Game Thread GAME# 21: MAGIC @ BLAZERS - NOVEMBER 28, 2018 - WEDNESDAY, 7:00 PM, NBATV & NBCSNW

[Rozay]

Time to show we learned our lesson and dominate the third.

Something is going on behind the scenes. The team doesn’t seem engaged defensively and they seem really uninterested out there

 

[julius]

I see they're in mid-season form, for a Stotts coached team. Play crappy at home against teams they shouldn't lose to.

 

[James lamphear]

Losing at home to the Magic without their best player... what is the excuse this time?? This team is pathetic and will not win a playoff series

What do you mean continue to play like this we won't have to worry about loosing in the playoffs because we won't make it.

Didn’t play very well on the road lately either

 

[Jade Falcon]

Paul Allen picked a bad time to leave us. Terry needs to be fired, and nobody is going to do it now.

Orlando is playing well. Warriors needed 49 from Durant to beat them. We need to guard the perimeter in the second half and we’ll be ok. Our three point shot is falling.

 

[TBpup]

Giving up almost 60% shooting....after 2 days off and a loooong film session. This is NOT the response I was hoping for after a 3-game losing streak. This year looks like last year which looked like the year before.

 

[James lamphear]

Well I guess the 45 minutes film session was completed failure.

 

[illmatic99]

our defense is awful

 

[KingSpeed]

I don’t get some of you. You think we suck but at the same time think we should beat teams like Orlando. Are we good or not?

 

[TBpup]

And then the flaw in the theory was realized...

Game not over yet.

The last time I looked we don't have Durant playing for us.

We have been sucking against good to very good teams. No matter what, I expect them to beat the sucky Magic at home when Orlando is playing it's 3rd game in 4 nights.

Yeah, the last few seasons have kind of just blended together.

Beyond ready for a significant shakeup of some kind.

Let’s see. Third quarter was problem last game. Let’s see if they fix that.

 

[H.C.]

Get to watch the second half. Go Blazers.

 

[H.C.]

Looks like Portland needs to play some defense.
Sauce 5-8 from three? Well role players do play better @ home than away.

Orlando is not sucky. They’re loaded with young talent and will probably make playoffs. Over the season, we have not sucked against good teams. We have a very good record against .500 or better teams. Despite losing to Bucks & Clippers recently, we did beat them earlier in season.

 

[KingSpeed]

The last time I looked we don't have Durant playing for us.

Exactly. That’s why Orlando is tough for us. They’re a very good team.

 

[Rozay]

Paul Allen picked a bad time to leave us. Terry needs to be fired, and nobody is going to do it now.

Or maybe he left at the perfect time the way this shit team has been playing latley

 

[tykendo]

Where's Layman? Heartless hasn't done JACK SQUAT to earn the starting position. I'm done with Heartless. At least Jake brings some energy and shooting. Heartless is his same ol' dead lead britches out there. And he aint doing squat on defense either. Meyers has gone back to being slow mo again as well. C'mon Stotts.

They are below .500 in the crappy East.....to me, that sucks.

And thanks for the scoreboard update. We got destroyed by 71 points in back-to-back losses. That also is sucking.

 

[KingSpeed]

Beyond ready for a significant shakeup of some kind.

Blended together? Two seasons ago, we were 41-41. Last year, we jumped to 49-33. This year, we have a very good record against tough schedule. Pelicans swept us last year, yes, but this year, they may not make it.

Agree.

 

[H.C.]

Seems like some posters saying Orlando sucks need to update them self on basketball around the league.
Orlando before they got annihilated by a top Western Conference team in Denver. They pushed Toronto to the limit. Before that they beat the Lakers, 6ers, and Knicks.

The east is still the weaker conference but they are no gimmy games. Especially early in the season when every team believes they can make the playoffs.

 

[James lamphear]

Game not over yet.

Your right but I figured if they was going show something from film session you would figure it be the 1st half.

 

[KingSpeed]

East isn’t crappy at the top half. We have yet to play crappy East teams: Hawks, Bulls, Cavs.

Blended together? Two seasons ago, we were 41-41. Last year, we jumped to 49-33. This year, we have a very good record against tough schedule. Pelicans swept us last year, yes, but this year, they may not make it.

Record may have been different but overall, two years ago was about average, last year was about average and so far, this year is looking like about average.

 

[LuckyShot]

Missed the first half and going to miss most of the 3rd at least. But WTF, we're playing shitty ass Orlando AT HOME, Dame is shooting well and Stauskus hitting 5 threes off the bench, and we're still sucking hind tit? FUCK, get your shit together, guys. Bet we let Vucevic doink us for 40 again... I hate Stotts so much sometimes.
