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

[Jade Falcon]

lol. we suck against physical teams.

There's a couple of them; Memphis is one of them. I can't think of the other. And yep: we've lost to both of them, just like we're losing this one.

I'll be surprised if we pull off a win here.

We need a proper, physical Big on this team. Not a skinny 6-11 Center with no muscle mass, and sure as fuck not a 7-1 SG who has no game other than a mediocre 3.

 

[blue9]

Does anyone think TOR's roster is that much better than ours? I don't see a huge talent disparity between the two teams.

 

[Jon]

These refs are fucking horrible, meyers is fucking horrible, guards need to pick it up and plumlee doesnt need to shoot past 7 feet.

 

[BonesJones]

Lillard doesn't play better mad...

 

[Tunchi]

Well, like others have said: we're playing a real team now. This isn't the Lakers or some team with a 15-30 something record.

It's going to be ugly these next few weeks.. That's why I was never worried about our lottery pick

 

[KingSpeed]

If we're a good team, we'll get past this tonight. No excuses.

We're a good team win or lose tonight. We've won 9 of our last 11. Doesn't matter how crappy the teams are.

Another new member here to hate on Meyers. Sweet.

 

[KingSpeed]

Almost having a triple double makes you starter quality?

As a center? Yes.

We destroyed Memphis by 19 a few months ago.

 

[Dan Marang]

Plumlee is not nearly as good as some Portland fans think he is. He's a high energy bench type guy

ding ding ding ding--- Winner! And there's nothing wrong with that. Every team needs one.

Are you this negative in every other aspect of your life? It must suck

 

[kingslayer]

Aminu makes me nervous everytime he brings the ball up. And there is a clear reason why.

And then he makes a 3. Whew.

 

[blue9]

Fuck Aminu, man.

 

[BonesJones]

Aminu stop please

 

[blue9]

Aminu: one step forward, one step back. [switch the order as it fits the occasion]

I'm watching league pass and saw it before he shot. Spoiler alert haha

 

[HailBlazers]

WTF is this $hit

 

[kingslayer]

Can't give Portland too much momentum refs!

 

[Sinobas]

Someone, please please beat these refs up after the game.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Punch babies annoyed right now

 

[BonesJones]

Why does the league hate us

 

[KingSpeed]

Plumlee is the reason our offense has been so good this year. And he's great on D. We won that game against OKC where dame hit all the threes because of Plumlee's D

 

[-Ace-]

Defense is indeed picking up! Oh, except for leaving Scola wide open.

 

[Tunchi]

I swear scola loves to play us

 

[Darkwebs]

Hendo has been so good for us lately

 

[Strenuus]

We're a good team win or lose tonight. We've won 9 of our last 11. Doesn't matter how crappy the teams are.

Yes it does.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Raptors are shooting 63 percent from three and 42 percent from the field.

 

[HailBlazers]

How much is Scola making? He's certainly better than Meyers.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

What a horrible call on Plum

 

[Strenuus]

No one can say you don't try.
