Fatboi is getting frustrated!

 

[Thatbpguy]

Early, Whiteside making Jokbitch his bitch boy.

 

[trailblazer18]

Foul him out!

 

[Darkwebs]

Foster screwing Portland. Just another day in the NBA

 

[Natebishop3]

That wasn't a foul....

 

[VanillaGorilla]

How is that a foul on Collins? Really

 

[LuckyShot]

What is Denver doing leaving him in right now!?!

Same thing they did in the playoffs. Assuming the refs won't call the foul that sends him to the bench.

 

[riverman]

Holy shit!

 

[The Professional Fan]

Our bench still celebrates like last years bench

 

[Natebishop3]

I have never seen a coach leave a star player in the game with two fouls in the first like that....

 

[LuckyShot]

How is that a foul on Collins? Really

Well you see they hadn't called a foul on us in a while, and they had already called Chokic for 3, so...

 

[PDXFonz]

Man I wanted to draft Whiteside in our league but was beat to it by 3 picks.

This isn’t making me feel better about that.

 

[Jon]

Whiteside is PUMPED!!!

 

[Jade Falcon]

Thank God Preseason Whiteside is not Regular Season Whiteside.

 

[riverman]

What's not to love with this start?

 

[LuckyShot]

I have never seen a coach leave a star player in the game with two fouls in the first like that....

They blatantly, flat out refused to call that 3rd foul on him last year against us. Probably seemed like the right move at the time.

 

[Chris Craig]

Jokic on the bench with 3 fouls, 5 mins in...what is not to love!

 

[riverman]

Zach and Hassan are a hell of a duo

 

[LayneStaley]

I wanna blow these guys out.

 

[42N8Bounce]

Nice start for Whiteside!!
6 points, 7 rebounds, 1 block

and his best stat of all - 3 fouls drawn on Jokic.

Collins and Whiteside are shutting down the paint!!

 

[hoopsjock]

We hedged a pick and recovered! What is this sorcery?

 

[VanillaGorilla]

Zach and Hassan are a hell of a duo

They will struggle with certain teams but they're also gonna cause a helluva lot of problems for others. I'm with it

 

[riverman]

Nice start for Whiteside!!
4 points, 3 rebounds, 1 block

and his best stat of all - 3 fouls drawn on Jokic.

Collins and Whiteside are shutting down the paint!!

It's a thing of beauty....

 

[Darkwebs]

Hassan cleaning the glass better than a squeegee!

 

[LuckyShot]

I wanna blow these guys out.

I want to blow every team out...

 

[riverman]

Our defense is impressive all around with this starting unit

 

[Natebishop3]

That was in front of the circle.

 

[Thatbpguy]

Sweet crossover...

 

[42N8Bounce]

Nice start for Whiteside!!
6 points, 7 rebounds, 1 block

and his best stat of all - 3 fouls drawn on Jokic.

Collins and Whiteside are shutting down the paint!!

 

[maxiep]

Love the last play. Lillard had the better shot, but rewarded Whiteside.
