[KingSpeed]

Individual scoring part of scoreboard is broken. Memphis sucks.

 

[DUB]

Griz 10-13 for 77% FG%

Geez for what tickets cost and how much they make that is unacceptable to me.

Wes - 8
Z-Bo - 6
Gasol - 6
Beno - 5

 

[PDXFonz]

Tone's biggest pet peeve?: Colors that are made up.

What???

There's no such thing as a "made up" color!

Did he mean names like macaroni and cheese?

 

[BrianFromWA]

Carter just came over specifically to dap Blake. Have they ever been on the same team?

And Jeff Green's looking ok so far.

 

[kingslayer]

Ice ice cold.

 

[BrianFromWA]

W3$ keeping us in it.

 

[riverman]

Need to stop giving up these 30 pt 1st qtrs

 

[BrianFromWA]

Meyers jumped early there and had to bring his hands down. Not fundamentally sound there.

 

[DUB]

Go Wes! What a record!

Most 3's in Trail Blazer history.

 

[BrianFromWA]

 

[Strenuus]

Trob hit a jumper?!?!

 

[Boise Blazer]

This is why I'm so frustrated with TRob. 2 plays so far where he hasn't boxed out and gave up an offensive rebound.

 

[Strenuus]

It's gotta be the shoes...

 

[Boise Blazer]

Really TRob?

 

[DUB]

Seems like Lillard is playing less 2 guard this season.

Should we play him at the 2 more to get his scoring going?

 

[chris_in_pdx]

Have the Blazers hit a wall? Have the injuries caught up with them, or has Batum's mental no-show finally brought the team down a notch? They do not look like the same team as a week ago.

 

[BrianFromWA]

have to use NBA.com box score as ESPN's is down

 

[MARIS61]

The good news is they aren't even trying to defend 3 pt shooting. If we get hot we'll rain on them.

That one... whether they are out (Rolo, Freeland) or playing through it (Wes. Nico, Dame)...

 

[Strenuus]

FUCKING BOUNCE PASS!!!!!!

 

[kingslayer]

Trade Batum already.

 

[MickZagger]

With Nic's continuing struggles, I think its imperative we get a wing in a trade. We could've offered up a better deal for Green than the Celtics got.

 

[Strenuus]

They can't miss..

 

[BrianFromWA]

Right now Kaman looks a bit like that golfer that used to be scratch, hasn't played in a couple of years, and still thinks he can make that 60-degree wedge flop shot over a bunker and down a sloping green. You can see the skill is there, but the execution is not what it once was.

"Nic is a shell of his offensive game right now, and some in Portland are wondering if they should shut him down" - MEM announcers. Have any POR media outlets (Canzano, Jaynes, etc) been saying this? I know some of us have.

 

[KingSpeed]

Batum is a disaster

 

[PDXFonz]

Kingspeed wants to play the Grizz in the playoffs. I hope he doesn't get his wish, outside of a potential WCF matchup.

 

[riverman]

Wheels is having one of those..oh shit...broadcasts.

Crap. We won't get anything for Batum now.
