Game Thread GAME# 12: BULLS @ BLAZERS - NOVEMBER 15, 2016 - TUESDAY, 7:00 PM (PDT), NBATV & CSNNW

Meyers..... I hate that fake self confident demeanor you always have. Please get rid of it. /end rant

 

[julius]

This team might be lucky to win 1 game on this trip, if they continue this horse shit up.

 

[Strenuus]

Time to hit the road and sweep. I'll be at the Nets and Knicks games. They're easy wins for us.

Have we had an easy win this year? Honest question. lol.

 

[julius]

If that wasn't a wakeup call. Man.

They've had at least 5 games that should've constituted a wake up call.

 

[Nikolokolus]

It's fun to toggle ignored content sometimes. If only to have my decision to ignore somebody validated over and over again.

 

[Tunchi]

Times like these I question why we matched Brooklyn. Why we signed turner for another 70 mil. Why did we bring Meyers back? Why did we just spend all our money? Now we are stuck unless good trades are made. These guys we resigned play exactly like guys who got paid and settle for mediocrity. Plumlee just doesn't cut it as a center. So many things wrong, too long to name off

Hindsight 20/20

Nobody knew this team would be bad. If we knew what we know now obviously things would be different

Can we please get rid of him in general?

 

[KingSpeed]

Positives: GREAT games out of Crabbe and Davis. Patty C played alright. Dame and CJ did better than they did against Clippers. We miss Chief so we'll have a couple hiccups. Meyers brought nothing to the table. When is Ezeli going to be ready?

 

[ripcityboy]

Well. The only thing that can come to my mind after seeing that game....

 

[Tunchi]

Losing by 25 at home. Ouch.


Never lead in the game.

Yup. Mind you Kings almost blew us out too but we had to do the most for that win

He was riding that fake confidence shit hard when lamarcus left. It was laughable, still is

The ONLY positive:
We don't have to see Meyers Leonard's dumbass hair or Plumlee's broken jumper for 48 hours!

 

[LuckyShot]

7-5. Not bad. Better than last year. Tough loss. Time to hit the road.

I'm ok with the record. I'm ok with a tough loss. I'm never ok with that type of effort though, especially at home. I'd be pissed if I had paid money for tickets to that game tonight. PISSED. Like never want to buy tickets again pissed. That was a god damned joke of a basketball game.

 

[illmatic99]

This game was just a revelation of what this team would look like if Dame doesn't put up superhuman efforts nightly. This is his first true dud performance of the season in 12 games, and the team just crumbled around him.

Sometimes the road is easier to get up for, here's to hoping it gets em going.

Ha. I was referencing that in the first quarter I think.

 

[KingSpeed]

How did the Kings almost blow us out? We beat them.

 

[Tunchi]

Man the season just started and we've been blown out how many times now?

 

[illmatic99]

They've had at least 5 games that should've constituted a wake up call.

I hit the snooze button at least 3 times and 3 separate alarms before I wake my lazy ass out of bed.

I can empathize.

Just put on "Cradle Rock" by Rory Gallagher. That always work for me in the morning.....

 

[Nikolokolus]

G'nite gents (and ladies too). That was something.

Umm no it wasn't his first true dud. He had 8 points vs Clippers and had no impact. He was decent tonight with 19/5/4. You're just spoiled by his 38 point games.

Take away Crabbe's back to back garbage time 3s and he was very below average. Davis was the only one who showed more than one or two flashes. Harkless, Dame, Plumlee, and Leonard were awful. CJ was ok. Do we even know if Ezeli will suit up for us? I mean... it's like any time a decent center comes to Portland his knees turn to ash.

 

[Cippy91]

Truth hurts

 

[illmatic99]

3 bad blowout losses in 12 games. With such high expectations, Terry would be on the hotseat if he didn't sign that extension.

 

[Tunchi]

Truth hurts

Yup. We are not that good this year.

 

[julius]

It's not just the 3 blow out losses, tho those say a lot..its the fact that they've looked mediocre (at best) in 12 games this year.

 

[Cippy91]

Not a terrible idea here

The win @ MEM was good. I feel like we led that one from start to finish.

There have been flashes within games as well.

I don't get why we're having so much trouble rebounding. It's like the exact same roster as last year.
