Game Thread Game #4 BLAZERS VS GRIZZLIES - OCTOBER 27, 2021 - WEDNESDAY - 7:00 PM, ESPN, ROOT SPORTS

[Blazinaway]

I think Nance might take RoCO’s starting spot soon

works for me

 

[TBpup]

Thank goodness JJJ is bricking up a storm or this would be worse.

 

[FlashWad]

Simons is playing better than Lillard so far. Nance should take Roco's starting spot. Im starting to think defenders have found out how to stop Lillard...

 

[Chris Craig]

Williams is a stick figure. Nurk to bring it to him

 

[B-Roy]

Nurkic is so stupid sometimes.

 

[Blazinaway]

Thank goodness JJJ is bricking up a storm or this would be worse.

they have missed a LOT of wide open shots

 

[Cugel]

Memphis clearly the better team so far. Only Ant has kept things interesting.

 

[DDolla]

Blazers are not good… don’t tell me the season is early. They look like a 10th seed looking out

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Don’t see you complaining about Ant much this season…

Color me optimistic — he’s been the most consistent scorer aside from CJ

 

[TBpup]

Simons/Little - 6-8
Dame/CJ - 4-16

Maybe more shots for the youngsters.

9 years into it the league has him figured out!

I hate to say it but when our best player is this bad we won't go far.

 

[LayneStaley]

I’m ready to deal CJ for Simmons and Nurk for whatever. I’m off the Nurk bandwagon, dude is way too inconsistent.

 

[James lamphear]

Obviously this defense allows the 3 ball from the corners especially the left corner. This almost looks like sometimes looks like 1-3-1 zone defense that bottom no way he going be able get out there against corner shot. Don't get wrong it's not 1-3-1 zone defense.

 

[Chris Craig]

The Blazers look a step or two behind Memphis. Still low on energy?

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

When/why did Nurk morph into late-career Przybilla?

 

[TBpup]

DSJ leading the team in rebounding so far.

Who had that on their prop bet?

 

[James lamphear]

Good defense!

 

[VenomXL]

“Somebody gotta grab the fuckin ball.” -Dame

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

 

[LayneStaley]

Nurk sucks

 

[James lamphear]

Really impressed with Simons on both ends.

 

[DDolla]

I hate to say it but when our best player is this bad we won't go far.

Hey he is the top 75 best player in the history of the NBA

 

[Blazinaway]

Simons making some nice passes and guys can't hit shit

 

[FlashWad]

can we trade Nurkic for soggy sandwich? Or is that asking too much?

 

[LayneStaley]

Hmmm, maybe the future of this team is an Ant/Nas/Simmons Big3

 

[wizenheimer]

Little got away with a foul on that Morant drive. Dame can't shoot yet but he's done a good job defending Morant

these don't look like two of the better teams in the league

 

[JDC]

Really impressed with Simons on both ends.

He blown a couple assignments weakside but he's looked good on the ball.

 

[James lamphear]

Dame and CJ 4-18 from the floor. We getting out rebound by 10. What keeping us in the game only 6 turnovers and only 1 this quarter.

 

[Predator]

Does Nurk know he is allowed to dunk?
