Stop
Going
Under

 

[B-Roy]

Seriously worried about paying ant. His awareness on defense is just so bad.

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

Is there some weird planetary alignment right now?

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Are we just gonna keep going under the screen?

 

[BoomChakaLaka]

Ant has the bigger upside. I love Little but ant has better bball IQ. I say keep them both!

 

[B-Roy]

Are we just gonna keep going under the screen?

They need to take anfernee off garland. Or not, since we’re tanking.

The last two were on Powell

 

[DDolla]

Brooke, Kevin and Lamar talking about the halftime show. When was the last time you went to a blazer game and the main attraction was the halftime show?

 

[James lamphear]

Simons is quiet this 1st half just like last game he has to pick it up in the 2nd half. The bench play well this 1st half with 14 points.

 

[B-Roy]

Watch it back.

 

[DUB]

NBA refs continuing to prove that they don’t have a firm grasp on reality.

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

Horseshit refs.

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

Will Nurk ever change?

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

 

[James lamphear]

Positive is points in the paint and rebounding. What not so good is premeter defense and only shooting 44 percent from the free throw line that's not going cut it.

 

[illmatic99]

So tired of our shit defense.

It's time for Ant to start doing stuff

 

[Strenuus]

Trade Ant.

Keep little.

Very easy decision.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

It doesn't seem like we are playing that bad, besides some defensive lapses and missed pointblank baskets. But somebody needs to get hot from the three, Anf, Mac or Powell.

 

[blazerkor]

Will Nurk ever change?

No and we need to trade his ass because he's also a grass is greener guy who despite the fact that he won't change is valuable. So ship him off for whatever you can get before we lose him for nothing or severely overpay for a guy who can do a lot of things but doesn't think the right way is the cool way of doing them, so his abilities are squandered.

 

[riverman]

Is it just me or do we suck at corner 3s? seems like we miss more of those than we make

 

[illmatic99]

Ant making great reads and drives this quarter

 

[Tweak]

Corner 3 is Norms shot too.

 

[riverman]

We've missed 20 bunnies at the rim so far

 

[B-Roy]

Nurk what the fuck

 

[B-Roy]

Nurk lmao

 

[Labinot41]

Nurkic is 4-14 including 2 lucky 3s…. How the fuck does this dude still have the nerves to demand anything

 

[VenomXL]

Nurk is 4/15 and two of those four makes were threes.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

How can Nurk miss so many layups off glass, the easiest shot in basketball?

 

[James lamphear]

4-15 is not good for your starting center especially when you missing 5 foot shot that should be automatic for a center.

If only we could shoot against our own defense. That seems to help most other teams.
