Game Thread Game #43 - BLAZERS @ ORLANDO MAGIC - JANUARY 17 2022 - MONDAY - 4:00 PM (PDT) ROOT SPORTS

[Blazinaway]

interested in seeing how ant and CJ play together. CJ prolly needs a few games to get back up to speed but still should be fun to have him back.

will CJ help or hurt da tank?

i just want him to increase his trade value and remind people/teams that he can still be a good perimeter scorer.

a month away from playing and you become undervalued (in media circles anyway). With about 3 weeks to go before the deadline, i need CJ to drop 25-30 a night and shoot 40+% from 3.

wins/losses are immaterial to me at the moment. my brain is telling me we need to lose, but it's also fine with me personally if we get a few more wins than we need.

I'm listening on the radio and the magic scored.... I heard nothing. Is it empty?!

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Nice blockout, Tony. Our defense is bad tonight; luckily Orland not shooting well.

 

[illmatic99]

tough start for ant

 

[Pinwheel1]

So far the Blazers have looked better with CJ and Ant on the court together.
