Game Thread GAME# 6: GRIZZLIES @ BLAZERS - NOVEMBER 5, 2015 - THURSDAY, 7:30 PM (PST), TNT

[Sinobas]

Lillard pulling the guys to the court to do a postgame speech. What a leader. Aldridge would have just exited the arena.

And flown to the next game by himself

 

[magnifier661]

Anybody else want to see this team in the playoffs? Bring em on! Sweep the Spurs!

I just want to give LMA nightmares

 

[PCmor7]

I know it's awfully early, but that looked a lot like a statement performance, and the last couple of minutes of the third quarter were the exclamation point. Pretty impressive.

 

[Trackjack]

Just over solid game after we got our legs back under us.

 

[Jade Falcon]

Kaman is such a useless fucker. Why the fuck is he still here?

 

[Chris Craig]

We were better on the second game of the back to back damn

 

[EGame]

Ok it's been fun guys. Take care and GO BLAZERS!

 

[rasheedfan2005]

Kaman is such a useless fucker. Why the fuck is he still here?

the way he helped motivate that guys that play im more than happy having him keep the bench warm and being a mentor

 

[PDXFonz]

Kaman looks like the Monstars stole all his talent this summer. Wait what talent was left.

Bro Kaman is an invaluable piece for us.

 

[dviss1]

He should be passing instead of shooting because that's what the great white point guards did back when fire was created.

Burn MarAzul!

 

[B-Roy]

Love this team. Well coached young athletic teams are always fun to watch.

 

[Scalma]

Kaman was like a dad trying to impress his kids with skills he picked up at the park in 1974.

 

[Sinobas]

Damian's 3pt shooting is up to 41% on the year

Seriously? Huh. Alright...

 

[H.C.]

Time to blow it up Memphis.

To be honest with you I sort of have to agree, Memphis has looked old all season even in their wins.
Where as last year they proved Kingspeed wrong, when he said they'd never make it out of the first round of the playoffs again. Instead they took a 2-1 lead against the dubs even with Allen/Conley less than 100%...
(possibly even less than 50% who knows a hammy and facial fracture isn't something that you can shoot up and you'll be fine)
This year they look pretty old and slow. Maybe they'll find their mojo and turn it on halfway through the season again... But I don't know. The last time Memphis started so slow they had a new head coach trying to turn them into a running team, which failed horribly... But they did turn it around. I just don't really see that happening this time. They just look old.

 

[rasheedfan2005]

the poll isnt fair i have 4 on the list tied for 1

 

[santeesioux]

First place in the division.

 

[Eastoff]

Time to blow it up Memphis.

What can we pick off from them...

 

[PCmor7]

Twenty-nine assists. And no one player with more than five.

 

[Scalma]

Seriously? Huh. Alright...

Tbh he is. He's like an extra big man coach. Plumlee looks better than he did in Brooklyn. Leonard started his improvement when Kaman was brought in. I don't think it's a coincidence.

 

[Sinobas]

Bring on the Spurs!

If I was Memphis, I would completely blow it up. I'd trade Conley, Gasol, and Randolph. They could probably still get something good for those guys. Conley is a really solid point guard and Gasol is one of the best centers in the game. Randolph could be a nice addition to a playoff team like OKC or Toronto.

 

[blue9]

Damn nice game! Everyone played well (up until garbage time).

 

[rasheedfan2005]

Twenty-nine assists. And no one player with more than five.

they're even selfless with the selfless stats

 

[Natebishop3]

What can we pick off from them...

Nothing honestly. We don't need Conley. We don't want Randolph. Gasol is too old.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

What can we pick off from them...

Conley would look great backing up CJ and Dame.

I'm at the point where I don't want to lose any of our current roster. I want to see what they can do, and instead try to hoard picks.

Courtney Lee to sit his ass on the bench and not kill us.

Phoenix is already on the phone with Memphis...
