Game Thread GAME# 19: MAVERICKS @ BLAZERS - DECEMBER 1, 2015 - TUESDAY, 7:00 PM (PST), CSNNW & NBATV

[Fez Hammersticks]

Zaza: 14 pts | 21 rebs

 

[SlyPokerDog]

We're tanking and we still take the game to OT?

No complaints.

 

[riverman]

Hell of a try at the end by Hendo and Dame

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Entertaining loss!

 

[LuckyShot]

I do like that Terry had them fight until the bitter end. I don't like throwing in the towel.

 

[Sinobas]

Too bad Wes got injured and was offered so much money by Dallas. I'd like to have him on the team over anyone else that left.

That switch on the pick and roll was some Grade A subtle tanking.

 

[oldmangrouch]

When the corpse previously known as Deron Williams lights you up for 30 points, your backcourt defense is in serious trouble. I won't even mention what Zaza did to our big men.

 

[The Professional Fan]

Just another building block that we all knew was necessary. I'm having fun this season.

 

[riverman]

Get the next one! Good game tonight..Go Blazers!

 

[The Professional Fan]

Correct me if I'm wrong my memory is shit: 0-2 vs LMA, 0-1 vs Batum, 0-1 vs Wes, haven't played Lopez yet?

these are character building losses. Expecting a strong bounce back on Thurs

I don't think the character of this team will be giving up anytime soon

 

[Trackjack]

We lost the game when CJ went in for Henderson. Henderson had going and CJ didn't point blank bad decision by the coach. Stotts needs reevaluate his team especially the starters and his self as a coach. Great job by the bench tonight.

Nope. Really curious to see how Dame does as leader to quell these 4th quarter meltdowns. He has been heralded as cool and collected in pressure situations since his rookie year. But with so much inexperience around him, we see him pressing more and more.

 

[riverman]

Bench had about 73 pts...that's insane..

We lost the game when Stotts inexplicably decided to switch every Dirk pick and roll. It was honestly the dumbest move imaginable.

Yeah, the first insane thing I noticed was zero points from the starting forwards. Forgive me, Box score junky only. I seem to lose the radio broadcast on 620 every damn night at around the 3rd quarter. Have to check in with ESPN to see who won.

 

[Sinobas]

No, we lost because these losers fold in crunch time, again. It doesn't matter how big of a lead they have, if they are playing anyone half way decent, they will just blow it in the 4th. This team must be on pace to break some kind of record for losing when you lead by 10 or more in the 4th.

[Sinobas]

Why did the broadcast cut off the last question to Terry Stotts? A reporter says, "I ask this with all due respect" and the it cuts off

That's ok. We're not quite a finished product. If anything this tells me we're on to something. We hardly get blown out plus we have some decent young guys. We just need to play hard, compete then lose in the end.

Neil will absolutely nail a top 5 pick. We need that

 

[Nikolokolus]

this kind of loss may really get the tank rollin - Pattonesque

 

[oldmangrouch]

Adversity doesn't build character - it just exposes it.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

In a game of tank Patton played Raymond "The Dessert Fox" Felton and won...?

 

[EGame]

Did Wes get a roaring ovation? Please say he did.

 

[KingSpeed]

Did Wes get a roaring ovation? Please say he did.

Mike and Mike said he did

 

[EGame]

Mike and Mike said he did

Good. Glad to hear it. Unlike some people whose names will be left unsaid he worked his ass off and gave us 110% everytime he was on that court.

 

[B-Roy]

Did Wes get a roaring ovation? Please say he did.

Huge. I have a video of it. Will see if I can upload sometime.

Those really aren't much good. I have one, and a better receiver in the Radio Shack SW100 but not good enough. The Kenwood TS-570 in the boat works well using the
rigging as the antenna but something in town starts up at around 8:00 every night and turns 620 into a buzz on the Kenwood. Can't even filter it out.
