They playing to lose

 

[kjironman1]

Another Tank battle.

 

[blazerkor]

There's no reason for Toronto to tank at this point. There's no way they catch the Nets who are three games ahead of them in the lotto and there's no way that the Spurs (back 4 games) or us (back 5) catch them.

On the other hand we're only a game behind the Spurs so we should be tanking much harder than we are. SMH.

They playing to lose

Toronto is 5-5 in their last 10 games so they're not doing a great job losing.

 

[Ripcity4life77]

It's going to take a lot of talent to lose to this Raptors team and I am not sure Deni has it in him NOT to go all out and keep this Blazers team in it.

nm -- 5 sec call and the Raptors were not even pressuring -- maybe it will be easier then I made it out to be --- ROFL

 

[Cugel]

Eeesssh ugly game

 

[B-Roy]

Kris Murray.....what the hell dude. He's not an NBA player if he continues shooting 25% from 3.

 

[Cugel]

Kris Murray.....what the hell dude. He's not an NBA player if he continues shooting 25% from 3.

48 from the line. Brutal.

 

[B-Roy]

Kris might not get his 4th year option picked up.

 

[blazerfan11]

Kris might not get his 4th year option picked up.

As of now, there's no reason to pick it up.

 

[Cugel]

Include Delano in any trade as well

 

[B-Roy]

Include Delano in any trade

He is expiring.

 

[Cugel]

He is expiring.

He sure isn’t playing like a guy looking for a deal

 

[illmatic99]

This is awful basketball

 

[blazerfan11]

Can the Blazer Broadcasting crew please just show the damn game?

Stop with the replays during live play.

 

[Cugel]

This is awful basketball

No it’s god awful

 

[wizenheimer]

Deni's ball security has been terrible lately. 5 turnovers so far

 

[blazerfan11]

Banton isn't needed as a point guard. Put someone else in there.

 

[wizenheimer]

Banton isn't needed as a point guard. Put someone else in there.

he should chuck 15 three's in the 2nd half

 

[Mediocre Man]

Banton isn't needed as a point guard. Put someone else in there.

He’s perfect.

They need to sit Sharpe

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Kris Murray.....what the hell dude. He's not an NBA player if he continues shooting 25% from 3.

I was thinking they should play him at least 20 minutes in the second half to ensure the proper outcome.

 

[HailBlazers]

Great game.

 

[Cugel]

Deni messed around and got a triple double…
Looking that way ain’t it

 

[wizenheimer]

Mogbo has been worth about a dozen points for the Blazers. BBIQ of -17

 

[B-Roy]

Kris Murray. GOD.

 

[illmatic99]

shaedon is finishing at an insane level
