Game Thread GAME# 21: BLAZERS @ CLIPPERS - DECEMBER 3, 2019 - TUESDAY, 7:00 PM, TNT

There look uninsured what they want to do right now. Good time by Stotts.

 

[VanillaGorilla]

Marv Albert is fucking senile. How does he still have this job

 

[Jade Falcon]

It must be nice to have a competent coach who has a strong opening out of half time....

 

[theprunetang]

You said Paul George will go cold.
Now you're mocking me?
There are at least two other places to send the help/double off of that don't include the guy on the opposite block nor the guy camping at the most efficient spot to take a 3 pointer from.
If you could actually shoot you'd understand this. Instead you don't therefore I'll type what you type to so many people so often.
If you don't like my posts, put me on ignore Eric.

But Eric hit 3 3 pointers in a row at the Rose Garden. I watched it.

At some point me might start wondering if it’s time for Carmelo to also think about retiring. If he doesn’t feel like he has to put any pressure on his defender.

 

[KingSpeed]

I don't really agree that Portland broke up the team. Sure, they had roster turnover, but exchanging the 5th player in the rotation is just rearranging the deck chairs. Breaking up the team might be more along the lines of breaking up the core, and Portland only has 3 players in the core...and one is injured

The only rotation players from last year at this time are Dame and CJ. We completely broke up last year's team.

 

[TBpup]

Marv needs to retire yesterday

His 'rug' retired years ago if that helps.

 

[HailBlazers]

Call it both ways refs!

 

[TBpup]

Even Webber talking about how little the Blazers pass the ball. Everyone knows it but Stotts.

 

[B-Roy]

ISO iso iso

 

[illmatic99]

I think our defensive strategy against George is to just hope n pray that he misses

 

[H.C.]

So the last quarter we did that, he dropped 20 on us. You're ok with that?

If you are implying something, then stating something, you are not repeating yourself.

You keep asking the same question. I keep repeating my original post.
Eventually you'll read it right?

So is it our gameplan this game to give up the most efficient 3 pointer and hope they can't make the shot?

 

[KingSpeed]

charging on Harden. ball game lol

 

[hoopsjock]

Same story as soon as we play a good team and get down this team always resorts back to iso ball.

 

[AldoTrapani]

This is why I don’t get happy when we went 3-0 against those garbage ass teams this past week

 

[TBpup]

Clippers with good ball movement.....WIDE OPEN shot.
Blazers continue to go Iso Iso Iso.......tough, contested shot.

This doesn't seem to be rocket science.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Damn that was okc houston Melo right there lol

 

[HailBlazers]

Melo pushed in the back

 

[hoopsjock]

So Kawhi can push off on one end but you can't touch him in the post on the other end?

 

[Tince]

So far we haven't doubled him in the 3rd. Your strategy is working perfectly!

 

[KingSpeed]

Rockets lose.

 

[Tince]

I stand corrected. Hood came and doubled, got the steal, and lead to a fastbreak.

 

[blazerfan11]

Why don’t the Blazers always play like they did in the first quarter against OKC when they passed the ball well and scored 42 points?

 

[hoopsjock]

@Blazers1977 with one of the worst posts of all-time in this forum that "Paul George sucks" and is now nowhere to be found.

 

[HailBlazers]

Rockets lose.

Wrong thread boss.

 

[KingSpeed]

Exactly.

 

[James lamphear]

No movement out of our offense at all.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Why don’t the Blazers always play like they did in the first quarter against OKC when they passed the ball well and scored 42 points?

Because they do that stuff on accident

 

[KingSpeed]

Let's see how he finishes this game.

@Blazers1977 with one of the worst posts of all-time in this forum that "Paul George sucks" and is now nowhere to be found.

Because the Clippers start 5 defenders that would be 5 of the best 6 defenders on the Thunder. The Clippers are very good, OKC is not; that makes a big difference.
