Game Thread GAME# 5: CLIPPERS @ BLAZERS - OCTOBER 26, 2017 - THURSDAY, 7:00 (PDT), NBCSNW

Man honestly imo great leader, great human being but very overrated

I know, Tunchi! Its just so crazy. How you been?

 

[Jade Falcon]

Oh yeab.....looks like an easy win alright. Some of you are stupid as fuck.

 

[ripcityboy]

I don't know about you guys.... but you know what we need more screens and running CJ around the entire perimeter so he can take shots from the edge of the bass line. Fuck just run CJ and Dame in circles the entire game. Keep them guessing.

We still can blow them out technically

 

[H.C.]

I hate when he takes 2 for 1's every time. I mean, just a bad basketball play to get two shots before time runs out.


Seriously, though, he does take some stupid shots at times.

I didn't like that last 2-1 attempt either, but I mean you heard Stotts yelling 33, 33, 33 via our announcers mics. It was clear what they were trying to do.

 

[illmatic99]

Oh Jesus H. Christ we go through this every year... he is streaky. He will go through a 3-4 game stretch of 25% shooting from 3 then he will explode for 7-8 games.

still waiting for him to figure out shot selection. it's year 6. he's the heart and soul, but dude needs to open his eyes. Or terry needs to wake the fuck up and coach his ass

I kind of wish that the ball would be under the feet of one of our 3 best scorers and then they move around like the egg game, and the defense has to follow it and hope they are right. If not, we get automatic points.

Yeah an easy win for the clippers

 

[BrunoSOC]

I cant stand Lillard right now. He is vegan for real? Please back to normal

 

[Chris Craig]

Blazers are going to have to hack the shit out of Jordan

 

[BrunoSOC]

I dont believe we can win this game. For real. Playing bad

 

[KingSpeed]

Defense sucks. Can't let Clippers stay undefeated. Gotta dig deep and ffs DUNK THE DAMN BALL!!!

 

[Labinot41]

Dame playing like trash this year

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

He's a superstar with unlimited range. He can take any shot he feels he can make imo. It's not like he is a ball hog either.

 

[KingSpeed]

Looks like he makes FTs this year.

 

[craigehlo]

Out-coached by Rivers again? With no CP3?

They aren't disrupting passes or drives in the paint, and are leaving 3 point shooters wide open. Just commit to shutting one of them down! I don't care which.

 

[Chris Craig]

What a horrible uninspiring end to the half. Shitty passing and shooting. Most of the game so far has pretty much been the Clippers at the line

 

[KingSpeed]

Anyone else miss Mason Plumlee in a game like this?

 

[A$AP Meyers]

hot take: dame is a bad shooter

No he isn't but he could take better shots. He settles too much which doesn't make sense because he's great a finishing at the rim. That's the best way to get yourself going too, get to the cup and get some easy ones/draw some fouls

 

[Sinobas]

Blazers won't win this one. The refs are calling everything on one end and not the other, but Portland is giving them a lot of good looks, and Portland isn't getting as many good looks on the other end.

Blazers are looking like a very mediocre team right now.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

I will say that Gallo would fit our team like a glove.

 

[KingSpeed]

Pretty amazing that this is our biggest deficit of the year. We can come back.

 

[GrandJury]

I know, Tunchi! Its just so crazy. How you been?

Great game today

Go blazers

 

[julius]

Caveat...I only listened to the game so far, but what happened to the team that was going to come out strong this season?

They came out strong against the JV team (Phoenix) and Indiana, but have been so-so ever since.

 

[illmatic99]

He's a superstar with unlimited range. He can take any shot he feels he can make imo. It's not like he is a ball hog either.

his shooting ability does not warrant the selection. he's not steph curry. he shouldn't shoot steph curry shots. fadeaway stepback with 2 guys in his face from 29 feet is a shit shot for everyone in this league.

 

[Labinot41]

I Wonder where is the confidence from Post All Star ?

Considering we are in that 6-8 range in the west... mediocre is pretty spot on.

I think we all know it, we need a third guy who can score.

 

[Paine Tablet]

This halftime music reminds me of the church I live next to which blasts shitty Mexican music across the neighborhood during the evening hours 3-4 nights a week. If this is a reason a church might get burned down, I completely understand the motive.

 

[H.C.]

I don't see Portland playing defense like they did in the first 4.
Looks like they're just trying to out score the Clippers.
Hopefully they come out with more energy on the defensive end in the 2nd half.

 

[ripcityboy]

!@@!!$@ Kiko Alonso just killed Joe Flacco. Any of you guys see that hit?!
