Great to finally get a little lunch of the good variety.

Damn, 6 pints in 5 seconds

He just shattered Jake Bronstein's world record of one pint in 6.03 seconds! Insane.

All Love!!!!

I'm glad we got Kanter back, even though he Kanter do a lot of things Nurk does, he was part of the team that made it all the way to the Conference Finals.

Is there a clip package the includes Dame's 3 to cut it to 2, the Trent tie up, then Trent winning the jump for the Lillard walkoff?

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Dame was amazing but without that jump ball stop...we don't give him that shot...Gary Trent got a huge stop

And some credit to the refs; they will usually just call afoul in that situation.

Certainly hearing a lot less of the "Why is Kanter playing over Giles?!?" chat.

Kanter would be a fool to ever leave Portland.

Great call, very true!

I was curious if Trent "stole" that jump by touching it before it reached it's peak. I believe that's the rule.

 

[Tince]

If you hate Stotts, DO NOT listen to Kanter's post game interview... you'll want him traded immediately.

check out the scouting report on the whiteboard

It's hurting my neck trying to read it!

Dame limping off the court. The man is a WARRIOR and not in the Bay Area sense.

Very much in the Bay Area sense. Oakland grows them tough. Dame and the VP.

Time to Vote... Dame to the All-Star

 

[illmatic99]

i wonder what the win percentage/likelihood is for teams up 5 with 9 seconds left.

unfortunately, i think it's a lock to be luka/steph

With 0 timeouts, it has to be crazy low! That's why I don't understand why Chicago didn't call a timeout to advance the ball.

"Coaching staff did an amazing job..." -When asked a question not about the coaches.

"Coach Stotts... I mean listen... I played with 8 different coaches, and I can see what coach Stotts meant to all of us. He's definitely a difference maker. He tells you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear."

Now, I'm not sure if I buy it, but that's what he said.

 

[DDolla]

Good News we won, bad news Bucks lost 2nd in a row. Not sure if they’ll go down 3 in a row.

 

[julius]

ESPN said that Damian now has 3 "game winning buzzer beating 3 pointers"...I swear he's had more.

 

[crandc]

Badly needed a win. Dame willed it.

We'll probably lose by double-digits, but at least we can enjoy tonights win! At least, some of us seem to be enjoying it.

 

[Pinwheel1]

I thought I was watching college ball with those 2 offensive foul calls at the end.

I'm assuming that if there is still .02 on the clock after Lillard's shot goes in, it wouldn't be considered a buzzer beating 3. So perhaps ESPN doesn't count those as buzzer beater

 

[Tince]

Dame's should've been a block. Kanter's should've been a no-call. That their best effort.

[julius]

I'm fine if they keep Stotts, as long as they actually hire someone to coach the defense. And actually coaches defense.

From Bulls Forum:


Dame is the best PG in the league.

Shame on Portland for giving him such a garbage team.

 

[Tince]

You're the man, thank you!

I believe they said the Bulls had a 99.8% chance of winning at the start of this.

 

[DDolla]

He is an All-Star starter.
