So....Tolliver is now Mr. 4th Quarter?

 

[James lamphear]

Nice shot by Trent and Toliver that how you answer there run.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Nice shooting, boys!

 

[hoopsjock]

Oh good, I thought the game had already started, and my Papa Murphy's pizza is in the oven. Oops. Maybe it will help me crash before we get down 20 in the first half.

Ace! How have you been man?

 

[H.C.]

Feel like Simons would've forced that early in the season.
Good job on staying under control and reading the defense. Instead of trying to use his athleticism and get to the rim.

 

[JDC]

Nice lefty hook pass by Simons to Tolliver...

Could envision he and Zach combining on that for a while

 

[H.C.]

Melo's rebounding commentary man. lol.

 

[blazerfan11]

I got it get the fuck out of here - Carmelo Anthony

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I was just about to say "Hey CJ, how about doing something", and now he did!

 

[Shaboid]

Not sure what to say about this game.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Russ talks shit and then bricks a free-throw. Classic.

 

[H.C.]

Worried about them getting to the line in the 4th.

 

[Shaboid]

Dame is definitely in Westbrook's head

 

[BlazerBeav]

Cannot stop scoring! Come on!

 

[AldoTrapani]

Right on schedule good teams always come back

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Dammit. Dame's long shots are killing our momentum. He has to make those or not take them.

 

[-Ace-]

Ace! How have you been man?

Good, man. I've been so depressed for this season, I've only been lurking. Haven't felt like contributing. How was your surgery?

 

[H.C.]

Right on schedule good teams always come back

You're right on schedule too.

 

[blazerfan11]

Now the Blazers get tired, go cold on offense and defense isn't much defense. Watching someone shoot a 3-pointer.

 

[DDolla]

Dammit. Dame's long shots are killing our momentum. He has to make those or not take them.

He will make the last one at the buzzer

 

[James lamphear]

There right back not moving the ball and taking long 3 is not going to get the job done.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Right on schedule good teams always come back

You may be right. We're a good team. We'll come back with a run here.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I was just thinking a minute ago: "you're up 12 points against a good team at their place with 7 minutes left; now you gotta step on the gas. Show some intensity." didn't happen....

 

[Tince]

This game has far exceeded my expectations!

 

[KSF-ERIC]

I was just thinking a minute ago: "you're up 12 points against a good team at their place with 7 minutes left; now you gotta step on the gas. Show some intensity." didn't happen....

Dame tried. Up 17, he took a long three but it didn't go in.

[UKRAINEFAN]

Dame tried. Up 17, he took a long three but it didn't go in.

I can't tell if that is sarcasm or not?

 

[Darkwebs]

Fantastic response by the Blazers!

 

[BlazerBeav]

That's how you answer - Dame, CJ, Melo all hit shots one after the other.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Houston was stupid to give up on Melo. It's hilarious.
