[Labinot41]

This is exactly why nobody belives in the Blazers in the Playoffs(except for us fans maybe)

 

[Jade Falcon]

Oh great, Turnover is in.....

 

[Chris Craig]

And here comes Turner...shit

 

[KingSpeed]

Evan Turner to the rescue

 

[EGame]

have chances but no one wants to step up

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Wow these second units look like were watching summer league...

 

[Labinot41]

Btw when was the last time zach has hit a 3?

Why is this game indicative of well we'll play in playoffs? What about the fact that we've won 6 of 8 on the road? Why isn't THAT indicative of how we'll play in the playoffs?

 

[Chris Craig]

Seems like its been a while

 

[KingSpeed]

Btw when was the last time zach has hit a 3?

a few games ago

ZCO

 

[KingSpeed]

Great D in the second quarter. They've only scored 4 in the first 3:15.

 

[Chris Craig]

Damn Randle has 21 already

Because we have no one who can stop julius fucking randle??? What do you expect if we play Paul George/Russell Westbrook or James Harden??

 

[Strenuus]

ZCO

Damn. I wish I was watching this game with you. We still need to find a road game to have a viewing party again (maybe in the playoffs?)

I expect us to defend them well.

sure

 

[KingSpeed]

TERRIFIC second quarter defense

 

[Chris Craig]

Playing Collins next to Kanter is compensating pretty well for Enes's defensive deficits

 

[KingSpeed]

Kanter taking over

 

[KingSpeed]

Great block

 

[HailBlazers]

Calabro is an Idiot!! Two awesome defensive plays by Collins in a row and he says nothing.

 

[Chris Craig]

Darius Nobody for 3

 

[Jade Falcon]

Zach having a good game. I like it.

 

[KingSpeed]

Darius Nobody for 3

He's an NBA player. He can hit shots.

Now this is a stretch. When we beat great teams is that why people do believe in us? Or for you, are you that pessimistic that the great games are all flukes and the struggles are all real?

 

[BonesJones]

He's an NBA player. He can hit shots.

Oh really?! The Blazers are playing against NBA players?!

 

[andalusian]

Zach has the speed and length to.give randle some trouble

 

[KingSpeed]

Thank you!!! This what I've been saying all year!! When we beat Warriors, no one says "this is why we will be going to the NBA Finals."

Now if only we could compensate for the starters terrible defense right now.
