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

[James lamphear]

That was pretty weak with the ball siimoms

 

[riverman]

Thats what happens when your a Blazer

It just seems worse than ever this season

 

[illmatic99]

this can get ugly quick

 

[AldoTrapani]

Simons should always be loyal to the Blazers organization they LOOOVE him for no reason

 

[Tince]

Would you interpret poor shooting as poor performance?

Personally, I would not, that would be too simplistic. I've seen Draymond Green with what I consider to be great performances on poor shooting nights.

The statements I heard Stotts make was more in line that he believes in larger bodies of work as predictors of future success in comparison to a 2-3 game trend.

 

[James lamphear]

We are shooting 27 percent from the 3.

[BlazerBeav]

Melo keeping us alive.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Hood and Simons kill the Blazers. These guys need to get traded for anything

 

[TBpup]

Again....Trent WIDE OPEN on an actual cut to the hoop. But because the Blazers don't look for it, he has to cut back out and the easy opportunity is gone.

 

[AldoTrapani]

This 29 year old rookie is killing Simons

 

[Tince]

Melo & Kanter 8-9. The rest of the team, 6-22.

 

[bobf]

Blazers lack mental discipline. This entire lead is composed of stupid plays.
Dame throwing the ball away on overly risk passes
Dame falling down trying to draw fouls then not getting back on D
Trent taking garbage twos early in the shot clock
Not hustling for D rebounds letting them hit the floor

 

[James lamphear]

Simons dribbling to much but then you don't have anyone moving.

 

[bobf]

Always looks like an ocean to Carmelo

 

[Darkwebs]

Melo Time!

 

[BlazerBeav]

Meloooooooooo!

 

[DDolla]

I’m just here to read some Melo hater comments

 

[TBpup]

Melo turning back the clock!

 

[Tince]

Terrible shot melo

Must've been the one shot he missed out of ths 7 he's taken?

 

[AldoTrapani]

Let’s go “protect his legacy”!!!

 

[VenomXL]

Melo is on one right now.

 

[Scalma]

Melo babyyy

 

[LayneStaley]

I love Melo

 

[riverman]

Melo putting us back in this...

 

[VenomXL]

Vintage. Older the berry the sweeter the juice!

 

[Chris Craig]

Waiting a long time to bring back in Lillard

 

[blazerkor]

This is what I think Melo's role should be. Bring him in, see if he's hot, ride with him until he's not and then sit his ass down.

 

[B-Roy]

This is fools gold. He’s going to shoot us right back out of the game.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Waiting a long time to bring back in Lillard

we’ve been able to sit him and cut the lead while doing it thanks to Melo. Good deal!
