BLAZERS @ NUGGETS - GAME THREAD - 11/01/2013, FRIDAY, 6PM - CSN

Brian Shaw wondering how the hell George Karl did it...

Let's not overrate Karl here. He had far better players on his team last year.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Damn straight!!!! Aldridge telling hickson why he's gone

Yeah Hickson is stupid. He should have waited until after the game to vent

Denver could fall out of playoff contention. Karl has always been pro at good reg season records

 

[Strenuus]

So, Mags... NIN tonight or this very satisfying win?

 

[illmatic99]

Solid win. Let's not get too ahead of ourselves with the win though. Our ridiculous outside shooting played a huge role tonight and it won't be there every night.

 

[Natebishop3]

Pretty funny though..... Batum owned the first quarter, Dame owned the second quarter, Wes owned the third quarter, and Aldridge closed it down in the 4th. Tons of balance.

I'm glad hickson is stupid!!!! Aldridge and Lopez took offense

LMA really closed the door tonite!

That's what needs to happen, but I'd like dame and Aldridge closing the 3rd and 4th

 

[KingSpeed]

I believe that is Aldridge's first win Denver. He didn't play the last time we won.

My boy!!!!

Truth. IIRC, Channing stepped up and had a big night in his place.

having more talent sure helped.

 

[magnifier661]

Can someone give me the line of Aldridge vs hickson? I want Lopez too

 

[oldmangrouch]

Nice to see a more balanced effort tonight. Nic and Wes stepped up and gave Dame/LMA some support.

Still not sold on the bench.

Lopez is a big disappointment.

 

[LuckyShot]

Really happy about the win, but seriously, getting outscored 50-32 in the paint isn't a good sign.

 

[KingSpeed]

LookIng at the numbers, we shot terribly on 2 point shots. 30 out of 81!

 

[B-Roy]

Solid win. Let's not get too ahead of ourselves with the win though. Our ridiculous outside shooting played a huge role tonight and it won't be there every night.

This team is built to be a really good outside shooting team.

 

[Strenuus]

Yep, remember, temper the expetations a tad bit. Our outside scoring was crazy. It won't be there every time.

We still gotta control the paint.

 

[crowTrobot]

LookIng at the numbers, we shot terribly on 2 point shots. 30 out of 81!

Lopez, Robinson, & Freeland were combined 3-18. These guys need to learn how to dunk.

 

[KingSpeed]

In PER36, Myers is grabbing 72 rebounds per game

 

[MarAzul]

Shooting 64% with the three ball is scary. They may learn to like it.

 

[mgb]

For some reason I feel so much better than I did Wednesday night.

Just wait until LA steps out there.

 

[The_Lillard_King]

LAL v SA is close going into half. here is hoping for a close game . . . that goes into triple OT

 

[HailBlazers]

Just wait until LA steps out there.

See what Kevin Love did tonight and you just might want him too

 

[The_Lillard_King]

Blazers haven't even unveiled their secret 3 pt shooter . . . Meyers Leonard

 

[magnifier661]

Whoohoo we had 55 rebounds!

 

[magnifier661]

See what Kevin Love did tonight and you just might want him too

No i would rather him dominate the low block. We have plenty of three point shooters

I would like to see a few of those LA perimeter shots moved back a couple of feet if he's going to keep taking them. Might as well go for the extra point if he's not going inside. At the same time, though, he can forego a couple of those shots and get down low on the block. It's gotta be balanced.
