Final game before the trade deadline.

 

[KingSpeed]

When is Thybulle coming back?

I still gotta see what we do in Denver. We play them twice in their building next week. Gotta win one of them. I think we got Indy, Sac, and Minny or at least 2 of them. So 3-2 worst case puts us at 24-31 at the break. Gotta go 17-10 after break to get to .500. We also have to avoid injuries.

P.S. Win all 5 to make us 26-29 and we are def going to playoffs.

 

[Chris Craig]

When is Thybulle coming back?

Never

 

[Chris Craig]

No trades yet. Everyone is playing.

 

[Cugel]

Joe is going with this roster next year plus whatever rookie they draft.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Ayton been doing so well but i gotta dish on him a little. Avdija waiting for him to dive on offense, he doesn't get it. Then way slow on the defense immediately after.

 

[HailBlazers]

I guess Timelord is here to stay.

 

[illmatic99]

this team is unrecognizable, especially defensively

I don't think Billups liked it either, pulled him out right after that lazy defense.

 

[B-Roy]

Rob Williams is so freaking good. I can’t get over it.

 

[Chris Craig]

I guess Timelord is here to stay.

Maybe.

We still got another day

The asking price is high though.

Probably staying

Everyone is probably staying

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I guess Timelord is here to stay.

They have to rest him usually so he won't get injured, but they gotta play him right before the deadline to prove he's "healthy".

 

[Mediocre Man]

So Timelord comes in before Clingan?

Timelord playing at all tonight is stupid

 

[B-Roy]

Shaedon and Scoots first step showing

 

[illmatic99]

So Timelord comes in before Clingan?

Timelord playing at all tonight is stupid

i dont think clingan will play tonight

 

[bemac]

Love this team....Be on a tear and one night, oh yeah, we still have Timelord to throw at ya as well. The depth is a thing of beauty.

 

[SharpesTriumph]

So Timelord comes in before Clingan?

Timelord playing at all tonight is stupid

Neither one of them plays back to backs.

 

[blazerfan11]

Scoot Henderson - 7 points and 5 rebounds in 6 minutes.

 

[Natebishop3]

Scoot Henderson seven points and five rebounds in six minutes.

It’s fucking absurd that he’s sitting already. Who cares if he has two fouls.

 

[Chris Craig]

So Timelord comes in before Clingan?

Timelord playing at all tonight is stupid

Cronin razzing the Lakers

 

[SharpesTriumph]

this team is unrecognizable, especially defensively

We had some great defensive stretches at the start of the season.

Our defense with Ant and Ayton on the floor has been one of the most amazing part of the recent wins.

 

[B-Roy]

Deni looks hurt

 

[Sheldon Shape]

Scoot Henderson - 7 points and 5 rebounds in 6 minutes.

I despise how short his first stint is in every game.

 

[Hoopguru]

this team is unrecognizable, especially defensively

They really push it and have become scrappy on d. They are deep too.

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Is Banton injured? If we're gonna bench Scoot I'd rather see him play some there as well as take Murray minutes.

 

[B-Roy]

So scoot is just a plus shooter now huh

 

[blazerfan11]

Grant is brutal on the 2-point isos.

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Deni looks hurt

What kind of injury?
