Game Thread GAME# 57: JAZZ @ BLAZERS - FEBRUARY 11, 2018 - SUNDAY, 6:00 PM (PST), NBCSNW

I'd give Bill Self a call. I got a feeling he's one bad run away from getting out at Kansas.

If we went the college route I'd rather get a guy like Smart in Texas or Kevin Ollie

 

[EGame]

we should rename this team to the Portland Lillards and a band of scrubs

 

[Rhal]

Its really frustrating to watch this game but I can't think of a worst team to have your 5th game in 8 nights against. We look, and have looked, tired since halftime while the Jazz are just moving constantly everywhere and are physical as HELL and since the refs are letting them play that just adds to how tired these guys have to be.

Such a soft ass team

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

One of the saltiness most annoyed points for me this season. Doesn't help that I'm doing accounting hw right in the middle of this shitfest. It's all just a giant shitstorm.

I'm also salty.. but that's because I've drank 128 oz of water today and have been peeing every 45 minutes lol

Smart isn't leaving Texas for a while and Ollie is going through a messy divorce which is helping his coaching go in the toilet. Self is a better option.

I wanna punch Olshey now so much. We''ll have to watch this for next couple of years.

Why? Is honesty frowned upon?

No, smugness, condescending attitude and overall arrogance is frowned upon.

 

[BrianFromWA]

I'm kinda waiting for Dame to get his 30 and get pulled with 6 minutes left and down 25.

 

[Strenuus]

Calabro is done with tonight. lmao.

 

[TBpup]

It is always maddening to me that every time we are down big Stotts goes to the super small lineup. Like I get that he thinks the small lineup gives us the best chance to score, but every time they run it it never works and they always give up more than they end up scoring anyways.

This is an entirely unbalanced roster who's problems are made worse by the coach.

It's just Stott's philosophy. Don't get fast break points, run plays for 2 players on 98% of the offense so no one else gets a rhythm or confidence, and the mental toughness (outside of Dame) of a wet noodle And every big man he comes in contact with that can shoot outside of three feet ends up out on the perimeter or as soft as a roll of Charmin.

 

[BrianFromWA]

Over/under on 80 tonight?

 

[B-Roy]

So predictable. This team is sooooo predictable.

 

[GrandpaBlaze]

Can we see some new(er) blood?

Swanigan, Baldwin, Layman? Tired of all else (other than Dame)

 

[jonnyboy]

Can we get the mascot and trampoline dunk guys to play the rest of the game? This shit is just terrible.

 

[Strenuus]

Thing is, sometimes I think Dame would do better 1v5 and would probably win us more games

 

[EGame]

dame has been fouled about 10 times now. Dont get me wrong we are just flat out losing but Im tired of seeing Lillard get mauled for no calls

 

[LayneStaley]

Lol, you got all that from reading my 3 sentence reply? Have you seen all the posts in the last 10 min ripping Neil and this team? But me pointing out the obvious is smug and arrogant? Ok sounds right.

 

[illmatic99]

Adjustment coming so late

 

[H.C.]

Did everyone think we were badass because we beat the Hornets and Kings? We are an inconsistent team who will occasionally have a tight win against the teams with winning records.
Let the hate replys begin.

That's for reiterating what has been said multiple times, by multiple posters since the start of the season.
Middle of the pack team.
Thanks for your insight. It was a revelation.

Posters who play the victim on this website typically end up going away after awhile.

 

[VenomXL]

Dame still playing his ass off. Take note other Blazer players.

 

[B-Roy]

Wow, we are trapping. Is this maybe the 5th time in Stotts's tenure?

 

[BlazerBeav]

Since they are letting them clobber Dame, maybe it's time we pull him...

 

[BrianFromWA]

The refs have been done with this game for a quarter and a half now.

 

[Rhal]

Its not just Dame. The refs are fine with letting them play super physical, and since the Jazz are the team that is about twice as physical as we are tonight its favoring them a LOT.

 

[julius]

Well, that's enough of that. Time to watch something else.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

God hates the Blazers, it's the only thing I can think of... every time we get a great talent they either die from injury or are fucked by an incompetent coaching staff/front office.

He got calls the 1st quarter which is why I don’t understand the refs holding the whistles recently when he’s obviously getting fouled on a couple of these drives

How is pointing out the obvious being a victim? Some of you are really taking this Utah loss hard. I’ll try to be more PC on my opinions of this team and timing of my posts in the future.
