Game Thread GAME# 55: BLAZERS @ MAVERICKS - FEBRUARY 10, 2019 - SUNDAY, 12:00 PM, NBCSNW

[VenomXL]

Beat the Jazz, lose to the Heat. Beat the Spurs, lose to the Mavs. Good teams get the wins they’re supposed to get. Mediocre teams are inconsistent and don’t.

 

[DDolla]

Glad we have a lot of home games, 9-10 on the road.... yikes!

 

[illmatic99]

This weekend has been all comebacks. Houston and Boston both suffered bad losses as well.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Hood

He was in there at the end.

 

[Chris Craig]

Yikers. Dame took on 5 Mavs there when he didn't need to. Very Kobe-esque.

Cause he is still going for the call over the shot. He needs to stop being a dumb ass and realize he is not going to get it. Especially with Scott Foster officiating

Then we beat OKC.... hahaha I’m dreaming Big

 

[Labinot41]

Imagine if Aminu and Harkless could shoot

 

[A$AP Meyers]

This team is just flat out not very good and there is one man to thank for that. His name rhymes with Seal Boucher

 

[Scalma]

Aminu usually makes the crunch time threes Layman has been missing.

The fuck are you talking about he missed one three the whole game

 

[KingSpeed]

Dallas is 20-8 at home. We were supposed to win?

 

[James lamphear]

Out 61 shots the starter shot Dame and CJ took 40 of them. The reason we will never go anywhere due to these 2 guards. Yes Dame got hot in the 3rd but the rest game he didn't shoot well. CJ does want CJ does he going to shoot no matter how bad he is shooting. They deserve this lost.

 

[ripcityboy]

They got like twice as many foul calls as we did. And then you add those two calls at the end. Totally decide the game. But Terry's coaching put them in that position any way.

 

[Chris Craig]

Well that ends the streak

 

[KingSpeed]

The fuck are you talking about he missed one three the whole game

That one miss was in crunch time when Dallas was making its move. He hits that shot, we win. Same thing in the Miami loss. Missed the big 3s.

There you go.

I'm so glad that our GM drafted guys who can contribute immediately, instead of a bunch of projects......

OH WAIT......

 

[OneSport3]

Who was supposed to play? Layman was in for the 4th. Hood missed a couple open looks in the fourth. Did you want curry in instead of CJ????

Curry is actually a much, much defender than CJ and actually passes the ball. So yes, Curry would have been better than CJ.

 

[Sheldon Shape]

Refs were bad but coaching was worse. We became stagnant on offense again.

There's no reason in hell Nurk should have only ended up with 11 shots when he made 9 of them. We needed to milk that match-up and we didn't. That's low IQ basketball. Same with Layman and Hood. They will need more shots to be effective.

 

[Chris Craig]

Nurkic was fouled and they called a jump ball, and the ref threw it towards Luka so the Mavs could get it. No call in Dame getting fouled at the basket. How can we win if the other team is allowed to beat the shit out of us.

 

[VenomXL]

Dallas is 20-8 at home. We were supposed to win?

I understand they’re good at home and the Blazers are mediocre to bad on the road. If they have post season aspirations they need to beat the teams below them in the standings. Period.

Should have been Nurk all game, But Stotts is a fucking idiot

 

[rotary111]

You are dead wrong here.

I watched again. The defender was straight up. He was moving forward a little though. Unfortunately that's generally a no call if the defenders hands are straight up like they were. I see what you're saying now though.

 

[OneSport3]

Dallas is 20-8 at home. We were supposed to win?

YES, this is isn't the same team. They traded away their entire team that went 20-8!!!

 

[trailblazer18]

Curry is actually a much, much defender than CJ and actually passes the ball. So yes, Curry would have been better than CJ.

He had his run at the start of the fourth and couldn't do anything. The whole team contributed to the 10min no bucket streak.

It’s the same problem it’s always been. Stotts only trusts two players offensively. We’re gonna get smoked in the playoffs again because of it.

 

[Chris Craig]

Yes, they aren't the same team from before the trade deadline

Apparently you didn't watch the game then, because Collins was called for a foul on the same play TWICE.

 

[James lamphear]

Due to we can't win on the road very often and more probably we loss these next 2. We could be in trouble this 2nd part of this season. Hell we might take a big floor and miss the playoffs.

 

[theprunetang]

He also brought his hand down at the end and raked Dame's arm as he was flinging up that wild shot.

 

[KingSpeed]

I understand they’re good at home and the Blazers are mediocre to bad on the road. If they have post season aspirations they need to beat the teams below them in the standings. Period.

And why are they below us in the standings? Because we’re awesome. Can’t win em all. Let’s get the game tomorrow.

 

[BonesJones]

This game gave me a mental breakdown smfh.
