Game Thread GAME# 51: RAPTORS @ BLAZERS - FEBRUARY 4, 2016 - THURSDAY, 7:00 PM (PST), KGW

[Strenuus]

Hopefully Meyers gets traded.

 

[Strenuus]

It's just not a good look when a decrepit Scola is more mobile than Meyers.

Meyers sucks, so there's that.

 

[BonesJones]

Especially if Stotts thinks Meyers can match-up with the smaller, more mobile Scola. That's just not gonna work. Because he's NOT A PF.

Hopefully they start Crabbe at the 3 and Aminu at the 4.

I'd rather they start Harkless so Stotts can keep the rotations basically the same as if Noah were there.

Harkless at the 4? He'll get abused

Harkless at the 4? He'll get abused

No. Harkless at the 3, Aminu at the 4, with Aminu sliding down to the 3 when Davis comes in after about 7 minutes or so. I think Harkless could handle Derozan for a few minutes, and I have no doubt that Aminu can handle Scola.

Or Crabbe at the 3, give him half of Vonlehs minutes, and give Leonard the other half. I think we're actually trying to win this game, not tank.

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

I'm going to throw out a curve ball;

Pat Connaughton in the starting line up

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Hopefully they start Crabbe at the 3 and Aminu at the 4.

I would prefer this myself however. You slow down Derozan and Scola. Both who are factors in the Raptors offense.

HCP see if you can get some Earth Wind And Fire in your highlight package tonight; Maurice White died today.

Paul Allen is going to be bummed.

That's too bad. I remember them playing either before a Blazers game or during halftime a few years ago, it was a great little mini-show.

They did an opening night introduction... Was it 2008-09?

This is going to be an ugly, smash-mouth game. Go Blazers!

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Some would say that Dwane Casey and The Toronto Raptors will be Lillard's toughest test for the "FU Tour" and while that maybe true record wise, it won't be for Lillard tonight. Tonight is the night Lillard gets his triple double. Lowry is an East All-Star. Damian was not chosen to be an All-Star this year. Lillard is going to want to beat Lowry stats wise tonight.

Lillards game line tonight:31/11/10

AND it's Game 3 of the "BlazerAce FU Sprained Ankle Tour." Once again, the game thread will be my home for this one. I hope the two strangers enjoy my seats for me.

 

[-Ace-]

This will be the best game of our homestand, I can feel it.

LMFAO!

It's the biggest challenge of this homestand. It's gonna go down to the final minutes. I'm pumped!

What do those grey shirts that they're wearing say?

Black History Month

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Dame goes for 40 night

 

[-Ace-]

It would be something to hold Toronto under 100 tonight.

 

[Jade Falcon]

Black History Month

Ah, okay, thank you. I was afraid they were trying to pull some kind of PC "BlackLivesMatter" nonsense or something. But I'm cool with celebrating BHM.

Time's have changed
Our kids are getting worse
They won't obey their parents
They just want to fart and curse

Should we blame the government?
Or blame society?
Or should we blame the images on TV?

No, blame Canada, blame Canada
With all their beady little eyes
And flappin' heads so full of lies

Blame Canada, blame Canada
We need to form a full assault
It's Canada's fault

Don't blame me for my son Stan
He saw the darn cartoon
And now he's off to join the Klan

And my boy Eric once
Had my picture on his shelf
But now when I see him he tells me to fuck myself

Well, blame Canada, blame Canada
It seems that everything's gone wrong
Since Canada came along

Blame Canada, blame Canada
They're not even a real country anyway

My son could've been a doctor or a lawyer rich and true
Instead he burned up like a piggy on a barbecue

Should we blame the matches?
Should we blame the fire?
Or the doctors who allowed him to expire?
Heck no

Blame Canada, blame Canada
With all their hockey hullabaloo
And that bitch Anne Murray too
Blame Canada, shame on Canada

The smut we must cut, the trash we must smash
Laughter and fun must all be undone
We must blame them and cause a fuss
Before someone thinks of blaming us

Pretty comparable backcourt! Henderson needs another solid game off of the bench and we need to grab the defensive boards big time.

 

[-Ace-]

It will be a weird day when Mark Mason no longer does our intros.

 

[Darkwebs]

So Harkless gets the start!
