Game Thread GAME# 15: BLAZERS @ KINGS - NOVEMBER 17, 2017 - FRIDAY, 7:00 (PST), NBCSNW

Does Hurd ever listen to some of the shit he spouts?

 

[BonesJones]

This 1st half is a great example as to why I want Stotts gone.

 

[BonesJones]

Nurk is a horrible passer. Turnover machine.

 

[KingSpeed]

Nuggets up 25 in the first qtr vs Pels

 

[Sinobas]

Who didn't get back on defense?

 

[LuckyShot]

Dame has to be like "WTF guys, I can't do EVERYTHING by myself"

 

[ripcityboy]

Dame keeping us in this.

 

[Strenuus]

I didnt actually want to be right about us playing down to the fucking kings. Make me wrong, PLEASE. Jesus.

 

[BonesJones]

Collins could defend college kids, there isn't enough tape on him to say he can defend nba players. He hasn't looked good. Both haven't looked good, but at least Biggie has shown he can rebound and pass at an average level.

Timing, quick jumping, and instinct translate.

 

[KingSpeed]

Nurk is a horrible passer. Turnover machine.

He's not horrible.

 

[Sinobas]

Someone is sleep walking on defense

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Nurk is shit today

 

[The Professional Fan]

Biggie brings nothing positive. Collins can defend.

And if that’s all he can do, right now, I’ll take it

 

[Strenuus]

Dame flung that ball back at the inbounder... he's showing some frustration.

 

[BonesJones]

I was 100% certain we'd play down to them. I feel like the team knows it will too, and tries to pretend like it won't in pre-game interviews.

 

[LuckyShot]

Dame might have to go off for 50 tonight.

 

[Darkwebs]

Dame is still not over the Kings passing on him in the draft when he shot lights out in his pre-draft workout for them. He always seems to go off in Sacramento.

 

[Sinobas]

This team has made no progress in the past 2 years. They rely on either CJ or Dame to have monster nights one on one just to stay in games.

 

[ripcityboy]

Big Ed!

 

[KingSpeed]

I was 100% certain we'd play down to them. I feel like the team knows it will too, and tries to pretend like it won't in pre-game interviews.

We're not playing down to them. They're playing up to us! Not for long though. We'll win easily in the end.

 

[LuckyShot]

CJ has a way of making super diffcult shots look easy.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Timing, quick jumping, and instinct translate.

You know who had those things in college and also ended up not being able to defend adequately? Thabeet.

 

[KingSpeed]

Harkless is on our team

 

[Strenuus]

We're only down 1?

 

[Chris Craig]

What a shitty half...could be worse though

 

[riverman]

Tough game to put a high light film together with

 

[LuckyShot]

We're not playing down to them. They're playing up to us! Not for long though. We'll win easily in the end.

Dude... we've tossed 11 turnovers. Both teams are shooting 40% so no is is playing "up" to anything right now lol.

 

[SIeepwalker]

Someone is sleep walking on defense

I'm not on the court

 

[Sinobas]

Blazers with 11 turnovers vs 3 for Sacremento, that's the big difference in the game.

And for team that doesn't run fast breaks and does so much 1 on 1 dribbling, I don't know how they can excuse so many turnovers.

 

[KingSpeed]

This team has made no progress in the past 2 years. They rely on either CJ or Dame to have monster nights one on one just to stay in games.

Great teams rely on their best players to win.
