TREMENDOUS Win!

Fuck yeah!

Go Blazers!!!!

This game was like watching a drunken daredevil do cartwheels on a tightrope over the grand canyon in the middle of a thunder storm and lose his footing a dozen times and get to the end and fall forward and faceplant on the other side, passed out in a drunken stupor

You watched the ripcity2 suite guys?

 

[Jade Falcon]

"The Other Side" will be updated shortly.

 

[theprunetang]

The turnovers were just contagious for us. It wasn't even on one person. The whole squad was sloppy with the ball. Glad to sneak the win at the end.

 

[Boise Blazer]

I do like the fact that we didn't play well in the second half and we were still able to grind out a win versus a tough team. And we when we do play (shoot) well like the first half we are damn near impossible to beat.

 

[DDolla]

Great game yessss, now watch this team lay an egg again to the Lakers

 

[blazerkor]

Big win. It's good to get a close one against a quality opponent. Dame had a big time double double and so did Nurk.

 

[theprunetang]

Ps. Can we please not play against a Morris twin for a while? Please?

 

[42N8Bounce]

That was a big win. Of all players, Aminu steps up with the big 3s at the end of the game. Way to grit it out Blazers. Nice win!!

Think they get the other one next week in Washington.

 

[Scalma]

Oh look, another win where everyone contributed. I think they call that a team.

So true, they are for sure Blazer killers

 

[James lamphear]

Good win! Positive balance scoring for us. Nurk and Dame double double. Bench not as effective but they got 30 tonight and Zach 6/8 5 offense rebounds and Curry shot well. Negative: turnovers !

 

[julius]

I think a win like this is a good win for the team, and shows they're growing.

I mean sure, I'd rather they not lose a 21 point lead, but they held strong and won. This road trip will test them, and could go a long way to setting the standard for the season. There are 3 difficult games (Lakers, Bucks and Warriors...btw, who the hell decided it should be the Warriors after the Bucks??) where they hopefully can get revenge on the Lakers, and 3 games that are winnable if they play strong and smart.

A 4-2 road trip is not out of the question, but so is a 3-3. Anything worse than 3-3 is a disappointment.

"Terry, they are stretching out to the Perimeter?"

"Suck my dick."

"Seriously Terry. It's just like Washington."

"Suck his dick. IDGAF."

Oh goddamnit....

 

[LJ Ginger]

We are alone in 2nd in the West since DEN lost...most fun I've had watching a Blazers team in years...great chemistry and everyone knows their role! At times, it's a thing of beauty!

 

[beast blazer]

Celtics are a top 5 team. So it was a great win...but they flirted so hard with blowing it. It could have been a thing of total beauty. The refs gifted the Celtics a lot of unwarranted fts

 

[beast blazer]

I feel like Turner was trying too hard tonight. Many reckless passes

 

[jonnyboy]

Man, we played like shit and still beat the Celtics who were hot from three. Thats actually pretty encouraging to me.

We had a great 1st half though

 

[rotary111]

We're a Melo away from a championship.

 

[Scalma]

Wonder how bad Ainge wants to dump Hayward.

 

[ripcityboy]

CJ and Turner were so/so but Dame, Nurk and Sleepy Eyes showed up.

 

[julius]

We're a Melo away from a championship.

The Warriors are going to sign him so he can submarine another team?

 

[oldmangrouch]

You should copyright that!

 

[riverman]

Hayward is quickly looking like the new Chandler Parsons

 

[theprunetang]

Anyone else find it a little questionable though that the Celtics had to play an entire half with a bent rim, and then it gets fixed right when the Blazers are set to use that side of the court?

I wondered about that too. How did the teams shoot half vs half?
