Game Thread GAME# 52: JAZZ @ BLAZERS - JANUARY 30, 2019 - WEDNESDAY, 7:30 PM, ESPN & NBCSNW

Did they announce the whole field already? Last I saw they had only announced 5 players so Bertrans and Harris could still be in it.

That would be cool. I would certainly like to see Bertrans in there.

I like the TNT broadcasts better than ESPN or Comcast.

To me OUR Boyz are the best. ESPN licks every other teams nut sack when they face the Blazers, and then once in a while, throw in some nice little compliment toward the Blazers. TNT is just as bad. Reggie Miller brings down the great Kevin Harlan, with all his So Cal love, and affinity for everything mainstream. "NO HE DID'NT", talk about the quality of the team & franchise in PDX. Calabro & Hurd get better and better. I hated the Sorry Sonics too, but you have to get over that about Kevin. Plus Brooke is head and shoulders better than the National sideline guppy.

Not taking the bait this time. Welcome to my ignore list. First and only person on it. Aren't you special

The 'ignore' button would save a lot of the teenagerish types arguments that seem to be the soup of the day here on an all too frequent basis.

 

[Bruno_Sabino]

If we get into the asg with 35+ wins would be perfect

 

[stampedehero]

I wish Seth luck...he'll have a great time in his hometown with Dame and Steph there..it was a good move to invite him….winning these things is sort of like getting a stuffed toy at the county fair though..allstar weekend is all about the after parties behind the scenes...partying with Shaq, Snoop Dog and Drake not to mention their entourage'....NBA players get star struck just like fans do

Unfortunately, they don't get invites to @rivermans crib.

Just updated mine. Feel better already

 

[kjironman1]

Had to get away from the Davis thread. I'm gonna just let that play out.
Lets hope the Blazers are indeed enjoying a short break and are healing up.

 

[kjironman1]

There is a game tonight! Finally!

Go Blazers!
Kjironman is a fan!!!

 

[swish3]

If we get into the asg with 35+ wins would be perfect

Blazers at 37-20 by the All Star Game would be perfect! Let's go for it!

 

[BlazerBeav]

This is a problem.

 

[riverman]

Casey has a tweet on the homepage of the team that says Nurk is questionable with a sore knee...not sure if anyone has mentioned it here yet..I posted it on the trade deadline thread as well

 

[riverman]

This is a problem.

thanks..I don't have a twitter account or know how to link that

 

[BlazerBeav]

Really, really want to win this game, so I'm going to need that knee to be good by game time.

 

[riverman]

I'd hope at least he could play the first and fourth quarters and if needed sit out the 2nd and 3rd

blazers --> big man --> knee soreness.....not something you want to mess with

biofreeze!!!

 

[Bruno_Sabino]

We have a lot of days off. He needs to play

 

[riverman]

Of all the opposition radio broadcasts I think the Jazz have great radio guys...when I had league pass and Wheels broadcast was blacked out I didn't mind listening to their guys...they seem to respect the opposition in a broadcast

 

[LayneStaley]

Nurk was the reason we beat them last time, we need him tonight. I’ll be disappointed if he doesn’t atleast give it a try.

 

[tykendo]

The Blazers having Nurk is imperative for them to win. For the Blazers to beat the Jazz without Nurk would take a 60+ point game from Dame.

you never know. All it takes is for some random player, other than Dame, to have a huge game. Or Utah could just shoot like crap

when the Blazers beat Utah in the last game, Ingles and Korver combined for 4-15 shooting and 0-8 on three's. That's the kind of fluke that happens in just about every NBA game. Something similar could happen tonight. Gobert could be in foul trouble all night and Mtichell could have a 3-22 night

Could happen, and you or I could win the Lotto too.

[tlongII]

If Nurk’s knee is sore you rest him. Not doing so would be irresponsible.

 

[joeBlazers]

How do we trash these jazz tonight? limit CJ shots attempts.

it would be much better if it was me

CJ just had a Triple Double. Probably not the best timing to try and trash the guy.

And yet, why haven't we heard about this until now? He's been playing great lately.
