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

[AldoTrapani]

Ok I know what it is with Nas now. He needs to really relax on his control. He goes outta control a lot like Aminu use to do

But I like what I see from him just relax a little

 

[B-Roy]

Larry needs more minutes.

 

[riverman]

I love Zeller off the bench...the guy is a dog!

 

[B-Roy]

Why have DSJ out there if he’s just going to be a floor spacer….

 

[B-Roy]

It feels like Dames FTA rate is down a lot this season. Wonder if that has to do with his struggles.

 

[OneSport3]

Nance is exact PF we’ve always needed.

 

[illmatic99]

Stop fouling

 

[Shaboid]

DSJ kind of reminds me of Andre Miller.

He pushes the pace and is a good defender.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Man who the fuck is this Bane guy? He’s nice

 

[TBpup]

Dame/CJ 11-35.
The rest of the team. 15-25.

This happened too often last year as well.

 

[riverman]

Hello Larry Nance Jr!

 

[VenomXL]

Larry drew some blood on that offensive board.

 

[B-Roy]

Larry should start. He does all the off ball stuff RoCo does while also being able to recover on shooters and keep his man in front.

 

[Cugel]

LNJ bringing it. Great power moves. Maybe the best finishing big Portland has.

I like him and Zeller and Nas and Ant off the bench....we need to stop people when our starters sit...big problem in the past

 

[James lamphear]

Difference is players are moving towards the basket and our guards are hitting with ball. Defense this quarter are staying more attach and taking angle away for passes to the corner. This adjustments I have seen this half good by the coaching staff at half time.

 

[VenomXL]

What a pass and finish!

 

[DDolla]

It’s time for Nance to start

 

[B-Roy]

Has roco just declined or something?

 

[BlazerBeav]

That was some great passing by Dame in the third!

 

[riverman]

Starting doesn't matter....I like that he's here finishing the game with Dame....staggering rosters is useful in matchups.

 

[James lamphear]

Nice pass by Dame to Nance that's how you beat double team.

 

[1 Eye Jack]

Has roco just declined or something?

Slow start come playoff time he’ll be crucial

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

He pushes the pace and is a good defender.

And he has pretty good vision sometimes.

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Got a question. How many times have we seen Lillard guarding Morant?
How many times have you seen Morant try to guard Lillard.
One is not like the other.

 

[Chris Craig]

Larry drew some blood on that offensive board.

It was like Iguodala taking out Zeller just not as bad

 

[Cugel]

DSJ solid on Ja. No small task. By far the best defending guard Portland has, maybe better than Norm on fast guards.

 

[MickZagger]

Stotts would never play Dennis Smith this many minutes

 

[wizenheimer]

how many people here are old enough to have watched Larry Nance Sr. play? Talk about hops

and Dame gets going, finally, and the Blazers win the quarter by 16 points. It really doesn't matter which other Blazers are hot, if Dame struggles, the Blazers struggle. Dame has played real good defense on Morant tonight
