Blazers @ Pistons Game Thread

[jlprk]

Out of habit, Patty didn't even jump in the jump ball against another 6-0 guy, Bynum. Bynum skyed, yet the Blazers got the ball.

 

[VenomXL]

No way! A foul on Detroit.

 

[VenomXL]

Wow.

Come the fuck on guys.

 

[craigehlo]

Matthews looks like he's trying to throw the game.

 

[VenomXL]

Back to back turnovers.

 

[EGame]

Batum is an average offensive player. Kind of sad.

 

[VenomXL]

We are getting thrashed by Wilcox.

 

[Darkwebs]

Wake up, Blazers. It's crunch time

 

[VenomXL]

Batum is an average offensive player. Kind of sad.

Over-react much?

He's having a bad shooting night, that's for sure.

 

[craigehlo]

Batum 1-5 from 3. Maybe we should go to LA instead?

 

[illmatic99]

Can't hit shots.

 

[illmatic99]

Batum 1-5 from 3. Maybe we should go to LA instead?

We are, genius. It's called double teaming, and passing to the open man.

Nic HAS to shoot that.

 

[EGame]

Over-react much?

He's having a bad shooting night, that's for sure.

No not really. He is merely average. Good defender and plays smart, but with his limited handles and his streaky shooting (like Mathews and Rudy) makes him just average.

 

[Darkwebs]

WTF was that, Dre?

 

[VenomXL]

What the hell was that Andre?

 

[B-Roy]

Andre has 7 turnovers...

 

[craigehlo]

We are, genius. It's called double teaming, and passing to the open man.

Nic HAS to shoot that.

Rudy had it wide open as well. He made the extra pass to Batum who can't throw it in the ocean. They went to LA the next possession and went right to the free throw line.

 

[tlongII]

We are a horrible road team. Our shooting deserts us and we can't beat anybody.

 

[VenomXL]

No not really. He is merely average. Good defender and plays smart, but with his limited handles and his streaky shooting (like Mathews and Rudy) makes him just average.

OK, then why is that sad? It's not like he's supposed to be our number one option on offense.

 

[B-Roy]

Rudy had it wide open as well. He made the extra pass to Batum who can't throw it in the ocean. They went to LA the next possession and went right to the free throw line.

Rudy is 0-5 from deep...

Batum makes Matthews look like Chris Paul in the handles department.

 

[illmatic99]

Rudy had it wide open as well. He made the extra pass to Batum who can't throw it in the ocean. They went to LA the next possession and went right to the free throw line.

The next time, LA was not double teamed. Rudy is 0-5 from three. I have no problem with Batum shooting that. In fact, I want him to continue doing so.

 

[VenomXL]

41 points for the Detroit bench tonight. That must be nice.

 

[craigehlo]

Rudy is 0-5 from deep...

But he was more open. There was a defender closing out on Batum on said possession.

 

[illmatic99]

I can't believe they're playing Taylor Swift in the arena.

It's Detroit damnit. WTF.

 

[craigehlo]

The Pistons are trying to give the Blazers the game now. Losing this will hurt.

 

[VenomXL]

T that fool up.

 

[Darkwebs]

Huge block by LMA. Momentum changing

 

[VenomXL]

I can't believe they're playing Taylor Swift in the arena.

It's Detroit damnit. WTF.

The Pistons used to have one of the best in-arena experiences.

 

[VenomXL]

Wes can't drop a layup now.
