Game Thread GAME# 31: GRIZZLIES @ BLAZERS - DECEMBER 19, 2018 - WEDNESDAY, 7:00 PM, NBCSNW

[BonesJones]

No the complaint is based on 3 years of the same mediocre forwards.

Why you gotta constantly butt into conversations to argue with me when you dont even understand what I'm saying?

 

[illmatic99]

Conley and someone in the front row have been chirping back and forth.

Same idiot that gets into it with every other guard I'm guessing. I remember Beal and Wall going after someone in that same spot

 

[BlazerBeav]

Some idiot courtside has fired Conley up. Wish someone would do that to our team.

 

[BonesJones]

I understand your point theyve played well lately. The timing is just I think Laymans movement without the ball, and aggressiveness is PERFECT for a match up with Memphis. He’s going to make their defense move.

Harkless moves great without the ball.

 

[trailblazer18]

That was a dumpy way to end the half.

 

[DDolla]

Conley owning Dame right now. Let’s go to the 3rd quarter.

 

[TBpup]

Conley toying with Dame's 'defense'.

 

[BonesJones]

On a night to night basis you cannot count on hark or aminu on offense and be successful

I'm not saying they aren't inconsistent....

 

[julius]

I picked a bad time to remember there was a game tonight. Ooof...

 

[BonesJones]

Guess he'll never learn.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Harkless moves great without the ball.

Sometimes. Kind of Depends on which moe shows up on a given night.

 

[VenomXL]

It’s weird that some ding dong courtside can get a player so amped and playing at a higher level. Happened with Dame earlier this season.

 

[chzbrgr]

I'm not saying they aren't inconsistent....

You’re saying they’re playing well at the moment but we know (like I said earlier) that the moments they are playing well could end at any moment. And that moment looks like tonight imo.

 

[JDC]

Loved the first half from Zach.

Brought energy, toughness and nice to see the decisiveness on the 3 ball

 

[BonesJones]

Sometimes. Kind of Depends on which moe shows up on a given night.

But he also miles ahead defensively. Hes shooting great lately, moving without the ball, and defending, and people are complaining about him. I understand complaining when he doesnt show up, but hes been showing up lately and people are still complaining about him. Just seems silly to me.

 

[DDolla]

I hate Memphis... what a boring team.

 

[BonesJones]

You’re saying they’re playing well at the moment but we know (like I said earlier) that the moments they are playing well could end at any moment. And that moment looks like tonight imo.

Yet even when they play great, people will still complain about the times they play bad.

 

[James lamphear]

Dame not having a good game 4 points 4 turnovers and Conley eating his lunch.

 

[Titan]

There is always one in a crowd I guess

 

[chzbrgr]

Yet even when they play great, people will still complain about the times they play bad.

Cause it’s like 60/40 bad/good! Come on you watch the games, it’s not like these are new players

 

[JDC]

I hate Memphis... what a boring team.

They play hard and smart, JJJ is a great young big and Conley and Gasol's 2 man game chemistry is fun

Different strokes for different folks though I guess.

I understood your point. I didn't realize this was your private chat.

 

[twobullz]

I think with Layman people only remember the couple games he had any offense, they forget all of the games he scored. He is only averaging a half a point more then Moe, but plays worse defense, does not rebound the ball as well. Not sure why all the love for he guy besides he had 2-3 good games this year.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

But he also miles ahead defensively. Hes shooting great lately, moving without the ball, and defending, and people are complaining about him. I understand complaining when he doesnt show up, but hes been showing up lately and people are still complaining about him. Just seems silly to me.

My point was mainly that I think Layman deserves to play, least at the beginning.

 

[JDC]

I'm all for replacing Stuaskas with Layman and letting Curry get more creation opportunities.

Moe should start though imo

 

[trailblazer18]

The caption contest bonus game is a barn burner at half, 2 assists each.

 

[wizenheimer]

how do you guys find time for the constant & continuing arguments during a game? I guess I must be a slow at typing

 

[James lamphear]

We had 12 turnovers and 7 assist and 4 came from the 2nd unit. They need to get back ball movement and player movement.

3 Screens!

I always wonder the same. I either have to wait for a dead ball to post or miss some game action to post, and I don't want to do that.
