Game Thread GAME# 76: SUNS @ BLAZERS - APRIL 1, 2017 - SATURDAY, 7:00 (PDT), CSNNW

[SIeepwalker]

Meyers you suck

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I don't get Calabro and Hurd on LP very often, so I might be behind...is there some kind of running joke about CJ not dunking and Hurd giving him sauce for it?

Calabro and Hurd kinda live in their own little world. Fake TV shows, a lot of "I told you so!" and then at least twice a game Hurd will go into this really strange Sanford & Son impression, "They're killin' me... they're killin' me! Oh my heart, they're killin' me!"

 

[Mediocre Man]

The difference between Nurk and Fabio is amazing. I mean....you knew how much there was, but just wow.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Does your last name start with M?

Nope.

D

Dog.

 

[PDXFonz]

Nope.

D

Dog.

Really? Damn I thought I saw some kind of resemblance between you and Mark Mason.

 

[H.C.]

So Portland has good Aminu atm.
Hard to beat

 

[Chris Craig]

Portland destroying sans Nurk

 

[Darkwebs]

Aminu is channeling his inner Durant

 

[SlyPokerDog]

 

[BrianFromWA]

Aminu is channeling his inner Durant

More like his inner Larry Bird. Man alive...

 

[BrianFromWA]

ahve we scored 40 in a quarter this year? Dont think so...

 

[BrianFromWA]

Don't worry, I'll shut up. That was 3 of the most horrible possessions we've had today, all in a row.

 

[SIeepwalker]

God this is ugly

 

[H.C.]

Vonleh better learn fast the only thing bringing the ball down after you get the rebound does is let guards steal your 2 points.

 

[Sinobas]

Blazers looking so soft on interior defense without Nurk. So noticable.

 

[Trackjack]

Great offense and good defense in the 1st

 

[H.C.]

smallest lineup this year.
CJ/Crabbe/Turner/Harkless/Aminu.

 

[H.C.]

Why isn't Portland switching everything with this lineup? Only real mismatch is if CJ gets matched up with williams.

 

[BrianFromWA]

You know, if Chief and Turner are even passable 3pt shooters (say, 33-35%), this team is damn dangerous on offense.

 

[Sinobas]

Turner 2 for 2

 

[BrianFromWA]

And, cue.

 

[SIeepwalker]

Wtf Turner

 

[Trackjack]

They are not messing around against this team.

 

[Sinobas]

Can't convert a 3-1 fast break...I swear, this team. Could they convert a 5-1 fast break?

 

[Trackjack]

Good timeout by Stotts they look like they might go on a run.

 

[H.C.]

Can't convert a 3-1 fast break...I swear, this team. Could they convert a 5-1 fast break?

For the past few years I've wondered if Portland could convert a 5 on none fastbreak.

 

[Shaboid]

"Bravest guy in the building"

I'll give him that one!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Can't convert a 3-1 fast break...I swear, this team. Could they convert a 5-1 fast break?

Really? So many good plays by the Blazers so far in this game and you find one to complain about?

 

[Trackjack]

Talking about loosing focus on this team that about 4 minutes of terrible basketball.

 

[BrianFromWA]

NBA ball is a game of runs, nobody wins by 50 very often. Good timeout, take a breath, get back out of ratball. That just helps PHX.
