[bodyman5000 and 1]

I'll post. Are we winning?

 

[wizenheimer]

that was a great hesitation dribble by Teague

 

[James lamphear]

There on 11 point run right now.

 

[The Professional Fan]

I'll post. Are we winning?

We were. Now down 3

 

[Titan]

I see we are late to calling timeouts still

 

[wizenheimer]

Blazers fell apart when Dame sat down

Blazers fell apart when Dame sat down

You saved it up for the 2nd quarter.

 

[illmatic99]

Can't believe Tolliver gets regular rotation minutes for us

 

[Road Ratt]

Blazers can't buy a 3 point shot after shooting them so well to start the game

 

[Scalma]

Idk which acquisition I hate more Tolliver or Bazemore

 

[VenomXL]

Down double digits to the Wolves without Towns. Sounds about right for this season.

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

We were. Now down 3

See. I'm bad luck. I'm out

 

[wizenheimer]

Wiggins and Covington aren't all-star wings, but they are better than any Portland has had since Batum & Matthews

 

[RipCity4Life0]

If you were looking purely at stats you would think that Bazemore is a good defender. But it seems like he just likes to gamble for steals

 

[rotary111]

Not even sure we could beat the TWolves G league team tonight.

Please come back Nurk and Collins.

 

[Titan]

our offense is just total $#!^ in the 2nd

 

[VenomXL]

59 point half without Towns. Jesus.

 

[illmatic99]

thats twice now Bazemore missed a wide open dame after he repositioned.

 

[BonesJones]

I'm so fucking sick of Kent Bazemore.

 

[Scalma]

thats twice now Bazemore missed a wide open dame after he repositioned.

he has the IQ and talent of a lamp post. Useless player.

 

[James lamphear]

Terrible quarter offense and defense

 

[BlazerRx]

thats twice now Bazemore missed a wide open dame after he repositioned.

I was going to say the same thing. And whats even worse is that baze took 2 horrible shots on those possessions.

 

[BonesJones]

Bazemore won't pass to a wide-open Dame, but he'll pass to a wide-open Dieng!

 

[Scalma]

Bench Bazemore and launch Tolliver into the sun.

 

[wizenheimer]

blazers: 5 assists on 17 FG's. A 29% assisted FG is fucking pathetic. I've got at least one foot on the fire-stotts wagon, and the other two are getting closer

 

[James lamphear]

Need to refocus coming back out of the locker room at start of the 3rd.

 

[wizenheimer]

Bench Bazemore and launch Tolliver into the sun.

it's Portland...they'd miss the sun, but it's only 860K miles wide

 

[wizenheimer]

You saved it up for the 2nd quarter.

I've got a lot more arrows in my venom quiver....how's that for mixing metaphors!

 

[BonesJones]

Im out guys. Peace!

 

[James lamphear]

Dame the only double figure in scoring and Whiteside with 10 rebounds. That's really the only positive for the 1st half.
