Game Thread GAME# 34: BLAZERS @ JAZZ - DECEMBER 25, 2018 - TUESDAY, 7:30 PM, ESPN & NBCSNW

Our defensive ineptitude is ridiculous. That's a coaching problem.

 

[kjironman1]

Looks like the rout is on. Highly doubt the Blazers get back in this game.
Got to go back to work tomorrow. Enjoy the game. Good luck.

 

[BonesJones]

What a pathetic team

Hi Tunchi.

 

[illmatic99]

Jesus Mitchell gets that call? Really?

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Another 60 point half..another double digit deficit

 

[TBpup]

Thanks goodness the Jazz have missed 10 FT's or this would be out of hand already.

 

[hoopsjock]

Dame signals for the screen.

Calabro: "Dame waves off the screen"

Have a good night.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Our god damn forwards can’t even make point blank put backs. So pathetic.

 

[illmatic99]

Not sure what Dame was trying there

 

[julius]

So much for seeking revenge on the Jazz.

I swear, this team plays like they don't care more often then they play like they care.

 

[Titan]

Good news everyone, we didn’t give up 60 points this half.

 

[Chris Craig]

This team is lazy. There is no accountability. Stotts doesn't call players out, Neil doesn't call Stotts out. Everybody is comfortable, paid, and don't care to extend even a modest effort.

Yeah, it is fucking fustrating.

 

[Strenuus]

Trading CJ in any other market would be the best thing to do.

But we have Neil I-Must-Re-sign-every-pick-I-make Olshey is still here... it'll never change until he leaves.

 

[Jade Falcon]

If I don't see any worthwhile improvement in the 3rd, I'm turning this shit off. I skipped a shower for this, and I smell like shit.

 

[VenomXL]

Sure would be nice if someone other than Dame showed up for this game.

 

[Chris Craig]

If I don't see any worthwhile improvement in the 3rd, I'm turning this shit off. I skipped a shower for this, and I smell like shit.

Please don't kick any babies, old peoole, or animals

At this point, the only folks who care are the fans...and that won't last if somebody doesn't catch a clue and make some changes.

This is a good way of putting it. Everyone is comfortable. No sense of urgency, on the floor or in the front office

 

[TBpup]

Harkless bricklaying at 1-5. Alternate starter sitting on the bench with an eFG% of near 60% Terry. Sometimes, it's not rocket science.

 

[Titan]

If I don't see any worthwhile improvement in the 3rd, I'm turning this shit off. I skipped a shower for this, and I smell like shit.

Well if we are still behind at end of 3rd, no reason to watch anymore.

 

[tykendo]

Dame is the ONLY player I see who thinks this game is important, and THAT! is bullshit. CJ is so aloof, that I wonder if he was drinkin' some funky eggnog. Chief and Harkless look like they're wearing cement boots, and Nurk is getting those cupcake fouls that make me want to scream. The Refs again have head upcha, cause contact is only being allowed by the Jazz. WAKE UP!

 

[BonesJones]

No Offense bro, but i told ya this Team is dead and looks lost against playoff Defense

You have surface takes so dont talk to me unless you come up with something better.

 

[wizenheimer]

in the last 4 games, CJ has 51 points on 60 FGA's......geeeeezuz

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

The Jazz are better at just about everything.

Again, what is Olshey's plan - to barely not suck?

 

[BonesJones]

He DID get Dame some help! Didn't you see the 6' 2" High School PG he drafted, Bones?

What else did you expect him to do with that draft pick? C'mon dude. Who did he miss out in drafting that be helping us right now? Exactly. That's a silly narrative. Theres many real ones to use if you want to complain about Neil.

 

[tykendo]

Not sure what Dame was trying there

Trying to jam it on Gobert, which he has done successfully on multiple occasions. Probably trying to spark his slumbering teammates. Lots of contact by Gobert, but he's allowed, Nurk is not.

 

[TBpup]

Again, what is Olshey's plan - to barely not suck?

Olshey SO SCREWED this roster with the Summer of 2016. Then he is relegated to moves like....letting Vonleh go for nothing and dumpster diving for bargains that don't make a difference.

With terrible defense, ball-stopping isolations, and no passing vision. Dude is the most overrated guard in the league.
