Game Thread GAME# 78: BLAZERS @ JAZZ - APRIL 4, 2017 - TUESDAY, 6:00 PM (PDT), CSNNW

[BonesJones]

Meyers with a post move, block, and a good shot contest, all in a row?!?!

 

[BonesJones]

Honest question for ya .. Would ya rather build around Jokic or Dame? No bias

Only reason I ask is I don't get how Denver is so good? Their team on paper looks meh and I don't see how they do it

With Nurkic, were better.

Even then, they're 4-8 players are better than ours. It's nothing to do with Lillard or Jokic.

That's not a valid question since we don't have Jokic, so it doesn't make sense.

Besides, I'd rather build around DAME and NURK.

 

[LuckyShot]

It is insane that Utah only has 9 fouls with how physical they have played.

Well shit, they foul their own teammates and the refs call it on us.

 

[BonesJones]

Help down Crabbe WTF

 

[MightyMouseOps1]

Meyers lack of instincts and awareness on defense shows time and time again

 

[B-Roy]

Someone tell Meyers he doesn't HAVE to jump at everything.

 

[Strenuus]

LOL Meyers. That flail was hysterical.

 

[kingslayer]

Of course the shot goes in when it doesn't count.

 

[A$AP Meyers]

Pathetic effort honestly. I don't care that we're sans Nurk, no one even looks like they give a shit tonight.

 

[VenomXL]

Blazers killer 78 year old Joe Johnson.

 

[B-Roy]

Of course that goes in.

 

[Strenuus]

Of cours we make that bucket when it doesn't count.

 

[BonesJones]

Our guards get blown by ask the time, leading our bigs to help.

Then, our guards don't help down on the opposing center.

It's called team defense.

 

[HailBlazers]

Not sure what's more annoying, watching Meyers or listening to y'all bitch about him.

 

[BonesJones]

Somehow I knew Johnson would make that.

 

[kingslayer]

Keep shooting those 3s old man.

 

[A$AP Meyers]

It's good to see that Terry addressed defending Joe Johnson at the timeout.

 

[Strenuus]

Not sure what's more annoying, watching Meyers or listening to y'all bitch about him.

Defintetly the first one.

The second one is just sweet sweet confirmation.

 

[e_blazer]

Has anyone noticed that Vonleh blows tonight?

 

[VenomXL]

This is the same team I got sick of watching a few months ago. Definitely not a playoff caliber squad without Nurk.

 

[Strenuus]

Ah yes, the old days where we have no one in the paint for wide open layups.

 

[LuckyShot]

Our guards get blown by ask the time, leading our bigs to help.

Then, our guards don't help down on the opposing center.

It's called team defense.

Stotts clearly doesn't teach much of that.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Nurkic effect also on Vonleh, he doesn't look so hot out there without Nurkic to feed him for those slams.

 

[blue9]

Vonleh is the sort of player that is made infinitely better when he plays with talented guys, but who is infinitely horrible when he plays with mediocre guys.

 

[Strenuus]

We have 5 assists so far.

LOL.

 

[B-Roy]

Watching this team without Nurk is like watching a dog try to swim upstream.

 

[VenomXL]

LOL fuckin Joe Johnson.

 

[A$AP Meyers]

Terry Stotts is fucking pathetic. He's had two timeouts to discuss how we are to defend Johnson off a screen and we continue to miscommunicate.

 

[Strenuus]

Such bad defense.
