Game Thread GAME# 43: BLAZERS @ MAVERICKS - JANUARY 17, 2020 - FRIDAY, 6:30 PM, ESPN & NBCSNW

Seems like we should be involving Whiteside more in the offense; we only have a couple guys who can score consistently.

This is exactly what they needed. Just be in the game at the end. Keep playing and keep working.

 

[Tince]

I'm always amazed that while a game is going on some of you guys can find time to have 15 post arguments

I must be a really slow typist. I'm a fast drinker though so it evens out

You're under-estimating everyone's ability to use the Copy & Paste function from previous game threads!

Dallas are also sponsored by Biofreeze. I feel betrayed.

You guys keep saying hedge the pick. But the Blazers don’t have a player strong enough and mobile enough to do it. Exactly who do you want on the floor doing it?

I've seen Hassan do it this season man. It's also better than literally giving Luka a wide open shot every time there is a screen for him.

 

[Neil O. Shyster]

Love how the team shares the ball without CJ

 

[Tince]

Tolliver hedges and gives us our 3rd team foul. It's so easy though.

 

[DDolla]

Luka missed, Foul Blazers lol

 

[DUB]

Bullshit ref! No way that gets called if Doncic makes the layup.

 

[Neil O. Shyster]

That’s a valid foul call

 

[Sheldon Shape]

I don't know what Nassir Little did to this coach. He shows grit, hustle and a willingness to play defense and he can't get on the floor even with so many players injured. We can use him right now.

 

[B-Roy]

These refs are something else.

 

[James lamphear]

It is the right call but the referee that call he was looking up court when he heard player fall he look back then call it. Big problem with NBA refs.

 

[Jon]

The NBA doesnt want Luka to lose on national tv.

 

[DUB]

We can’t win without stops.

 

[DDolla]

Seth Curry abusing Simons lol

 

[VenomXL]

How is that a foul???

 

[Neil O. Shyster]

That was a clean block!

 

[Tince]

It seems like challenges where there was any contact rarely get over-turned. I don't expect this one will, but I hope I'm wrong!

 

[DUB]

I thought Hassan got all ball up top, but also got body down low. We’ll see.

 

[VenomXL]

Mavs are hitting some very timely outside shots in this quarter.

 

[Neil O. Shyster]

Now if refs don’t overturn this, then that is a legit bad call

 

[BigGameDamian]

Maybe Dame should get injured just for shits & giggles.

 

[Tince]

It seems like challenges where there was any contact rarely get over-turned. I don't expect this one will, but I hope I'm wrong!

Yes!!

 

[DUB]

I thought Hassan got all ball up top, but also got body down low. We’ll see.

Different angle shows Hassan got arm, but it gets overturned. WTF?

Given all the BS earlier in the game, I’ll take it. Still doesn’t make up for it though.

 

[Neil O. Shyster]

Terrible Melo

 

[VenomXL]

Ouch. Missing big opportunities here.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Dammit

 

[DUB]

So close, yet so far.
