Game Thread GAME# 64: BLAZERS VS CELTICS - MAY 2, 2021 - SUNDAY, 4:30, NBATV & NBCSNW

[crandc]

This is like all star game score.

 

[James lamphear]

Well it's all tied up this kind like the all star game all offense and no defense.

 

[illmatic99]

Why is DJ in the doghouse

 

[Hoopguru]

It's still unbelievable that Philadelphia traded a first rounder to Boston so they could move up to draft Fulz, leaving Tatum there for Boston. I think every casual fan in the country knew Tatum was the best guy in the draft.

Lakers passed on him too, didn't they?

 

[James lamphear]

Why is DJ in the doghouse

Good question this might be a good game to play him with his length.

 

[DDolla]

Whoever misses 5 straight in a row will lose this game

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Lakers passed on him too, didn't they?

Yes and they were so transparent about who they would draft that Boston was not reluctant to trade down.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Our old nemesis present today; three times guys cheated off three point shooters (two from corners) and left them wide open.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Gotta find a way to pull this out.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

with Kanter a minus 12, Stotts has to think seriously about playing RHJ instead.

This was obvious a minute into his play today yet our dumbass coach stuck to his robotic decisions

 

[DDolla]

Greg Anthony: “CJ averages 2 FT and don’t get to the line”. We all know he hates contact so that’s not going to improve

 

[Almir]

Shotout tonight. I am afraid of the deffense on Tatum and Brown, cause Dame, cj, Powell it is real mismatch, they can shot as they want...luckily we are hot as well, but somebody here will have black hole for few minutes and the game will be over.

Hope somehow Boston will get cold.

 

[BonesJones]

What's funny is Dame, CJ, Nurk, and Powell are all playing good right now and some people act like it's some sort of "gotcha" against those who don't this team is coached well because we're tied at halftime against a team they say is terribly coached and is suffering from injuries they've implied that are extremely hard to overcome. The logic contradicts itself.

Based on his pregame interview, Stotts is going to play Kanter because he’s playing against his former team. He wants him to do well against his former team.

This makes me think they're having a fucking tea party for halftime.

Cmon Blazers

Bullshit reasoning. Rhj didnt get a second vs BK. Or Giles in Sac. Or Jones v Miami

 

[bobf]

Stfu hurd Nurk made a great decision to kick it back out

 

[bobf]

Nurk screens fuel our whole offense

 

[BlazerBeav]

Again, I love Powell. Great addition.

 

[Sheldon Shape]

Again, I love Powell. Great addition.

So controlled too. Looks like he's rubbing off on CJ today.

 

[James lamphear]

Dame on his way to double double tonight 21/8 already I think he is realize that he has a lot people can score around him with the Powell trade.

 

[bobf]

Starters can get a small margin on the Celtics. Second unit is gonna have to not blow it. Ant neeeds to get hot for 5 minutes.

 

[bobf]

Weak D by Roco

 

[illmatic99]

Yo wtf was that foul Tatum. Dirty push in the back

 

[bobf]

Nurk with yet another D

 

[Hoopguru]

Stotts has his team playing well.

 

[bobf]

God Hurd. Footwork schmootwork. You gotta finish.

 

[Sheldon Shape]

Does it make any fucking sense to have Lillard guard Tatum? Roco should be on him all game. No question.
