Game Thread GAME# 36: HEAT @ BLAZERS - JANUARY 8, 2015 - THURSDAY, 7:30 PM (PST), TNT

[B-Roy]

Why the hell are we going small?

 

[magnifier661]

I still don't see why Stotts sees in Wright

 

[blue32]

No defense and wright can't shoot

 

[BrianFromWA]

No Interior defense.

Well, Blake/Dame/Crabbe/Wright/Kaman doesn't exactly scream "all-NBA D!"

 

[KingSpeed]

No Interior defense.

No Robin Lopez or Joel Freeland

 

[kingslayer]

That D-league dude is eating us alive inside. Small ball ain't gonna work Stotts.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Wow, I haven't been watching for very long but the replays are soooo much nicer on TNT then they are on Blazer TV.

 

[Sinobas]

He should have Meyers in there at the 4, he's a better shooter than Wright, better rebounder than Wright, and better perimeter defender than Wright

 

[KingSpeed]

What's great about our team is despite our shortcomings at least partly due to injuries, we still find ways to win the games anyway. I expect us to do it again tonight.

 

[MARIS61]

Thanks to everyone that tried getting me a link. It looks like I may miss my first Blazers game in over two years. Or, maybe I'll sneak out and catch the 4th quarter at the bar down the street and come back into work after the game is over.

BNM

check your pm's

 

[BrianFromWA]

No Robin Lopez or Joel Freeland

or Robinson or Claver or...

Seriously, who's better at defending PFs...Wright or Leonar_?

If you have Comcast you can use your Comcast ID to sign into TNT's webiste and watch the game there.

 

[KingSpeed]

Leonard time

 

[HailBlazers]

Fuck t Rob should be in the game

 

[Sinobas]

Let's get Nards some shots!

 

[BrianFromWA]

so he keeps Wright in at the stretch 4, and Leonard at the 5?

 

[BrianFromWA]

why did Blake call Leonard out of the paint for the pick if he was just launching anyway?!

 

[Sinobas]

They are abusing us inside and we won't hit a fucking shot.

 

[blue32]

Comical

 

[KingSpeed]

Wright with a big rebound. You guys are too hard on him.

 

[BrianFromWA]

not Nic's night right now...

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

Why is batum so bad?

 

[HailBlazers]

Joey Crawford is a blind old man

 

[Sinobas]

Portland isn't even into this game. They've had little passion on this home stand.

 

[HailBlazers]

not Nic's night right now...

Not his year, man I don't know where his shot went..

 

[Strenuus]

ugh... when they aint fallin'

 

[BrianFromWA]

Portland isn't even into this game. They've had little passion on this home stand.

still only lost once.

 

[Sinobas]

At this point, we may as well just let LA do his turn around fade aways and pray that he gets hot

 

[BrianFromWA]

It works with him down low, and Meyers able to go back and forth in and out of the paint

 

[riverman]

Now we're cookin'
