wow Dame had 0 FTA

Did he have one last game?

2 in a row. no FTs.

 

[LayneStaley]

Yeah. Shai is the point guard version of CJ. Love his game.

GO BIG BLUE

 

[Strenuus]

wow Dame had 0 FTA

Tonight is an answer to a trivia question: Has there ever been a game where Dame had more technical than free throws?

 

[BigGameDamian]

Slumping CJ and Collins for LMA?

I hope your not expecting any likes out of this post.

Are u guys listening to Nards in the huddle? Oh man he’s a total cheese dick.

Referring to Seth marrying Doc's daughter: "I know you married into the family and shit, but get over here."

I thought it was kinda funny.

Talking to Curry about marrying into this family etc

It was more the tone.

It was more the tone.

I could see that...

Another good win by the Blazers! Positive we had 5 players in double figures and the bench had 41 tonight led by Zach with 10/9. The defense in the 2nd half was big key to be this win. We held to 48 points the 2nd half.

 

[JDC]

Zach looked a little hesitant out there in the first half...nice to see him step it up at the end.

 

[LayneStaley]

At the current rate of improvement nards could be looking at an all star birth around 2024. Seriously though, him and ET look A LOT better.

 

[BonesJones]

There's a little thing called the 'luxury tax'

I know pretty much the entire CBA. Do you? Exactly. So get outta here with that.


And there was a guy named Paul Allen, who was recently known to overpay to keep his players in Portland. So you think Paul Allen cared about that extra $6M-$8M in payment? Seriously? And you think that Olshey is lying, after he admitted to trading Vonleh to avoid the repeater tax?

Your narrative is uneducated conjecture.

 

[Scalma]

How do we get Gallinari

I thought one of them might be meaningfully better this year, but both?

Didn't see that coming.

 

[James lamphear]

It was good to see Zach get 27 minutes and he him gets some really good rebounds towards the end of the game.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Paper.

Clips.

 

[ripcityboy]

Give me 10M/year and you can talk bad about me all day long and I’ll give you a smile back

I couldn't.

 

[Titan]

No good clipper!

 

[illmatic99]

How do we get Gallinari

does he look fat to you?

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

We could be 12-0. We should be 11-1.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

does he look fat to you?

Does @HCP look skinny?

 

[hoopsjock]

Ah thats cute Austins a mom! or does Doc have another daughter?

I see what you did there.

 

[Scalma]

does he look fat to you?

He looks like the Mirotic we deserve.

Lol, I don’t know, he’s always had some cushion on him.

 

[JDC]

They got a good one in Shai.

Long, crafty, plays at his own pace. Isn't always technically sound on D but his length is disruptive and the spot up 3 is looking pretty real.

 

[Scalma]

This might be hyperbole but I think we’re a wing or a stretch four (along with some luck re injuries) away from doing something really interesting in the playoffs.

It’d be great to know what the timeline is with Harkless.

But if he’s not coming back, does Neil make an aggressive move at th deadline?

Im at the point where as long as they dont get swept again, itll be interesting enough...

Interesting comment by doc after the game when asked about him. Something to the effect of "yeah he did some good things, but you saw where he had the biggest negative tonight". (-16)

Apparently Doc doesn't think the +/- is a misleading stat.

 

[rotary111]

If we had this ET and Stauskas in the playoffs last year do we win a couple of games?

What a difference they make!

We beat NO. We wouldn't' have to watch EVERYONE pass hte ball to only CJ/DAme and not want to shoot even when they are open only to see CJ/Dame miss everything since htey get the ball with little time on the clock.

 

[Darkwebs]

ET had 7 assists and ZERO TURNOVERS tonight. ZERO!

I guess we can't call him Evan Turnover anymore.
