Game Thread GAME# 24: 76ERS @ BLAZERS - FEBRUARY 11, 2021 - THURSDAY, 7:00, TNT

I swear this dude simply cannot make a dunk. He can jump outta the gym but somehow he has never learned how to leave that orange sphere in the cylinder.

I haven’t seen him make one in traffic yet. So how did he have such good efficiency pre blazers?

 

[Serbian]

Doc Rivers knows how to guard Dame

It also helps having elite 6-10 defender in simmons. He is by far the best defender of all guards and its not close he got serious serious length but also Dame shot stoped falling

Btw, none of you can get on the bandwagon about the jerseys now.

blazers are undefeated when their jerseys say "Oregon"!...fuck you portland!

It felt so good to win after hearing the commentators jack off the 76ers all night. They forgot this was Portland, and the 76ers were playing the Blazers.

 

[jlprk]

The 76ers have great size. Embiid is 4-5 inches taller than Kanter. Kanter is no 7-footer.

 

[TBpup]

sweeping

So you're sayin' we are going to sweep them in the Finals. I like it!

 

[kjironman1]

Huge win! Vote Melo in the ASG.

I have been.

 

[jlprk]

In the first half, the referees were biased for the 76ers. But in the 2nd half, they weren't. The Mafia guy who paid them off tried to save money by getting the game decided for half the price.

 

[Strenuus]

I have never hated you more than right now.

Blazers sweep the season series over the 76ers with a huge 4th quarter performance by Carmelo Anthony! The Blazers Uprise Postgame Show starts now:

 

[LayneStaley]

I’m starting to think The Turk might be more important to keep around than Nurk. We are never gonna play D obviously and Kanter is the better offensive rebounder and scorer, things that compliment Stotts style of play.

 

[OneSport3]

We have plenty of talent on the roster even with the injuries. Hope Nassir can come back soon.

I know we have enough talent to not be the 28th ranked defense. That’s the frustrating part.

Doc Rivers knows how to guard Dame

he hasn't had much success against Dame's team!

Can't even enjoy the win for 30 minutes!

 

[DDolla]

I’m just here waiting for some Melo hater

 

[Strenuus]

I have never loved you more than right now.

Wait.. QRT........

This , this, and this!

They popped their heads back out after he missed 2 straight shots.

Wait.. QRT........

LEAVE ME ALONE. I'M TRYING! LOL!

 

[PCmor7]

RoCo starting to be the kind of contributor I hoped he'd be. Still not worth two firsts, but he seems to be finding his role and making bigger and bigger defensive plays each game.

 

[Tince]

Beating Doc Rivers.....never gets old.

Glenn Rivers!

 

[THE HCP]

Didn't read the thread yet, going to but I'll just leave this here.......
Melo is old and has been pretty shit all season, that said......

Tolliver/Mario/Bazemore/Nas.......NONE of them get the calls and respect Melo gets, from other players and the refs. He didn't deserve that call when he fell down at the end of the game, but got the whistle. DAME WANTS HIM ON THE FLOOR WITH HIM STRUGGLES AND ALL, NO MATTER HOW MUCH HE IS HATED ON IN HERE.

 

[PCmor7]

Apparently Blevins is helping Sly make the postgame memes.

 

[Strenuus]

LEAVE ME ALONE. I'M TRYING! LOL!

Lmfao when I read that I was so happy... and then I saw that and got so sad.

Then I realized I was getting sad that one letter in an abbreviation was off... and I know I need help.

 

[kjironman1]

I haven’t seen him make one in traffic yet. So how did he have such good efficiency pre blazers?

I honestly don't know?
It might help if the Blazers had a player that could actually toss up a lob now and then? This isn't entirely Jones's fault.

 

[Chris Craig]

Those assholes were showing the Korkmaz game winner last year before the 76ers last possession. That pissed me off.

 

[Tince]

I honestly don't know?

He's missed a few off the dribble, like tonight.

He's so weak, any contact gets him off course... tonight, he took off from like 10ft!
