Game Thread 2025-26 GAME #81 - BLAZERS VS CLIPPERS - APRIL 10, 2026 - FRIDAY - 7:00 PM - KUNP - BLAZERVISION (6 Viewers)

[Everything Beagle]

I love that Donovan Clingan seems forever amused that centers shoot threes in the NBA

Seriously like a kid in a candy store

 

[Everything Beagle]

Don’t look now but here comes LA

 

[crandc]

Shit. Starting to rush shots again.

 

[MickZagger]

Where Dundon sitting?

 

[crandc]

Terrible pass

 

[Cugel]

Falling apart.

 

[Everything Beagle]

Falling apart.

I’m glad it’s now rather than beginning of the third. Tiago can make a better case for the team to lock in.

 

[Chris Craig]

Don't like the Clippers run to finish the half. I'll take a 10 point lead at half though anyday.

 

[Irish Trader]

We got sloppy the last 2 and 1/2 minutes of the quarter

 

[Chris Craig]

Where Dundon sitting?

Up Tiago's ass.

 

[blazerfan11]

Clingan is the best 3-point shooter on the floor so far. He's shooting them with confidence. One of them was like a dart throw.
Hope they keep going to him.

 

[Cugel]

Any news on MT?

Something i learned on Clippers' broadcast: Blazers are 4th in the league at creating wide open 3s. Maybe we should get somebody on the team who is really good at making wide open threes?

We're only the best at that because other teams are daring a bunch of our guys to take the threes because we're not efficient from out there.

Clippers got back into the game late in that first half. Going in only down 10 had to feel better to them than what it looked like earlier in the second quarter.

 

[wizenheimer]

I've watched enough NBA games to think that at halftime the officials will definitely notice that the Clippers only shot 4 FT's while the Blazers shot 19

 

[Irish Trader]

Camera, holiday and Deni 1 of 11 from three. We need better in second half to win this game

 

[blazerfan11]

Thybulle Injured?

Haven't said anything on the radio other than he went to the locker room.

Can't wait till Krejci starts draining them for us. For some reason his 3pt shooting is way down with us. Can't wait until he comes back either way because I hope Cissoko doesn't play again when he comes back.

 

[PCmor7]

Fantastic half. Deni's really come to play, and Donovan, too. They have advantages and played to them.

I'm saying it every game, but I really hope they find a way to keep Matisse and Rob Williams. Those two add an element to what this team can do that I think would be really hard to replace. They fit their roles perfectly with the Blazers.

Great to see Shaedon back. It felt so good to see him out there with Scoot running the 1 and the 2.

Scoot had one of the best halves you'll see from a guy with practically no stats. He did all the little things now. Honestly, he should have six assists instead of two; got some bad luck on his teammates' finishes.

Clippers don't really match up well with us, especially with Shae back. Kawhi's a Blazer killer, but they need him to produce like one and need huge games from two out of Garland, Lopez and Collins as well to really have a good chance against the Blazers on a night when everyone's playing about their normal level.

Other than Clingan, who's drilling them.

 

[MickZagger]

Up Tiago's ass.

Cozy!

 

[kjironman1]

This Clingan vs Lopez battle is fun!

It has been really fun watching live. They are very similar players.

 

[crandc]

Shades of Denver.

 

[Chris Craig]

Not looking good

 

[Chris Craig]

Shades of Denver.

Yep.

Not showing up this quarter/half so far

 

[blazerfan11]

Does Avdija know that he is a horrible three-point shooter?

And his current teammates are not?

 

[Sheldon Shape]

Deni not even trying to get back on defense.

 

[blazerfan11]

Avdija is 8-10 on 2-pointers and 0-5 on threes. Ridiculous.
