Waiting 5 days is brutal.

Well earned rest after the schedule the last few weeks

 

[Chris Craig]

This is insane

Swanigan keeps chucking them up there and missing. Sure isn’t afraid to shoot though.

He's so damn bad.

 

[Chris Craig]

And they are healthy

 

[BonesJones]

Baldwin is not a good passer.

 

[LayneStaley]

Biggie sucks

 

[BonesJones]

If Collins played that type of defense he just went against, theyd call him for the foul.

 

[Jade Falcon]

How was Biggie ever looked at as an NBA player?

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Yeah but pretty soon we get another bullshit back to back on the road playing Utah and then OKC. Fucked up schedule.

We've played Utah 4 times already..must be someone else..it's Dallas

 

[riverman]

Nice to blow out a good team with your starting center out....great team effort tonight! 32 wins!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

So we outscored Utah in only 2 of the 4 quarters so really it was a tie game.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Totally disagree. Meyers played well last year also. This year he hasn’t just played better. He has played a bunch better.

Sure in his extremely small sample size last year he played better, and this year he's been good too. The fact is your original post was clearly trying to use this one game to call out anyone who's criticized ML, it's plain as day when you say all you geniuses that want to get rid of ML that you're trying to use this game to prove some point.

 

[crandc]

Dame two boards shy of triple double but can hardly complain about tonight

 

[riverman]

How was Biggie ever looked at as an NBA player?

you know how many people said that about Jake Layman and Meyers Leonard? Biggie is a second year guy

 

[wizenheimer]

We could meet this team in the playoffs..this was an important win for the tie breaker

yeah, the tiebreaker will now be division records, IIRC

 

[Propagandist]

That win felt good.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

@BonesJones Hey bro, wtf do you put together as an analysis of this game?

Sit back with a beer while you show skewers roasting over a bbq?

 

[Chris Craig]

Blazers selling Meyers big tonight

 

[LayneStaley]

If that’s how we play after rest I’m feelin real sorry for Dwade and the Heat

 

[oldmangrouch]

Great win, but what a weird series!

2 blow-out wins for them - one nail-biter for us - a blow-out for us.

 

[BonesJones]

Some people need to learn the meaning of "no chance".

We won by 27 without having a chance. Smh.

 

[Jade Falcon]

"The Other Side" will be updated soon.

 

[ripcityboy]

Meyers acting earned a day without criticism. That's rare for him. Usually he's guilty of just being alive. Way to go Nards!

 

[LuckyShot]

Utah has only lost twice in it's last 11 games. Both against us. Ha. Fuck them.

Just show 2 minutes of a basketball on fire while someone hits it with a hammer.

 

[TBpup]

Jake and Meyers both showed glimpses in their first year. In fact, Jake was nearly a 50/40/90 rookie and Jake had his outburst against the Warriors. I haven't seen anything close to that from Biggie.

 

[oldmangrouch]

I'm going to take a wild guess and say it has something to do with his agent and free blowjobs.

 

[42N8Bounce]

Nice win for the Blazers!

The Jazz are 8-2 in their last 10 games. Guess where those 2 Ls came from.

 

[crandc]

As this is my ballet class night, I can say tonight's game was like a competition between Baryshnikov and a first year ballet student
