Cavs @ Blazers -- GAME THREAD

[PtldPlatypus]

It annoys me that there's no advantage rule in basketball.

Made me go look it up. I agree. But we still got the points, so--y'know.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

ESPN guy just called lebron the "L-Train"

Wasn't that Lionel Simmons?

 

[DUB]

There's only 1 L-Train is this building, and he needs to step it up if we're going to be a chance.

 

[DUB]

Can't hear the commentators over the boos of the crowd.

 

[MARIS61]

That was fugly.

 

[DUB]

Bayless can't hit the broad side of a barn at the moment.

 

[illmatic99]

Announcers doing nothing to disguise their love for LBj.

 

[MARIS61]

Can't play smallball against the Cavs, and unfortunately that's all we've got to work with right now.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Where's Eric and his idiotic "guarantee?"

 

[RoyToy]

Dwight Howard might hang a 30-20 game on the Blazers next Friday

 

[DUB]

We've stopped their fastbreaks, so that's something.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Nah. That would require one of his point guards to actually pass him the ball, The dude is only getting nine FGAs per game this year ... plus we've got Juwan to guard him

 

[illmatic99]

Whatever happened to Aldridge's shot blocking? Dude was a beast coming with the weakside help his rookie year, but has consistently gone away from that ever since.

 

[Nikolokolus]

We've stopped their fastbreaks, so that's something.

LOL. For a team that doesn't fastbreak, I'm not sure what that "something" is though?

 

[KingSpeed]

Right here. Game ain't over. You rooting against the Blazers?

 

[DUB]

They were killing us on fastbreaks early in the game.

 

[gatorpops]

Maybe we will get to see Paddy play at least.

 

[KingSpeed]

Only 4 assists in the quarter, at home.

Not playing as a team.

We're playing as a team and not hitting the shots. 1 of 8 from the three point line is the difference right now.

 

[KingSpeed]

Might be the announcers too. I remember when he went nuts on us right after Wheeler shouted "Webster JAMS it--right in James' face!!" He didn't appear to take to kindly to that, and it's like he's been on a mission ever since.

How did LeBron hear what Wheeler said?

 

[RoyToy]

Andre Miller has a degree in sociology?

Interesting.

 

[KingSpeed]

fucking threes

 

[KingSpeed]

Come on guys. Let's go!

 

[KingSpeed]

Missing close to the basket. Missing far from the basket. Fuck.

 

[KingSpeed]

Shaq's gonna get a triple double. Sheesh.

 

[DUB]

Maybe we will get to see Paddy play at least.

Well no-one else is hitting their shots, so we may as well.

 

[KingSpeed]

Miller to Martell. Lovely.

 

[DUB]

Great pass!

Hopefully we'll start to run some more.

 

[KingSpeed]

one good thing is that none of the non-LeBrons have anything going so if LeBron goes cold....

 

[LameR]

We're playing as a team and not hitting the shots. 1 of 8 from the three point line is the difference right now.

The difference is our (lack of) defense.

 

[KingSpeed]

Whoa. Paul Allen does not look good.
