It's not my fault nobody put in the effort. I'm at work. I can only post so much!

I covered the pictures bro.

 

[kjironman1]

Wait... Whatd you do with KJ?!

The truth is the truth Bones. They need to play better. They have a chance to do something special and i know you see it. I don't even care if they lose? I just want to see a solid attempt to compete.

 

[Scalma]

at least Mickey keeps his eyes open

No I 100% agree with you.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

I think Schroeder starts with SGA and CP3. Apparently, when those 3 plus Gallo & Adams are on the floor, they're one of the best teams ever. Can't remember the exact stats that back that up but I read it somewhere.

 

[Orion Bailey]

Dont totally agree...There is tinkering going on with rotations and it isn't wise especially in this environment, to show all your schemes during practice games that are being televised. They purposely are not showing all their cards (sets).

I mean, Stotts has literally confirmed that, so yeah, I don’t know what takeaways you can really have from these scrimmages outside of how guys look individually.

But you guys dont think the other teams are doing the same things? Mangy of them have a player or two who was out but now back in as well?

I do find it odd when people think that we should have some vast improvement from preseason to regular season based on us playing better or tinkering with lineups as if no other team is doing this and has the same potential to be better once the season starts/resumes.

sometimes it feels like people think our scrimmage squad is facing thier solid and steady lineup and we are the only team of the two on the court that can see improvements once the season begins.

 

[THE HCP]

No CJ as well.

I agree that other teams are doing the same.
If they thought that the teams were ready after 2 weeks of practices they would have gone straight to the 8 games.

 

[Eastoff]

No CJ as well.

They are resting Damian and CJ?

 

[tlongII]

Blazers game at 3 followed by the Timbers at 7:30. Life is good.

 

[Eastoff]

 

[DDolla]

No Dame and CJ today smh. How can you build back that chemistry if they keep resting? We are the 9th seed and our season started 2 games ago....C’mon Stotts.

Disagree. Dame and CJ don't need to play in exhibition games.

 

[Scalma]

good.

 

[James lamphear]

Anybody know why Zach Whiteside Nas is limited?

 

[THE HCP]

No CP3

 

[THE HCP]

Anybody know why Zach Whiteside Nas is limited?

Cause the game don't count FAMS!

 

[Eastoff]

Anybody know why Zach Whiteside Nas is limited?

Nas just coming back from concussion, Whiteside had some Achilles soreness before. I have no guess for Zach

 

[Chris Craig]

Shit

 

[Chris Craig]

Blazers at home

 

[AldoTrapani]

Melo stop fucking shooting those!! You should be a catch and shoot only player right now in your career period

 

[B-Roy]

The fake fans look so weird.

 

[AldoTrapani]

God I love GTJ makes up for Simons sucking so bad

 

[AldoTrapani]

Melo stop fucking shooting those!! You should be a catch and shoot only player right now in your career period

Again Melo stop!!!

 

[BlazerBeav]

Collins gets smacked in the face by Adams - foul on Collins.

 

[James lamphear]

Right now pretty sloppy and to see Zach hitting that 3.

 

[twobullz]

I Like how the bigs are all able to switch off on Adams and not giving up to much.

 

[Chris Craig]

Good defense early for Portland.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Long ways to go with Ant - but I do like when he gets the chance to dunk.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

SIMONS
