Game Thread GAME# 10: KINGS @ BLAZERS - NOVEMBER 11, 2016 - FRIDAY, 7:00 PM (PDT), CSNNW

[Darkwebs]

Davis used to be the ultimate garbage man. Nowadays, he's just garbage. Sad to say.

 

[Tunchi]

We fell off this year for some reason

 

[Scalma]

Fuck stotts for taking out layman

 

[julius]

I feel sorry for those synchronized swimmers, they had to swim in the Willamette.

 

[Five Second Violation]

What makes you think any team will want to touch him? Not only because he's had an atrocious season, but he had a rather large contract.

We'd have to take an awful contract back in return. May come down to the lesser of two evils.

 

[Strenuus]

This isn't a playoff team. No rebounding, no defense, no shooters outside of a couple people. Olshey constructed a flawed team.

It's going to be a really fun season, regardless of what happens.

 

[Cippy91]

So...I would like to officially and formally apologize to the basketball karma gods. Oklahoma City and Utah are better teams than Portland is.

Kinda crazy isn't it?

 

[illmatic99]

God we suck

 

[Tunchi]

Yea something happened to him. He's trash this year.

 

[Jade Falcon]

Bah our lack of ability to rebound and lack of physicality in the post are killing us on both the boards and getting us to the line this game.

This. Part of that is on Stotts. These plays at the 3 point line are old and outdated.

 

[Strenuus]

My eyes dont feel sorry!

 

[Tunchi]

Mind you Sac is on a back to back tonight

 

[Strenuus]

Turner with a bucket!

 

[illmatic99]

Out rebounded 41 to 25

 

[Tunchi]

Lillards defense is bad tonight

 

[LuckyShot]

We need to figure out the defensive end. Our offense is scoring enough points, we just don't even seem to care on the defensive end. And we have the athletes to play good defense. It's fucking infuriating to watch shitty defensive effort game after game, and a complete lack of defensive game planning. Stotts needs to hand over the coaching of defense to someone else. I've disagreed with his philosophy from day 1, and it hasn't produced, nor has it changed. IT JUST DOESN'T WORK. /rant

As things stand right now, they aren't a playoff team. They have too few players who can legitimately create their own shot, and too many players who are just passive.

How many times must they get burned on defense before they realize you must actually play defense to win games?

 

[EGame]

It's going to be a really fun season, regardless of what happens.

Because of the doom and gloom posts? Or the growth of certain players?

 

[Sinobas]

Turner was supposed to help our defense, but all he's done is fuck up our offense

 

[Strenuus]

Because of the doom and gloom posts? Or the growth of certain players?

Both.

And the crow eating!

 

[illmatic99]

Dame is going to get ET traded if this keeps up

Being a .500 lotto team would be a lot more palatable if we hadn't given those egregoius contracts.

 

[Strenuus]

Everyone on the blazers would fail if Alec Trebec said "To protect the basket in basketball"

No one knows Interior Defense!

 

[Tunchi]

Wow are we on the back to back or Sac??

 

[EGame]

Dame is going to get ET traded if this keeps up

Another team has to want him first.

[Tunchi]

Damn this team is frustrating as hell.. Idk why they piss me off this hard

 

[LuckyShot]

Another team has to want him first.

Because right now every other team is laughing at us for signing him to that contract.

 

[Cippy91]

That moment when the lakers have it more together right now than the blazers...

 

[LuckyShot]

God damn, Dame.
