Game Thread GAME# 53: BLAZERS @ CELTICS - FEBRUARY 4, 2018 - SUNDAY, 9:00 AM (PST), NBCSNW

[BlazerBeav]

Without Dame we are the Hawks.

 

[illmatic99]

Those shots that Rozier and Horford hit were seriously ridiculous.

What a heartbreaker. Fuck Boston and their bullshit good luck.

 

[DaLincolnJones]

come on man aminu played great defense on that last possession. Nothing could have been done. Too many late game errors cost us mainly that of nurkic.

yeah true enough...does not help that Dame shot 25

 

[EGame]

Name a Blazer who could have defended that last shot any better.

Meyers leonard

 

[kjironman1]

Chief had him with good coverage. Right in his face. Horford made a shot. Simple as that. i got a bigger problem with losing a 16 point lead to be in that position in the first place. By the way Nurk was set on that offensive foul. IMO that is when the game was lost.

 

[DDolla]

That was a tough shot. That’s another close game L for the Blazers

 

[BrianFromWA]

Well, I'm pretty sure that if we'd give up Chief, Ed, Nurk and draft picks for DJ we would've won.

 

[Mr. Robot]

This is prime example of why I want to trade Nurk for DeAndre... Blazers were up 6, Nurk blows layup again that would have put us up 8... then Celts come down hit a three and entire game changes. I like Nurk and think he will be very good in time, but Dame/CJ need to win now

and POR would win with DeAndre Jordan

okay

 

[e_blazer]

Ah, the life of the Washington Generals is wonderful. No stress. You always know how the game will end.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Nurk makes that god damn, straight line layup we got up 8 and win this game. Fuck.

 

[Cippy91]

come on man aminu played great defense on that last possession. Nothing could have been done. Too many late game errors cost us mainly that of nurkic.

You mean all those fouls that damn near convinced me to trade him for deandre Jordan? Yeah. Dame and cj were off. Should of never lost to this depleted Boston team though. It’s embarrassing

 

[DaLincolnJones]

well, guys, have a great day, I am out

 

[VenomXL]

Credit where credit is due. The Celtics made a ton of TOUGH shots down the stretch. That's a good team. I really wish we could see them with a healthy Hayward in the playoffs this season.

Great game for Mo. So weird that he goes from barely playing to having a game like that.

 

[Cippy91]

Name a Blazer who could have defended that last shot any better.

I honestly don’t think that was defended that well. He got so much space on that fade away. So much space. Horford was 8 for 12. You need a bigger physical body on him for that last play.

 

[DDolla]

Not sure about tomorrow...looks like a three game losing streak

 

[EGame]

oh well maybe this means the patriots will get fucked hard today. Doubt it since the refs will be with them. Enjoy the rest of the day folks

 

[Cippy91]

Those shots that Rozier and Horford hit were seriously ridiculous.

What a heartbreaker. Fuck Boston and their bullshit good luck.

Tatum, Brown, and rozier hit the most insane shots I ever saw in that last stretch. The horford one was a good look. Like I said he got space o that fade away check the replay. Aminu on him was a terrible mistake

 

[KingSpeed]

Collins useless. Should've tried Meyers. Despite empty stat line, Pat was actually good.

 

[stampedehero]

Winning in the fourth by a finger nail and losing by one sets me off.

 

[Cippy91]

Not sure about tomorrow...looks like a three game losing streak

Nurk can’t handle Drummond. Teams with good bigs always kill us. On a back to back. Yeah I’m not feeling sure either. The Toronto loss was expected, they are playing insanely good right now and have been. This should of been a win.

 

[Cippy91]

Yeah also, about that Evan turner guy....

 

[Jon]

Anyone wanna bet that harkless wont play next game (garbage minutes dont count), but evan turner will still start?

 

[Shaboid]

I was hoping for OT until Dame got fouled. Then I had a feeling this would happen. I really don't want to start these Super Bowl shenanigans and would have rather just watched something I actually give a shit about.

 

[SIeepwalker]

What's the point of replays when you're not gonna change the call even with clear evidence ?

 

[KingSpeed]

That was as tough as the Griffin buzzer beater. Oh well. We can win the next 3.

 

[tykendo]

Agree. Chief played it pretty well, but Horford hit the clutch shot.

 

[KingSpeed]

Without Dame we are the Hawks.

Without Dame we are 5-2

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Name a Blazer who could have defended that last shot any better.

Nurk. Height and length. Horford would have to shoot over that.

 

[tykendo]

anyone know how to change your name to nickname.

 

[illmatic99]

Nurk. Height and length. Horford would have to shoot over that.

He had fouled out
