Still bites my ass how close we were to victor Wembanyamania in 2023 draft. That was such a tease and the Spurs once again luck out. Can you imagine if we actually had got him in the draft. Blazer heaven.

All the blazers had to do was lose that last game they played against them that season. They would have switched spots on the lottery seeding.

 

[BBert]

I'll take that bet for $1!! Who wants a piece?!

Sorry. No one strategically out tanks the Spurs.

 

[kjironman1]

My hopes are high but expectations are very low. This series looks like a sweep on paper. Let’s hope they can play well.

[BigGameDamian]

Should be a hell of a series to say the least!

 

[BBert]

Those colors are atrocious. Are we playing the Hornets?

 

[SlyPokerDog]

LET'S DO THIS!

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

This court is hideous.

 

[BBert]

Wembanyama looks three inches taller than Clingan on the tipoff

 

[Chris Craig]

They just let Wembanyama land hard on Deni no call. Sobs

 

[BBert]

FFS. Not a foul?

 

[Labinot41]

Go Blazers

 

[BBert]

If that's how this game gets called we really are fucked

 

[BBert]

Forget the getting tough with Wemby strategy. Refs are going to wrap him in Charmin

 

[Chris Craig]

These refs are corrupt as shit

 

[riverman]

Toumani is getting right into Wemby

 

[julius]

It seems that Victor can fall into and onto players and not get any calls against him.

 

[Irish Trader]

We are showing we won’t be pushed around or intimidated nice

 

[Freshtown]

Our lack of shooting really kills us in playoff settings

 

[Blazinaway]

Like the fast pace we are playing

 

[Ripcity4life77]

We are only a few minutes into the game and were already going to play the ref card -- are you fucking serious ? If the refs are already a factor then the game is over and it's not so wait at least until 2nd quarter before playing the refs are screwing the Blazers over stuff.

 

[wizenheimer]

I have an observation....this is fun I haven't had for 5 years....at least watching basketball. Thanksgiving with the in-laws was cancelled 6 months ago....that was heaven

 

[blazerfan11]

What is this BullShit of Wemby falling on our players??? Someone needs to fall on his Highness in return.

 

[BBert]

Yes. If we breath on Wemby we'll get called.

 

[JDC]

These screens Castle is setting are an absolute joke

 

[Irish Trader]

Wenby unbelievable freak of nature in his abilities

 

[Ripcity4life77]

Blaming the refs already -- breaking fucking news

We are MASSIVE underdogs that will be lucky to get ONE win and I hate to say this but the truth is the truth I just want to see players like DC , Deni and such show they can play in the playoffs and not disappear and of course get experience.

 

[kjironman1]

You gotta give Wemby credit. That dude is crazy talented and a lot of fun to watch.
