Get that shit out of here, says Time Lord.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Robert looking better every day!

 

[blazerfan11]

I have never seen that, did the announcers say...did that come from NBA central?

Yes, It was over-ruled by HQ to the correct call, said Travis Demers.

 

[blazerkor]

Wow! That quarter was all action.

 

[Irish Trader]

With everyone healthy I do believe this is the most talent the Blazers have had in years.

 

[Cugel]

Nice quarter. Good rebounding and passing. Still some annoying turnovers to be ironed out

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Sloppy

 

[Everything Beagle]

Deni is currently on pace to score 60. Sure hope he doesn’t have to.

 

[Irish Trader]

Has anyone ever seen scoot Henderson on the bench. Always seems to be missing. I hardly if ever see him on camera

Yeah I’ve seen him plenty of times on the bench

 

[Cugel]

See him all the time.

[Irish Trader]

Sharp is having a bad first half. He is forcing his shots

 

[blazerfan11]

2-for-1 just for the sake of it, it's stupid.
The Blazers scored zero on two lazy shots, while Miami scored at the hoop.

 

[blazerfan11]

Caleb Love's decision making is pretty impressive compared to some of his teammates.
He seems more under control than Holiday at this point in the season.

 

[Irish Trader]

Love is definitely a keeper makes scoot trade bait

 

[MickZagger]

Sharp is having a bad first half. He is forcing his shots

They’re blitzing him with a second defender any time they see he’s about to drive. Hopefully he adjusts in the 2nd half

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I couldn't tell who stood up first but Clingan and Adebayo came in the game at the same time. Is Spoelstra trying to keep that matchup? Should Portland be trying to get Williams in against Adebayo?

All the time. I always wonder who picks out his clothes

Definitely more under control than Deni tonight.

I think your observation is correct. Coach should try counter that as much as possible

 

[PCmor7]

A foot of snow hitting Boson while we are there. Hope we even get to DC FAMS!

That's now a very conservative estimate.

They're telling people in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic areas not to travel Saturday night or Sunday unless it's an emergency.

 

[blazerkor]

Yeah, looking for Shae to have a much better second half.

 

[PCmor7]

All the time. Usually talking and cheering and always smiling.

 

[blazerfan11]

The Warriors lost again.
To Dallas.
2 games ahead of the Blazers.

 

[THE HCP]

Has anyone ever seen scoot Henderson on the bench. Always seems to be missing. I hardly if ever see him on camera

he’s there every game.

Good question.

Edit: Adebayo is their leading scorer so it has to be something the coach is thinking about.

 

[PCmor7]

Yeah, looking for Shae to have a much better second half.

I hope he can have at least four points and fewer than four turnovers.

The Heat play smart. Shaedon struggles with that. He gets frustrated and takes it as a personal challenge. He dribbles too much. The ball sticks with him. Then he usually settles for a 3 after all the dribbling because they help so well on defense and he can't get into the paint.

His one bucket was a quick shot off the catch. Would like to see him get it, give it up, relocate and get it back a couple of times. I think it would open the game up for him. Right now, the Heat are making him play their game.

 

[blazerkor]

We need to play with the same level of energy in this second half as we did in the first half but play with a lot more focus on both ends. Less turnovers, less stupid fouls.

Need to be less nonchalant with the ball, too. We had several turnovers that were just a matter of thinking we were playing teams that play normal defense and not the Heat.
