Do none of you watch NBA games? Leads don't mean much.

 

[Mediocre Man]

And you may ask yourself...

"Why are the Blazers shooting around 30 per cent?"

And you may ask yourself....

"Where is all this team growth?"

And as the days go by....

Same as it ever was

 

[Rhal]

So down 14, shooting barely 30% from 3 and 33% overall with 9 turnovers. Pelicans are shooting 51% overall. If we can start hitting a few 3's and stop turning the ball over like we are playing hot potato we can get back into this in the third, if we are still down double digits heading into the 4th we might start seeing tired legs and shooting much like the first half again.

 

[Jade Falcon]

He's not fast enough to match up with Boogie or Brow....not his game...Leonard can keep pace with them

I agree.

I think what we're trying to do here is play them on their level by playing Half Court ball. That's not our strength against a team like NO, who excels at that.

Well, Blazer leads sure don't.

 

[Trackjack]

We need that last shot by CJ. The game still in striking distant. Well last couple game we look like crab in the 2nd half and great in the 1st. Mabe it the reversal tonight.

This is not my beautiful team.

This is not my beautiful game

 

[riverman]

Lot of game left....turnovers are killing us

True we lost a 21 point lead the other night at home

 

[LuckyShot]

I'm going to choose to believe they got tired of blowing giant leads in the second half so tonight they decided to take it easy in the first half and then they will play hard the second half.

 

[riverman]

They didn't score 60....there's still hope!

 

[Mediocre Man]

Also, if the team had a kangaroo court for shit, they need to fine Davis for not throwing the ball 3/4 court at the end of the first quarter. You never know

 

[Trackjack]

The 1st 5 minutes in the 3rd will till if we have a chance. We have to come out strong in those 5 minutes.

 

[riverman]

Crabbe shot 14.3% ...somebody give him a crew cut on the sidelines..worst shooting so far on the team

Wooooooosh...

Letting the guards go by, Nurkic getting angry now.

 

[riverman]

Wooooooosh...

A dog with a lisp.....it's Wooooooooooof

 

[Jade Falcon]

They didn't score 60....there's still hope!

Oh look who we have here....Kingspeed Junior, lol.

 

[riverman]

it's an exhausting job but I have to do it

 

[riverman]

GO BLAZERS!!!! Get Boogie ejected...halftime plan

 

[riverman]

I'm worried about Stren....this game may have caused his head to explode

 

[Darkwebs]

maybe it's time to vote on the poll now...

Good thing I put a "Change Your Vote" option.

 

[Trackjack]

Vonleh is working this boards tonight with 6. That part of his game he starting to shine.

 

[ripcityboy]

The team has to be motivated not to lose to the Jay Leno of bird species. Come on guys have some heart.

 

[riverman]

Good thing I put a "Change Your Vote" option.

I'm sticking with Nurk and a first....Boogie will melt down regularly...he's an ejection waiting to happen...that's the film to study..how to push Boogie over the edge and get him to go full mental straight jacket

 

[Mediocre Man]

I think we're doing ok defensively? That's what our coach thinks?

Fuck me
