Game Thread GAME# 71: BLAZERS @ MAVERICKS - MARCH 20, 2016 - SUNDAY, 1:00 PM (PST), CSNNW

[Darkwebs]

Where was the foul there? Harkless hardly touched him

 

[Darkwebs]

That annoying insect Barea

 

[Chris Craig]

Why are you back in the game Wes? We don't want to watch you die dude.

He hasn't touched the ball since he's come back in

 

[ripcityboy]

Jeez--Barea is a natty little fly isn't he?

 

[illmatic99]

Jeez, CJ hammered.

 

[theprunetang]

Who had the whiskey and cough medicine again? I could use that.

 

[Rhal]

3-9 from FT. While a decent stat from 3 not good from the FT line.

 

[Sinobas]

Portland should be killing this team. They've got a hobbled Wesley Matthews in there and they aren't even testing him

 

[Tunchi]

This is pathetic

 

[illmatic99]

ugh. CJ really has trouble with this defensive pressure. Could be time for Roberts to get in and play PG a bit

 

[Rhal]

When opponents trap and CJ is our only real ball handler our offense turns to utter crap

 

[Tunchi]

You feel me?! What the hell kind of showing is this pathetic

Dallas may be considering a hack-a-Blazer-any-Blazer strategy now

 

[ripcityboy]

Sometimes I wish we were a more physical team... Making the Mavs look like the Pistons right now.

 

[theprunetang]

We need to get some of Dwight Howard's sticky stuff. Coughing that ball up.

 

[Rhal]

This team is almost utterly reliant on Dame for ball movement. Its not just him passing but the pressure the D puts on him even when he isn't doing anything that opens up passing lanes.

 

[Jade Falcon]

 

[Rhal]

So add a SF who can dribble and be a decent passer to the things it would be nice to add this off season as well as competent big.

 

[BonesJones]

Does anyone have a livestream? Both Hehe and Hoopli aren't being updated.

 

[Pinwheel1]

I can't see how we can win this. We can't play tough D because they flop so well. (and cry) and Dallas does a good job of trapping without fouling. That is a formula for disaster. Although if we shot our free throws better it would help.

 

[Rhal]

I am just loving Henderson these last 12 or so games.

 

[Sinobas]

I hope we can resign GH

Looks like a game we need to keep close and then have Dame go HAM in the 4th.

I say we rent a 747 get some strippers and head for Vegas. Whatever it takes to get the signings.

 

[Tunchi]

I'm sorry the 6th-9th seed teams in the west are a joke lol

 

[B-Roy]

Play some defense seriously. They're just conceding everything

We have the most strip clubs per capita in the US. Blazers just gotta make that the main selling point of the presentation. "There is a strip club within walking distance anywhere in the city".

 

[Sinobas]

I feel like Portland really outmatches this team, but the Mavs are just much sharper right now

 

[VenomXL]

Mavs are just chopping away on the perimeter and when they do finally blow the whistle we miss foul shots.

I agree. I think we are better off coming from behind then leading most of the game. Dallas is crafty at working the refs especially when they are frustrated.
