Game Thread GAME# 39: SPURS @ BLAZERS - JANUARY 7, 2018 - SUNDAY, 6:00 PM (PST), NBATV & NBCSNW

[Mediocre Man]

Thank God they were missing half their roster. Good win

 

[Mediocre Man]

CJ hit an eventual game winning shot and during that time on this thread, no one gave him credit for it. No "way to go CJ." Amazing.

Meaning you didn't either

Aren't they always?

Yeah, I was cheering him on without sitting on my phone at the same time. And then I said he redeemed himself from last game with an "aye"...

EDIT: Didn't see your post before that.

They always are and still built a great record. It doesn't matter who they're missing, especially since we were missing Dame.

 

[BonesJones]

And 6 pages of people gushing about CJ is actually pretty appropriate given how much people love to trash him.

Lmao. He's struggled. Nobody is sitting here ding he can't do what he did tonight.

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

I just noticed it. That's all. I don't want even a page of people gushing about CJ. It's just that no one acknowledged that the shot went in. Usually when a big shot goes in OR DOESN'T everyone goes "Yes!" or "Fuck" but no one reacted to CJ's shot at all. And there were two full timeouts to post. It's bizarre. You don't have to "stop watching the game" to type "CJ!!!" It was weird. I like to look back at threads after a game to see how people responded to parts of the game. No one reacted to CJ's shot. As far as BonesJones' post, that is still the only post that has praised him at all since the game ended. I mean What. The. Fuck? You haven't even done it!

I did notice that. I was checking the game thread and espn gamecast and saw the score with 5 seconds and didn't see any reaction in the thread. I seriously thought espn was ahead of the broadcast people were watching

 

[GrandJury]

I did notice as well Cj didn’t get no love but that’s not shocking a lot of folks here don’t like him. I bet Cj haters were mad he made that game winner.

Idk why they hate Cj so much. The guy shoots 45% from the field and 42% from 3. Mind you this with TONS of attempts.

Crazy thing is Cj is technically playing “bad” for his standards right now. And still somehow is at great clips from the field.

Ah well

 

[roroyo]

So, I got this question. Most of you not gonna like it, but does this team have better chemistry with Lillard out? It seems obvious Harkless can play bball when he doesn't have to play with Dame. Sad but true.
CJ had 7 assists tonight, all of sudden - he can pass the ball for few games now.
Could it be like Dame is much better then all other players and it's actually works opposite for the team?
Saying that I'm on fire Stotts bandwagon, as locker room problem is so obvious in Portland and not this season only. Half of those players half of the time play like they have some personal issues. It's like they need some authority and they can't find it in Stotts. I think they are not finding it in Lillard neither.
I've been calling for vets presents in this team for long time. I think it's so obvious you can spot it from Europe.

Do you ever post anything positive? Ever???

The Blazers, who also happened to be missing their best player, just beat one of the best teams in the league, and instead of celebrating, like an actual fan, you shit all over the win.

Serious question: why do you follow the team?

BNM

 

[dviss1]

Shit y'all I refereed 9 games today.

I just got done with the game.

That turncoat son of a bitch airballed!!!!

Ah well

yay. He shoots well. We won because he shot.

He's not great at most other things.

 

[BlayZa]

if only Lillard was a SG and CJ was the PG and we could trade CJ, keep Bazz and maybe, just maybe get an actual starting SF or PF.......

if we do trade bazz we need to bundle ET and meyers in there and maybe ...... oh shit, im in dreamland.

Bazz is the best PG on the team, and yes, I think the teams flow & pace is better with the 35 foot chucker out.
Blazers need to choose who they want as their undersized SG, CJ or Dame (they're both best suited to that role), and then use the other to acquire a top tier SF.

Trade the 'to kool for skool posers' (Davis, Leonard, Lillard)

 

[Mr. Robot]

how about Nurk lockdown defense on LMA... as clutch as it can get

Harmless can't play with Dame...??? More like he doesn't see mijnutes when Dame plays, it's not that he can't play with Dame... He was great next to Dame all year last year.

Is our chemistry better without Dame? Huh? CJ got 7 assists (season high I think), Dame averages 7 assists. We had 3 players shoot well tonight. With Dame and the way those guys shot, we'd have won by more.

Bruh... What?

Here we go with the Dame bashing because we beat an undermanned ragtag Spurs team by 1 at home without Dame. Too cool for skool? Trade him? There's one guard on this team that's too cool to play defense and it's not Lillard...

You can't even talk lmao. You're the one who bashes Dame then he goes off and you go quiet and don't say shit. You are the exact example of what you're talking about.

I believe people felt like a SAS game winner was coming and then forgot about CJs game winner because they took so much joy in Aldridges brick at the buzzer.

 

[Mr. Robot]

Thank God they were missing half their roster. Good win

we were missing half our roster too... yes, Dame is important that much

 

[stampedehero]

Yes!!! Win "We got hands on a lot of balls"-T Stotts and CJ puts the smear on "the forever Blazer" "The red uni luck must be rubbing off on the opponent"-my in post caption

No he's not

 

[TBpup]

Credit where credit is due. CJ with 7 assists and 0 turnovers. When Shabazz, Pat and Mo' are 18-25, I'd still like to see him get them more shots especially when he is 11-24 in comparison but at least he is finally giving up the rock and getting teammates involved.

Shabazz's passing....impressive. Orlando Williams made an interesting comment about Shabazz. He said he is passing with intent versus passing out of necessity. Well stated.

Yes, Hark was good LAST SEASON. Then he went with this 500.000 stuff. If I was Dame I would f. be all over him for that shh. I'm no saying it was the case, but what Hark thought was cool to do was not so cool (and I'm sure of it) in Dame's eyes. Hark was out in playoffs because of this 500.000 fun.
This season Harkless was in deep hole playing with Dame and now out of the blue he can play.

And of course I like Dame to stay here. I'm just sure there is something terribly wrong in chemistry for very long time now.

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Does Harkless hate playing with Dame?

Can anyone explain to me how Canzano hacked into Kings' account???

 

[Boob-No-More]

Why do you follow me?

You didn't answer the question.

I don't follow you. You happened to post in a thread I was reading.

You take more satisfaction in losses than wins, and constantly make excuses when the team wins.

So, answer the question: why do you follow the team?
