Game Thread GAME# 42: BLAZERS @ PELICANS - JANUARY 12, 2018 - FRIDAY, 5:00 PM (PST), NBCSNW

I'm not sure how Dame's wasn't a foul.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Bullshit. Dame gets clubbed on a layin, no and 1. Cousins dunks and comes down on Nurkic’s back, gets and and 1.

 

[Chris Craig]

I just can't say Connaughton is a decent NBA player when he has games like this. He's airballed one three, shot another off the side of the backboard, and been awful defensively. New Orleans went on a run when he got in in the first half. Watch it happen again.

He had that one good block and layup off of it earlier

Bullshit indeed

 

[Strenuus]

LMFAO they did a mash up of Davis/cousions and it's HIDEOUS. Cousins can't stop laughing.

He's a 8/9 man making the minimum in his first extended action. If he was consistent he'd be angling for a Kyle Korver/JJ Redick deal. Thank goodness we may get him for the MLEish.

 

[Chris Craig]

How the fuck did Dame not get a call there????

He got knocked down...foul

 

[Chris Craig]

And Cousins got that call? What the fuck?

Yeah he came down on Nurks back. Foul on Nurk? Nurk wasnt even facing him.

 

[Strenuus]

Gotta help defend there zach.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Here we go again, get up 8, now have 5 points in 5+ minutes.

 

[Scalma]

Meyers has always played against Cousins, whether in the rotation or not.

He gone

I’m speaking this into existence shut up

 

[Strenuus]

Dumb pass, nurk. Put some fire on it.

 

[Strenuus]

He gone

Yeah. he has to be gone... this is one of his only good matchups.

 

[illmatic99]

Jesus, Damian getting no respect. That was a charge clear as day

 

[BlazerBeav]

This has to be one of the least intimidating arenas in the league. Gotta get this game!

 

[Strenuus]

Stotts talking about the pass. Good.

Damn, Lavar Ball in the house!!!! @HCP ain't the only L*ker fan up in here.

 

[BonesJones]

Harkless is fucking trash today.

 

[BonesJones]

If only we had better players in Harkless' and Connaughton's spots.

 

[Scalma]

Collins SZN

 

[BonesJones]

Good follow Zach.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Awful last 8 minutes of that quarter, good thing Dame stopped the bleeding right at the end.

 

[BonesJones]

Good way to finish

 

[riverman]

Big end game here!

 

[BrianFromWA]

I usually do this the other way, but in honor of Bones' last comment...

Shabazz/Patty Ice/Mo Money: 54 minutes, 5-18 (27%), 12pts, 3TO
Everyone else on the Blazers: 126 minutes, 29-53 (55%), 5 TO

 

[BonesJones]

Cmon Collins.... Fuck man.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Collins is really not playing well at all....

 

[BrianFromWA]

Zach had a lot more time and space than he thought right there.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Get the guards back in before they put us away.

 

[illmatic99]

AD pushed off man come on
