Hood is a shell.

Yeeesh

Hood is a shell.

Yeeesh

Hard to come back with that injury

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

The plus/minus figures support the eye test, Melo minus 17, Jones plus 7. Jones should play at least 30 minutes a game.

 

[B-Roy]

Gary, CJ and Dame are the only players with an assist this game.

 

[BonesJones]

The Blazers were 31 points better that half with Carmelo off the floor

 

[James lamphear]

Nurk is not the same player then he was before his broken leg. Yes he might be a little out of shape but there no lift at all. There no contesting shots in there at all.

 

[tester551]

Harden gets traded and CJ returns to CJ lol

Neil told him that he was on the trade block for Harden... Now that he feels safe - he go back to 'normal'

 

[DDolla]

Watch him hit the game winner

I think Quick should ask Stotts about that.

 

[Scalma]

Does Portland need hoods permission to trade him

Hate to break it to you, but Nurk never really had lift lol.

I was confused on that last play. All I ever hear in here is that GTT doesn't pass.

Well he averages 1.3 assists per 36 mins. Third worst on team behind Kanter and Jones. So yeah , the dude doesn’t pass much

 

[B-Roy]

Does Portland need hoods permission to trade him

I believe so.

 

[B-Roy]

I think Quick should ask Stotts about that.

he’s just going to cite the previous game and that will be the end of the question

Come on Jones he not the only one out there plus he did make couple good defense play out there. Yes maybe he shouldn't with Kanter or Hood because Hood has shown me less then Melo.

I'm just stating a fact Lamphear.

At least TRY another line up for more than five minutes.

 

[B-Roy]

Dame and CJ are balling. 40 points and no turnovers and were still down.

you need defensive players

 

[bobf]

Nice Dame save 3 points.

 

[bobf]

Oh crap

 

[AldoTrapani]

Why do coaches ever challenge anything before the 4th quarter? Unless of course an important player is in foul trouble? Is Heild in foul trouble?

 

[Sheldon Shape]

I wish we had a coach who made the effort in utilizing Derrick Jones Jr.

He's awesome. Poor guy is scared to even cut down the baseline.

 

[illmatic99]

nurk isn't providing any rim protection this yr. tough for him to show and recover, guards need to do a better job of fighting thru picks so it at least gives Nurk some time to come back into the paint.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Reviewing it but looked set. Yield only ran into his shoulder by adjusting but think that’s still a charge...

 

[James lamphear]

I'm just staying a fact Lamphear.

What fact that you target Melo on his play and nobody else in that lineup. Way I look enough play any D in that unit and thats the real facts.

To generate 3 points.

I'm not the only one who targets Melo, our opposition does too. Blame them.

 

[AldoTrapani]

To generate 3 points.

I guess I’d save it for important times

 

[calvin natt]

Reality:

Hood is probably around 60%
Nurkic is around 70%
Covington isn’t comfortable yet

If those three things get better they will be markedly improved going down the stretch

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Fucking whistle parade
