Game Thread GAME# 51: BULLS @ BLAZERS - JANUARY 31, 2018 - WEDNESDAY, 7:00 PM (PST), NBCSNW

I mean... 50 points on 25 shots in the NBA is impressive no matter which NBA team it was against. Dude barely played more than 2 quarters.

Agreed. 50 points on only 25 shots has only been done 21 times in the NBA since 1963. Now 22 time including CJ.



I don't care who the competition is, that's impressive.

 

[ripcityboy]

Blazer media guy was fired? What, for that tiff with Stephen A Smith?

You know what I noticed about those? Double-digit FTA, every single one.

CJ had 8. First time ever 50 pts on 25 or fewer shots and fewer than 10 FTA. HISTORY!!

Good guess.

I would’ve given him a raise.

 

[ripcityboy]

They are saying it's for the Durant re-tweet. Really? I thought the whole point of social media was to raise the coolness factor. If that's the reason then that's really poor form.

What?? That was the greatest tweet ever.

 

[ripcityboy]

Got no idea, man. Can't imagine it would be that. If it's the Stephen A Smith thing, I can see that. But not for a tweet that innocent.

Company man right here, pushing that company line

ok...?

That Nick Anderson one is very impressive - 50 points on 25 shots coming off of the bench. Only guy on that list who wasn't starting.

Whats this about?

 

[42N8Bounce]

Nice ESPN Highlights of CJ -



"Ridiculously good game."

 

[Darkwebs]

Can you believe this was our 8th straight home victory?!? Remember our home woes to begin the season? Now it's more like "home whoa's!"

 

[Darkwebs]

 

[ripcityboy]

Whats this about?

I don't know much about it. But he called Smith out on Twitter. Got a lot of positive feedback and Smith as usual, was butt hurt about it. No idea on what was actually posted, but it's been talked about for a while now.

 

[Strenuus]

I think I need to see this durant re-tweet.

 

[theprunetang]

At least this new jersey got off to a good start.

 

[Shaboid]

For the record, I wore my McCollum jersey tonight while watching the game.

 

[jlprk]

Is this the same Blazer twitter account which rebelliously ridiculed Olshey's trading for cash considerations? Can someone please show that tweet? It was funny and got national coverage. Most team twitter accounts follow the company line.

This outrage deserves a separate thread.

 

[Lukee]

I fall asleep. Fuck fuck fuck. I need to watch a replay.

 

[Mr. Robot]

Nurk is a good player and could get way better but my god he’s a pussy

tell that in his face... hed break you in half

 

[Strenuus]

tell that in his face... hed break you in half

He'd flop the moment I tapped his shoulder to tell him something like this.

 

[Mr. Robot]

on a serious note, what kind of injury this is... how long hell be out

 

[Almir]

Nice win, let's extend the run. Hope Nurk will not miss many games.

Great night for CJ, congratulations boy!

 

[tlongII]

on a serious note, what kind of injury this is... how long hell be out

My guess is Nurk might miss 1 or 2 games. He'll be okay.

You've got to make your freethrows.

IIRC, only 8FTs as well. Weirdly, though, that's his 2nd-highest total FT all year (had 14 during his 34pt game against PHI

 

[CupWizier]

what an outstanding game by CJ as well as the rest of the team for taking care of business like it should have been.
