Game Thread GAME #48 - BLAZERS VS MAVERICKS - JANUARY 26, 2022 - WEDNESDAY - 7:00 PM (PDT) ROOT SPORTS

[blazerfan11]

Would be nice to see Watford and Elleby to start the second half with Nurkic and two the of small guards. Even 68 points for the Mavs might not budge Billups. Maybe he's just as stubborn as McMillan or Stotts in the end.

 

[Predator]

Tony Snell shouldn’t play unless everyone fouls out and even then we might be better off playing 5 on 4.

 

[Chris Craig]

Who is that in place of Michael holton

 

[illmatic99]

So Elleby can play

 

[James lamphear]

Now 2 games in row we had terrible 2nd half.

 

[James lamphear]

Down 6 but Powell needs to finish at the rim.

 

[OneSport3]

Tony Snell is supposed to be a 3-and-D guy. He is neither of those right now.

 

[Five Second Violation]

Whoa, a lob!

 

[illmatic99]

Whoa. What a play. What a pass and finish

 

[illmatic99]

Norm is killing our momentum

 

[Predator]

If just one of our god damn guards could focus on playmaking for more than one possession in a row it would be revolutionary.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Simons needs to learn how to go to the FT line. He should work on that this summer

 

[BlazerBeav]

We’ve clawed our way back in but keep missing chances to tie it up. Refs aren’t helping.

 

[PCmor7]

Norm Powell is brutal.

 

[illmatic99]

Why no Elleby

 

[BlazerBeav]

CJ gets the dumbest flagrant fouls.

 

[BlazerBeav]

What a joke. Nowhere near his face. Powell should get a T for flopping.

 

[OneSport3]

Another one of those questionable/dirty flagrants by CJ.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Only 1 more FGA than Watford and Elleby. His opportunities/rhythm have definitely declined since CJ and then Norm came back. That is why I have some concern about how he would play with Dame even if CJ and/or Norm were gone.

Hes to shy. He needs to be aggressive and dominant. Call me crazy but a little more ball hog in him

 

[BlazerBeav]

Another one of those questionable/dirty flagrants by CJ.

That one was bullshit.

 

[Chris Craig]

Another one of those questionable/dirty flagrants by CJ.

That wasn't a flagrant

Powell flopped like a bitch

 

[Tince]

How many flagrant fouls does CJ have in his career? This is getting real old.

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

CJ pushes off a lot. Steve Jones called that a "pork chop".

 

[BlazerBeav]

The free throw line is beating us again....and that was a flagrant by CJ according to the radio guys who saw the replay...elbow to the throat

Multiple in arena replays. That did not hit his throat.

 

[RipCity4Life0]

Is Luka gonna ever sit down? it feels like he’s played this whole game.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Stop passing to Norm. Jesus.

 

[BlazerBeav]

radio guys disagree with you.....they saw the replays and all 3 guys said it was to the throat

yeah and based on their spin attempts on this horrible season, that’s worth not much.

 

[illmatic99]

that got ugly quickly.

might wanna guard the threes

 

[Chris Craig]

Powell is shit tonight

 

[blazerkor]

Well we got it to within 4 at the beginning of the third and then laid an egg.
