Game Thread GAME# 33: HORNETS @ BLAZERS - MARCH 1, 2021 - MONDAY, 7:30, NBATV & NBCSNW

[DDolla]

We are not losing when Melo is hot

 

[Scalma]

I haven’t even been one of the people chastising Neil for not signing a backup pg, but god, Ant looks awful in this role.

it’s been a three year experiment. Enough. He’s a shooting guard.

 

[Darkwebs]

Charlotte unraveled in the 4th quarter like a cheap suit

 

[AldoTrapani]

Nice shot Melo but ur wide open take one baby step behind you and go for the 3

 

[calvin natt]

Imagine hating Carmelo and his $2.4m salary and 14 ppg and offense off bench

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Just in case someone of you were wondering...

25 3pt shots = 75 points.

You're welcome!

 

[Scalma]

I just realized the hornets had two of the same guy

 

[BlazerBeav]

Has Melo been a positive on D tonight?

 

[riverman]

Melo hits the franchise record 3!!!!!!!

 

[Dom McBlazer]

Good win after such a start that we can forget.

 

[riverman]

BLEEDING STOPPED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Scalma]

Can we get LONZO ball?

 

[AldoTrapani]

I’m on a roll 5/5 on calling the game this past 5 games!!!

 

[Darkwebs]

So nice to see RoCo fill the basket tonight, as well as the stat sheet. 21 points on 11 shots. 10 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals, 2 blocks. Dayum!

 

[riverman]

Let's just give Melo that game ball...season high for him scoring...Roco had a great game too

 

[VenomXL]

Fun game!

 

[bobf]

Good win. We didn’t look like we really cured any of our problems through.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

The more I get to know Carmello as a fan the more I like him.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Good win. We didn’t look like we really cured any of our problems through.

You mean except for that losing streak. We did cure that.

 

[Tince]

fuck off melo

I can see this Hornets squad score 140 points tonight... on a 2nd night of a b2b.

After 6 game winning streak we could lose the next 6 games... sad

Survey Says...

 

[B-Roy]

CJ coming back and taking Ants minutes is going to be low key huge.

 

[Serbian]

So we hit franchise record in 3s and hornets hit only like what 8 threes only? Yet no blow out cause kanter is worst defender ever. I mean we need a shot blocker under the rim , we need nurkic back because everyone gets wide open lay ups it’s insane

 

[James lamphear]

We had 3 players in double double Dame Kanter Covington. I thought 2nd we put everything together on both ends and the bench with the big lead by Melo. Tommorow I will sit down and watch the game again the guy I will focus on will be Little when he is playing it's looks like he moving up in the rotation. Maybe something will happen at the trade deadline.

 

[SheedSoNasty]

That was a fun game! Guys were hitting from everywhere.

 

[Chris Craig]

This is a win

Told ya

 

[TBpup]

Hood/Jones - 48 minutes, 11 points, 5 rebs, 1 asst.
Nassir Little - 20 minutes, 11 points, 2 rebs, 2 assts.

Just not sure how you don't find more minutes for Little. Just get him involved and he produces. Pair him with Melo/Trent and he just stands in the corner.

Win and cover the spread without CJ, Nurk, Collins, and Giles. I'll take it!

 

[hoopsjock]

Blazers end their 4 game losing streak and set the franchise record for 3 pointers in a game. The Blazers Uprise Postgame Show is about to begin:

 

[Titan]

Hood/Jones - 48 minutes, 11 points, 5 rebs, 1 asst.
Nassir Little - 20 minutes, 11 points, 2 rebs, 2 assts.

I really wish he was the starting SF vs a guy or 2 we don’t have future control regarding his next contract.
