Game Thread Game #34 - BLAZERS VS MAVERICKS - DECEMBER 27, 2021 - MONDAY - 7:00 PM (PDT) ROOT SPORTS

[B-Roy]

Nassir needs to play the entire game

 

[DUB]

Great to see Aussie Josh Green playing well.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Not even trying on defense. Sad.

 

[blazedanugz]

This is a joke once again

 

[KSF-ERIC]

How does Dallas have enough talent on the floor to go on a 17-1 run?

Our defense making everybody look good. And of course Porzingis is playing well since we have no size.

 

[B-Roy]

Simons is borderline unplayable with his defense. He’s regressing

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Dame has given up

 

[BlazerBeav]

23-6 on assists. Jason Kidd has a better gameplan than we do. Jesus.

 

[Haakzilla]

Hopefully someone bet their life saving on the Mavs moneyline tonight -- not sure how the Blazers could possibly be favorites in this matchup @MickZagger

 

[TBpup]

13 points, 4 rebounds, 2 steals and 3 blocks from your future SF.

Nice half Nas. Now, build on that.

 

[riverman]

They scored over 70 firs half....we might be in trouble here...never let them get the cursed 70!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I think Porzingis likes playing without Doncic. Of course he also likes playing against a team where he is 7" taller than any of them.

This team needs a hard reset and needs it fast. They are playing like a team that knows that some/most of them will likely not be on roster in the near future. There is no energy, no chemistry, no cohesion. Teams from the past you could tell there was chemistry and guys rooted for each other. This team you see none of that.

 

[DDolla]

Dame has given up

Cmon you will quit too. He asked for help and all you can do is McLemore, Nance and Snell

I mean.... Some of them do know that. Look at the roster today lol.

 

[James lamphear]

Offensely we got 3 scorers this game Powell got 12 but that's attempting 10 shots and Little having a real good half with 13 points and Dame have only took 9 shots but 18 point and 8-9 from free throw line actually pretty good. Now defense there a no show by overall team defense and only person standing out there is Little with 2 steals and 3 blocks.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

The Blazers were batting near .1000 with second round picks….

Until now.

Elleby looks like he’s destined for China

2nd round was great. Unfortunately, the 1st round, where you get the difference makers, has been abysmal.

 

[DUB]

Mavs improved their 3P% from 25% at the quarter to 43% at the half, and they still killed us in the paint.

We truely are the Portlan_ Trail Blazers.

 

[TBpup]

Holton kind of calling out Dame for not getting the rest of the team more involved based on how the Mavs are playing defense.

 

[blazedanugz]

I’m done
Done with this season
I’m not watching anymore

good luck everyone I hope it turns around.
Enough is enough

 

[KSF-ERIC]

I’m the most optimistic Blazers fan, I know. Barring a lopsided trade, I don’t think we’ll make the play-in. The HCP was wrong. We’re not gonna win 41 games.

Don't blame you. Depleted rosters on both sides, but we have our star and are at home. They don't have their star, and are routing us. Ugh.

 

[illmatic99]

So short

 

[DUB]

The Mavs are blitzing Dame, but his teammates miss every open shot he gets them; so he’s damned if he does, damned if he doesn’t.

 

[DUB]

Great pass Josh Green!

 

[BlazerBeav]

Hahahaha. How many points is Utah going to put up on Wednesday?

 

[KSF-ERIC]

If Nassir Little is your best player, you’re losing.

Play the right way....and it will come around.

My god. The sky has indeed fallen.
