Game Thread GAME# 18: BLAZERS @ BULLS - JANUARY 30, 2021 - SATURDAY, 5:00, NBCSNW

Lillard getting to his spots, I like it. Dame aggressive early. It's what we need.

 

[Labinot41]

Yes Kanter got 8 points but he gave up 14 in D

 

[Chris Craig]

I wish Kanter was as strong finishing shots as he is pulling down boards.

 

[James lamphear]

Right now we are 2-10 from the 3. Trent and Dame both 1-4.

We need him to be more aggressive

 

[julius]

Like watching two lottery teams trying to gracefully tank.

 

[Tince]

I'm going to go out on a limb and say these are not the two best defensive teams in the league.

 

[Labinot41]

Watching Ant off the ball on defense... I'm glad his offense is picking up but sheesh he looks lost every defensive poessesion

 

[James lamphear]

There shooting 50 percent from the 3 and we shooting 18 percent but good thing is we only down by 2. But it's same story with the defense.

 

[B-Roy]

Is there a stat that tracks how much distance players cover per min? I’ve noticed that every game Melo basically switches every action whether it’s on or off ball, probably to compensate for the fact that he has the mobility of a center. Like centers that are already retired.

 

[julius]

I'm full on tank mode now. Forget the playoffs, aim for a high lotto pick. The team deserves one for all their bad luck.

[Chris Craig]

Fucking Carmelo

 

[Darkwebs]

Trent going on lockdown mode on D.

2 steals and 1 block in 12 minutes of play

 

[Chris Craig]

At least the Bulls are trying

 

[B-Roy]

My interest in the team just keeps going down when I see Melo playing.

• Blazers really looking like a lottery team this year folks.

 

[Tince]

+1 with Dame off the court in 5 minutes. I'll take it!

Without CJ, Nurk, Collins, and DJJ, they most certainly should be a lottery team. Unless more injuries happen, I still think we crack the top 10.

 

[Labinot41]

bulls on pace for 50+ threes

 

[julius]

I just scoured NBAdraft.net, and since the Blazers are currently a top 8 team, their pick goes to Houston (duh). That means Houston would have 2 lotto picks and a mid 20's pick.

Then I saw one of the most unfortunate names in NBA history, as one of the prospects.

"David Duke".

Poor guy.

 

[Tince]

bulls on pace for 50+ threes

That's 150 points!

 

[Labinot41]

Finaly RoCo!

 

[Darkwebs]

RoCo splashing a 3. Finally. Glad to see it

 

[Darkwebs]

Gary is taking over

 

[Tince]

+10 in 7:30 with Dame off the floor!

 

[James lamphear]

This why Trent will get paid next season.

 

[Labinot41]

Gary gonna get that bag

 

[B-Roy]

Team plays better on both ends without Melo.

 

[Tince]

This why Trent will get paid next season.

Going to be real interesting who's he's playing for next year.
