Game Thread GAME# 3: BLAZERS @ MAVERICKS - OCTOBER 27, 2019 - SUNDAY, 4:00 PM, NBCSNW

[LayneStaley]

It’s about time for Stotts to put in Tolliver isn’t it?

 

[Wade Garrett]

Smart enough to spell Blazers

Ooh...
Got me.
Good for you!

 

[The Professional Fan]

We need to talk about Hezonia

 

[VenomXL]

Every damn game with these opponent threes.

 

[JoshuaHall]

Lol we are so bad at defending the 3pt line

 

[Chris Craig]

Basketball Is the IBS of sports... so many runs

Except when they are constipated

 

[DDolla]

Not sure why we can’t defend the 3? We gave a back to back 3 after a timeout

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Bazemore cannot finish for shit

 

[GhostOfPGA]

Fuck me man. We can’t defend the three AT ALL.

 

[kjironman1]

Mario needs to hit that shot. CJ good open look pass.

 

[Jade Falcon]

Jesus Christ. My browser freezes up for literally 45 seconds, and suddenly we're 10 down. The fuck?

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Lol we are so bad at defending the 3pt line

All they seem to do is wave at the three-point shooter and hope that works...

 

[Jade Falcon]

Fuck me man. We can’t defend the three AT ALL.

It's been an ongoing problem for years. Blame Olshey and Stotts for not addressing it.

 

[LayneStaley]

I’m getting a little worried we were more talented last season.

 

[kjironman1]

Looks like Stotts jumped on the TO pretty quick? Well for Stotts.....

 

[hoopsjock]

Hezonja HAS to hit those open 3's on this team.

Bazemore HAS to finish if he's gonna drive like that.

 

[AldoTrapani]

I am really hoping this isn't the case and I'm not ready to fully commit to this theory but they are playing so far like making it to the WCF last year made them think they don't have to work as hard this year to be good. Like they let off the pedal when they "arrived". You gotta keep doing the little things and working hard.


They had like $60 million in expiring contracts to give the Knicks and 2 future 1sts. If a team decides to be dumb like that this year we could do the same. But do you have to post the same thing multiple times, Tunchi?

Mann I hope we find a dumb team

 

[Wade Garrett]

Smh. Tolliver guarded Porzingas and was a complete non-factor on that end, and on the boards. If he played good D and Porzingis still hit, then fine. But he didnt.

Defending the guy who's a -30 in 27 minutes this year probably isnt a hill you want to die on.

See the big 4 quarter, 82 game picture.

 

[BonesJones]

See the big 4 quarter, 82 game picture.

So we have to have the guy play terrible for 82 games before we can point out how he's terrible?

 

[GhostOfPGA]

Hezonja and Tolliver are minimum contract players for a reason. They make Aminu and Harkless look like gods.

 

[hoopsjock]

FUCK GUARD THE FUCKING 3 POINT LINE!

 

[BonesJones]

Still cant guard the 3pt line.

 

[LayneStaley]

These red unis are ugly.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Damn this Doncic guy

 

[VenomXL]

More threes.

 

[kjironman1]

Yeah they need to call a few of those on Dallas. About time

 

[BonesJones]

This defense is pathetic. Holy shit. So much talk about playing good defense and were horrible.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Fuck me man. We can’t defend the three AT ALL.

it’s all good we’ll get better

 

[GhostOfPGA]

it’s all good we’ll get better

Can’t get much worse

 

[AldoTrapani]

Why the fuck does Doncic always laugh when he makes it? He’s a bitch
