Game Thread GAME# 41: KNICKS @ BLAZERS - JANUARY 7, 2019 - MONDAY, 7:00 PM (PST), NBCSNW

Jinxed by all the boardsters saying easy game.

This team seems to believe in jinxes and all kind of sorcery but they don't believe in themselves. Being up 1 on the fucking Knicks at home is fucking embarassing

 

[ripcityboy]

Yeah they'll both be out paying recruits lol.

No Tortured. The silent alums with the phone burners do THAT shit.

Why are you so embarrassed?

 

[Blazer4ever]

Count the number of passes between Dame and CJ and you'd understand our rotten chemistry

This reminds me. Once the NBA draft age limit is 18 and all those schools fall due to the FBI thing, imagine how good Gonzaga will be.

Saw this coming a mile away. This team has always had problems getting up for games like this. Play lackadaisical and let the other team get some energy and rhythm.

That's true, what am I thinking lol.

Jake starting the second half

Much deserved

Or I could read your posts.

Good.

What will the FBI do to punish them though? North Carolina was caught red-handed fixing grades and having a major just to get guys through and the NCAA seemed to not really care. Not sure what the FBI will do if anything other than making sure the government gets their money.

For your halftime entertainment:

The first 2.5 minutes is just you rambling about how often you're going to put out videos, c'mon man.

Clyde calling dame, "lethargic"

perfect description

 

[KingSpeed]

Our best play is give it to Nurk!

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

If Nurk stays out of foul trouble in the 2nd half he's the difference maker when Dame decides he doesn't care like he has most of tonight.

 

[LuckyShot]

So is Harkless having injury issues again?

 

[TBpup]

The Knicks best defense is to get Nurkic in foul trouble....because they can't slow him down any other way.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

I was wondering that too, did he get benched or is he having knee issues?

Or brainwash Stotts into playing Meyers a whole lotta minutes.

Not sure about the criticism of Dame right now. He's basically doing what we all want CJ to do. Passing up contested jumpers and getting wide open looks for his teammates. Taking the good looks he's had and only a couple of bad ones. He'd have 10 assists if his teammates hit half of the open shots he gave them in the first half.

 

[LuckyShot]

Aminu seems to be thinking he's CJ tonight.

 

[Chris Craig]

4 on Nurk

Sure but he's so not locked in on defense outside of like one play and we know he can be much more aggressive if he wants to be. I'm fine with him taking a step back for Nurk.

 

[Darkwebs]

Sweet ball movement by the Blazers there

 

[LuckyShot]

I love passing.

 

[TBpup]

Layman has made some VERY good passes tonight.

 

[hoopsjock]

CJ would be so much better if he got his shots within the flow of the offense like that wide open 3.

Yeah he rarely looks locked in on defense.
