[DDolla]

Fawk... Wake UP Dame. We are 14-20, what are you waiting for?

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Bench points: Knicks 30, Blazers 5

So how do the starters match up?

 

[James lamphear]

Right now we getting beat on the boards.

Fawk Wake UP Dame. We are 14-20, what are you waiting for?

Even if Dame takes over and wins this game for us, it wont make us any better as a team.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

One more chance Herbert and the job should be a lot easier this time.

 

[bobf]

Not good. Our shot quality is in the toilet.

 

[B-Roy]

Bazemore is legit one of the worst players in the league. He’s 500.

 

[bobf]

Stroke of lightning = We got lucky. Dame was out of control.

Our offense is pathetic. We miss Nurk & Leonard solid screens.

 

[Labinot41]

Lillard is looking for the triple double

 

[DDolla]

Ducks Win, Blazers Sucks!

 

[blazerfan11]

what the hell defense was that , standing and watching Randle shoot an open 3-pointer at the end of the half?

 

[James lamphear]

Dame is 1-10 tonight but he also have 8 rebounds and 6 assist so besides his shooting he doing good job other parts of the game. Olshey must go out get another that can rebound because the 2nd unit is to small to compete on the boards.

Haha, guess I got that in the wrong thread; well he did make a couple good throws and Ducks win!

Honestly, Ducks / Beaver recruitment talk is more fun than the Blazers season has been lol.

Dame is the only one trying to consistently get to the rim, because he knows it won't happen naturally out of the offense. However, the offense is so stagnant that it allows New York to load up their help and rotations very easily, and Dame is trying to attack a set defense off the dribble from a standstill and he can't buy a clean look around the buket.

Wish they'd try to use him more off the ball as a mover/cutter... Wish they'd try to move the ball more... I wish they'd try something else other than consistently getting shitty shots possession after possession. Even if it doesn't work, at least give yourself a better chance by trying...

I'd be interested to see our field goal percentage broken down by number of passes. For example, FG% after 0 passes, FG% after 1 pass, FG% after 2 passes, etc. I'd also like to see turnovers broken down the same way.

 

[Labinot41]

Dear Dame, dont complain when you get snubbed again

 

[James lamphear]

I starting questioning Dame right now about him leading this team he 2-14 right and continue firing away. He need to start getting others involved this half.

 

[BonesJones]

We're such a poorly coached team... Can't blame injuries for this one! Dame's completely out of it because he's not in an offense that helps him easy looks to build a rhythm. So now that he gets 2, he's already completely cold.

 

[Sheldon Shape]

IT'S NOT STOTTS' FAULT WE HAVE THREE STARTERS INJURED!

HE CAN'T MAKE SHOTS FOR OUR PLAYERS!

 

[BonesJones]

C.J. just had Bazemore (who had just hit two straight jumpers) wide open in the corner and he shot a contested pull-up 3 from a few feet behind the line.

 

[James lamphear]

Melo has it going on tonight.

 

[Darkwebs]

I love when we get efficient Melo

 

[DUB]

Melo really doesn’t want to lose this one.

 

[BonesJones]

Thank god Melo is having a flashback performance so we can just isolate him every possession since we can't orchestrate anything that's consistently better...

 

[Labinot41]

Melo is awesome tonight
