Not advocating ISO ball. Advocating taking open shots by the best shooters in the lineup. As Phil Jackson once said, “when you have a good shot, it’s not your option to take it, it’s your duty.”

I take it you have never played? It is a chore watching one guy take all the shots without a single pass. The ball has energy. Guys aren't even seeing the ball for multiple possessions.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Wow we became that team this is crazy

 

[julius]

Or rebounded well. Or played defense. Or passed. Or ran plays. Or were healthy.

Or didn't telegraph passes.

 

[B-Roy]

My optimism for Melo waning.

 

[illmatic99]

We hadn't run a single set for like 10 possessions before that one.

 

[illmatic99]

My optimism for Melo waning.

Wait for Dame to return before judging

 

[julius]

This team isn't getting out of the first round, let alone making the playoffs.

 

[Blazers Roy]

We hadn't run a single set for like 10 possessions before that one.

Sounds about Stotts.

 

[BonesJones]

Faried would be perfect next to Skal.

 

[BonesJones]

This team isn't getting out of the first round, let alone making the playoffs.

We lost by 43 last year in Milwaukee, and we had Dame and Nurkic.

 

[AldoTrapani]

My optimism for Melo waning.

Who cares we need him to un-purposely tank this season... this season is the sacrificial lamb for the future

 

[Blazers Roy]

Faried would be perfect next to Skal.

Isnt Chinese season ending soon?

 

[julius]

my comment wasn't based solely on this game.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Skal is really good offensively. If Zach had his offense with the excellent defense he already has, Collins would be deadly

 

[blazerfan11]

I'm shocked that we got a dunk off a pass. Probably it for the game.

 

[Blazers Roy]

If Skal keeps playing like that he's gonna get benched.

 

[illmatic99]

And of course terry take skal out.

 

[julius]

It fucking better be.

 

[bobf]

Good lord Bazemore.

Everyone we got except whiteside is garbage.

 

[Blazers Roy]

And of course terry take skal out.

Called it!

 

[B-Roy]

4 guys in the paint. 4 Blazers not being defended on the perimeter. CJ drives and 4 guys collapse.

What will CJ do?

a.) Shoot
b.) Shoot
c.) Shoot
d.) Shoot

 

[julius]

If we needed any proof that Carmelo is done in this league, it's that he's not getting ANY calls that he used to get (not saying he should because of who he is, just that he used to get calls). Throw into the mix he's playing for Portland and he might as well be invisible.

 

[Boise Blazer]

Marv Albert is soooooooo bad. Fuck.

 

[DDolla]

C’mon Stotts, it’s only 4 mins left why take out Skal... smh

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I was just checking to see if Little was in foul trouble, NO. Why isn't he playing more?

 

[B-Roy]

Wait for Dame to return before judging

Looks cooked defensively.

 

[bobf]

I take it you have never played? It is a chore watching one guy take all the shots without a single pass. The ball has energy. Guys aren't even seeing the ball for multiple possessions.

Every good & great offensive player in the NBA takes open threes when they are there. His two was wide open. Dame, Curry, Harden, Doncic... because it’s the right play.

 

[OneSport3]

Isnt Chinese season ending soon?

Ends around March

 

[KingSpeed]

Guys. I think we have a chance in this game.

 

[OneSport3]

C’mon Stotts, it’s only 4 mins left why take out Skal... smh

Skal was gassed. He’s not used to these kind of minutes.
