[SlyPokerDog]

Hopefully we can make Kingspeed as miserable about the team as we are.

 

[Strenuus]

Fuck these refs.

330 pages post in, and I believe this is the first "fuck these refs" message...

I wonder if that's the longest post count before said message in a game thread?

 

[KingSpeed]

Go BLAZErs

 

[Strenuus]

Go BLAZErs

Wait... is this an ad for pot smoking?

GO BLAZE!

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

They just said 1-10 on TNT. Your stat makes more sense.

I think the TNT stat was trailed by 5 or more games.

Apparently that's a really big deal to some. I don't get it.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

This has been a good fucking game. I thought we were going to get stomped.

 

[LuckyShot]

Our starting front court only has one less foul than their entire team.

 

[julius]

That was an awesome possession.

 

[andalusian]

This possession reminds us that we miss et

 

[BlayZa]

jesus, that possession was woeful

the dame trap
the harkless dribble
the aminu shot creation.

ouch

 

[Nikolokolus]

Our starting front court only has one less foul than their entire team.

Maybe they should stop fouling so much?

 

[BlayZa]

i mean , CMON CJ, DUNK IT U LIL HOBBIT!

 

[LuckyShot]

With Ed, Moe, and Aminu, we have lots of hustle on the floor.

 

[BonesJones]

Do-It-All-Dame needs to chill the fuck out.

yes, more of that assistance goodness

He did and this offense has been horrible.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Fuck we need ET in games like this. a 3rd ball handler

 

[BonesJones]

See how bad this offense is when Lillard isn't in control?

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Bad time to start running all of our 25 second plays.

 

[BlayZa]

holllllllllllllllllllllllllly fuck. call a time out.

Terry, call a play or someting

 

[tester551]

We're doing awesome. Close loss is the goal

 

[Scalma]

Lillard first team all defense.

 

[BonesJones]

holllllllllllllllllllllllllly fuck. call a time out.

Terry, call a play or someting

He did. I heard him yell "Rat ball".

 

[Jade Falcon]

This has been an ugly defensive game. Just ugly all around.

 

[Pinwheel1]

I would prefer he showed a little emotion with the refs. The offensive foul on Crabbe's drive to the basket was right in from of him.....and he showed no emotion from what I could see.

 

[HailBlazers]

An All Star Weekend commercial with Dame in it, Hmmmmm.

 

[LuckyShot]

This team doesn't complain much. Dame is the most demonstrative, but I feel it just takes him out of his game. I'm not sure what I want them to do. If they complain, they'll just get more technicals and the refs won't change what they're doing. During the playoffs it just gets worse. They just need to play and coach through it.

 

[VenomXL]

Four point play. Nice....

 

[BonesJones]

6-point swing lol.

Typical late-game play from Portland.

Not clutch.

 

[Jade Falcon]

aaaaaand here comes the collapse.

 

[BlayZa]

miss 2 free throws
foul on the 3 play

we are cursed.
