Game Thread GAME# 20: BLAZERS @ WIZARDS - NOVEMBER 25, 2017 - SATURDAY, 4:00 PM (PST), NBCSNW

[Darkwebs]

Wall is actually out for two weeks

I have updated my original post to reflect this change.

With Wall out, our team needs to ball out!

 

[blue9]

Aminu is not our 4th best player. Y’all be trippin.

Aminu is our 4th most average player though.

 

[SIeepwalker]

Hold the fuck on.....you are claiming that not only is Aminu our BEST defender, but also our BEST rebounder.......and to top this off, he is our BEST shooter? #64Wins

How is this Aminu guy not an allstar ?!?

 

[GrandJury]

Fuck yea

 

[Darkwebs]

You just know Frazier will give extra effort tonight, playing his former team and starting against his good buddy.

 

[KingSpeed]

Aminu is not our 4th best player. Y’all be trippin.

Nearly averaging a double double. Leader in rebounds and blocks. 43% from 3. Scored 25 in last playoff game last season. No one is saying he's an all star but he is 100% our 4th best player.

How many points did Aminu score yesterday? Fourth best player my ass.

 

[Scalma]

Gortat for whatever reason always owns European centers when they match up. Nurk will have his hands full.

Frazier seems to always play well against Portland, and it’s obvious why. Don’t see that changing today.

I wonder who guards Porter. Ideally Moe but he’s been garbage and doesn’t really deserve to play. Maybe he climbs out of his own ass today.

Oh God. The Tim Frazier game.

I'm leaving DC right as this game starts unfortunately

 

[Mr. Robot]

wheres everyone, come on boys, lets get it done

 

[riverman]

Only get to listen to the first qtr or so,....Go Blazers!

 

[Cippy91]

Who ever would of thought harkless would get demoted and replaced with pat in the starting lineup? Lol

 

[TBpup]

Blazers catching a break with Wall out. Have to take advantage like the Blazers did when Conley was out.

 

[Darkwebs]

I'm excited! It's been a while since I've watched a game in real time.

 

[VenomXL]

Fast start please.

 

[Jade Falcon]

Let's go boys! I missed yesterday's game, but if it's anything like this one, it's gonna be ugly. Washington is way better than Brooklyn.

 

[DUB]

It's 10:30 Sunday morning, too early for a beer? There's Ashes cricket on TV, Trail Blazer basketball on the computer, and I've already mowed the lawn, and watered the garden; so I'm going to say no.

 

[DUB]

LET'S GO TRAIL BLAZERS!!!

 

[DUB]

I love it when we feed Nurk early.

 

[SIeepwalker]

Beast alert !!

 

[TBpup]

Nurk attacks the basket early for 2. Nice look to get Nurkic the ball at the circle and not the top of the key.

Then Vonleh with the slam! Nice start.

 

[ISpySmurfy]

Starting Pat will be interesting. I could see him working really well to space the floor. He needs to prove that he can hold his own defensively though.

 

[Darkwebs]

Nurk and Noah have great chemistry

 

[TBpup]

Ugh....then CJ with the double clutch when Vonleh would have had another jam.

 

[Cippy91]

Oh look, a decent start

 

[SIeepwalker]

BEAUTIFUL OFFENSE !

 

[TBpup]

Vonleh returns the favor with the assist to Nurk for the jam.

 

[DUB]

Camby to Aldridge was my favourite combination a few seasons ago, Nurkic to Vonleh could develop into my new favourite.

Or Vonleh to Nurkic!

 

[SIeepwalker]

Aaaaaaand fuck you Dame

 

[SIeepwalker]

I can't believe we are having a good start
