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

[Jade Falcon]

Jesus! Fuck these turnovers!

 

[DaLincolnJones]

man you have to love Christian James..

 

[LuckyShot]

Need to instill a no dribble rule for Aminu

I think he should just not be allowed to change direction more than once. That's when he really gets in trouble.

 

[LuckyShot]

Nurk going to get a 3rd foul.

 

[DaLincolnJones]

WTF is that yellow shit on his head?

 

[LuckyShot]

Nobody loves the Nurkic addition more than Harkless.

 

[ripcityboy]

I love Nurkic. He feels like a breath of fresh air. We just need to get all the players the restimate of the leaguests dont want.

 

[DaLincolnJones]

Nobody loves the Nurkic addition more than Harkless.

naw Bro, I do..he makes this team watchable

 

[LuckyShot]

Aminu seems to thrive coming off the bench.

 

[B-Roy]

Harkless is owning.

 

[MightyMouseOps1]

Schroeder looks like he's playing for the good guys.

 

[Trackjack]

We already got 14 assist this half we are sharing the rock today good to see.

 

[Blazinaway]

naw Bro, I do..he makes this team watchable

Nobody loves the Nurkic addition more than Harkless.

he's re-energized this team and Meyers is sitting and Vonleh getting more minutes = nirvana

 

[BrianFromWA]

super nitpick, but Nurk really needs to add a bank shot to his game. I've seen a bunch of little one-handed floaters that he tries close and out-of-flow, and they generally roll off the rim to the shooting side. I feel like a bank shot would add to the make %.

 

[ripcityboy]

How did Dax Sheppard land Kristen Bell? I'm still trying to figure that out. He looks like an extra from Quest For Fire.

Yeah sometimes he rushes the shot when he doesn't have to and he loses a bit of touch. If he's going to shoot it like that, the backboard could certainly help him.

 

[LuckyShot]

Good patience by Nurk to bother that Howard dunk attempt.

 

[BrianFromWA]

there's a lot of "let 'em play" going on right now, which I think helps ATL more than us.

Dax is a funny guy

 

[ripcityboy]

We are going to keep Crabbe this offseason, right? We don't need to trade him for cap reasons, right? (Just say "right")

 

[ripcityboy]

Dax is a funny guy

Go away, Baitin!

 

[BrianFromWA]

Whoever was talking the other day about Noah powering up on some short shots with new confidence, I liked the observation. Wish he was doing it on that missed dunk-ish.

 

[riverman]

Good game...lotta heart from these guys...playing like they want the win

Leonard has to be the first to go.

 

[BrianFromWA]

someone wipe off the ball...we just fumbled it 4 times in a row.

 

[Trackjack]

I like Vonleh aggressiveness at both ends.

 

[ripcityboy]

Leonard has to be the first to go.

Try to find a scenario where we dump him and not have it involve blackmail?

 

[BrianFromWA]

Leonard has to be the first to go.

technically, I think Ezeli was the first to go...

 

[LuckyShot]

Refs are letting this get rough.

 

[BrianFromWA]

"What's the f***ing difference down there?"

Thanks for the FT, coach.
