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

[BlazerBeav]

Credit to him, Ant is all over the place today.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Simons is the best player in the NBA

 

[AldoTrapani]

Man Whiteside can’t block anything anymore

 

[Cugel]

Ant is bringing it.

 

[Titan]

giving up threes i see

 

[James lamphear]

Nurk struggling little bit and Adam turnovering the ball to much.

 

[Chris Craig]

Stotts hasn't changed. Still waiting till we are down double digits to call timeout

 

[Labinot41]

Melo is horrible

 

[AldoTrapani]

Melo you really need to just be a stand and shoot on the catch player right now in your career

 

[KSF-ERIC]

oh my Nurk fakes 3 and then the dunk???

 

[AldoTrapani]

Melo is horrible

He’s garbage

 

[twobullz]

Why oh why can't we have a vet on our bench once in a while.

 

[GrandpaBlaze]

Most disappointing players (thus far today): Whiteside, Melo. The vets.

 

[Titan]

why do we have to have these bad quarters

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Carmelo HOF Anthony!

 

[B-Roy]

why do we have to have these bad quarters

Because we have a lot of bad players playing a lot of minutes.

 

[Chris Craig]

Terrible 1st half. Not looking forward to the third. Blazers got destroyed in both third quarters so far

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Why oh why can't we have a vet on our bench once in a while.

Pau Gasol and Trevor Ariza would've been nice.

 

[James lamphear]

Still getting hurt by the 3 but they made on 1 more then we did.

 

[James lamphear]

The big factor was we had 12 turnovers.

 

[James lamphear]

Simons look good and Zach had strong half on offense.

 

[tykendo]

The good: Ant finally found his game. He looked like a totally different player than the one we've been watching in the 1st two scrimmages. Bad: Too many open 3's for OKC. Thought Nurk & Zach's interior defense was poor in the latter part of the 2nd qtr. Adams getting off floor and just easing to the hoop was brutal, and Schroeder's last 2 drives past both were awful. Where was the block party? Nurk looked tired. But I hope this is the beginning of an awakening for Anfernee.

 

[rotary111]

It's good to see Zach and Ant hitting some 3's.

 

[James lamphear]

They had 8 points from free throws. Only free throws we had was off a T.

 

[tykendo]

The most important thing that i'd love to see in this second half is for our defenders to smother the 3 pt. line. No open looks please.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

When we have two bigs in the game, shouldn't our bigs get closer to their three point shooters; if they drive past, he should have help.

 

[Titan]

Because we have a lot of bad players playing a lot of minutes.

Trade them all I guess

 

[KSF-ERIC]

what happened to 10 minutes quarters?

 

[AldoTrapani]

Man thunder are so much better than last year. They don’t even have Chris Paul playing

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Luckily, we won't play them again.
