Game Thread GAME# 22: NUGGETS @ BLAZERS - NOVEMBER 30, 2018 - FRIDAY, 7:30 PM , ESPN & NBCSNW

[Chris Craig]

Ene of the Game Notes:

Fuck Fuck Fuck Fuck Fuck

Turner played too many minutes. Both his defense and offense were terrible. He killed our offense and stared at defenders as they made shots or stupidly fouled them.

Stauskas got little time. He brought energy into the game and was benched. Stotts is not using him effectively.

Blazers got destroyed on assists and the boards.

Blazers the best FT shooting team missed several free throws.

Stotts couldn't adjust. The broken play at the end was his fault.

The refs love getting air time

The Thuggets are no jokic

 

[Gronk Brady]

Exactly my point. You just repeat the same tired point because of a loss that contradicts your point. I hope you ar the silliness in that, and grow from it.

I really hope you don’t settle for mediocrity in life like the Blazers do in basketball

 

[H.C.]

So, with 6.9 secs you are in the same situation I just described - but with less time to set up a good shot.

We disagree on what the best approach would have been. If you had said this in the first place, I would have just agreed to disagree and moved on. Your vitriol was ridiculous.

No screw that, you called CJ a selfish player for not jacking up a contested 3 and taking the easy 2 instead with TIME AND TIMEOUTS.
You have no approach.

Like I said, some of the worst posts in a game thread I've ever seen on this forum.

As @KingSpeed coined.
Learn the game, then post.

Also guys you gotta remember the reason Turner plays a lot is minutes is based on salary. It’s why Layman doesn’t play and Turner or say Harkless no matter how shitty they are will always get playing time

 

[Jade Falcon]

Are there good prospects in the middle of the 2019 draft?

Oh I'm sure there's a 6'1" High School Guard somewhere.....

 

[kjironman1]

Did anyone else notice that Denver seemed to get an awful lots of lucky bounces. I mean they even got one rebound off CJ's face?

 

[kjironman1]

And how many game winners has he missed

I do remember one other solid open game winner he missed. But not many.

LOL! The team loses and your response is to go after other fans just because they disagree with you. Tell you what, put me on ignore and find someone else to try to bully into silence.

Bones is a huge fan of this team. He likes the Dame nucleus you can’t knock him for that. That’s his business.

At the same time nobody can deny after this year with another 1st round exit or missing the playoffs all together, this team will be blown up

They are very good and getting better. But tonight it just seemed like an awful lot of lucky bounces seemed to just go their way. I really didn't count them but i watched a bunch.

Keep Dame, Nurk, and Sauce. Everyone else can fuck off.

Except maybe Layman. He's demonstrated that he WANTS to be here, and he's put in the effort to get better.

I'm betting there will be some changes around the trade deadline if at all possible. Then we will see if they make big changes this summer?

Funny all the dire comments. The season is still young. Yes, the Blazers are in a little bit of a funk, but they're only a few games out of 1st. They're going to get it going. This years NBA is full of parity and un predictability for the 1st time in a while. Yes, the losses suck. Shit i'm still in snowy arse Denver and I have to listen to all the BS Monday, but i'm not calling it over like so many in here. I'm moving back to Oregon, screw the snow, and look forward to seeing a game in OUR HOUSE . Go Blazers!! Go kick Benedict Aldridge in the ass Sunday.

Yea I guess u can do that but it’s really not championship caliber regardless.

I personally think we just go full rebuild and try something new and fresh

We're not very likely to get a better PG than Dame. And let's not forget what he's done not just for this team, but for Portland in general.

I agree that there are some things about him that are maddening. But short of Steph Curry leaving GS and coming here, then I say we stick with him.

 

[Gronk Brady]

Spurs and Mavs on the road next 2 Games... this could get ugly fast

This post is highly ironic. I'll let you figure out why. lol.

They’ll do something. This team hasn’t really done shit since LMA left. Yes we beat that clippers team that lost their best 2 players but it’s just been meh since

After this year tho with another 1st round exit it’ll be over. Shit it was almost going to be different after that home court advantage dismantling we got so we just gotta tough it out this year then we can look forward to a whole new direction

At this point, I'm counting on it.

Yea we can stick with him but then what? Why keep him for nostalgic reasons?

Its already ugly

Don’t tell @BonesJones that lol

Well the drop back to reality sure wasn't a gradual one. Turner and Harkless are back to their useless selves.

 

[Scalma]

Put Layman back in the rotation and/or give Trent a shot.

 

[Gronk Brady]

Evan Turner makes $18 mil per year

They are trash Aminu too

One more year. One more year.

Layman is a better option to start the game. Heartless is useless. He can't shoot, and his defense is less than stellar He looks like he's just going through the motions. Usual Harkless mode.
