Game Thread GAME# 58: BLAZERS @ RAPTORS - FEBRUARY 26, 2017 - SUNDAY, 3:00 PM (PST), CSNNW

Some really risky interior passing right now. Let's hit a few 3's to open things up.

 

[julius]

I swear, watching Nurkic out there is like watching Arvydas out there. Well, he resembles him I mean.

 

[Scalma]

I swear some of these calls on Nurkic are made just because of his sheer size. First one definitely wasn't a foul.

Because he's big and white?

 

[Jade Falcon]

Not a bad start.....not liking Dame's turnovers though. He's gotta fix those.

 

[ripcityboy]

I feel like some poutine. I'm in the wrong country....

 

[BigGameDamian]

LoL Meyers

He takes a lot of risks poking at the ball after losing a rebound. He needs to chill on that because we are going to be stuck with long stretches of Meyers.

 

[julius]

Meyers looks so small out there compared to Jusef.

 

[H.C.]

Vonleh is playing some pretty decent help d. minus that last derozan layup.

 

[Cippy91]

Meyers Leonard is our backup center. That hurts my soul

 

[craigehlo]

DeRozen doesn't often pass when driving. Our defenders part like the Red Sea when he's coming down the lane to sat with their men.

 

[LuckyShot]

Meyers is a basketball moron.

 

[Cippy91]

Catch the fucking ball Leonard. My god

 

[julius]

Meyers Leonard is our backup center. That hurts my soul

It hurts my soul so much that my unborn children already hate him.

 

[Scalma]

Vonleh is working the boards.

 

[Cippy91]

Meyers should not be an NBA player​

 

[B-Roy]

Meyers is so fucking useless.

 

[H.C.]

3 more years of Nards. god...

 

[Cippy91]

It hurts my soul so much that my unborn children already hate him.

It's okay they will never know him because his ass will hopefully be gone this summer

 

[BigGameDamian]

Meyers is a basketball moron.

Instead of looking so hard for our future PF maybe we should focus more on a future backup center.

 

[Cippy91]

3 more years of Nards. god...

This is the worst case scenario, yes

 

[Jade Falcon]

Meyers should not be an NBA player​

He'd be cut by China.

 

[LuckyShot]

Liking our defense on pick and rolls so far.

 

[Jade Falcon]

lol Meyers. It's like Dr. Jekyl/Mr. Hyde out there.

 

[H.C.]

Can tell Portland had real good defensive practices... Even Nards is playing well on that end.
Damn Lillard whats with the turnovers. Can live with the missed shots, making teammates better. Chill on the turnovers though.

 

[B-Roy]

Lillard's passing....he's trying to make passes with a 10% chance of succeeding.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Lillard is losing the ball a lot.

 

[H.C.]

Pretty good matador defense there Crabbe.
Nice to see you're one of the few who didn't pick up the effort on the defensive end for this game.

 

[BigGameDamian]

I'd rather see Ed Davis at backup center than Meyers.
