Game Thread Game #13 - Blazers @ Rockets - NOVEMBER 12, 2021 - FRIDAY - 5:00 PM (PDT) ROOT SPORTS

[James lamphear]

That wasn't a good ending of the quarter.

 

[Fairly-Hard]

CJ’s selfishness makes games unwatchable by itself.

Without him tonight they are down 10 instead of leading by 10.

 

[DUB]

This game is the definition of “meh”. No matter how hard I try, I just can’t get excited about it.

 

[Labinot41]

We should be up 30 against this garbage team

 

[Fairly-Hard]

We should be up 30 against this garbage team

Because so many other teams have beat them by 30 right?

 

[KSF-ERIC]

CJ’s selfishness makes games unwatchable by itself.

He has a game high 4 assists. And I think some people say his game is unwatchable because they’ve taken it for granted, bored with his greatness. He was incredible in the first half.

 

[Mr. Robot]

He's playing for his third coach now; if he is still having problems it might not be the situation. He would be better to work with his coaches in figuring out how he can contribute more.

chauncey promised him a lot

turns out he lied

 

[KSF-ERIC]

CJ leading team in pts, rebs, assts, and stls

 

[Fairly-Hard]

CJ leading team in pts, rebs, assts, and stls

Absolutely unwatchable!

 

[James lamphear]

CJ has good stat line very good but I think how he gets his points by having to over dribbling to get his spot it not good basketball. Even most his assist comes by over dribbling but not be able get his shot so has pass. Been watching the same CJ for years stotts didn't reel him and don't seem Mr accountable Billups haven't reel him in either.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

chauncey promised him a lot

turns out he lied

If he believes that I think he should sit down with Chauncey and talk it out. Billups seems like a straight shooter.

 

[James lamphear]

CJ leading team in pts, rebs, assts, and stls

The question not his stat the question is he he getting them within the offense and is he getting other involved within the offense.

Actually no.
2of his assists came on a fast break and one came on a PnR.

 

[bobf]

Anfernee’s advanced stats have taken an absolute nosedive the past week or so.

Yeah, he’s 1/13 from three the last three games. But he’s still got a nice +1.5 offensive BPM. I’m sure he’ll get his 3pt shot cooking again.

 

[wizenheimer]

I can see now why Houston is 1-10. There are some really bad teams in the NBA this year and 4 are in the West.

 

[Fairly-Hard]

The question not his stat the question is he he getting them within the offense and is he getting other involved within the offense.

He is pulling in rebounds and starting the break. He is getting stops and steals are moving faster than Lillard.
Watch the game.

 

[bobf]

Ridiculous.
That is not A Flag foul

Calabro and Hurd thought it was but then they always kiss the refs ass anyway. Give me some solid Mike Rice style homerism.

 

[Blazinaway]

Ridiculous.
That is not A Flag foul

it was a stupid foul and Chauncey let him know

 

[Fairly-Hard]

it was a stupid foul and Chauncey let him know

What did he tell him?

 

[wizenheimer]

it was a stupid foul and Chauncey let him know

yeah...I thought it was pretty clearly a flagrant.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

The question not his stat the question is he he getting them within the offense and is he getting other involved within the offense.

The answer to both questions is yes if you ask me

 

[James lamphear]

He is pulling in rebounds and starting the break. He is getting stops and steals are moving faster than Lillard.
Watch the game.

I talking about his generally his overall games. Yes he he having a good game and he good stat line.

 

[bobf]

What did he tell him?

He told him let him score.

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Calabro and Hurd thought it was but then they always kiss the refs ass anyway. Give me some solid Mike Rice style homerism.

It was a take foul. Ball and I little left arm. No intent to hurt anyone but possibly not a basketball play. So 2 shots and ball.
Just be consistent is all I say.

 

[Blazinaway]

What did he tell him?

in plain speak/body language it was a "dumb ass" move

 

[Blazinaway]

yeah...I thought it was pretty clearly a flagrant.

same here, is it me or does CJ get more flagrants than most?

 

[Fairly-Hard]

I talking about his generally his overall games. Yes he he having a good game and he good stat line.

I’m talking about tonight’s game that we are watching now.
CJ is having a good game and playing well within the offense and defense.

 

[Scalma]

Without him tonight they are down 10 instead of leading by 10.

stupid logic. Or are you saying Anfernee wouldn’t be able score any points?

 

[Fairly-Hard]

stupid logic. Or are you saying Anfernee wouldn’t be able score any points?

Check your logic
Ant isn’t scoring. CJ is scoring.
Let’s both hope Ant starts scoring and CJ doesn’t stop scoring.

“Not a basketball play” has basically never been enforced on its own. It’s been standard practice for ages to foul on purpose which is never a basketball play. It’s always been called based on how hard was the foul or did he get up in the head or neck area. In this case it didn’t look bad to me but I didn’t see more than one angle.
