Game Thread GAME# 36: WARRIORS @ BLAZERS - DECEMBER 29, 2018 - SATURDAY, 7:00 PM, NBATV & NBCSNW

Oh dame i love you

Looks like Alabama/Clemson in the CFP. Finals. The only sports contest that is more predetermined than the NBA Finals.

Less parity in college football than any other sport.

Athletes need to get paid a little bit. Have "elite" scholarships that football teams can give to 5 players and basketball teams can give to 2. Those scholarships would pay a big more than others. Would increase parity.

 

[DDolla]

Dame for 40 again

 

[TBpup]

Meh, we did last night.

True...but it took the worst game GS has played in maybe 4 years to do it. 6-15 from the FT line and bricklaying from '3'. Lightning won't strike like that twice. Warriors on pace for 120 tonight.

 

[BonesJones]

Collins needs to start going up strong instead of trying to scoop reverses in from his shoulder-level.

If only we had a BIG MAN COACH.

 

[Strenuus]

lol. A typical blazers quarter. Dame and no one else.

 

[Chris Craig]

Only down 3 after 1 quarter not too bad

 

[illmatic99]

ugh NBA tv.

Guess i'm stuck with Calabro

I want to see him with a competent big man coach.

 

[Chris Craig]

Bring back in Nurk

 

[H.C.]

Probably my fav thing about Meyers Leonard is when he has a chance to dunk the ball. He dunks the ball more often than not.
He doesn't go for a reverse layin. He throws the ball down.

Hopefully this rubs off on Collins soon.

 

[BonesJones]

The warriors play 25% better than they did the other night, they rout us.

If we play 25% better, we still win.

We played bad too.

What scares me about Zach is I feel like their coaching him to be just like Meyers... Basically stand around the 3 point line and maybe catch it on dives to the basket once in a while, but they don't do anything really relevant to HIS skill set.

True, but we also played on of our worst games of the season too. 35% shooting with silly, ridiculous turnovers and terrible crunch-time defense.

 

[BonesJones]

Nik is such a mediocre shooter.

 

[illmatic99]

Stauskas has cooled down so much

 

[ripcityboy]

I am going to call our second unit the "Lowered Expectations."

 

[BonesJones]

You gotta love the weave into a Stauskas isolation.

All I know is I'm playing with house money. Bet on Clemson (ND....no brainer) and bet on the Warriors tonight. Cheer with your heart, bet with your wallet. Hopefully the Blazers win and I end up with a draw.....I'm fine with that.

 

[DDolla]

Now our bench is really like a box of chocolates... smh

 

[BonesJones]

Nik WTF are you doing you scrub....

 

[Labinot41]

STAUSKAS FUCKING SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!

 

[illmatic99]

no touch Zach

 

[Strenuus]

Well, hmmm... I talked about this on Thursday.

 

[Chris Craig]

Gotta keep starters in against warriors

 

[Chris Craig]

Well, hmmm... I talked about this on Thursday.

Yeah we get it man

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Why is stotts so in love with playing our whole bench at the same time. No one else does that crap. Their starters or at least a few of them are in while our mediocre bench is getting stomped all over the court. I say it every game, it's HS basketball, it's amateur.

 

[TBpup]

Warriors on a 21-7 run. This is not looking good. My only consolation is it would be a very good $$$ day.

 

[B-Roy]

Change your stupid rotation.

Maybe he played hockey as a kid? #LineChange
