Simons has been listed as questionable (forearm)

 

[Strenuus]

Go Knicks! Get people to realize the win streak was an awful thing this year like I did when we were in the middle of it!

Sucks it took so long for people to see something so obvious!

 

[blazerkor]

Deni's game is great. He just lost the handle in traffic going to the hoop picked the ball back up and just laid it in like no one was around him. Dude has outside game, he has ultra athletic game, he's got defensive game (just intercepted a pass like a free safety) and on the play this post started out addressing he had old man game.

 

[blazerfan11]

in March, Shaedon Sharpe is #1 for a Trail Blazer at two-point shooting percentage for anyone who takes over two per game. 60%.
60% on 2-pointers for a guard is fantastic.

However he is the worst three-point shooter on the team for anyone who takes more than two per game in March. 25%.

today he is 3-3 on two point shots and 0-4 on three-point shots.

 

[blazerkor]

Wow! Precious just dominating us for three straight possessions.

 

[wizenheimer]

Simons is a tank captain so far in this game. Ball hog on one end, sieve on the other

and yeah...Sharpe needs to stop chucking three's

 

[Cugel]

Pure iso offense here tonight by POR

 

[blazerkor]

Broadcast team points out that we were shooting an abysmal 2 for 14 from three and then we hit three in a row from downtown.

And then Shaedon puts one in that was picture perfect.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I don't think we have had many 15-0 runs this year.....

 

[Bingo Bango]

Is Henderson injured?

 

[Jelloman]

0 point from our bench at the half. Combined for -37. Its a miracle we are up 8.

 

[Jelloman]

Is Henderson injured?

Concussion. Should be out at least a week.

 

[PCmor7]

Concussion. Should be out at least a week.

He was hit by a tank.

 

[Bingo Bango]

Simons will lose you as many games as he will win.

 

[Cugel]

Deni Tou and Shae looking good

 

[B-Roy]

Simons is definitely dealing with some sort of hand injury. These shots are not even close.

 

[B-Roy]

Simons is worse than useless out there. If he’s hurt take him out.

 

[Sheldon Shape]

Simons is worse than useless out there. If he’s hurt take him out.

No way. He is contributing to a loss like we need.

 

[kjironman1]

My opinion on Simons has kind of changed. His contract is good. Certainly for his talent. There is a place for him on this team. He’s getting better on both sides of the ball. Of course if the deal is right he’s not untouchable.

 

[Cugel]

3pt line was the difference maker

 

[Blazinaway]

My opinion on Simons has kind of changed. His contract is good. Certainly for his talent. There is a place for him on this team. He’s getting better on both sides of the ball. Of course if the deal is right he’s not untouchable.

Fully disagree

 

[Blazinaway]

No way. He is contributing to a loss like we need.

Yep, we need this loss

 

[illmatic99]

terrific loss

 

[wizenheimer]

Spurs and Pelicans definitely committed to the tank; Philly too

 

[Mediocre Man]

Ant single handedly taking charge of the tank. Quality effort

 

[Quatro44]

Looking at https://www.tankathon.com/ standings. Short term goal is pass the Spurs. Even better if we can catch the Raptors.

 

[wizenheimer]

Blazers now 5.5 games out of 10th seed with 7 games left. Will they just do the smart thing now?

 

[Mediocre Man]

My opinion on Simons has kind of changed. His contract is good. Certainly for his talent. There is a place for him on this team. He’s getting better on both sides of the ball. Of course if the deal is right he’s not untouchable.

Do we have two players named Simons?
