Game Thread GAME# 7: BLAZERS @ WARRIORS - NOVEMBER 4, 2019 - MONDAY, 7:30 PM, NBATV & NBCSNW

Can we just post now that if the Blazers win then the coach did things the right way. Of course if they lose then the blame is on the coach. Pretty sure that will be the consensus.

lol, the consensus is when they win, It's because of Dame. When they lose it's because of Stotts and CJ.

Damn it!!! I thought I was the only psychic one around here!

 

[Dougnsalem]

1-1 road trip record. We win tomorrow but not sure against the Clippers.

Dude, you already said the Clippers were winning it all; and you were outta here. What's the holdup???

That's the consensus because it's usually true.

See posts like this prove you're not paying attention. For the millionth time, it's not about winning or losing one game.

 

[THE HCP]

Coach’s get WAY too much blame and WAY too much credit.

 

[riverman]

Go Blazers! I think we should win this one! I think we should use Moses now and dust off Pau for limited minutes

 

[Labinot41]

Guys please stop talking about Moses and the other 2 way guy, they better not play any meaningful minute for the Blazers this year, if they play we're in deep deep trouble, those guys are G-League players and not NBA players

We have 4 injured big. Does this count as deep trouble ?

 

[SIeepwalker]

Rodney Hood (knee/thigh contusion): QUESTIONABLE
Hassan Whiteside (left knee): QUESTIONABLE
Zach Collins (dislocated left shoulder): OUT
Pau Gasol (left foot rehab): OUT
Jusuf Nurkic (left leg): OUT
Skal Labissiere (in coach doghouse): QUESTIONABLE

Sorry. I will do better next time.

See it's post like this that prove you are not paying attention. It was a joke laden with sarcasm. Hoops you have lost your ability to have fun with this. You used to actually catch humor and we all enjoyed your responses. Oh and remember. Just because you make a video doesn't mean everyone has watched it. So paying attention for some might be much much different than others.
Hope you enjoy the game.

Kjironman is a fan!!!

Yeah they do.

I really hope they keep that roster spot open. Seems like Whiteside and Hood could be back fairly quick. Then Continue to use Skal and hope Gasol comes back fairly soon. This team will be fine. Weather the storm so to speak.

So as far as the question above goes i have a combination of three answers. Maybe bring in Moses for a bit if need be? But definitely play Skal more minutes because this is just the experience he needs. But do not over react here. These are not huge injuries to Whiteside and Hood so at this point leave that roster spot open for trade deadline.

KJ, it has nothing to do with any videos or previous forums. You brought an argument from another thread into this one. It's called baiting, not sarcasm. Be better.

 

[TBpup]

Might be the worst Warriors line-up to start a game in 10 years. Ugh....that is brutal!

Hopefully the Blazers don't take it lightly they need W's!

I guess this is where i go "Sigh"....

 

[B-Roy]

I found a pair of upper bowl tickets for 25 bucks. Center too. Guess all the bandwagoners are gone.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

That's the consensus because it's usually true.

I don't really agree. Team game, you win and lose as a team. Yeah, stars make a huge difference but look at GS at the start of the year they were getting ran out of the gym with Curry and Green out there and Kerr on the bench because their team sucked. It's so easy to dissect a bad substitution or a bad sequence at the end of the game and say that cost them the entire game, but it's ignoring about 90% of the game. Stotts calls a good play to get Dame a shot in rhythm and it's all "Dame", stotts calls a defensive set Dame is late and it's all Stotts. Heck yeah, they should've switched but Dame's reaction was terrible on that play too, he was way behind the play, to begin with. I'm not blaming Dame for the loss, just saying it is a team sport and they all share blame in it.

You know I'm not just ignoring 90% of the game though.

I think when we start going into blaming an entire loss or win on one person it's kind of ignoring a lot of things. Maybe ignoring isn't the right word but it is definitely not taking the whole thing in totality in my opinion.

Interesting update on CBS injury report


Portland

It seems their is a group in this forum that has selected certain individuals that they are quick to blame for a loss, but seldom ever give those same people credit for a win. Kind of sad. Maybe they should pay closer attention to Lillard when he says they win as a team and they lose as a team. It's part of what makes this team so enjoyable for most of us.

 

[DDolla]

the battle of injured teams, I would play Stotts and Kerr for this game.

 

[Binx]

Amazingly, despite all our injuries, we have a good chance of winning this game.

 

[Darkwebs]

Skal Labissiere (in coach doghouse): QUESTIONABLE

Lol, I wonder if Jake, the previous tenant of that doghouse, left any of his belongings.

I'm not sure how accurate this is. They seem to have a timeline on Zach when Zach hasn't even had his surgery yet.

Although something that is interesting is that Pau traveled to SF with the team while Nurk did not.

Did anybody in here mention Bazemore missing TWO free throws in crunch time? That had a little something to do with this outcome for sure.

Pau and Nurk were both with us on the last trip. Wouldn’t read to much into who travels and who doesn’t. If they have rehab or appointments set up for the guys, they’ll stay at home.

Yeah, I'm not expecting Pau to play anytime soon. I just thought it was interesting that Pau came this time and Nurk didn't. Nice info though.
