Game Thread Game #26 - BLAZERS @ GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS - DECEMBER 8, 2021 - WEDNESDAY - 7:00 PM (PDT) ESPN

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

We got these guys right where we want them.
They're way overconfident and don't think we have a chance.

Hmm. I must be a Warrior.

 

[tester551]

When do the injury reports typically come out?
Last I saw, both Little & Ant were 'day to day'.

I'd love to see this team run w/o CJ for a few weeks. Dame/Norm in the starting back court + Little/RoCo (or Nance) as starting forwards + Nurk.

You know if you have another favorite team, maybe you shouldn’t be posting in this forum FAMS!

I’d plan on tonight’s game having one of those summer league vibes for us.

What are the odds Curry gets the record tonight? Can you bet on it? Seems impossible but given this defense, stranger things have happened. He can easily make three 3s per quarter. So that's 12. He goes on a run and it could happen. 16-20 from 3. The ~worst defense/team in the league vs. the best shooter of all time/best team in the league.

Ass whoopin incoming, not even watching.

The record for threes in a game is 13, shared by Curry and Zach LaVine. At a minimum, I think it would require an overtime game, maybe a double overtime game. And Curry would have to be blazing.

I think the chances are well under a percent, but it's not theoretically impossible.

klay hit 14 in a game

 

[Minstrel]

klay hit 14 in a game

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. So it's plausible, just very unlikely.

 

[Scalma]

Can we at least get Nas and Simons please

it's just disrespectful how many people are talking about him doing it today. i really hope the team sees this.

I still don't think people are talking about it because of Portland. Just because this is the first game where an insane game could do it. I feel pretty sure it would be discussed no matter the opponent.

 

[Strenuus]

I dont find it disrespectful at all.

We suck at covering 3s, half our team is out... if any game where someone could hit 16 it'd be this night. Lol.

 

[Shaboid]

Glad this in on ESPN so that the entire nation can see this tailspin on primetime.

they wouldn't be saying this if it were Phoenix or Brooklyn facing GS tonight.

i take it you didn't watch the end of the boston game. made me sick to my stomach. would not be Lol-ing if we saw a repeat of that.

You're right but if I was Chauncey I'd be like, "Not on my watch" and I would have Norm on Steph the entire game with doubles whenever he needs them. Just fucking shut Steph down for the night. Let the Warriors fuck us up everywhere else, we're not likely to win the game but do everything you can to hold Steph under double digits... not double digit threes I mean under ten points for talking about dropping 16 threes on us.

Chauncey was on a team that would constantly goal tend to keep an opponent from seeing the ball go through the hoop during a long drought their defense was causing. That's some coldblooded shit and we need some of that attitude, even if it's in a loss.

Agreed. I'm just thinking from a "on paper" standpoint lol.

I just don't expect much from this team until the changes come, so it is what it is lol.

 

[Minstrel]

I disagree--especially if it were Brooklyn, who has never even looked like they can contain Curry. But even if it were Phoenix, a sub-topic would be "Can Curry break the record?" From now on, it'll probably be mentioned every game til he does it.

exactly. i want to see pride. don't get clowned.

 

[riverman]

Seems CJ's injury is worse than expected: collapsed lung. Sounds serious. Probably a couple weeks???

I've heard it's more like 6-9 weeks but the good news is it isn't a basketball injury that will be reinjured easily or have that kind of risk like a knee or ankle

 

[Chris Craig]

Nas and Ant may play tomorrow. I want to watch just to see the young guys play.

They are both out

We shall see

Hopefully some of them play. We need them
