Game Thread GAME# 51: BLAZERS @ MAVERICKS - FEBRUARY 7, 2015 - SATURDAY, 5:30 PM (PST), CSNNW

Well that sucked...

 

[KingSpeed]

CJ had back to back good games. That's a positive to take from this one

Yeah, tough loss...I've seen a lot of them over the years. Nobody argues about it but it is what it is...to some of us., anger is bullshit

Amen

 

[oldmangrouch]

Definitely. And Lillard broke out of his slump.

Really? Then who was wearing Dame's jersey during OT?

 

[KingSpeed]

It's more than a tough loss, it's devastating. You're up double digits with two minutes left, blow it, get blown out in OT and have to get on a fucking airplane and get ready to play a better team tomorrow.

It's not devastating. When we win the championship in June, you won't carr about a loss in February.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

That cant happen. if someone we got sniffed 10 points stotts would put batum back in to restore order.

Fuck it, it could light a fire under his French ass to get benched for a player that actually wants it.

I like our chances

 

[MAS RipCity]

We played scared down the stretch. For a young team, that's to be expected. But this Blazers team has played a lot of basketball together and, frankly, is a huge red flag. They flat out panicked over the last 2 minutes + overtime. No poise or composure whatsoever.

 

[Sinobas]

Did anyone get a good look on that Damian hoop they called a violation? The Blazers' broadcast didn't get a view of the light, and we heard nothing of it since.

 

[riverman]

Need Joel back soon

I think he got it off, it was easily worth a review.

It honestly didn't look good. really tough to call. But this is where the NBA is straight up FUCKED UP. You dont get that many type of shots for it to slow games down to review. You review those shots along with goaltends if it is a tough call. The NBA will always be 30th rate to other sports.

 

[BBert]

I believe Dame was 4-5 from 3 at one point -- then finished 4-10?

 

[Haakzilla]

...unfuckingbelievable!!!

/end

 

[Sinobas]

I took a couple weeks off from watching the Blazers, and decided to watch tonight and look what I get.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Need Joel back soon

So we can develop him?

 

[BlazerBeav]

Per Hold, they did review it during the timeout and the call stood. Not that it mattered, game should have been over anyway. What looked like a strength early - winning close games - is now a liability. We are a mess and are just about to the 8th seed.

Id say youre the jynx, but we pretty much lost every game the last month in a half so eh

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

No, so we can trade Kaman and his butterfingers.

 

[KingSpeed]

He was 4/4 I think. 4/10 is better than 1/10 though.

Antione Carr?

No we aren't. We are the 4 seed with an 8.5 game cushion.

It's ridiculous. We have no balls anymore. They got complacent and look what happened.

I thought Portland might get up to play a good team, and they did for 3 quarters, then they shit their pants.

 

[Blazinaway]

No, so we can trade Kaman and his butterfingers.

I cringe anytime he has the ball in his hands or its close by, shades of the Magliore nightmares and his hands of stone!

 

[KingSpeed]

If playoffs were today, we'd play Dallas and we'd have HCA. I would love that matchup.

 

[BBert]

Batum had 10 rebounds 4 assists and zero turnovers. Unfortunately he missed 5 straight threes early in the game. Then again, Dame missed five straight threes when the game was on the line.

 

[Sinobas]

I don't even care anymore. If they miss the playoffs, whatever. If they get in, whatever happens happens. But they won't get far unless playing like this.

 

[EGame]

They would too.

 

[KingSpeed]

They would too.

We beat them by 21 in Portland, holding them to 87. Then at home, they needed a miracle run to beat us in OT. Why would they want us?
