Game Thread 2025-26 GAME #29 - BLAZERS VS PISTONS - DECEMBER 22, 2025 - MONDAY - 7:00 PM - KUNP - BLAZERVISION

[Ripcity4life77]

Why are some of you acting like we had a chance in this game and getting down on the Blazers ? The Pistons are a Top 10 team in the league and right now without Jrue and others were barely around 20 to 25 since the guys out kind of fill in the holes that teams like the Pistons expose and we get these type of games. Also does not help the Blazers look at the refs expecting them to get bailed out like every fucking time and then mope a little when they do not get a call ( and that is on the coaching staff to stop that BS )

We are playing right where I'd expect us to with so many guys out.

It certainly doesn't help that we are wasting time with the refs. Guys gotta concentrate on the game. Refs are gonna ref.

 

[Ripcity4life77]

Do not get me wrong this team should still hustle and make free throws and the basics etc and they have made a lot of basic stupid mistakes but look at this roster right now. As much as injuries have hurt this team the Blazers are not built for anything other then rocking the boat and making life difficult for teams looking at the playoffs and seeding later down the road in the season.

 

[Cugel]

Cidy is getting to the line. Impressive. no refs giving him any freebies

 

[Ripcity4life77]

I got an idea shove a player down right in front of the ref and then whine when they call a foul on ya -- ROFL

He might have been right in terms of the other player was grabbing his jersey and such but DAMN use some fucking common sense.

 

[Chris Craig]

Come on Blazers!

 

[blazerkor]

Wow! Great effort to get us back in this game against the best team in the East.

 

[Everything Beagle]

ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?

 

[Irish Trader]

Holy crap we have a shot who would have thunk it

 

[Ripcity4life77]

This team's ball handling is average at best under pressure and the Kings exposed it the last 2 games and now other teams are using that plan to a T.

WTF make your damn FT's

 

[Everything Beagle]

OH COME ON

 

[Irish Trader]

Well that was a hell of a tease

 

[julius]

Deni is throwing the game!

 

[blazerkor]

Why the fuck did Detroit get a new shot clock? The didn't hit the rim. They should have had whatever they had on the shot clock at that whistle. The refs fucked us on that play every way they could.

 

[Ripcity4life77]

WTF is this team doing

they are down by 7 and they take there time taking that 3 -- no sense of urgency from them.

I am sorry but I am starting to think something stinks coaching ( ALL coaches ) wise on this team and/or the IQ of the players on this team is so damn low it's not funny or combo on both things.

 

[MickZagger]

Can’t successfully come back if you don’t make free throws. And the garbage officiating hasn’t helped.

 

[Ripcity4life77]

Stop blaming the fucking refs cause at some point you just have to put your head down and accept it and work around it. -- PERIOD

 

[blazerkor]

Rebounds, free throws, turnovers.

Our guys showed the hustle needed but we just ran out of gas.

I'm happy that the team didn't give up and let this turn into a blow out.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

 

[Chris Craig]

Glad the Blazers tried to make it a game. They are their own worst enemy though. So many grade school level mistakes and missed free throws.

 

[B-Roy]

29/43 from the line. Allow 22 offensive rebounds

 

[Ripcity4life77]

The last Blazer play pretty much summed up this game cause if you make silly mistakes ( turnovers ) and cannot make your FT's then guess what ... your not going to win specially against top teams in the league.

 

[blazerkor]

You can say that all you want but that was a pivotal play in the game where they called a foul on our guy, it had to be overturned, we had imminent possession, they made it a jump ball and then for whatever fucking reason they gave them a fresh 24 seconds on the shot clock.

I'm not asking for calls to go our way but don't fuck us every which way you can if you're the refs.

 

[Cugel]

18 turnovers. Shae turned it over too much

 

[blazerkor]

18 turnovers. Shae turned it over too much

Yeah, way too sloppy. Not necessarily a lack of effort but the turnovers, some crucial offensive rebounds that we gave up after great stops and missing free throws cost us this one.

 

[blazerkor]

18 turnovers. Shae turned it over too much

Also sadly that's just one over our league high average.

 

[wizenheimer]

Why the fuck did Detroit get a new shot clock? The didn't hit the rim. They should have had whatever they had on the shot clock at that whistle. The refs fucked us on that play every way they could.

they ruled there was no imminent possession after the reversed call. Pretty sure by rule that's a new 24 second clock for whichever team won the jump

it could be, that when the officials watched the replay, they saw that Deni fouled Harris about 3 times before the shot, just not the foul they called. So they balanced a bit by their possession ruling

 

[Ripcity4life77]

Well I am calling it a night but cya all for tomorrow's game vs. the Magic

I hope they figure out how to correct at least 50% of the stupid shit from tonight or it's going to be another long annoying evening with the same result.
