Game Thread Game #65 - BLAZERS @ JAZZ - WEDNESDAY - MARCH 9, 2022 - 7:00 PM (PDT) ESPN

[BigGameDamian]

LoL….The Montreal Canadians/ Vancouver Canucks game is on TNT!

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Hart is first string. Elleby was a starter when we won 4th straight. How is a 5th string even possible when we can only have 15 players?

So you understand completely.

 

[BlazerRx]

If we lose by 50 does it count as 2 losses?

 

[PDXFonz]

We legitimately look like we could break some records at this point.

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Man Hart really can’t shoot

I don’t think he’s a starter on a good team?
Let’s hope I’m wrong on that.

 

[GrandpaBlaze]

ESPN headline: Blazers record-breaking game!

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Jazz are up over 40 and they still have their starters in.

 

[Labinot41]

Damn i really really want us to lose but not like this

 

[Ripcity4life77]

Over / Under 5 more Wins this season

I legit say Under and if after season is over you told me they only won like 1 or 2 more games all season -- would not surprise me AT ALL

Before all star weekend I was like this team does not know how to tank ....... fast forward a couple weeks later and they are pro's at it

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

suckingest bunch of sucks that ever sucked.

 

[twobullz]

Hart is -49 tonight. whoops -51 now. What is the record for a player in a game?

It's under for sure. I really think the over/under is 1 win.

 

[blazerkor]

Everyone just hang in there, starting on the 20th we're going to start losing games by 10-15 points instead of 30-50 but until then buckle up.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Haven’t watched a single play but saw the score. Yikes.

 

[BigGameDamian]

We have two of our starters still in the game.

 

[MickZagger]

We are trying to tank and we still only have 3 less losses than the Lakers who aren’t trying to tank and have 2 future HOF’ers.

 

[LayneStaley]

13-15 on the bench next year should be BWill, Keon, and whoever we take in the second round.

 

[OneSport3]

I’m fully on board with the tank but this is getting cringey. I don’t think I’ve seen a tank this tankey.

 

[Natebishop3]

We have had summer league teams that could beat this roster

 

[HailBlazers]

Jazz are up over 40 and they still have their starters in.

Hope the Blazers don't forget this next year.

 

[LayneStaley]

Keon shows the same kinda flashes Ant did 3 years ago.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

We have become a generational talent in tanking!

 

[OneSport3]

Keon’s jumper looking good tonight.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Cmon Blevins throw one up!

 

[LayneStaley]

We need to win the lottery, I think Jabari is gonna be a better pro than college player.

As long as we don’t draft Banchero. He’s giving me some Jabari Parker vibes.

I honestly respect it because it shows that we'll be devoted to it regardless of how "cringey" it gets. The next 4 games are against teams that don't have winning records but are close to or at .500. Then we play teams with terrible records for the following 11 games where we'll have closer losses, those are the games when learning to lose like this will pay off. If we win a bunch of games going forward then this will have been embarrassing but I don't think that's going to happen.
