Game Thread GAME# 70: BLAZERS @ JAZZ - MAY 12, 2021 - WEDNESDAY, 6:30, ESPN & NBCSNW

[KSF-ERIC]

you're also talking about a guy who isn't 27 anymore and has shot under 30% this season in the last 4 minutes of tight games

I’m not talking last 4 minutes. I’m talking game winners. Hit one just last season.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Keep in mind that none of Utah or Phoenix want to end-up 7th to play the Lakers in the 1st round. Utah just lost to the Warriors so losing to the Blazers and Phoenix winning its game means losing their first seed. The same goes for Phoenix. I don't see the Blazers winning both games

If Knicks win tonight, I see us winning tomorrow and then resting Dame against Phoenix and Denver who we might still beat anyway. We have incredible depth at the guard position.

by the way, since 7 people voted for Melo taking the last shot in clutch time, I checked and his FG% in the clutch is 29.6%. He's averaging 0.89 points/shot

points/shot in clutch time:

Dame 1.76
RoCo 1.63
Kanter 1.38
CJ 1.22
Powell 1.15
Melo 0.89
Nurkic 0.88
Simons 0.71

That is why fans are 'fans'. Rational thought is often not part of the equation.

 

[DDolla]

Down to the wire for that guy betting his house for Blazers 42 wins

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Shit you're old.

Hell, I think I was already 45 or older when that happened, so yeh I might be kind of old.

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Blazers could sure use a really good game for this one!

 

[Almir]

Must win match. I am sure we can. Go Blazers!

@Darkwebs Game has moved to 630 pm Pacific on ESPN. Thanks

 

[Chris Craig]

Blazers need to win this game. Lakers on our ass.

 

[Chris Craig]

Couldn't have a harder end 3 games. Blazers are 0-6 against their last three opponents this season.

Our home white jerseys on the road in Utah. Ugh


There is a special place in hell for the group in Nike that pushed this jersey nonsense forward.

League/Teams decide. Nike just designs and makes em.

Yeah, I was breifly dating a chick that helped design them and she said it is all pushed by the team, who for some god forsaken reason LOVE the grey spurs jerseys we wear. I don't get it either.

@THE HCP LOVES the grey unis!

@THE HCP LOVES the grey unis!

And the Lakers, which makes your opinion irrelevant.

Welp, if the Jazz, Nuggets and Clips play their starters, it will be a nice litmus test to see if we have actually turned things around, or if we're just pretending and are about to get smashed in the playoffs.

How long Jazz are w/o Mitchell an Conley?

last game mitchell played was april 16, so almost a month since hes been out and will not play until playoffs

last game conley played was april 27 and i dont know when hes coming back

 

[Sean.ivity]

Keep telling people, I believe it's because Dames a Raider fan. Same goes with the Brown jerseys and CJ being a Browns fan.

Interesting insight. Our alternates are generally decent. The ones this year are abhorrent. Brown/gray especially

Is it still on NBCSNW too?

We don’t play Clips. At least not until playoffs.

 

[DDolla]

Mavs and Lakers win and Utah blows out the Blazers…. ugh!

 

[Darkwebs]

Is it still on NBCSNW too?

Yes, it's on both ESPN and NBCSNW

The Pewter wouldn't be so bad if it had some red with the name also.

 

[Strenuus]

The first of 7 real tests. Now the season starts.

 

[Strenuus]

Lol bogad

 

[Strenuus]

0 for 4 to start for the blazers.
