My .net connection hasn't crapped out once, so the basketball Gods must be merciful today.

 

[HailBlazers]

I love transition basketball

Who woulda thunk!? Shonz could coach this team better.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

This type of game from CJ is why I find it so hard to judge him overall, and when we talk trades it's like I have no idea what his trade value is... He can be at times an extremely special scorer and then at times he is just a ball stopper. When he is on though, watch out.

 

[James lamphear]

Good to see CJ scoring off other players passes for assist and so far 10 fast break points.

 

[riverman]

We have a real rim protector!

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Nurk is so good

 

[riverman]

That was a Sabonis move by Nurk!

 

[BonesJones]

ET with the fake turnover and assist.

 

[illmatic99]

CJ's shot is so much better when he gets good elevation

 

[Labinot41]

Nurk already 5/5/3

 

[Darkwebs]

LOL. Kemba plays a lot like Dame, trying to draw the foul on the 3-ball

 

[LuckyShot]

CJ is just in the zone tonight.

 

[illmatic99]

Jesus ET

 

[BonesJones]

ET 3 in transition is terrible.

 

[HailBlazers]

BEAST

 

[riverman]

3 bosnianbeastblocks with time left in the first qtr...wow

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Besides that transition 3 by Kemba the Blazers have played very good defense. Nurk basically owns the paint.

 

[illmatic99]

Dame is working HARD on D

 

[LuckyShot]

Nurk is beasting them on defense.

 

[TBpup]

Nurk with 4 blocks already!

 

[BonesJones]

Charlotte playing 0 defense hahaha

 

[LuckyShot]

Aminu and Nurk fighting for that rebound lol

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

You'd think someone on the Blazers would tell Aminu and Nurkc "same team" lol.

 

[Darkwebs]

Is Charlotte so bad that Aminu and Nurk has to compete with each other instead of the Hornets?

 

[TBpup]

Batum didn't score against Layman in 7 minutes....has 8 already against Turner in 5 minutes.

 

[HailBlazers]

Nurk with 4 blocks already!

Funny to think there used to be Nurk Haters

 

[Labinot41]

Aminu and Nurk fighting for that rebound lol

Hahahahaha i was like wtf are they doing

 

[Jade Falcon]

Nurk with the Block Of Truth. He's pimping that ball out.

 

[riverman]

I still like Nico...he's got that Stacey Augmon-like smooth game ..when he's on he's fun to watch.

 

[BonesJones]

Batum didn't score against Layman in 7 minutes....has 8 already against Turner in 5 minutes.

Yup.

Turner has super inconsistent defense.
