Game Thread GAME# 16: THUNDER @ BLAZERS - JANUARY 25, 2021 - MONDAY, 7:00, NBCSNW

[PHXBlazer1]

Ok Melo's off tonight sit him down

 

[BlazerBeav]

At least we slowed the bleeding at the end. Hopefully they got their hot shooting out of their system.

 

[B-Roy]

The C in Carmelo stands for comedy.

 

[julius]

Disappointed Anf can't put two good game together. Disappointed Giles can't do some rim protection; I really think Gabriel could have done better.

might be a little early to say he can't put 2 good games together. Since you know, the game is still in the 1st quarter...

 

[James lamphear]

Between Dame and Melo 1-9 from the field. The 2nd gave us some life.

 

[Tince]

Good to know Covington wasn’t the problem.

You didn't expect the guy behind Covington to be better, did you?

 

[DDolla]

Dame looks like no sleep and rest for him

 

[TBpup]

That last shot was SOOO Melo. Ignore Dame, ignore the hot Simons. Hold the ball and then take a 26' and hit nothing but air.

 

[B-Roy]

You didn't expect the guy behind Covington to be better, did you?

Haha

 

[Chris Craig]

dame doesn't look like he wants to bother on defense tonight

Doesn't look like he wants to bother on offense either

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I see Anf is trying to prove me wrong since I posted that; more power to him. OK, then, why can't a guy like Melo, in the league for 15 or 20 years, show some consistency?

 

[Darkwebs]

That 9-2 run to end the quarter really saved us. But we still got work to do

 

[Tince]

That 17 points OKC lead got trimmed to 2, real quick.

 

[KingSpeed]

Love this lineup

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Ant looking good

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Good decision and aggression, Gary! Attacking quickly pays off!

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Will we guard Muscala? Doubt it

 

[illmatic99]

Ant looking good

you wont see a single one of his haters who constantly nitpicked the shit out of his 4 minute stints say anything here.

 

[Natebishop3]

He is looking way more confident.... but they’re also playing him as more of a shooting guard without CJ around.

 

[illmatic99]

these ads on the floor are hella distracting

 

[TBpup]

Much better effort from this bench unit.

 

[Natebishop3]

Of course he hits that.

 

[julius]

That 17 points OKC lead got trimmed to 2, real quick.

and got right back to 9 real quick too.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Strange..another opponent shooting close to 60% in the first half

 

[illmatic99]

straight line drives to the rim. no resistance.

 

[AldoTrapani]

I can’t wait to rebuild

 

[BlazerBeav]

Even a bad team when left wide open consistently can make shots.

 

[B-Roy]

Wow. Diallo just made a 1 on 3 look easy.

 

[Tince]

How many one dribble blow-bys are we going to give up. Ant and Giles are too young and fresh to be getting abused this bad.

 

[Natebishop3]

We have zero rim protection and that’s on Neil for not adding any shot blockers.
