Game Thread GAME# 44: BLAZERS @ NUGGETS - JANUARY 13, 2019 - SUNDAY, 5:00 PM, NBCSNW

[TBpup]

Have to get the lead back by the end of the 3rd.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Either it's a foul or it's not.

Agreed, just it seemed like the ref sat there and thought about it, and that was my interpretation of it.

 

[JDC]

Just double of Torrey Craig...isn't that hard.

 

[BonesJones]

And then we have to over help because Aminu is such a mismatch and give then a wide open 3.

 

[BonesJones]

TURNER SO SLOW TO GET BACK

 

[Jade Falcon]

Sigh.

 

[VenomXL]

Disaster end to the quarter.

 

[BonesJones]

Thanks Terry Stotts. You goddamn moron.

 

[illmatic99]

I hate this lineup. 2 on 5

 

[TBpup]

Game over. We aren't going to have the lead at the end of the quarter which means a loss. Ugh....

 

[BlazerBeav]

What is with Dame getting stripped up top lately?

 

[DDolla]

You know when the Blazers are behind after 3, it’s time to turn off the TV and save energy.

 

[Chris Craig]

Fuck these refs

 

[Chris Craig]

Why the fuck are we guarding Jokic with Aminu????????

Cause Stotts is stupid

 

[ripcityboy]

Takes Layman out for ET.

Purs Aminu on JOKIC.

Immediately go down by 7

Fuck Terry.

 

[BonesJones]

Literally just handed them momentum because we decided to guard Jokic with Aminu, who can't guard him down low, and we don't know who to double off of so we have 5 defenders standing on top of each other in the paint.

Terry Stotts is at fault for that entire run.

 

[James lamphear]

While we are starting to shit this game away.

 

[TBpup]

Takes Layman out for ET.

Purs Aminu on JOKIC.

Immediately go down by 7

Fuck Terry.

You do have to question moves like that. Good grief.

 

[BonesJones]

SIGH

 

[LuckyShot]

Takes Layman out for ET.

Purs Aminu on JOKIC.

Immediately go down by 7

Fuck Terry.

It's like he looked at the lineup on the floor and asked himself "how can I fuck us up on both offense and defense in 2 or less substitutions that don't involve Meyers?..."

 

[illmatic99]

Dame is killing us right now

 

[VenomXL]

Ballgame.

 

[BonesJones]

We're so bad on the road at the end of the 3rd quarter....

 

[BonesJones]

Figure it out Terry. You're paid to do so.

 

[TBpup]

Here is one thing that Layman has such a positive effect on the rest of the team.....player movement. When he goes out, it immediately turns into much more of an ISO game with lots of standing around.

 

[LuckyShot]

That was their 3rd foul of the quarter? LOL.

 

[Strenuus]

So predictable.

 

[VenomXL]

They have damn near 100 points. That's terrible.

 

[ripcityboy]

Defense has been weak all game. And we are still looking for that set up three for Dame and CJ when they have been holding ALL FUCKING GAME. Jeez. Don't we have a way to open up the offense?! They are going to just pull away...

 

[BonesJones]

Here is one thing that Layman has such a positive effect on the rest of the team.....player movement. When he goes out, it immediately turns into much more of an ISO game with lots of standing around.

Yup. But he'll play 12 minutes while scoring 11 points and helping the entire offense.
