Game Thread GAME# 45: WARRIORS @ BLAZERS - JANUARY 20, 2020 - MONDAY, 7:00 PM, TNT

[UKRAINEFAN]

Gutty performance overcoming Trent and Anf shooting.

 

[Darkwebs]

great to see a win after the effort that Damian Lillard put in tonight

Undoubtedly. The team already wasted his 60-point game against the Nets earlier this season

 

[Scalma]

Is Little injured or what the fuck 15 minutes?

 

[TBpup]

Career high 61 for Dame....so awesome for him! But if that is what it takes to beat the worst team in the league, at home, everything else is downright depressing.

 

[Five Second Violation]

Glad to see Dame set his career high in a win.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

40 points after halftime

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

At least Hezonja decided to put up his hands on that last one.

Quick (not Jason!) observations:

1) Dame is a monster!
2) Why does our defense keep making players like Burke look like an allstar?
3) On draft day, how did NBA talent evaluators decide there were 40 players better than Paschall?
4) Dame is a monster!!!

 

[Darkwebs]

At lest Hezonja decided to put up his hands on that last one.

Better late than never.

 

[Scalma]

Trent didn’t shoot well but he still competed defensively, thought he did a good job on Russell in the fourth.

 

[Tince]

Is Little injured or what the fuck 15 minutes?

He's not very good.

#3 - Paschall's name came up here several times last year on the board and IIRC, there was at least one Mock that has us taking him at one point.

Was great to see Ant and Trent take advantage of the opportunity and go 2/19 from three. Dame did okay too.

 

[James lamphear]

Dame Whiteside Trent Simons Melo all double figure in scoring. Now they get 2 day of rest until the next game. Hopefully some those sick player can get well.

 

[illmatic99]

cant believe we are running our franchise's best player ever into the ground like this.

 

[TBpup]

LeBron's son playing for the Blazers!

 

[oldmangrouch]

My lord, is this what being a Blazers fan has come to... getting excited about beating the worst team in the league at home in OT

Maybe people are excited over Dame's performance?

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

He's not very good.

Yeh, so far that is correct. He looks like the kind of guy who could get homesick.

 

[HailBlazers]

I will say this, Dame said to Melo, SURRY BRO MY TEAM

And yet the TNT cameras focus on Melo after the game instead of Dame and Steph wtf

 

[illmatic99]

Trent didn’t shoot well but he still competed defensively, thought he did a good job on Russell in the fourth.

he made some really dumb fouls late

 

[kjironman1]

Lillard with 61 points in a win on National TV!
That's why we watch the games!

 

[wizenheimer]

setting aside the point about needing overtime, at home, to beat the team with the worst record in the league....

this was just about the most entertaining game of the year...and yeah, that says a lot about the year

 

[B-Roy]

cant believe we are running our franchise's best player ever into the ground like this.

Some people just hate fun.

 

[42N8Bounce]

No sympathy here for GSW. Blazers missing 4 starters.

Dame
61 points
7 assists
10 rebounds
OT win
Wow

Great hard-fought victory!

 

[illmatic99]

Some people just hate fun.

wasting dame's prime like this is not depressing?

 

[Tince]

wasting dame's prime like this is not depressing?

If Dame playing when the team sucks is depressing you, come back in October.

 

[A$AP Meyers]

I wanted to trade CJ boy am I a dumbass

we’ve gotten a good look at Anfernee this year

he’s nowhere close to being close. horrendous defender, weak, struggles to create space , and that hitch in his jumper is glaring. he was shooting 24% from 3 in our last 19 games going into tonight and I think he was 1-9 tonight

 

[kjironman1]

Next up get one back from the Mavs.

 

[Tince]

Imagine if Dame had a teammate or two that could've knocked down a few wide open threes, he would've had a triple double!

 

[kjironman1]

Wondering how bad 1M sprained his ankle?
