Damn. There are whole games they had about the same number of points. Anyone know what Blazers record is for points in a half?

 

[Cugel]

close

I was afraid Deni might not have a good game after POW. Trying too hard to top it. So far he is topping it.

Think DC isn't gnashing their teeth over that trade?

more like crying themselves to sleep every night

 

[BBert]

Not a terrible first half.

The internet says it was 85 points on February 2nd 1992. It also mentions an 84 point half in 2014.

 

[BlazerBeav]

That was a fun first half! Deni is so good. Shaedon playing great. DC continuing to put up numbers. Ball movement to open shooters has been fantastic.

 

[BBert]

I'm disappointed in the first half. I wanted to see some hard banging and heated exchanges down low.

(Shut your dirty-minded mouths you cretins.)

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Deni's speed blows me away sometimes

He reminds me a bit of Leandro Barbosa. Some players can be fast without the ball, but not with the ball, but Barbosa and Deni seem to be faster with the ball than without. And they just don't slow down, even when sane humans would

Kevin love wearing his LO letterman’s jacket on the bench. Didn’t realize he was with the Jazz or even playing anymore

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Did I imagine that Sidy move that ended in a step back middy? I think there was a behind the back dribble in there somewhere. It just came out of nowhere. Anyway, our two-way players are playing better than most rotation players. (Although check out the team the Nuggets rolled out today - I literally had to look Jalen Pickett up.)

 

[Everything Beagle]

What a half! The guys are playing like worldbeaters. God i wish we had Jrue back. We’d be so good omg

 

[BlazerBeav]

I am having a very good time!

 

[riverman]

Kris Murray is the perfect garbage man...3 steals ..with Clingan he anchors the post

 

[blazerkor]

I was thinking at halftime that if we could push this lead out to 30 it would take more than one run for the Jazz to get back in it. Now our starters just need to keep the hammer down until the end of the third and we could have a fourth quarter of garbage time.

 

[riverman]

Deni is a Maestro!

 

[Chris Craig]

He started last game

 

[BBert]

Move over Rip City.

Lob City has joined the chat.

 

[blazerkor]

Well we didn't keep the starters in and somehow everything got sloppy. The lead went from 30 to 23 but we still have some cushion but we can't rest on it.

Yeah, I'm having difficulty not getting a little over excited picturing this starting unit with Jrue instead of Murray, and then Scoot coming off the bench.

 

[BBert]

Murray can do that. Wish he would do it more.

 

[Quatro44]

Seems like that timeout got things back under control

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Sharpe looking like a freaking superstar tonight

 

[BBert]

Who knows the Blazers scoring record for the first three quarters?

 

[BBert]

This probably isn't it. Just curious. But lazy.

 

[Quatro44]

SHARPE!!!

 

[BBert]

Shaedon Sharpe: "Hold my beer."

 

[42N8Bounce]

Splitter better wait until Deni gets his triple-double before pulling him for the game.

I want to see a 40 point tripple-double!!

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Shaedon Sharpe: "Hold my beer."

Non-alcoholic beer, apparently, with as much as Calabro has been talking about them...

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Any predictions for the amount of time left when Tiago empties the bench?

I'm guessing about 7:30

 

[riverman]

We emptied the bench in the first qtr..
