Game Thread GAME# 31: SPURS @ BLAZERS - DECEMBER 20, 2017 - WEDNESDAY, 7:00 PM (PST), NBCSNW

[Nikolokolus]

Napier has really been growing on me

 

[Boise Blazer]

I swear it seems like Pop has 2 extra timeouts per game because he always seems to call timeouts at the right time haha

 

[Strenuus]

Man, you really know Dame gets no respect because other star players on a team could bitch and theyd get all the FTs... now they give LESS calls to Dame after he talks about it. LOL.

 

[H.C.]

Are they going to call any fouls tonight?

Not if your name is Damian Lillard.

 

[Strenuus]

NOW they call it.

 

[TBpup]

That's stotts not adjusting.

So Stotts.....being Stotts.

 

[A$AP Meyers]

Nurkic’ rim protection is hilarious

 

[julius]

I think CJ is on the take.

 

[Strenuus]

That might be the saddest possession of the year. Holy shit that was bad.

 

[BonesJones]

CJs been settling for jumpers too much this year.

 

[Strenuus]

I miss Patty.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Just hang in there; I don't think Aldridge can keep it up in the second half.

 

[Nikolokolus]

The difference between San Antonio and Portland on offense is night and day. Everything looks easy and deliberate for the Spurs. For the Blazers everything is hard and helter skelter.

 

[A$AP Meyers]

We should be down 30. Pop is probably livid.

 

[Strenuus]

Napier is gonna be a good get for a team if we don't get him.

Well, it helps when you have more than 2 offensive players in the game at one time.

 

[A$AP Meyers]

Lol, LaMarcus absolutely shitting on us.

 

[Strenuus]

Dame... you had 3 seconds... get a better shot.

 

[Strenuus]

Lol, LaMarcus absolutely shitting on us.

To be fair, at least the last one was really great D. Just made a good shot.

 

[Strenuus]

So - I think I can deduce that Stotts must only double players he's previously had on his team before....

 

[BlazerBeav]

This would be a very good game to initiate a double team. We did once that half and it worked. Surely we won't press our luck.

 

[Nikolokolus]

LaMarcus keeps getting to his spot and is completely dialed in from there, no matter how good or bad the defense is so far. Will the Blazers adjust in the second half? Naaaaaahhhhh!

They did adjust in the second quarter though. Started sending a double team if Aldridge had his back to the basket.
If he's in triple threat and hitting off balance shots like he did against Davis. He's unstoppable. Just ask Houston.

They started their 3rd string back court.

 

[Mediocre Man]

No kidding. The disrespect the player with the 10th most FTA per game gets is horrible

 

[Boise Blazer]

No kidding. The disrespect the player with the 10th most FTA per game gets is horrible

Here we fucking go...

 

[riverman]

CJ has missed at least 8 shots in a row...that's the problem here

 

[Strenuus]

No kidding. The disrespect the player with the 10th most FTA per game gets is horrible

Heh. Ironic this statement comes from you, given your stances on things.

 

[ripcityboy]

So. How we looking?

 

[Mediocre Man]

Here we fucking go...

Just responding to a silly comment
