Game Thread GAME# 48: TIMBERWOLVES @ BLAZERS - JANUARY 24, 2018 - WEDNESDAY, 7:00 PM (PST), NBCSNW

[Optimistic Bob]

So good !!! Way to go team !!

 

[noknobs]

Meyers was more productive in his three minutes of play than Layman, Moe and Vonleh combined... he had a rebound.

 

[The Professional Fan]

So good !!! Way to go team !!

GO FIGHT WIN

Certain things that bring back positive Blazer related memories:

The Bi-Mart jingle
"Franz bread the good bread, flavor beyond compare"
"Merry Christmas...from Payless...Merry Chrisssssstmas"
"More more more...how do you like it, how do you like it"

Hearing the original version of Capital City (aka, "the horns" )

"That's Tom Peterson's, the HAPPY place to buy!"

 

[The Professional Fan]

I’d be feeling pretty damn good about this team right now had we closed out Denver

 

[ripcityboy]

I used to clown pat before he got minutes and played well but damn man dudes a stud. Motherfucker can play baseball and basketball at a high level.

Reminds me of Jeff Samardzija, the Giants pitcher. He was considered one of the top WR draft prospects in the country but chose a baseball career. Played for Notre Dame like Pat did. Athletes like that are highly coveted by the NFL and MLB who try to push them to one sport early in their age.

 

[Strenuus]

"That's Tom Peterson's, the HAPPY place to buy!"

AND GLORIAS TOO!

 

[theprunetang]

You guys know how I feel about Pat.

 

[Darkwebs]

AND GLORIAS TOO!

"Free is a very good price!"

 

[ripcityboy]

You guys know how I feel about Pat.

Like you do about Gruyère at the right serving temperature with the correct wine selection?

 

[Pinwheel1]

Lot of players with big games. Dame and CJ obviously.
Aminu started out slow but ended up having a very solid game.
ET (9 points ,6 assists)
Davis --10 boards
Pat Looked like Rudy tonight

 

[Boob-No-More]

Is Western Conference Player if the Month within reach for Dame? He's shooting .506/.439/.885 for the month.

BNM

 

[riverman]

Maybe Dame's meeting with PA was about who he didn't want to trade instead of who he wanted to bring in

 

[LayneStaley]

Lol @ Myers and Hark making 10 mil a year. Has any gm ever handed out 5 regrettable contracts in ONE offseason before?

5?

Meyers, Hark, Crabbe and Turner. Who is #5? Did I forget someone??

 

[EGame]

Maybe hes assuming nurk next year

Don't think he has the wins. Curry putting up 30/7/6 over this month on nearly the same percentages

Nailed it. As long is it the good cave-aged Gruyère. I would liken Pat more to Époisses de Bourgogne. It doesn't look like it should be good. But it will blow your mind if given a chance.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Of course this was the game I had to skip - looks like a solid performance. Can't figure this team out whatsoever. Ah well, beat Dallas and keep the momentum going!

 

[Boob-No-More]

5?

Ezeli? At least it was for only one year.

It was also the summer he gave C.J. his $106 million extension.

CJ....he’s a good player but he’s paid like a stud.

 

[theprunetang]

CJ....he’s a good player but he’s paid like a stud.

CJ deserves the contract. You know it is market value when 29 other teams would happily trade for the guy. No one trading for him is going to demand us taking back a bad contract or anything like that.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Wiggins led his team in scoring, yet also had the worst +/- with -24
Towns had solid numbers, yet I thought he would be better by now, even if he did make the all star team.

I'm not sure why Towns didn't get more shots. He had an advantage every time he had the ball.

 

[riverman]

CJ has started to pass the ball....you can see he's making the effort the last 3 games. He seems to be a second half shooter...

 

[riverman]

Good defense

CJ is the 3rd highest paid SG and 19th highest paid player this season. I can name 29 players id rather have, every team has at least 1.

He is a very good offensive guard though.

He didn't have to guard Jimmy Butler tonight...Jimmy Butler owns CJ

Seems like he hangs outside too much.
