She invited Melo over for Thanksgiving who has no plans. Said he'd maybe roll to Dame's.

 

[DDolla]

The next 14 games, 10 are at home. We need to win them all

Some sports commentators are going to eat some serious Melo crow after this game....Shannon Sharpe talks like Melo is beyond washed up..he can suck it

 

[BlazerRx]

I'm excited for this string of home games. I think this is where we get some momentum and turn the ugly start of this season around. So glad we got Melo and that Tolliver and Hezonja are only seeing the floor in garbage time. Hope this can continue!

 

[Labinot41]

Brooke, that was shameless!

What happened?

 

[Hoopguru]

Watching Melo at the 4 makes me think...Lamarcus who?

I see him as

So who starts at PF when Collins comes back? And if the answer is Collins, does Melo move back to SF? He doesn't deserve to move to the bench.

If Melo keeps playing like this I’d start him at 4 and bring Collins off bench.
Hood at 3 is fine although I like him posting up smaller 2’s.

 

[blazerkor]

Second two game win streak of the season. I think we'll beat the Bulls again and that'll take us to our best win streak of the season. It's a shame that it will only be a three game win streak. After we get one out the next three games we really could win the following 9 strait. I think we will do that and end the year above .500.

 

[Five Second Violation]

What happened?

She asked Melo if he had any Thanksgiving plans. He said he didn't know but might go to Dame's house, she said she is cooking and he could come to her place.

Lmao haha

 

[Hoopguru]

Props to Olshey for bringing Melo in

Maybe it will help attract FA’s if Melo gives us a nod!

 

[BlazerRx]

So 5 games for Melo and he obviously is still a good offensive player....but I gotta say his defense has not been as bad as everyone thought it would be considering the limited time to adjust. What do you think?

 

[kjironman1]

Blazers committing a whole bunch of fouls to celebrate the fowls that we'll all eat tomorrow

So you were holding onto that one for a whole year now weren't you.

Yea it’s not a coincidence things look much better since they fell off the rotation

 

[kjironman1]

So if the Blazers can take care of business against the Bulls again they will be sitting 8-12 at the 20 game mark and riding a 3 game win streak.
Most of us were looking for 10-10 at 20 games but we all knew it was going to be a tough run to begin the season.
Seems to me they easily could have gone 10-10 and kind of dropped a couple they had no business losing. Matter of fact they probably could be 12-8?

 

[THE HCP]

I didn't expect a lot.

And I got less.

Well now you know how all your wome.......errrrrrrr.........inflatable sheep feel. #BAM

 

[Scalma]

Keep Whiteside as Nurks backup. Use Bazemores contract instead.

 

[Natebishop3]

Keep Whiteside as Nurks backup. Use Bazemores contract instead.

Do you want to pay him after the season is over?

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Do you want to pay him after the season is over?

No but thankfully Jodies got more money than us.

 

[Scalma]

Do you want to pay him after the season is over?

if he’s good with being a backup sure.

 

[THE HCP]

Watching Melo at the 4 makes me think...Lamarcus who?

Watching Melo at that 4 makes me think.... LaMarcus.
He is our first legit low post scorer SINCE him. And I love it. Our PF tonight got double teamed 4 times!!!! When in the hell have we had a low post player since LA left that demanded that. Opens up SO many options out there for the rest of the team.
