Game Thread GAME# 77: BLAZERS @ NETS - APRIL 6, 2015 - MONDAY, 4:00 PM (PST), CSNNW

[Eastoff]

I'm admittedly more excited to watch Wisconsin than the Damian Lillard and friends show.

I realize this is a little bit of a reach, but I was at work and getting anxious for the game to start. And it felt like it had been a long time since the Blazers won one of those East Coast early games during the work week. Sure enough, the last one was way back on December 9th at Detroit. Over the stretch, we lost to Cleveland, Atlanta, Washington, Miami, and Orlando. Again, just M-F games (we beat Toronto and Indiana over the course of that same stretch).

 

[Boob-No-More]

I totally forgot that was tonight.

Mainly, because I couldn't care less about it.

Well, it is nice that for those so inclined, they can watch the entire POR-BRK game and still catch most of the NCAA championship game. Blazers vs. Nets starts at 4:00pm PST and the NCAA championship does not tipoff until 6:18pm. I"ll miss most of the first half of the Blazes game (stuck at work), but will watch the entire second half and then switch over to the Duke-Wisconsin game after the Blazers are done beating the Nets.

It's not often that you get to see two teams take down the nets on the same night!

I can't decide if that's just a random obscure stat or if that actually means something.

No comsuck and I don't do pirated sites anymore since the last time I had to get disinfected.

Ah that sucks. I would give you my league pass log in, but I don't think its works when you have black outs

Announcer on big screen just now said we are missing Will Batum and Wesley Johnson. What a fucking idiot.

 

[KingSpeed]

[Boob-No-More]

BNM

 

[S550]

Lillard no defense lol

 

[Wizard Mentor]

What about DeMarcus Aldridge?

BNM

or Darius Lillard!

 

[S550]

My god cj is the real deal. I just have no idea why he sucks on free throws

 

[Boob-No-More]

I'm glad Stotts took my advice and started C.J. against Brown!

BNM

 

[magnifier661]

That McCollum kid is pretty good

 

[Boob-No-More]

Meyers Leonard on pace to grab 40 rebounds - assuming he plays all 48 minutes.

BNM

 

[KingSpeed]

Leonard gonna grab 30 rebounds tonight, lol

You took the words out of my mouth

 

[magnifier661]

Meyers hurt now too? Wtf is going on here?!?!

 

[ChadWick]

Leonard gonna grab 30 rebounds tonight, lol

Not if his left wrist is injured

 

[BBert]

What about DeMarcus Aldridge?

BNM

DeMarcus didn't make the trip either. Those Dufuses didn't even notice, apparently.

 

[BBert]

Please tell me Nards didn't hurt his wrist. Lie if you have to.

 

[ChadWick]

Please tell me Nards didn't hurt his wrist. Lie if you have to.

He was holding it but he's okay now. No lie.

 

[Boob-No-More]

Please tell me Nards didn't hurt his wrist. Lie if you have to.

Yes, please do - especially with Freeland picking up 3 quick fouls!

BNM

 

[BBert]

Afflalo 1-6 (again)?

The guy is no Wesley Matthews.

 

[Boob-No-More]

OK, Meyers back in and pulling down rebounds. That's a good sign...

Blazers seem to have really bad scoring droughts this year

 

[BBert]

That was the starting lineup I asked for. So far so good.

Now let's see the backups hold the lead.
