Game Thread 2024-25 PRESEASON - BLAZERS @ KINGS - OCTOBER 13, 2024 - SUNDAY - 3:00 PM PST - NBA LP, Blazervision

[Chris Craig]

Sabonis having a 'mare

He met Duop Death

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Jabari 2 for 2 from 3

 

[Blazinaway]

does Rupert look quicker? seems he may be growing into his body a bit, he looked slow to me last year

 

[SheedSoNasty]

If the Blazers win does Chauncey get credit for his first preseason victory against an NBA team? Probably not, right?

 

[Rastapopoulos]

DeMar Derozan is currently -27!

He better not! Nate-the-Great FTW

 

[Rastapopoulos]

He certainly looks BETTER

 

[HailBlazers]

Went for a hike in this nice weather. How did we get up by 20 in the 3rd?

 

[Chris Craig]

Lol

No

 

[julius]

Scoot looking a lot better. Still is shooting bad.

Kings havin an awful game, 21 or 22 TO's, Blazers capitalized "so far"

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Minaya, McGowens and Moore (the three Ms) have to be wondering what has to happen for them to get some minutes

 

[Chris Craig]

Up 29!

 

[Chris Craig]

Up 31!

 

[Chris Craig]

Up 33!

 

[Blazinaway]

Klingon dunk fest!

 

[Rastapopoulos]

My stream just died. Like the Kings.

They will be playing in about three minutes

 

[SheedSoNasty]

Soak it up! We’re not winning like this in the regular season. Good to see the young guys hooping.

my audio went to hell which is ok by me

 

[julius]

I feel this is going to be how a lot of the season goes.

No, not blowout wins, but segments of play where you're like "WTF? why isn't this the norm!?!?"

Good game so far. Like I said, Scoot looks better, but his shot is still a WIP.

just enjoyable getting ANY win and see a guy like Klingon play well

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Clingan makes Len look nimble, so how is it that Clingan is so good? If you combined Clingan's D with Boban's O you'd have Embiid in slo-mo

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Boxscore has Scoot with only one TO - I swear I saw at least 3

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Rayan and Jabari both +27. That HAS to be a first

 

[Blazinaway]

he often is in the right position, is a big body with long arms and is pretty coordinated if slowish, high BB I

Sounds like our defense' having a great game.

 

[Blazinaway]

Sounds like our defense' having a great game.

ya know our half court D was not bad, at one pt in the 1st half they had 17 fast break pts and our transition D was just awful, they also have missed a lot of shots
