Game Thread Blazers vs OKC Tuesday July 28th, 3pm PST NBCSNW

[B-Roy]

Jesus Ant just oozes talent...

 

[B-Roy]

Nurk on defense is everywhere.

 

[Chris Craig]

Nurk three!!!

 

[blazedanugz]

Nurk is our second best player and I don’t think it’s close

 

[B-Roy]

Bench players and making the wrong play. Name a more iconic duo.

 

[Chris Craig]

8-0 okc run...wtf?

 

[BlazerBeav]

Clear this lineup has never played together.

 

[James lamphear]

Sloppy already 5 turnovers need to clean that up.

I think that is what this scrimmage is for. Seems like a couple are with Nurk and him thinking a player is cutting and they are not on the same page. Hopefully some of those will disappear as they play more together.

 

[Labinot41]

Can i say instead of "we got shooters" "we have shooters"?? What is the difference between have and got?

 

[AldoTrapani]

Melo is garbage

 

[Mediocre Man]

 

[Labinot41]

I can't stand the player Anfernee Simons. He does one good thing and then makes 3 bad plays in a row

 

[AldoTrapani]

Our team is not good guys

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Nurk is our second best player and I don’t think it’s close

Hot take: He's our best player.

 

[Chris Craig]

Hot take: He's our best player.

Dame?

 

[Chris Craig]

That was a two

 

[blazedanugz]

I forgot how much of a joke whiteside is

 

[BlazerBeav]

Our team is not good guys

Half of our salary cap belongs to the two guys sitting out today's game.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Yes SIMONS; just like Dame with the step to the side.

 

[James lamphear]

We are shooting better at the 3 but we still getting kill by 3

 

[Chris Craig]

Half of our salary cap belongs to the two guys sitting out today's game.

More than half

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Dame?

Dame is awesome. And Nurk does it all..

 

[Hoopguru]

ZMan the DMan

 

[Chris Craig]

Simons must have read the forum after the last two scrimmages

 

[James lamphear]

Simons already 15 points good job youngster.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

This is what Neil Olshey is talking about. I just think Simons isn't a bench player. He needs starter minutes to get comfy out there.

 

[GrandpaBlaze]

Simons reminds me of CJ - give him a lot of time and touches without needing to defer and he can score well. Still not very good at getting others involved but he can score.

 

[BlazerBeav]

This is what Neil Olshey is talking about. I just think Simons isn't a bench player. He needs starter minutes to get comfy out there.

Well he's not getting starter minutes in a real game - gonna have to figure it out off the bench.

Problem is, he can shine but it doesn't seem the whole team shines with him. He needs to learn how to play within the team structure as compared to the team playing within the Ant structure.
