Game Thread GAME# 65: BLAZERS @ HAWKS - MAY 3, 2021 - MONDAY, 5:00, NBCSNW

[VenomXL]

This doesn’t look good. Need to lock in quickly especially on defense.

 

[Chris Craig]

This is probably a loss

 

[BonesJones]

This game might be perfect for those who haven't been able to piss and moan as much lately. Another road, underdog win by the Blazers might be the only thing that could spoil their fun.

Why are you always so concerned about other people? Sell some of that real estate.

 

[Cugel]

Awful defense, terrible box out. Spice it up Terry, these 8 are gassed from last night.

 

[Jayblaze]

This game shows why stotts can't be the blazers coach next year

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Lucky to only be down 6.
Nurk hasn't shown up.

And he still hasn't shown up. Hawks announcers called his last shot attempt "lackadaisical" and then he was slow on D next play.

 

[VenomXL]

These dudes are hitting everything.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Man ATL is a really damn good team I had no idea

God damn Dame!

It's almost a trap game, cept that Atlantas record is good.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Finally getting a hand in his face!

 

[BonesJones]

The Blazers would be up 15 if they knew how to position themselves one pass away.

I care about other people, is that a bad thing?

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

The Blazers would be up 15 if they knew how to position themselves one pass away.

And I don't think it is all coaching; some guys have a knack for seeing one pass ahead and some don't.

 

[BonesJones]

I care about other people, is that a bad thing?

Not in a positive way.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

This game shows why stotts can't be the blazers coach next year

If this game shows why Stotts can't be the Blazers coach next year, does the win over Boston show why Stotts CAN be the Blazers coach next year?

 

[Tince]

Not in a positive way.

Thats good... I'm happy for those people who have been bottling up their anger for over a week.

This game is getting close though, so hopefully that doesn't ruin things for anyone.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

RHJ in for Nurk

 

[crandc]

Could someone please guard Gslinari?

 

[BonesJones]

Ive never seen a team make so many threes in one game simply because the other team is playing too far off while defending one pass away.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

As Hawk announcer said, after Gallo made another three: "You gotta know your shooters and obviously Portland don't".

 

[BonesJones]

And I don't think it is all coaching; some guys have a knack for seeing one pass ahead and some don't.

Huh? I have a hard time thinking someone could make the NBA if they were so unaware that they couldn't tell when they're one pass away.

Stotts should be telling these guys they need to play tighter when they're one pass away. Either he isn't doing so, or his players aren't listening.

 

[VenomXL]

Good lord these threes.

 

[VenomXL]

Nice missed goaltending.

 

[BlazerBeav]

God damn refs.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Not a goaltend, Lillard.

 

[BigGameDamian]

RHJ in for Nurk

LoL......What a joke.

 

[VenomXL]

Getting nothing from Ant tonight.

 

[VenomXL]

Not a goaltend, Lillard.

Huh?
