Game Thread GAME# 72: TIMBERWOLVES @ BLAZERS - MARCH 25, 2017 - SATURDAY, 7:00 PM (PST), CSNNW

Hurd may be many things. Funny is not one of them.

 

[GDiama]

Vonleh looks like Harkless of last year. He is steadily progressing, lets hope he can keep this up. He is really useful already, but he can do much more.

The new generation of blazer fans will like him

Now that's funny

 

[theprunetang]

Nah

I like Hurd. I loved Mike and Mike as well, but the new guys are doing a good job, in my opinion. I didn't think it was necessary to replace the Mike's. But, I'm not butthurt about it. The new guys do a good broadcast.

Note that these games tend to happen later in the season, when we were fighting for position.

I'm surprised that there are so many games from way back when few 3s were attempted.

CJ Appreciation.!

Portland's 10-3 record in March is third-best in the NBA (Milwaukee/San Antonio, 11-3).

Should be NBA best 11-2, if not for the blown no-call For stepping OB vs Wash. The league has to be hoping, almost as much as Blazer fans do, that the missed call isn't the difference for the #8 seed. Not a good look for them.

Doug must be related to me. We have the same sense of humor.

You have any "Bundy" ancestors?

I'm sure the league has already forgotten about that game lol

So the "new generation" of fan from just this year?

They will be gone in 2 years, and most likely at least Barrett will be back. Heard way too many stories of people towards the later part of this season not even tuning into the broadcasts because of the announcers. Not just the beginning "Oh, it's not mike and mike crowd" ... but the "we gave them half the season, and I still don't like them" time.

Who knows? Al, Ted or Cliven?

 

[Dougnsalem]

Lol. Damn it, you took my joke. We did the geneology, and I'm related to Al Bundy. Not Ted....

They don't watch because of some announcers?? Oh that's interesting. If your a fan of the team then you shouldn't care about the announcers. Shit there's ppl in the state that can't even get blazer games that would LOVE to even hear amateurs call the game if they can just watch their blazers..

You can listen to wheels - you can get the other teams broadcast if you have league pass- which is what I do... It's the best thing to do when the announcers we have are subpar.

Some people have started going out of their way to watch the games without them two. It's not really that interesting, it's just happening. Sorry not sorry.

Calabro is better than Barrett in colorfully describing the action. Hurd is better than Rice at analyzing it. Hurd is bad at being entertaining. Hurd needs to stick to analysis. They need a third guy to provide comedy.
