Game Thread Game #45 - BLAZERS @ BOSTON CELTICS - JANUARY 21, 2022 - FRIDAY - 4:30 (PDT) ROOT SPORTS

FUCK THE CELTICS

Chauncey is a great Coach, with Stotts this would have been a blowout loss after the 2nd quarter

 

[illmatic99]

Our announcers made a point of showing Nurk's defense.

i watched the Yahoo stream and they had the Boston guys on tonight. Easier to just click that than go on VPN and log onto League Pass for me. I've been watching road team broadcasts to see what they say about our team as is.

Boston crew remains terrible even after Heinsohn passed.

Chauncey is levels above Stotts as a coach. He’s made more adjustments in game than I ever saw from Terrance.

I’m going to watch the replay and listen to that homer Celtics announcers.

Bro I’m still laughing at how obvious it is that CJ needs to go like WHAT ARE YOU STILL DOING HERE DOG

 

[riverman]

I think it's interesting that Chauncey and Nurk have the Denver connection and share the same agent....at any rate Nurk is playing like he should in a contract season

How do I find the Yahoo stream?
Are you watching League pass using a computer? My experience is League pass (and VPN) works much better (faster getting connected and no glitches) using a PC than an Ipad or the app on FireTV. I have the PC connected to the TV.

Me too.

 

[Mr. Robot]

were not just winning, were winning on the road too!

dame & cj mccollum absence (ill add powell too) really turned some things in this team, nurk & ant have blossomed, little is improving, roco is playing better, im sure thats correlation with these guys being out

that screams "awful roster construction", but we already know that, but more importantly, hopefully front office sees it too

 

[DUB]

3P%
Us - 48.5%
Them - 29.7%

3PM/A
Simons - 4/8
McCollum - 5/10
McLemore - 4/7

Tatum - 0/6
Brown - 2/7
Schroder - 1/5

 

[Scalma]

Who were the Celtics even missing tonight, just Smart? Btw he should be a Blazer. Celtics play like the Blazers did under Stotts. Just a bunch of iso ball with Tatum and Brown

nurk was having a career season when he broke his leg and that was after he got paid

sure, his play this season has a lot to do with him being in a contract season, but like i said, thats not the only reason, hell keep playing like this after he gets paid again, if they keep him inlvolved (provided he re-sign with us)

 

[Scalma]

U know who’s given solid minutes especially defensively Elleby

 

[Scalma]

 

[noknobs]

I haven't watched yet but I'm guessing that douchebag Schroder didn't get to celebrate like last time. Fuck that guy.

 

[Tince]

Great win. Nice having a coach who will call for the intentional foul instead of letting the opponents get a three off.

Agreed it is the right play. Though we have done this in previous seasons as well.

 

[tlongII]

I’m a huge Nurk fan and I hope people realize it would not be a good idea to trade him.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

WTF is ROOT showing? Midget Little people boxing?!?

 

[Scalma]

The difference between Stotts and Billups is Stotts would’ve pulled the plug on playing thru Nurk after a couple turnovers. Billups is sticking with him, even with CJ back, and it’s paying off. Aiight I’m done.

 

[Tince]

The pro-Ime Udoka crowd from this offseason is very quiet

 

[blazerfan11]

I was thinking that too during the doldrums of tonight's game. Who brings energy consistently for the Blazers? Elleby is near the top of that list.

 

[BoomChakaLaka]

That was a nice win in Boston!

I still like Ime.

Yahoo Sports has been doing a free LP preview the past week or so. Just go to their box scores online and it starts the stream.

i usually watch on my mac otherwise. VPN to India, then log onto LP on either Chrome or Safari. Works fine but not as simple

 

[BoomChakaLaka]

What is the story with Norm Powell ?

have they said what his personal time off is all about?
Thanks
