FIFY

Well. Not tonight baby.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Turner taking over

 

[Nikolokolus]

Nice to see Turner having a game.

 

[Cippy91]

Stop saying let that sink in. God Damn. It's sunk in, and is depressing. No need to further twist that sword in the back-- it's already in all the way

"let that sink in" has become too common these days lol

 

[Scalma]

The offense is cool but it's so deflating knowing they can't stop anyone defensively and even when they do, they can't grab the rebound.

 

[SIeepwalker]

Oh turner is the worst he sucks so much
never does anything good
getting rid of him would be addition by substraction
trade him for a 2nd rounder

2nd rounder? What team is taking on that contract?

 

[H.C.]

Turner scores 10 in the 4th so far.
in b4 someone brings up analytics and points to bpm.

 

[julius]

Not sure why a yellow tie is objectionable?

Thats the first time I've actually felt like he's not really interested in the Blazers.

Isn't as bad as.... "To be fair....." I hate that friggin phrase.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Lillard getting abused

 

[Strenuus]

Isn't as bad as.... "To be fair....." I hate that friggin phrase.

To be fair, if it's used correctly, it's a great mediation tool.

 

[LuckyShot]

Just feels like we won't play good enough defense to get over the hump. We're back to sagging off ball screens and playing soft.

 

[ripcityboy]

To be fair, if it's used correctly, it's a great mediation tool.

Yeah, IF used correctly.

 

[SIeepwalker]

again phantom call

 

[SIeepwalker]

nice pass to plumlee turner !!!

 

[ripcityboy]

Ugh that 3 attempt.....

 

[LuckyShot]

That was a great backdoor pass by Turner to Plumlee.

 

[riverman]

Great game!

 

[julius]

I personally hate "to be honest".

But to be fair, fuck you all, let that sink in!

Put that in your pipe and smoke it!

Take it to the bank, too!

 

[Scalma]

That Plumlee effort was more exciting than any bucket.

 

[SIeepwalker]

I love Plumlee too

 

[ripcityboy]

Turner/CJ I guess they morphed.......

 

[Strenuus]

Yeah, IF used correctly.

To be fair, it's used correctly more often than not.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Plumlee three big rebounds in a row!

 

[Darkwebs]

Even Turner's turds are turning into gold (air balls a 3 which turns into a Dame 3).

 

[SlyPokerDog]

 

[ripcityboy]

To be fair, it's used correctly more often than not.

(eye winks nervously)

 

[H.C.]

Ugh that 3 attempt.....

Which one? Turner's airball although a miss was from a spot he's been taking and making them this season. And he was open.
Lillard's though. The contested 3 from 28ft in transition.. That was a bad shot.
Luckily portland is on the glass.

 

[The Professional Fan]

Checking in real quick....I hate Dame hero ball....hate it. Has a time and place, that time and place is not every 4th Q possession during a close game. Pass the fucking ball. Dudes are open you know.....you bring defenders to you, you know.....come on...
