Would it be good coaching if he doesn't play again?

Ha Ha Ha. That was kinda my point.

 

[Blazer4ever]

Meyers sprinting back to defense was funny

 

[beast blazer]

How is this team over 500?

 

[BonesJones]

93 points and still in the 3rd quarter. Just letting PG kill us.

 

[illmatic99]

I said this morning. Key to this game is watching turnovers. OKC forces a ton of em and run out. We can't play loose and stupid

 

[DDolla]

Time to turn off the TV

 

[oldmangrouch]

Imploding at the speed of light!

 

[Chris Craig]

Well fuck

 

[BlazerBeav]

We are literally giving this one away. Clearly better, but keep wasting opportunity.

 

[HailBlazers]

93 points and still in the 3rd quarter. Just letting PG kill us.

He shook is head after we went under the screen. Again.

 

[illmatic99]

Dame needs to rest, man. He can't even shake Schroeder tonight

 

[Jade Falcon]

We have nobody on this team that can rally the team when we're getting kicked. That's a problem in these kinds of games.

I just don’t see any Blazer able to stop him. Throwing a double is gonna free up Westbrook?
What should they do coach? Honest question? What ya got?

 

[Darkwebs]

This would be a nice game to finally break the 16-loss curse

 

[riverman]

lot of game left...we lost one qtr

 

[TBpup]

TURRBLE close to the end of the 3rd. Game over? I want to think not and that at some point the streak has to end....but Blazers got crushed that quarter.

The problem is we devolve into a bunch of guys standing around hoping Dame saves our asses.

 

[BonesJones]

Go over on PG, go under on Russ. Whatd be best is to hedge on PG, but we dont do that shit, ever.

 

[Jade Falcon]

So, rule of thumb: National Games are a loss.

 

[BonesJones]

So we just let him drop 50 points because we dont know more than one pick n roll defensive scheme.

 

[kjironman1]

So, rule of thumb: National Games are a loss.

Yeah that has a tendency to be true.

 

[twobullz]

Maybe just Maybe the 26 million dollar man should do something?

 

[Chris Craig]

Only down 6

 

[wizenheimer]

anybody know what Portland's record is in nationally televised games this season?

 

[LuckyShot]

So, rule of thumb: National Games are a loss.

Guaranteed to get dicked by the refs because they would rather showcase high scoring by their beloved stars, rather than good basketball.

 

[Jade Falcon]

Something like 1-4. It's pathetic.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Can tell bones is fed up when he starts talking to himself lol.

 

[Chris Craig]

The problem is we devolve into a bunch of guys standing around hoping Dame saves our asses.

And Dame defers

 

[LuckyShot]

Jesus, Jake....

 

[BonesJones]

So stagnant......
