Game Thread GAME# 78: BLAZERS @ MAVERICKS - APRIL 3, 2018 - TUESDAY, 5:30 PM (PST), NBCSNW

[SportsAndWhine]

Melo was 0/9 from three tonight.

Wait So Melo is a Blazer?

 

[KingSpeed]

Spurs have 4 games left. Lakers, Portland, Kings, and Pelicans. Gonna need a win against them to keep that 3rd seed

We should beat them handily. They're not that good.

 

[Labinot41]

Just win Clippers and lakers

 

[Jade Falcon]

That's not necessarily true. Plus, Rockets have been alternating Harden and Paul.

Oh shut up. We're not beating Houston you fool.

 

[Titan]

Well on to the next one

 

[kingslayer]

You saying that pretty much guarantees the Spurs will win.

 

[SportsAndWhine]

Oh shut up. We're not beating Houston you bowling shoe.

FTFY

 

[joeBlazers]

He would have fit perfectly tonight with his friends ... who were recruiting him.

Wait So Melo is a Blazer?

 

[DDolla]

Houston wants Spurs as the 3rd seed as they don’t want to face them in th second round.

 

[Jade Falcon]

FTFY

....so he's smelly and gets rented out a lot?

Nobody could shoot tonight, but Dame worked his ass off even on a sprained ankle.

ankle looked fine in the first half as Barea was cooking him. Just a horrible performance all around. this team has taken care of business all season. Bad timing to let up now

 

[KingSpeed]

When we have three seed and beat team X in first round of playoffs, we won't care about this game against Dallas.

 

[joeBlazers]

Who would you get in the draft? Marvin Bagley? Hell NO. We can get the MJ from Delaware in the second round.

Is it too late to start tanking?

 

[KingSpeed]

Just win Clippers and lakers

that's the spirit

 

[Chris Craig]

When we have three seed and beat team X in first round of playoffs, we won't care about this game against Dallas.

We may well lose out the rest if our games and lose HCA

No we haven't. We were losing like this in the first half of the season with regularity.

[BlazerBeav]

Great, Clippers not showing up.

 

[KingSpeed]

We may well lose out the rest if our games and lose HCA

Doubtful.

Was this game, or the Memphis game a few games ago worse?

 

[SynTax]

Aminu has hit hit 10 of his last 51 threes. Lillard has hit 20 of his last 104. Cj 15 of his last 55. We all know ET sucks. Napier 11 of his last 27 (including 4/4 today). Pat 7 of 26. Collins 6 of 26.

There's why we've lost to a bunch of scrubs. Stotts has everyone chucking 3s, but no one has been hitting. Lillard and Aminu have been letting the team down pretty badly. Especially Dame. He's the reason this team will probably win 50 games this year, but if he gets credit for that, he also has to get some blame. He's been terrible from all over the field, but especially bad from three.

Simply put, the Blazers have a lot of poor shooters, but still insist on chucking them at a really high rate.

 

[kingslayer]

Was this game, or the Memphis game a few games ago worse?

This game by far.

 

[Chris Craig]

This was a must win game.

 

[Chris Craig]

Stotts is carlisles bitch

 

[Chris Craig]

Enjoy your summer mavericks

20 of 104. That's not a typo?

Oh my God. And he's our best shooter.

Dame has only been slumping from three, so your point that he's been terrible all over the field is BUNK! Plus he has NOT been letting the team down. Are you drunk? Bring some good takes.

Well it looks like Aminu is ...... well.... Aminu.
