Game Thread GAME# 14: BLAZERS @ PELICANS - NOVEMBER 18, 2016 - FRIDAY, 5:00 PM (PDT), CSNNW

[Tunchi]

Please fire Stotts soon.

Clearly he has lost this team and we are headed for another blowout loss

It was a fun ride with Stotts but Lillard and Cj are young enough to start this thing over.

We'll have a lottery pick this year and some decent assets to move forward

The Pelicans are 2-10 guys this is the last straw

Halftime
Us - 51
Them - 64

FG%
Us - 36.2%
Them - 58.7%

3P%
Us - 38.5%
Them - 54.5%

Ast
Us - 10
Them - 20

Blk
Us - 0
Them - 7

But we're out-rebounding them! I thought that was the only thing that was holding us back?

 

[Tunchi]

And zero assists. Our ball movement is pathetic.

That's why it shocks me ppl think Harden sucks here

 

[illmatic99]

Offense is not the problem

 

[blue9]

Offense is not the problem

It most certainly is. Not the BIGGEST problem (by a long shot!), but it's a problem.

I always enjoyed the motion offense....just not a fan of the slow motion version

You're overreacting.

 

[H.C.]

Fucking Lillard jogging back on the pointing at guys to pick up his man

I may be mistaken but wasn't he communicating with Vonleh about Terrance Jones running behind him.
Trying to get Vonleh to play back and prevent the lob?

That's what it looked like to me.

 

[BonesJones]

I hate this team

 

[Sinobas]

The only thing that will make this season interesting again is if we get DeMarcus Cousins.

 

[riverman]

You're overreacting.

I probably am, but giving up 64pts in a half kind of bugs me...and we've been doing more of that recently...lot of game left

 

[KingSpeed]

I hate this team

Dude, why? We're 7-6. We're playing with a ton of effort tonight. They're just making crazy shots. That will subside and we'll have a chance to win this game.

 

[Tunchi]

You're overreacting.

How so?

How many times have we been blown out this season and the season is less than a month old?

 

[KingSpeed]

I probably am, but giving up 64pts in a half kind of bugs me...and we've been doing more of that recently...lot of game left

I wasn't talking to you though

 

[DUB]

You're not old enough to drink yet!

Nice; most Americans I talk to don't know that getting pissed, means getting drunk.

 

[Tunchi]

It bugs me too. I'm a big Stotts fan but sometimes coaches reach their expiration dates with teams. Stotts already is one of the longest tenure coaches

He lost this team. Something happened we don't know about

 

[KingSpeed]

How so?

How many times have we been blown out this season and the season is less than a month old?

We have a bette record than last year. Hustle has been a problem the last few games but not tonight. Stay calm. Terrence Jones hitting wild threes. Aminu is not playing. We are fine. You only react to the negative. You never react to the positive.

 

[KingSpeed]

I'd agree if it weren't for the fact that team is showing a lot of effort tonight. The fight is there.

 

[riverman]

I wasn't talking to you though

I get that a lot...let me at least pretend someone talks to me here

 

[DUB]

Rebounds
Us- 23
Them- 20

And impressively for us, we're winning on the offensive boards.

OReb
Us - 6
Them - 1

We have missed 30 shots. theyve missed 19

 

[H.C.]

I like the fact Portland is ahead in the rebounding category after 2 quarters.
23-20.
I expect the Pels to come down in shooting in the 2nd half.
I hope Portland continues to rebound.

 

[H.C.]

I get that a lot...let me at least pretend someone talks to me here

I'll talk to you about your guitar.

 

[riverman]

I'm a fan of starting Ed and Mason until Chief comes back for now

 

[H.C.]

3 more offensive rebounds to start the quarter.
Keep working team.

 

[BonesJones]

Dude, why? We're 7-6. We're playing with a ton of effort tonight. They're just making crazy shots. That will subside and we'll have a chance to win this game.

We are? I'll break down film of this game tomorrow and show you we aren't.

 

[Trackjack]

Players only meetings dont do shit

Really they do if have proper leadership and let all players have there say. Because right what ever there doing it is not working. So you give other thing shot to see if something will click.

 

[H.C.]

Good thing Ken Mauer isn't there tonight. Plumlee would have been called for a foul for diving on the floor.

 

[Sinobas]

We have missed 30 shots. theyve missed 19

They've scored 69 points, we've scored 57.
