Game Thread GAME# 6: BLAZERS @ MAVERICKS - NOVEMBER 4, 2016 - FRIDAY, 5:30 (PDT), CSNNW

Seriously man.... with the way people were freaking out while we had the lead....

I tend to stay out of the game threads while watching the game.

Too ridiculous and too distracting. But they are funny to read after the game is over.

I've gotten little reaction but again....CJ is a natural 6 man to me....a shooter...guy who picks up the scoring off the bench...this is my biggest wish for the current roster...I'd start Crabbe in his place..he's the next Jason Terry or Manu Ginobli....unleash the beast! Let him play with Napier as the pt guard

I am not sure how much that would accomplish. I mean isn't that his role now? He comes off the bench with the 2nd unit. The only difference is that he has already played....and theoretically a little more warmed up. I get that the 2nd unit is underperforming right now, but I am not sure whether CJ starting or not really makes a difference for that particular purpose.

Exactly. It's not like starting CJ means that he and Lillard end up on the bench at the same time.. One of them is always on the floor.

I'm all in for statistically based debate but it's absurd to come in here after every game so far this year and see you guys screaming to blow it up already. I've been here a long time and a majority of you are much smarter than that.

It's a classic forum meltdown bro. Everyone has to play their part.

For real though, I've been more frustrated with the runs we've given up this year than anything else last year. It just shouldn't happen and it's like a switch is flipped.

I'm not saying we should blow it up or anything, but I do get pessimistic in game threads when we start shitting the bed. Some people stay optimistic, some don't. People handle things differently. Can't really fault them too much.

As some of you know, I don't participate in the game threads, till AFTER the game. I always enjoy the freak shows that they are. Last night did I see somebody drop some N Bombs in here?

Sadyvra. He's a backward fellow.

 

[Orion Bailey]

Wow. Just caught myself up too. Lmao. And again reminded myself of why I watch the games in peace... well relative peace.. lol

We did give up a lead, but it sure looked like we were still trying to focused and give maximum effort, when in times past, we looked way more lost. Dallas also made some good shots in that run.

I still think this was the best 48 minutes of play ive seen fro mthis team this season and if you look at the games from an eyeball perspective, It sure looks like they are slowly but surely getting more comfortable. NOt even close to being content like comfortable, but, not near as lost as compared to moments in previous games.
Sometime,s you just get beat on a play and it has nothing to do with lack of focus or effort.

Blazers played extremely well coming off of a very heart breaking type of loss and facing another team on the road hungry for their first win.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Wait, you're telling me 49 points on 41 shots in a win is bad?

I got blasted by the Westbrook fanboys because I dared to criticize his "historic" performance when he scored 51 on 44 shots.

Apparently, when on guy does it he's an MVP candidate, but when a group of players do it, they suck.

I don't see anything in that quote that talks about "bad"; he was apparently just showing how impressive Lillard's game was in comparison to an average group of starters; in comparison to four players, and he was only one player.
