Game Thread GAME# 3: BLAZERS @ BUCKS - OCTOBER 21, 2017 - SATURDAY, 5:30 (PDT), NBCSNW

[Sinobas]

I hope these referees get fucking sickle cell anemia

 

[ripcityboy]

Defense is fucking great. The Freak is pretty much unstoppable even if you play him tight. Just need to get CJ hot nd get Nurk rolling

 

[Cippy91]

I'm not at all down on Nurk.

The guy lost 35 lbs, and I'm pretty sure it was the team that wanted him to.

I'm not sure the advantage, other than he's lighter and more mobile (perhaps). He's clearly not looking comfortable playing BIG, though.

I sat through a few seasons yelling at the TV when Pippen played like a guard (and wasn't very good at it). It worked out in the end, though. Nurk clearly has the IQ, he'll come around.

I’m not all down on him either but for fucks sake some posters on here have a hard cock for him 24/7

 

[Trackjack]

We are in reach and been pretty good 2nd half team this year so hope it continue tonight.

 

[Chris Craig]

Bucket doesn’t count but it did for giannis earlier, okay...

Yeah that should have been continuation...fucking refs

lol, no I just understand basketball. Offense is not everything.

 

[blue9]

Looks like Aminu had a good game yesterday and now he thinks he can ball. He can’t.

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

This game needs more CJ. His craftiness can beat the Bucks length.

The Example needs to get hot in the third like he did at Indiana if we want to come out with a win tonight.

 

[Denny Crane]

Stotts played a tight 8 man rotation so far. Nurk played only ~16 minutes. He's on pace for 12/8 and 2 blocks. It's not monstrous, statistically, but it isn't crap either.

 

[kjironman1]

Tough winning on the road. They will not get calls. We already know this. Have to beat them without the calls.

3 games in 4 nights on the road, 2nd of a back to back.

 

[Chris Craig]

Down by 5...nothing

Bucks are on a back to back too

That to but really I ain't going with the B2B thing. This is the 3rd game of the season.

 

[blue9]

Bucks are on a back to back too

And actually played against NBA caliber opponents once!

At home, FWIW. They at least get to sleep in their own beds and don't have to travel.

Reminds me of something Jimmy Johnson once said. "If you put the game in the hands of the referees you know your gunna lose." Don't think that guy ever got credit for being as smart as he is.

 

[PDXFonz]

Ya'll shut up about Nurk. We're three games in.

I'd rather they keep talking so I can clown on them when they sing his praises later!

 

[GrandJury]

Lillard just needs to keep feeding Cj

 

[Trackjack]

We are getting beat in the paint 24-10 and there shooting over 50 percent on fg and 3 point line this can't happen in the 2nd half if we expected us to pull this out.

 

[Labinot41]

Nurkic trash af. We need another big men

 

[BigGameDamian]

Memphis 83 Golden State 69. Curry has 5 fouls.

[Chris Craig]

And actually played against NBA caliber opponents once!

[BonesJones]

Lmao gtfo rook. He's not playing well but he's far from trash.

 

[ripcityboy]

Close down on the passing lanes.

No turnovers.

Ummm..... give me free beer.
