Game Thread GAME# 51: BLAZERS @ JAZZ - APRIL 8, 2021 - THURSDAY, 7:00, NBCSNW

Look at our widen open looks now and a sembjebce of D

Giles is very mobile, Stotts could've decided to play him and pressure the screen, but didn't. I told you this would happen with Kanter being dropped off screens. Stotts still played him WITH Melo, saw it get demolished, then called a timeout and made ZERO adjustments!!!!!

Giles would've been a better (not great) option other than Kanter, I agree. Double failure by Stotts and Olshey.

 

[B-Roy]

I’m convinced a lot of our issues would be solved if we just stopped playing Melo entirely.

 

[OneSport3]

Watch them cut the lead to single digits then Stotts will put Melo in...

 

[TBpup]

Jordan Kent's mic came on during the commercial and he said "We just missed shots"

Kent just polishing up the company line.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Lillard is trash. I mean this worst stretch I have ever seen him struggle. Midrange gone 3 pter gone missing FTs turning ball over commiting dumb fouls. Game over blow out. I think he should consider resting 2 weeks because he is on empty with 25 games left

Ooooowie if I had said this ya would have crucified me lmao

 

[VenomXL]

Warm up the plane. Get the snacks ready.

 

[Tince]

I will say, of the 41 threes we've taken, at least 30 of them were good looks by good shooters. We made 1-2 of the bad attempts, but 8-30 on good looks is not going to cut it.

 

[B-Roy]

no melo, no kanter. can we please keep this for the rest of the existence of the Blazers franchise

ftfy

 

[illmatic99]

Now is where fight tooth and nail to claw back in it only to end up short because we’re gassed from the big comeback

lol this team doesnt have the pride for that.

 

[TBpup]

One team that has had a day off and has been waiting in town....looks tired.
One team that played in a different city and had to go into OT....looks fresh.

 

[Blazinaway]

he should sit rest of year, sick of him

It's just baffling how we can all see the issue but Stotts doesn't change anything.

Should've went small and ran a Nas/DJJ/RoCo combination and trapped.

 

[EGame]

At this point I would take a close loss to a good team. The fact we keep getting blown out against them proves we are no where close to a play off team.

I like that lineup better as well.

 

[Serbian]

Why CAN i not wake up tmrw and “ BREAKING NEWS Portland parts ways with stotts “!!! Why? Stotts is the worst coach that has ever existed. When will he be fired? How much longer?? 10 years of stotts cant take it anymore

 

[Sheldon Shape]

Brilliant Stotts saving all his timeouts so he can try to sell them for points later.

 

[trailblazer18]

How did we ever beat Dallas a couple weeks ago?

 

[Scalma]

This is one of the worst coached games ever and just shows terry’s stubbornness. No adjustments and went away from what worked for no reason.

 

[Tince]

Bench 1-8 from 3 on top of Dame/CJ going 6-21 from 3. Yuck

 

[illmatic99]

we are not even close to their level

 

[LayneStaley]

Looking forward to reading all the excuses in this thread for Pdx getting curb stomped by a team that lost in OT last night. Let’s hear em turd shiners.

 

[VenomXL]

Bah. Getting clowned on.

 

[Darkwebs]

Looks like Mitchell is as good at lob passes as Dame

 

[B-Roy]

Only thing that can save this team is an injury.

 

[julius]

At this point, why are CJ and Dame still in the game?

 

[Chris Craig]

Warm up the plane. Get the snacks ready.

They don't deserve any snacks

 

[Scalma]

So glad there’s no injury excuse anymore and Stotts can be exposed for the fraud he is.

 

[BlazerBeav]

We have an MVP candidate and have somehow in two years been lapped by Phoenix and Utah. Unbelievable.

 

[Natebishop3]

Are we seriously gonna let Stotts ride out the whole year?
