Game Thread GAME# 53: HEAT @ BLAZERS - FEBRUARY 5, 2019 - TUESDAY, 7:30 PM, TNT

[oldmangrouch]

You can't blame the Blazers - this is the third game of a back-to-back-to-back at the end of a long road trip.

Wait...it isn't? Then I got nothing to explain this.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Turner so bad.

 

[BonesJones]

Meyers reaching with no chance at getting the ball.

 

[TBpup]

They missed Jake for the dunk....AGAIN. This is partially on Stotts because they need to know to look for that.

 

[Jade Falcon]

Turner's Turnovers, Collins being a pussy, Stotts no coaching......typical National Broadcast game for Portland.

 

[LayneStaley]

Collins needs to get better around the rim ASAP

 

[BonesJones]

Get the guards back in PLEASE

 

[craigehlo]

Turner OUT please

 

[illmatic99]

ET can gtfo, don't think i hate anyone more on this current squad

 

[BonesJones]

Turner SUCKS

 

[B-Roy]

Why the fuck is Turner playing so much?

 

[Boise Blazer]

Put in Trent and see if he is still hot if the bench is gonna play like this

 

[Scalma]

Soup juggler and Richardson are taking it at Layman.

Not really. You can get scored on and still play good defense.

 

[DDolla]

The players are playing lousy on National TV so they won’t get traded.

 

[oldmangrouch]

They missed Jake for the dunk....AGAIN. This is partially on Stotts because they need to know to look for that.

It's getting to the point you have to think it is intentional.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Maybe they're just rusty?

 

[TBpup]

Why is Turner playing? If Stotts gives Hood's minutes to Layman instead of Turner, the 'Fire Stotts' thread is getting bumped.

 

[Scalma]

If this is turners last game in Portland I’ll start believing in god.

 

[wizenheimer]

OMG this format with 3 announcers talking about random shit during the game is fucking irritating!
They don't shut up. Guess I have to mute for 2 hours

it's like thanksgiving at my house only no matter how hard I try I can't mute my inlaws

 

[LuckyShot]

I love layman's movement off the ball. If he becomes an average defender he could be a legit starting SF, he's already getting pretty close.

All he's got to do to be an average defender is stop jumping as high as he can every time he sees a pump fake. The scouting report is obviously out on him. Everyone pump fakes him and drives right by.

 

[Chris Craig]

The Blazers are allowing the Heat to dictate the tempo of the game. Feels like a L

 

[Scalma]

Why the fuck is Turner playing so much?

17 million reasons.

 

[BonesJones]

The bench is 6 for 17. Shouldve let Hood play because it's not like were running any sort of competent offensive system...

 

[LayneStaley]

ET can gtfo, don't think i hate anyone more on this current squad

And people were thinking teams might take him for a mid 20s pick lol

 

[Propagandist]

I want an all new bench.

 

[DDolla]

Neil’s phone ringing right now and teams are calling to cancel all trade offers.

 

[Boise Blazer]

The bench is 6 for 17. Shouldve let Hood play because it's not like were running any sort of competent offensive system...

Was it announced why he wasn't playing?

 

[Scalma]

Is Casey tryna get traded too

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Turner SUCKS

Let's hope that by some miracle this is his last game with Blazers.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

If this is turners last game in Portland I’ll start believing in god.

We wouldn’t be playing him if it was. We’d be like, “he’s good, trust us”.
