Game Thread GAME# 68: BLAZERS @ HAWKS - MARCH 18, 2017 - SATURDAY, 3:00 PM (PST), CSNNW

I'm talking about that, along with assist to turnover ratio and scoring efficiency.

What are you talking about? There's no substance to your rebuttal.

Were also not one of the best teams in the league now. We've faced a cupcake schedule and the only good win we have since acquiring him is against the Spurs.

The biggest impact he's brought to this team is rebounding and defense. But I can't ignore the fact that we have on ORTG of 96 when he shoots, and while he has nice passes, he's also averaging 4 turnovers a game, which is pretty damn bad as well.

You ignore the bad, and get mad and call out those who ignore the good. Then I bring up a very valid point and you reply with "Dear God"?

Haha, wherever dude.

Im with you on most of your post, but keep in mind that he's 22. Also keep in mind he's played 13 games for us and shot at least 50% in 8 of them. When he first got here he was lughts out. I posted in one of the threads a while back that a certain delivery guy I know, said teams will be playing him differently, and the team and he would have to adjust. They haven't yet. Running a 7' 280 lb center down the key in traffic while trying to catch a bounce pass doesn't make for a high percentage look.

Howard was not impressive. Portland lucked out again not getting him. Nurk is so much better for this team.

This is the only game I can remember where almost everyone played good (not counting the scrubs). They got good contributions from so many instead of it just being CJ and Dame carrying the team.

Yes, it's nice to see a game flow like this -

Wire-to-wire with good separation throughout.

It was a really close game at the beginning though.

Nurk is new...you're going to turn the ball over trying to pass to guys you've just started playing with...some of his turnovers are offensive foul calls and some of those are questionable...ET turned it over trying to find out where his teammates wanted the ball when he first got here. .Nurk is a game changer...a needle mover. I'll give him the ball at the end of any game over Mason.

I just watched the game. Haven't read the thread yet. What the fuck?? CJ and Dame play defense now? Harkless and Vonleh are awesome? Our effort is off the charts. We're piling up impressive road wins: Boston, Dallas, San Antonio, and now Atlanta. I hoped for 3 wins on this trip and we got em. A win in Miami would be icing on the cake. Dame playing at All NBA level again. I'm very very happy with the team but we have to keep it up. There is little room for error. Go Rockets tomorrow!

Denver lost!!!!

Denver lost!!!!

Yep, now they go to Houston, come home to play Cavs, then play 6/7 on the road. It's time to make our move!
