Game Thread GAME# 48: BUCKS @ BLAZERS - APRIL 2, 2021 - FRIDAY, 7:00, NBATV & NBCSNW

[Serbian]

Giannins.....47 points on 21 shots....without a made '3'.

Damn!

Only against swiss cheese Portland defense of stotts. I also remember Randle dropin 45 vs us and zion and every other great big player destroys this team in paint. And DJ no where to be found still on bench because we have to to play melo. This coach is arguably the worst coach in history. Spineless bastard keeps playing brick melo and no adjustment on defense ever

 

[illmatic99]

for idiot terry's sake, jones better have an injury for getting benched in the 2nd half

 

[Tince]

wouldnt get nearly as much hate if terry didn't treat him like he's above the rest of his teammates.

 

[TBpup]

Nice pass Harry!

 

[OneSport3]

Is DJJ hurt? Or is he in that not good enough to play competitive minutes but too good for garbage minutes purgatory?

 

[Tince]

 

[Chris Craig]

Glad we don't have to play them anymore

 

[DDolla]

That 3 guard starting five is really good. We just bench DJJ

 

[TBpup]

Glad we don't have to play them anymore

What are they in two games against us....plus around 50?

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Will our Summer League team play theirs?

 

[James lamphear]

Not good game but I am not going get to excited about this team. Defense is still bad and the offense system really not very good either. Good teams beats us because our offense not hard contain. We got out score 58-24 in the paint and they 82 percent on those makes its hard to win games when you give that difference between the teams. Will it's not forget about this game and play better tomorrow.

Best team won tonight.
Blazers absolutely need to make teams pay for doubling Lillard.
Didn't happen tonight.

Pick up the pieces and win a game tomorrow.

No, Bucks won't make it. They will run Giannis into the ground and they will flake out in the playoffs again.

 

[DDolla]

Glad we play another garbage team tomorrow. That’s all we can beat right now.

 

[blazerkor]

Well until the third quarter I was going to talk about how missed open shots made this game meaningless but then we got ourselves back in it. Then we showed that we're nowhere close to as good as the Bucks. I don't know if this is a game that we can pass a verdict by watching but it was incredibly frustrating. Dame had a great game, his teammates (more than usual) let him down on offense... Dame should have had at least ten assists.

One thing was for sure, we showed that we have absolutely no coaching on the defensive end. No game plan for Giannis?!? I mean fucking really?!? We knew we were going to play against the guy and we came out like we were surprised that the back to back MVP was a threat. That was pathetic.

Stotts isn't using Powell right. He is way over playing Melo and benching DJJ. What the fuck kind of coaching is that?

 

[hoopsjock]

Blazers play a good team and the results aren't good, the Blazers Uprise Postgame Show begins in a few minutes.

n0t a single double team.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Of course Giannis went off and we lost. We were playing without our starting 7 foot power forward. Not to mention Little. Too many injuries to beat a team like Milwaukee.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I'm not sure if we're going to get free chicken McNuggies.

Hey, it's nice to be wrong!

Lol

Collins would have fouled him 6 times. Next.

 

[Strenuus]

Can't beat the good teams when they lose 3 out of 4.

Same as it ever was.

Hahahahahahahahahaha. Love it, these takes are great.

Would have played better than Nurk

 

[KSF-ERIC]

This is what happens when you play a real team

Are the healthy Lakers and Sixers good teams?

To far and few between

 

[PCmor7]

Adding something to my criticism of Nurk. To be fair to him, he might legitimately have something going on emotionally or psychologically. It's been documented how the death of his grandmother affected him, and some people don't get through something like that quickly or ever. If that's somehow part of what's going on with him, his performance is more understandable, and I don't want to be critical of someone trying to go about their life while dealing with depression. He's on the floor entertaining me, but I don't own his life. I just hope if that is the case that he's got a good support system to help get him through it.
