Game Thread GAME# 50: BUCKS @ BLAZERS - FEBRUARY 2, 2016 - TUESDAY, 7:00 PM (PST), CSNNW

[SlyPokerDog]

Tonight's win is No. 162 for Terry Stotts as head coach of the Trail Blazers, tied with Maurice Cheeks for fifth-most in team history.

 

[riverman]

creeping up on a 500 record..proud of the good guys! In November we were predicted by everyone to be 29th in the league

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum are one of three pairs of teammates with 1,000 points each this year (Curry/Thompson-GS, DeRozan/Lowry-TOR).

So, four of those 6 players made the All-Star Game.

No joke. More salt on the wound.

 

[Scalma]

Trade Henderson, then bring him back next year lol.

 

[LuckyShot]

I like Hendo.

 

[riverman]

A win streak like this makes me appreciate the whole team....winning stops whining!

 

[illmatic99]

CJ was unstoppable

 

[Jade Falcon]

Good win tonight! GO BLAZERS, and goodnight.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Dame's All-Star exclusion is clearly ties to PA's incident of destroying the reef. It's so obvious.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Portland has held its opponent below 100 points in four straight games (all wins). The Trail Blazers are 15-4 this season in such games.

Thank God - feel so bad for your son and him having to deal with your crying.

 

[riverman]

I look at the allstar exclusion as purely a diversionary tactic....Dame has more important things to do...he's the secret weapon

Defense rocks!

He's thousands of miles away right now on a sub tropical island...not a problem, I can weep until I laugh all night long tonight

Just giving you shit, brother! Where is he? He's a good kid, my man! Hope he can come join the crew for another event! It's clear he enjoys this as a bonding experience with his dad, as he said that. I get it - UCD have long been fans and it's always been something to shoot the shit over. Good times and bad. Blazers give us something to talk and bond over when we know the other doesn't wanna dig too deep.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Another solid victory! The defense was great in the 4th. Now the real test of the homestand - beat a good Toronto team and we'll take a lot of momentum to Houston.

He's in Taiwan for cousins wedding and Chinese New Year with my better half...they're gone for a month...havin' a blast...touring the island, eating the good stuff...we Skype everyday and they make me jealous, then I crawl off into my zen like hermitude! Going to take his girlfriend to the Ducks game Thurs night and howl at the moon!

 

[Pinwheel1]

So at some point we have all wished at one time or another that we had one of the 5 Bucks starters.....starting for us.
And although they are all decent players, are really any of them that great?

Middleton: I like a lot, even thought he shot poorly tonight.
Giannis: I would still love to have, but he is a shitty outside shooter
Monroe.....good scorer but bad D
Parker: Teams tanked for this guy? Total tweener
MCW: Good bench player, but again no outside shot.

 

[illmatic99]

It worries me that Monroe was such a hot target for Neil.

That guy is garbage. Especially against our shitty front line defense, I expected him to dominate.

Talk about dodged bullet

He had a bad game but has been very good for them.

or Jason Kidd is just not a big man coach

 

[Darkwebs]

Bayless looks exactly like this guy I know that I hate.

Is the guy that you hate named Jerryd?

 

[Darkwebs]

Neil has dodged a lot of bullets with his failed signings.

It's getting to the point where I'm starting to think that maybe Stotts makes the players in his system look better than they are. If those players signed with us, maybe they would look like great signings.

 

[THE HCP]

Was that hcp doing the robot?

 

[riverman]

HCP dropping knowledge...how to properly prune a hedge

 

[Blazers Roy]

CJ can buy his boat now, he's getting that max contract. Seems like his defense and passing are improving while the season is moving forward.

I love watching the tank burn!

Fuck you ,tank!

 

[BBert]

That guy is garbage. Especially against our shitty front line defense, I expected him to dominate.

Maybe he would have been better in a supporting role to LaMarCooch, with our backcourt and wing players spreading the court?

 

[Bob Dobalina]

Anyone happen to have a download link to this game? My son was sitting courtside next to the Blazers bench last night.

Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum are one of three pairs of teammates with 1,000 points each this year (Curry/Thompson-GS, DeRozan/Lowry-TOR).

Incorrect stat. Westbrook/Durant are both over 1,000 points, and Klay is only at 985.

I think that meant guard tandems.
