Now I understand why the game is on Youtube, the NBA broadcasts all of the NBDL games on there.

I'm watching a crystal-clear Russian stream.

I'm watching a crystal-clear Russian stream.

That only happens when I drink too much vodka.

 

[LuckyShot]

Are you fucking serious? Amir Johnson?

 

[LuckyShot]

I love Ed Davis.

 

[LuckyShot]

Dame looked rattled trying to force that drive. Just take what's there, Dame.

Man what happened to Lillard latley?? The last last 7-8 games he's barely noticeable

 

[jlprk]

The Celtic commentators just estimated that Lillard is really 6 foot 1, not his listed 6-3. I've always said 6-2.

 

[Tunchi]

Thomas is going to eat up Lillard tonight

 

[LuckyShot]

Man what happened to Lillard latley?? The last last 7-8 games he's barely noticeable

Constantly getting doubled off ball screens and then getting denied heavily by the other team's best perimeter defender.

He'll never make the excuse, but I have a feeling his foot is not healthy. He doesn't look 100% to me.

You just called him a superstar. lol.

 

[LuckyShot]

So we know Boston makes a living off of turnovers, and we proceed to make some of the dumbest fucking passes I've ever seen.

How? He's been balling out before this terrible stretch I can't blame it on health when he was on a tear..

I love Lillard but this is what I mean when I say the feast or famine theory with him. His feast last month just happened to last longer than usual.. Now he's making up time for his famine games smh

He's essentially a full 6'2" w/o shoes.

6.1.75"

He is

Did you use a bib to catch all the drool that you must be having... you've been waiting a month and a half for that.

 

[cardova08]

This should be a pretty competitive game. Both teams are good and have different styles. The good news for the Blazers is that guys other than Dame and CJ are playing well. I think you'll just have to out score the Celtics.

eewww, I'll stick to the Blazers broadcast. But thanks.

 

[Strenuus]

So I am having to use the trailblazers home page for the box score.

This is a fucking joke. Worst design ever.

He was hitting ridiculous shots. He's always been a streak shooter. But I don't think it can be denied that he is less explosive going to the rim this year. Last season he was taking it to the rack for a dunk almost every game, and this year he rarely attempts it.

 

[BengalDuck]

CJ ruins a 3-on-1 break trying to double-clutch reverse layup? WTF?

 

[Cippy91]

I find myself wanting to snap at tunchi but it's not worth it. When Lillard does good, he's silent. Blazers do good. Silence. Only talks when both are doing bad.

 

[Tunchi]

I can tell you notice the slump lol

 

[LuckyShot]

Fuck these refs. We're getting called for touch and phantom fouls and Boston is being very physical and we get jack shit.

 

[Cippy91]

And some of these calls are pretty ridiculous. One sided

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

that was great defense

 

[Sinobas]

I'm over it. This franchise used up all their fast breaks in the Porter/Drexler/Kersey era. We will never be able to run it again.

 

[kingslayer]

Boston's defense is suffocating. Looks exactly how the other game played out thus far.
