Game Thread GAME# 69: ROCKETS @ BLAZERS - MAY 10, 2021 - MONDAY, 7:00, NBCSNW

Dame, CJ & Powell reminds me of Run TMC
Hardaway, Richmond & Mullins.

Not to be nitpicky, but there was only one Chris Mullin. (Kermit Washington *always* referred to him as "chris mullins" which was a huge pet peeve of mine back then).

Horrendously out of control drive by Dame. Wont beat tough teams in the playoffs with that kind of decision making.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Our defense is trash. We can't even shake the Rockets they keep coming back.

 

[julius]

Simons seems to struggle at home.

 

[bobf]

Luck box

 

[VenomXL]

This game is fucking annoying. I’m annoyed.

 

[BlazerBeav]

One guy with two banked threes. Stop messing around.

 

[James lamphear]

We have gave up over 30 ponts each quarter and that was 38 point quarter pretty pathetic.

 

[julius]

I'm not actually surprise at this game. The Blazers barely beat Houston at the start of the season and lost to them in their 2nd game against them.

 

[OneSport3]

A game that should of allowed Dame to rest has turned into a game where he’ll play close to 40 minutes to pull this one out.

Way to have your team focused and prepared. It’s not like it’s a crucial end of the season stretch or anything.

 

[julius]

The ESPN gamecast referred to that shot by Brook as a 33 foot 3 point shot.

They might want to calibrate their measuring tape.

 

[BlazerBeav]

See, right there, Jones is just four feet off his man in the corner and gives him an open three because he was ball watching.

 

[julius]

Now I'm at the point where I hope they lose with the way they're playing defense. This is bullshit.

 

[twobullz]

19 assists in the first half, only 5 so far in the second. The ball is not moving like it was to start the game.

 

[VenomXL]

God damn Norm!

 

[KSF-ERIC]

All our 3 starting guards might score 30. Has that ever happened in the NBA?

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Jazz only beat these guys by 8.

 

[James lamphear]

We are rebounding and pushing the ball nice to see.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

This game is fun

 

[wizenheimer]

CJ has made 2 really nice passes to kanter and jones this Q

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Has a team ever had three 30 point scorers in one game? In regulation?

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Now I'm at the point where I hope they lose with the way they're playing defense. This is bullshit.

Ugh. We’re playing without our starting PF and we’re gonna win. Some people just can’t be happy. Rooting for losses?

 

[julius]

I'm sure it's happened. The game where Detroit and Denver played and scored over 370 points combined, had John Long, Kelly Tripucka and Isaih Thomas score over 30 each.

yes, quite a few https://www.interbasket.net/news/bi...YoJob3tj4kC62KC1mfM__0m52ZQ7aX08WaE0NqOLO8IAw

Actually, Robert is playing. Not sure what game you're watching.

All on the same team? In regulation?

 

[KSF-ERIC]

yes, quite a few https://www.interbasket.net/news/bi...YoJob3tj4kC62KC1mfM__0m52ZQ7aX08WaE0NqOLO8IAw

Nice. Rider, Grant, and Sabonis did it but it was 4OT.

 

[julius]

I brain farted on the over time part. (They were all on the same team)

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Collins is our starting PF. You don’t lose your spot due to injury. Robert valiantly filling in til Zach returns.

Just stop. He's not the starting PF anymore. He's been out for almost 2 complete seasons.
