Game Thread GAME# 58: NUGGETS @ BLAZERS - APRIL 21, 2021 - WEDNESDAY, 7:00, NBCSNW

[BlazerBeav]

Two games in a row we lose by not being able to make shots in the last two minutes - with guys who are supposedly elite shot makers.

 

[DDolla]

We are garbage lol

 

[James lamphear]

Getting habit in loosing by 1. Dame 2-10 from the 3. Our guard offense is becoming our worst enemy and that hole getting deeper and deeper for Stotts.

 

[Chris Craig]

We had a timeout

 

[Tince]

That sucked... Norm two nights in a two with a chance to ice it.

So far, taking 2 L's to get a fresh Dame isn't looking like it was a great strategy.

 

[Chris Craig]

This team is done

 

[crandc]

Three one point losses in a week.

 

[BlazerBeav]

RoCo should've kept going to the hoop - he had it.

Stott's offensive acumen may have been greatly exaggerated

 

[brooklynballer]

Where did Dame and CJ's shot making go? We're lost without it.

Live by the iso. Die by the iso. Absolutely nothing innovative about this offense. So easy to game plan against, especially for teams like the Nuggets who’ve seen it 4x per year for the last nine seasons.

And why again did Stotts take out Ant - seconds after hits a 3???

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Either CJ or Lillard have to have an outstanding offensive game on any given night for us to win. Neither did. Little was not very effective on O or D.

 

[BoomChakaLaka]

RoCo should've kept going to the hoop - he had it.

Not a scorer mentality!

Dame, Melo and even Ant would have taken it to the hole. He had CJ for a pass too.

coaching my friends - coaching

 

[AldoTrapani]

We are garbage lol

This is good! We need that lottery pick at this point no point not to. That SA win was so unnecessary

 

[PCmor7]

Low IQ basketball. Honestly, the shots we took toward the end of that game just shows that no one on this team has a concept of situational basketball, time and score, momentum.

How about getting into the body and getting to the line? Anyone? Bueller?

 

[KSF-ERIC]

I’m feelin good after those 2 games. We didn’t get blown out and our D is much improved. Let’s go get those Grizzlies.

We only lost 2 games in that 3 game stretch. We beat Spurs.

 

[VenomXL]

Trying to decide which season was more painful. This season or last. I think it’s this year. The team on paper should be much improved and last year had superhero Dame and some fun bubble games.

 

[MickZagger]

We had a timeout

Broken plays like that coaches are notorious for not calling the timeout. It doesn’t give them a chance to setup their defense.

 

[illmatic99]

dame's 3pt shot has left him.

those 4th quarter shots were automatic earlier in the season. now he's lucky to hit rim. whatever injury he had robbed him. brutal timing

 

[PCmor7]

Nurk fouled Jokic. Nurk. Go get the rebound.

The offensive tip back when all the Nuggets had taken themselves out of the play and he was all alone was fun to watch, too.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Could’ve gone either way.

 

[illmatic99]

We had a timeout

it was the right decision to not take it.

 

[BoomChakaLaka]

Hey remember when our record was bolstered by us winning a million clutch games? (Which is historically just luck) This is what happens when that comes back.

Yup

 

[Chris Craig]

Nurkic is terrible

 

[BoomChakaLaka]

it was the right decision to not take it.

Crazy -

blow this mess up - from the very top, down.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

This team HAS been much improved. We were 35-39 last season. We are 32-26 this year. Plus we’re still playing without our starting PF. Don’t judge the team til we’re at full strength.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Crazy -

Because Powell missed a floater?

 

[illmatic99]

Nurkic is terrible

no. he's not. we kept losing leads whenever kanter came in.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Nurk 3-11, Dame 9-23 - and STILL should have won. So frustrating.
