Game Thread GAME# 26: BLAZERS @ CLIPPERS - DECEMBER 12, 2016 - MONDAY, 7:30 PM (PDT), NBATV & CSNNW

[KingSpeed]

Is it just me or do I never get excited until the final buzzer with almost any lead, or run? I just feel like I have to wait...

Live in the moment and enjoy when it's going well

Heh, how ironic.

 

[Nikolokolus]

We've held them to 14 in second quarter with 2 minutes to play. Keep up.

My feed is on a delay.

 

[Darkwebs]

What's up with Plums? Somebody must've turned his defensive sliders up to 99

 

[Darkwebs]

WE COMPETE!

 

[Cippy91]

Never thought I would see plumlee and his damn T. rex arms get 4 blocks

 

[HailBlazers]

Can't decide who the better passer is

 

[Scalma]

Lillard will have to get literally decapitated to get a call tonight.

 

[VenomXL]

Dame just isn't drawing fouls on these drives.

 

[Darkwebs]

Never thought I would see plumlee and his damn T. rex arms get 4 blocks

He must've been bombarded with cosmic rays and now has the same powers as Mr. Fantastic!

 

[Trackjack]

Why did Dame shoot so quick in shot clock bad clock management.

 

[Strenuus]

Yes I seen it last season. It's not a coincidence I was right. If anything I was saying this when it wasn't the popular thing to say.

The problems were always there. Aminu can't shoot, yes he had a good year last year but the regression to the mean was bound to happen. He should be a specialist that focuses on his strengthens which is defense.

Plumlee god bless him is not a starting center. He's a solid backup center around 15-20 min MAX.

We needed a good two years (last year and this) for the lottery. Dame and Cj are not that old. Idk why you guys were in such a hurry and didn't see the major cracks.

Olshey is damn good at drafting. He would have done much better there

So can you answer me a question? An honest question. How come whenever we do good, in game threads you're nowhere to be seen, in win streaks you're nowhere to be seen...

Honest question. It's fine to be right NOW, but you never showed up when we won last year, just when we lost. Why can you not do both? If you were here during both, you probably wouldn't get nearly as much flak. But you duck when we do good only.

 

[riverman]

Best we've played collectively in a stretch! Beat a team with a winning record tonight Good Guys!!!

 

[VenomXL]

Ouch. Tough shot by Griffin.

 

[KingSpeed]

Second quarter

Blazers 33
Clippers 18

 

[Scalma]

Plumlee is infuriating defensively. His shorter arms shouldn't prevent him from being an above average defensive player. He's smart, can jump, can move laterally, and is fairly strong.

 

[HailBlazers]

Lillard will have to get literally decapitated to get a call tonight.

Let's hope it doesn't come to that. Seriously though as long as they continue to call it both ways it's alll good. There's nothing worse than ticky tack calls and they seem to be letting em play tonight.

 

[The Professional Fan]

Plumdog, yo....what the fuck?!?!

MORE PLEASE

That's not true

 

[Trackjack]

Play good D in spurts and great balance scoring this half.

They're definitely letting the clippers play, I agree.

 

[Strenuus]

That's not true

When we've done good at times this year, you never showed up.

When we did good last year, you were never there. We've even mentioned you several times. The only times you came back to talk was when we finally got a loss... we would win 6 straight and we would not see you in any threads.

You talk about coincidences... that one I am highly doubting is..

It's a valid question. It may not be -all- the time, but, 90% is probably fairly accurate.

 

[illmatic99]

Another half against CP where dame gets no FTs. Fucking criminal

 

[Darkwebs]

Plumlee is all like

Spoiler

 

[illmatic99]

Plums trade value is at an all time high

 

[Cippy91]

I barely saw tunchi in here when we made the playoffs and 2nd round just saying. Now that we aren't good he posts as many times as he can. I try to find the balance between positive and negative but tunchi is all out negative which is fine but it kind of fucks your points over

Best game thread post ever dude!

You spend too much time talking about him. You've figured him out so why go on and on about it? I bet he loves it.

 

[SheedSoNasty]

You know how the NBA has mediocre players around the league that always seem to light up the Blazers? Mason Plumlee is that player for the Clippers. If he were to play against them every night, he'd be an all-star.

Being negative is fine. How you go about being negative is a different story.
