Game Thread GAME 77: BLAZERS @ TIMBERWOLVES - APRIL 3, 2017 - MONDAY, 4:00 PM (PST), CSNNW

[H.C.]

Damn if only Dame wasn't having an off night. That was a shot he can make in his sleep.

Entire team had an off night. Lillard scored like the last 8 points before Crabbe's free throws?

 

[illmatic99]

God that was right there

 

[KingSpeed]

Damian Anti-Clutch Lillard strikes again. When will the Blazers ever let CJ have a chance?

CJ hit our only buzzer beating shot of the year. Against Dallas.

 

[Rhal]

our record in games decided by 3 points or less has got to not only a blazers all time low but a league all time low.

I hope you're joking...

 

[B-Roy]

This team is just bad without Nurk....

 

[Rhal]

I hope you're joking...

He is not, he is on this giant "Lillard sucks in the clutch" rampage that he has been touting for two years now.

 

[Sinobas]

I hope you're joking...

No, damian has missed almost every game deciding shot he's taken this year. He's been simply awful.

 

[KingSpeed]

We probably weren't going to win 12 straight but it still sucks.

 

[BlazerBeav]

We probably weren't going to win 12 straight but it still sucks.

The problem was this was one of the easy ones, and we just booted it away.

 

[Chris Craig]

Now we have to play Utah on the second night of a back to back....fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck

 

[ripcityboy]

I Love Nurk. (Ripcityboy, are you just looking at a picture of Nurkic.) I Love Nurk. I love Nurk.

Cj missed almost every shot he took tonight. He was simply awful.

 

[KingSpeed]

No, damian has missed almost every game deciding shot he's taken this year. He's been simply awful.

Dame hit the three to cut it to 2 with under a minute to play to even give us a chance.

 

[Rhal]

It would be such a Blazers way to end a road trip 1-1 winning the game we shouldn't have and losing the game we should have.

 

[KingSpeed]

The problem was this was one of the easy ones, and we just booted it away.

It was on the road. Beating Wolves 3 straight times was unlikely.

 

[BlazerBeav]

It was on the road. Beating Wolves 3 straight times was unlikely.

Bullshit, we always beat that team.

 

[BonesJones]

No, damian has missed almost every game deciding shot he's taken this year. He's been simply awful.

He has. But I still trust him to get a good shot.

2 years ago he hit almost every game deciding shot. This year he's struggled.

Does that mean we shouldn't have our best player and scorer, who has done it before, shooting the last shot? He got a great look and it was halfway down. I can live with that.

 

[Trackjack]

The thing is without a center we going need alot of help from other teams to beat Denver for us to make the playoffs. I know we got those home games but teams will attack us at the rim the rest of the season. I am not saying we can't win some games but we Utah twice and spurs once. We will have to at least 2-3 to have a chance to make it in.

 

[KingSpeed]

With a win tomorrow and a Pelicans win, the magic number gets down to 2. Let's get it done.

 

[KingSpeed]

Aminu had 20 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists, and 3 blocks. We'll need that again tomorrow.

 

[PDXFonz]

With a win tomorrow and a Pelicans win, the magic number gets down to 2. Let's get it done.

I think the Pelicans are officially eliminated from the playoffs if they lose tomorrow, so there is incentive for them to give their best effort and try to win that game.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Didn't get to watch but I'm assuming not having Nurk is what killed us.

 

[Trackjack]

The good thing Utah been having 3 players out lately.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Didn't get to watch but I'm assuming not having Nurk is what killed us.

Yes, but there was still more than enough if either CJ or Dame had not been ice cold.

 

[KingSpeed]

Didn't get to watch but I'm assuming not having Nurk is what killed us.

Actually, Aminu played well at C but Dame & CJ couldn't shoot.

 

[KingSpeed]

The good thing Utah been having 3 players out lately.

Really? Who?

 

[BigGameDamian]

With a win tomorrow and a Pelicans win, the magic number gets down to 2. Let's get it done.

You should be promoted to assistant coach!

 

[HailBlazers]

Yea without a true center we're DOA.
