Shut up man

just sayin. reminds me of raptor game

 

[DameLill379]

They have to pick it up like right now or this is going to get ugly quick.

 

[tykendo]

Stale start, and poor shooting. Dame as off as I've seen him all year on his shot, but he's, well, DAME! It's not the Wolve's defense, it's just brick shooting. Need bench to give some good minutes tonight. Sometimes you need the bench to pick up the starters. Go Blazers!!

 

[KingSpeed]

Yes. I prefer they win.

We usually win on TNT.

 

[Jade Falcon]

The part that worries me most is I believe Crawford made all his shots that quarter.

He always burns us. I actually didn't know he was on Minnesota....I let out a groan when I saw him.

 

[ripcityboy]

Teams with fast athletics bigs just destroy us. They can shadow both our guards and use their wingspan to block them out. I don't know why the Dame/CJ partnership is so important to Olshey. With a tall defensive wirey shooter we might have a different look. But you hear them mention breaking up the duo and Olshey has a fit.

 

[kingslayer]

Nice effort by Ed. Gonna need more of that.

 

[julius]

remember when Damian and CJ both scored 50 points in under 30 minutes?

I'n not even sure they'll combine for 50 points tonight.

 

[illmatic99]

Turner turns INTO a double team

sigh

 

[LuckyShot]

Could we play worse?

 

[The Professional Fan]

This has a bad feeling. They're gonna hit some shots and we'll go down 20 quick

Ugh

 

[AFully22]

Holy shit Dame and CJ look like they’ve been day drinking. Not good.

 

[ripcityboy]

Crawford as he does.

 

[TBpup]

Just no ball movement. Everything is 1-on-1 and when you're not shooting well, that is a recipe for disaster.

 

[The Professional Fan]

The hardest bricks I’ve ever seen

 

[julius]

I saw this game already. It was against Utah.

 

[The Professional Fan]

Just no ball movement. Everything is 1-on-1 and when you're not shooting well, that is a recipe for disaster.

Fact fact fact fact

 

[illmatic99]

So many no pass possessions

 

[LuckyShot]

Crawford can eat a whole bag of dicks.

 

[rotary111]

We should be down 20 the way We're playing.

 

[ripcityboy]

Man. Even without Butler they are pretty damn good.

 

[SportsAndWhine]

Never too late to start tanking!

 

[BrianFromWA]

I have a feeling that fat ugly motherfucker who coaches Minnesota scouted Dame and CJ pretty good when he was at the last Blazers home game two days ago.

Dame is blowing ass right now. Holy fuck, that may have been the worst performance in a quarter that I've seen from him in the 6 years he's been here.

Dame has 3 games of 1-13 or worse. He's had a few of these before.

 

[KingSpeed]

I'm liking alley oop Turner

 

[LuckyShot]

Dunks are about all we can make.

 

[SportsAndWhine]

Man. Even without Butler they are pretty damn good.

Phoenix would be up 10 against this Blazers effort.

 

[julius]

Fun fact: They're only 3 losses from the lotto!

 

[BrianFromWA]

Evan Turner turned into Sergio Rodriguez last night.

 

[The Professional Fan]

Woah

 

[illmatic99]

not our night
