Game Thread GAME# 69: BLAZERS @ SPURS - MARCH 17, 2016 - THURSDAY, 5:30 PM (PST), KGW & NBATV

Be the first to beat the Spurs on their homecourt and do it in convincing fashion! Go Blazers! No Mercy!

That would be really really nice to see.

 

[Draco]

Spurs have a winning record vs every NBA franchise all time...

Every team except one; the Blazers!

The series is tied 79-79

Go Blazers!

 

[Draco]

Tim Duncan has won 50 games every year of his career; for 19 seasons!

It's surprising he's never in the discussion of the best player of all time. I put him significantly ahead of Kobe Bryant.

May be in part because fans don't want to see a guy make 10 basic plays; they'd rather see 2 highlights along with 8 terrible shots even if it leads to fewer wins.

 

[Draco]

I was gonna go to this game; but tix were way more expensive than normal. Nosebleeds were going for $50 and anything average was $100+. Must be the home winning streak. I might go to the Dallas game though.

Go Blazers!

That's actually very impressive.
Plus, Tim is such a likeable guy.

This. I've got no beef with Tim, he's a great, class-act. Probably one of the best class-acts of any player of any sport ever played.

LeBitch, on the other hand...I'll be happy if he never wins a ring for his entire career. I have 3 of his shirts I'm trying to sell; I can't stand him.

Won 37 games in the strikeout shortened season. He would have won 50 easily if it was a full-season though.

 

[ripcityboy]

A win? In the words of Morrissey.... Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want!!!

 

[PHXBlazer1]

vonleh....

 

[Jade Falcon]

Not a terrible start. We're hanging with them, which is more than we did against the last team we faced.

 

[VenomXL]

Might as well just shut it down if they're going to swallow their whistles in this game.

 

[illmatic99]

Defense looks like shit. Again

 

[VenomXL]

Sick putback.

 

[Jade Falcon]

I'm convinced Ed Davis is a God.

 

[julius]

I'm convinced Ed Davis is a God.

I think you're just not used to having a big man who isn't allergic to contact.

 

[VenomXL]

I'm convinced Ed Davis is a God.

His finishing ability in traffic is really impressive.

 

[ripcityboy]

Being a Spurs fan must be incredibly easy, your team drafts well, signs any free agent it wants, has one of the all time greatest coaches, got lucky and landed one of best players ever, has an extremely competent front office...... they are kind of like Patriots fans, except they aren't jerks or cheaters.

 

[VenomXL]

Dame getting straight mugged going to the rim.

 

[Jade Falcon]

I think you're just not used to having a big man who isn't allergic to contact.

Perhaps so.

His finishing ability in traffic is really impressive.

It really is.

 

[Jade Falcon]

Earn it Harkless!

 

[Jade Falcon]

Damian is sick of your shit, and he's not gonna take it anymore.

 

[riverman]

Not a bad first qtr at all!

 

[Darkwebs]

That was a great way to close the quarter. This would be a huge win if we sustain our level of play.

 

[SIeepwalker]

Nice start !

honestly i'm sorry to say this (again) but it's refreshing not having to see Leonard play

 

[Jade Falcon]

No need to apologize, you're not the only one. The dude belongs in the D-league.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

fuckin ginobili

 

[Darkwebs]

fuckin Martin

 

[Jade Falcon]

fuckin ginobili

Guy is such a whiny asshole too.

3 fouls for Hendo. FUCK!

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Brian Roberts will be the x-factor in this win tonight

 

[VenomXL]

5 on 8 baby.
