Game Thread GAME# 45: BLAZERS @ KINGS - JANUARY 14, 2019 - MONDAY, 7:00 PM, NBCSNW

[Strenuus]

Would it kill Terry to try something new when it isn't working

I'm starting to think it actually might.

 

[BonesJones]

For a team who's defense is designed to give up mid-range shots, we sure do shoot a lot of mid-range shots.

 

[BonesJones]

This team has to show some heart. If I was Stotts I'd be lighting them up for this lack of effort. If I would show more fire than these guys, that's a problem.

 

[LuckyShot]

The good news is Sacramento doesn't know what defense is.

 

[DDolla]

Oh noooo we are behind after 3. Let’s go guys show us you can comeback and win this one.

 

[hoopsjock]

Why does it seem like they have twice as many rebounders on both ends of the floor?

 

[BonesJones]

Oh look, we ran in transition and got our best look of the night!!!

Oh look, we ran in transition and got to the line!!!

Maybe we should run more in transition when our halfcourt offense is absolute crap?

 

[BonesJones]

"He does, they don't like to run though"...

Exactly!

 

[Strenuus]

Whelp, down going into the 4th. Another loss.

 

[TBpup]

At some point, doesn't there have to be a 4th quarter comeback?

Sadly the way this is going, it won't be tonight.

 

[BonesJones]

What the hell was that passing?!

We can't move the ball all game (because talent) but then we make all those insane passes?!

 

[Darkwebs]

I think this is the game where we finally break the 3-quarter streak!

 

[hoopsjock]

We made up 2 points that quarter!

 

[BonesJones]

Damn, Dame looks tired.

I wonder why?

 

[Sheldon Shape]

We haven't won a game this season while trailing in the third.

 

[BonesJones]

#progress

 

[Jon]

Welp, we lost. We are down going into the 4th.

 

[TBpup]

Damn, Dame looks tired.

I wonder why?

Because carrying MeJ is exhausting.

 

[Blazer4ever]

Stotts is so bad that he replaces Dame with Layman with 1.7 seconds to go in the 3rd for the sole reason of jinxing ZachCollins into missing his 2nd free throw

 

[BonesJones]

We haven't won a game this season while trailing in the third.

Well, silver lining if we lose: Those weird ass stat will continue!

 

[Chris Craig]

We haven't won a game this season while trailing in the third.

Eventually we will

Yeah!!!
Wait, what?

 

[KingSpeed]

You always look bad before comebacks. That’s how you fell behind.

 

[Jade Falcon]

I cannot express my love and appreciation for Dame enough. How much more must we place upon his shoulders?

 

[BonesJones]

Eventually we will

When we don't resort to hero ball isolations we will.

 

[TBpup]

"I love the way you move me"

....when most of the Blazers hardly move at all on offense.

 

[BonesJones]

Great music choice but "I love the way you move" should've only had Jake Layman clips behind it.

 

[TBpup]

How the hell is that a foul on Layman?

 

[BonesJones]

"I love the way you move me"

....when most of the Blazers hardly move at all on offense.

Hahaha

 

[BonesJones]

Meyers should make that pivot a part of his jumpshot
