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

[BonesJones]

I'll post how I want to post.

You don't sound too confident that they won't end up 7-10. Why would it matter what would happen if you lost the bet if you are so certain?

I bet you $100. That's how confident I am. Are you that confident?

 

[Darkwebs]

Would you explain the members for me? I hadn't watched South Park in years and I watched a couple nights ago. I had no idea what was going on.

I missed the latter half of last season's South Park, so I don't know when the member berries were introduced. But I've watched all (except the most recent) epsiode of South Park this season. So what I know is just off of this season.

The member berries are sentient berries that make you nostalgic about the past and dulls your mind, it seems.

 

[BonesJones]

You didn't learn not to bet money after the shitstorm that was started over your last monetary bet? If you're so confident you'd take the bet I proposed. If you don't, then obviously you're words don't hold any weight!

Okay. $200. You confident now?

 

[KingSpeed]

When you make a bet, no matter what the reward, there is no guarantee that you win. I don't want to bet who I am. But I will bet money. Take it or not.

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

It's not about changing the fan you are it's about changing the poster you are

I.E. Have perspective.

I have perspective.

I guess I am just waiting for the trade. This sucks...... but we will be fine.

Being an old guy, I can say patience is the hardest thing a person learns in his life. In NO I will trust.

Side note. I received my Amazon Fire stick at half time. I signed up on the Playstation Vue free trial.

Quality seems to be great so far. Life is good again. :MARIS61:

Did HCP pay?

 

[Tunchi]

Dude, we can't make our team go to the lottery. So why are you saying "we should try" that?

HELL YEA!! Look at all our star players we've had on this team. Roy LMA Lillard Cj to name a few were all lottery players.

This team we have now won't do shit but get u about 40 wins, MAYBE make the playoffs, fill the seats and if some good luck happens we'll make the 2nd round.

Olshey is terrific at drafting but sucks in free agency which I don't put on him bc he's working in a small market

I have Amazon Fire Stick too. Best thing is that you can easily take it wherever you go.

Someone else paid for him.

 

[Nikolokolus]

About that panic button ...

 

[Darkwebs]

Our defense is incompetent. Stotts need to rethink/retool his defensive strategy to fit the current personnel on this team.

So what are we supposed to do? What are NO and Stotts supposed to do? What is Dame supposed to do?

 

[riverman]

Okay. $200. You confident now?

hey eric....bones is a broke college kid ....his mom needs that money...let it go! (just teasing you bones but you're still a teen right? _

 

[Tunchi]

Just keep playing the way we are

 

[KingSpeed]

That's why he should make that bet. He could use that $200.

[Tunchi]

I told many of ya last year under ratedly this is going to be bad thing in the near future.

Check the last 10 years in the Western conference. 44 wins doesn’t even get you in the playoffs LET ALONE THE FREAKING 5th SEED.

Then everybody said well if we make the playoffs it’ll show free agents we are sooooo good.. yup what did that do for us? Ohh it got us Evan Turner

We got fooled into a fools gold season and went all in with garbage players.

 

[Tunchi]

What are we supposed to do?

Play like we have the last 3 games

I'm back on the lottery idea be prepared guys

So what? Is it our fault the Blazers won 44 games last year?

Good. So you must be happy. Stop bitching during game threads.

 

[Hobbesarable]

I said this last season and I'll say it again, its time to bring in a defensive minded assistant coach. Obviously our defense is not cutting the mustard.

We'll begin winning games again once the D shows up and helps them get a few easy buckets here and there.

You don't want somebody telling you how to post, so you tell another person how to post.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Disagree.

I would be right with you flying the go team go Blazer flag if it weren't for the fact that this team is getting BLOWN OUT not in the fourth quarter but in the SECOND QUARTER on a consistent basis now. The game is over before halftime and I don't see that changing anytime soon until they start playing LOCKDOWN DEFENSE and giving EFFORT.

 

[TBpup]

The Pelicans normally shoot 43%....they shot 55%. For the 2nd game in a row, an opponent got a season high in points. This isn't just bad, they just aren't competing. It's sad that as much $$$ as Paul Allen spent this off-season, this is the effort he is getting.

We brought in Turner and Ezeli to improve our defense. Turner is adjusting to our team and Ezeli is hurt. As our best defensive player Aminu is hurt.

Our Dame/CJ/Harkless/Aminu/Plumlee line up is a +15 per 100 possessions this year. We had nice leads vs Clippers and Warriors with that lineup but then our bench would ruin it. Turner is coming around. Once we get Aminu back, we'll be good. You can't bitch about Olshey when the team he built isn't on the floor.
