Game Thread GAME# 31: BLAZERS @ NUGGETS - FEBRUARY 23, 2021 - TUESDAY, 7:00, TNT

[AldoTrapani]

Dame has terrible body language

 

[BlazerBeav]

Play Nas they say. Bricks a three then falls asleep on the boards.

 

[riverman]

Enes is defending Jokic about as good as you can...he's going to power through and get his

 

[B-Roy]

Carmelol not boxing out.

 

[julius]

The effort on defense and for loose balls is just not there. again.

 

[James lamphear]

Again just standing there watching for someone to grab a rebound.

 

[Scalma]

Kanter lol

 

[THE HCP]

Bro, there is a Denver forum on here. Ask @SlyPokerDog for the link.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Jesus Christ Kanter cannot see Jokic whatsoever on the post

 

[Tince]

Enes is defending Jokic about as good as you can...he's going to power through and get his

Agreed. Hard to fault Kanter. It's just too bad he's our best option.

 

[TBpup]

Jokic puts his shoulder right into the middle of Kanter's rib cage. That shouldn't be a foul on Enes.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Play Nas they say. Bricks a three then falls asleep on the boards.

Don’t worry he won’t play much

 

[James lamphear]

Terrible shot melo

That describes much of the Blazers on D this came. All of them more veteran than Nas.

Melo just completely whiffed on MPJ, then airballs a '3'.

For those of us who have him on ignore, please don't take a screen shot!

 

[Cugel]

Our defensive effort is just embarrassing. Who is holding us accountable?

Stotts has said he doesn't believe in benching players for poor performance.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Man Dame complains a lot

 

[DDolla]

Blowout game again... this is why the Wizards game hurts. Should have won that game

 

[B-Roy]

Melo plays no defense, air balls a 3.

 

[Tince]

Stotts has said he doesn't believe in benching players for poor performance.

I don't think he said that, if we're trying to be accurate.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Called it then. Said we got a big losing streak coming

 

[Cugel]

Melo can't be bothered with defense.

 

[James lamphear]

Man Dame complains a lot

Most star does in this league.

 

[riverman]

The no calls on Dame and Enes are piling up...Dame is pissed...he's getting mauled...Enes has 3 guys climbing his back in the paint...no free throws

 

[twobullz]

Denver with 0 turnovers or fouls in the first quarter. Dm with 3 turnovers and the team has 4. Need to value the ball more.

 

[VenomXL]

Shitty start. They’ll need a good second quarter because I don’t see a big comeback in the cards given the situation.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Most star does in this league.

Yea but he completely gives up running back then when the screen comes he doesn’t even care to fight it. That 29 year old rookie showed him

 

[Cugel]

I don't think he said that, if we're trying to be accurate.

IIRC he said this is the pros and he doesn't punish players.

 

[AldoTrapani]

And please don’t say we’ll beat the lakers this is not the same team from last week. Something happened during that wizards game. It’s like they lost each other

 

[Chris Craig]

Melo can't be bothered with defense.

He's gonna have to defend Jokic soon
