He may have a point, but isn't the video team responsible for the replays on the screen his employees?

I think he's saying that the replays didn't prove enough to overturn it, not that they didn't physically see the replay.

Well he has plenty of money if he needs eye surgeries...

This is a reply to that tweet.
Just to be fair the original foul was on the arm and not on body contact. So I think they could only review the strip. Which was clean. Also I am not sure you can call the body contact a foul anyway in that specific situation.

 

[Wade Garrett]

I noticed you calling Whiteside lazy and then he had a put back dunk and then shut down Doncic on the other end and got the rebound.

Or are your rules you're trying to impose on other people not in effect when you do it?

Guess I missed on that one.
My first this year.

Sore LOSER

Didn't seem like a complaint. More like a suggestion. I agree with him. Would be nice to hear why it was overturned or not

 

[Cugel]

cuban...smh
wow big surprise that he doesn't agree with the call.
how about the shitty tip from portzingas that went right to baze? Or how about letting a team back in the game from 20 down. That is the real crime.

 

[Mediocre Man]

So who is starting at PF while Zach is out? LaMarcus is gonna cook whoever we put out there.

LMA struggles against smaller, quicker players.

You also failed to mention his putback slam on CJ's miss.
C'mon man..if you wanna diss me get it all in there!

 

[DDolla]

Good News

If the roles were reversed this place would go ballistic

 

[BigGameDamian]

Not sure if you guys have noticed but Kevin Love is playing well so far. One assist away from a triple double last night.

ya not sure why he's taken the role of forum police

Blazers won this game after realizing they could just switch everything. Even if Porzingis gets switched onto Bazemore or something the Mavericks offense would rather shoot a step back three than give Porzingis an easy post touch.

Here’s why it was overturned, it was all ball.

We are already down three centers...... you want to trade another one to get him?

 

[Pinwheel1]

Oh good, Terry put Mario in instead of Skal so we have no size or rebounding and let Dallas get away with their small lineup.

Mario seems to be a decent rebounder. He was 2nd on the team tonight with 8. I am not sure rebounding will be an issue with him.

 

[Jon]

Tolliver was a -15 in 3 min. Complete trash.

 

[Titan]

Good News

I think it went down like this

 

[illmatic99]

 

[AldoTrapani]

Not in this case. I know you were probably banned for the 48th time but we discussed this for months.

im sorry I think your mistaken

 

[Jade Falcon]

I fell asleep back on page 19. I was just too exhausted.

2 point win? I'll take it. I'll update "The Other Side" when I feel like it.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Hezonja, two great plays!

He knows how to grab a rebound and hold onto it. Collins should take note.

 

[Hoopguru]

Man, just saw the mavs shot 50 threes to our 22.

 

[42N8Bounce]

It's never too early to break out the 'Games Over 500' graph!



Even with the opening game loss, the Blazers equal last year's record after 3 games at 2-1.

Let's keep those Ws coming!

 

[B-Roy]

Man, just saw the mavs shot 50 threes to our 22.

Ended shooting 26%. I think they missed a lot of good looks, but there was also one too many Luka stepbacks. 2/11 on threes is Westbrick like.

its what dame and cj were combined

 

[B-Roy]

Sure, but Dame and CJ stopped shooting threes when they knew it wasn't falling.

 

[Labinot41]

By my math, Denver, Sacramento and Dallas had overall 119 three point attempts and have made 46, which is 38.6%, thats not good Defense but also not terrible. Small Sample size

 

[joeBlazers]

CJ ... the master of the midrange. CJ recognized today: the midrange game is a weapon.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I was thinking Stotts should have used that challenge earlier but i guess that is why he is the coach. Worked out good. Glad he saved it.

I think he is using them correctly; usually near the end in a close game. Some would say a coach might end up not being able to use it if he waits; but i think you can count on the refs making mistakes right up to the end.
