Game Thread GAME# 54: CELTICS @ BLAZERS - FEBRUARY 9, 2017 - THURSDAY, 7:30 PM (PST), TNT

[Nikolokolus]

Looks like another stellar defensive effort ...

 

[riverman]

We had a 17 point lead. Thrilled?

you play 4 qtrs...we're in it

 

[KingSpeed]

chief has 26 pts....when's the last time we said that?

He had 30 in a playoff win last year. His reg season career high is 28 last March.

 

[Jade Falcon]

We had a 17 point lead. Thrilled?

This. I'm not thrilled about any of this, and neither should any of you be.

If this team played 4 quarters, wouldn't be 23-30.

 

[KingSpeed]

Come on Chief ugh

 

[Pinwheel1]

Aminu was not fouled?

 

[julius]

And just like that, he proves why his nickname is "pass to a guard"

 

[LuckyShot]

Aminu with great defense, then turns it right back over.

 

[KingSpeed]

Fuck fuck

 

[BlazerBeav]

Oh look, Aminu dribbling leads to a turnover. Shocking.

 

[LuckyShot]

Aminu was not fouled?

Well, yeah, but this is the NBA and he plays for Portland.

 

[riverman]

Smart has 5 frickin' steals in this game...the dude is a great defender

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Aminu definitely got fouled.

 

[Jade Falcon]

And let's also remember: 6 points missed in FT shooting. Wouldn't be surprised if it's more than that, but that was my last count.

 

[craigehlo]

Jaylen Brown. Scrub of the game award.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Terry needs another rebounder in there

 

[KingSpeed]

Let's go!!! Get CJ some shots!

 

[BlazerBeav]

Looks like we're about to blow another home game that we led comfortably in, and against a team missing starters. Stotts must go.

 

[craigehlo]

Remember when the fans in the RG cheered loud enough you didn't even notice opposing fans?

 

[LuckyShot]

Game.

 

[Jade Falcon]

This game's over. Another epic Stotts choke job. Can we fire this clown already?

 

[craigehlo]

Hero ball for the loss!

 

[julius]

I thought once the player was upi n the air, you can't come over?

 

[KingSpeed]

Damn. Running out of time. Go to CJ.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Even when they play good D, they always fail to get the fucking rebound or lose ball

 

[LuckyShot]

Player didn't get set until Dame was airborne. What's the ruling on that? I thought he had to be established already.

 

[A$AP Meyers]

Bum Lillard hasn't been clutch in years. Why has CJ not touched the ball down the stretch. Ya let's let Aminu shoot a 3 and Lillard jack up shit.

 

[Five Second Violation]

Our inconsistent defense isn't a thing, Czar. The defense this year has been very consistent.
