Game Thread Game #7 - BLAZERS @ 76ERS - NOVEMBER 1, 2021 - MONDAY; 4:00PM, ROOT SPORTS

[B-Roy]

We are lucky to just be down 1. Dame is trying to shoot himself out of a slump and I just don't think that's the way to go.

 

[Mr. Robot]

dame lillard 2-11
cj mccollum 5-14

nurk 0-0
covington 0-0

yeah, it must be enjoyable to play in this offense and we obviously should expect nurk & roco to give their best effort even theyre being ignored on offense

 

[Tince]

I was told Norm did nothing for this team. Weird.

Who said that?

 

[Blazinaway]

I know some of guys might get piss but right now the only person that Dame thinking about is Dame very selfish on the offense right now. CJ is just CJ he hasn't seen a shot that he didn't like. Lucky Powell and Simons having decent games.

Agree I said on another thread he needs to "reign it in" and let it come to him and not force the issue - and yep he continues to force it

 

[Strenuus]

dame lillard 2-11
cj mccollum 5-14

nurk 0-0
covington 0-0

yeah, it must be enjoyable to play in this offense

Man I love making HUGE generalizations based on one half! How fun!

Be better.

 

[noknobs]

Dame forcing shots and hitting none, bench not playing enough. I thought I watched this yesterday.

 

[B-Roy]

Dame 2/11
CJ 5/14
Norm 5/6
Ant 3/4
Nance 2/3
Snell 2/2

Maybe Dame and CJ need to stop chucking.

 

[Strenuus]

Who said that?

Look at the main page.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Nance, Simons and Snell 7 for 9. Unfortunately the nine shots is 5 less than McCollum alone took.

 

[riverman]

We should win this game, if we don't it's ridiculous

not to me...it'll be another game closer to having Dame out of his slump....

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Finding myself just wishing any Dame three would just fall. This is cringe worthy. How long can this last?

i dont have to be better, you have to be realistic

you dont have to actually, but you should be

 

[DDolla]

So sad for Dame

 

[wizenheimer]

personally, I can't see much difference between the Stotts offense and the Billups offense

and while Dame is shooting like he has an incurable eye disease, CJ isn't much better. In the last 2.5 games he has 51 points on 56 shots. The two of them should not have shot 25 of Portland's 41 shots in the first half. Billups needs to restrain those two guys

 

[blazerfan11]

We're not even down by two posessions..........

Exactly. We're down. You lose if you're down by even one point.

some posters in here obviously disagree

It's 6.5 games. You can't compare. Moving on now.

Accountability. These last two games more than ever we've just devolved into Stottsfense. Doesn't look as good when Dame isn't hitting off the dribble threes.

 

[Strenuus]

Exactly. We're down. You lose if you're down by even one point.

Is the game over?

Good. Your argument failed the first time and this time.

Moving on now to sensible arguments.

 

[AldoTrapani]

I’ll tell you what guys when we rebuild soon Simons one less piece to worry about

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Just came in and looked at the score and thought - hey, that's not too bad, going against Joel Embiid.

Then I saw Embiid wasn't playing, and suddenly we suck again.

 

[Aussie Blazer!]

I'd love to see some positive body language or at least some sort of expression from the guys, particularly Nurk

 

[wizenheimer]

Dame 2/11
CJ 5/14
Norm 5/6
Ant 3/4
Nance 2/3
Snell 2/2

no doubt. Dame has been horrible, but in the last 2.5 games CJ has 51 points on 56 shots. In the last 3.5 games, he has 76 points on 77 shots

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Nah Offense under Terry Stotts was never this bad.

 

[Fairly-Hard]

You don't win games if you cannot put the ball in the hoop.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

He hasn't trademarked it, you know. It's Chauncefense now.

 

[calvin natt]

Not that I’d know because I don’t follow every single game of every single team but…..I don’t recall a “superstar” being this bad for this long. They all have slumps but this is just weird. There’s no way they’d play him if he was injured. Strange

 

[Aussie Blazer!]

On a side note, is Kate Scott a cloneling of Doris Burke? They look very similar

 

[Rastapopoulos]

I guess Dame REALLY doesn't want to be traded to the 76ers?

 

[Mr. Robot]

i want them to lose so badly, fuckers dont deserve to win playing like this

im with phila in the 2nd half, dame & cj can go fuck themselves

billups too, he allows them to do this shit (so much for accountability)
