Game Thread GAME# 79: BLAZERS @ ROCKETS - APRIL 5, 2018 - THURSDAY, 5:00 PM (PST), NBCSNW

[BonesJones]

If we actually won this game I wouldn't give Kingspeed shit or complain about him for the rest of the season and maybe next year.

 

[H.C.]

Use the backboard Swanigan.

 

[BonesJones]

Wtf was that pass by Napier?

Mbah a Moute can't finish.

 

[ripcityboy]

Still hope we resign Bazz. Hes a baller.

 

[BonesJones]

11 point game.
No Davis, No Lillard, No Harkless, CJ has 16? points on 30 shots?
Houston doesn't impress me at all.

They're not playing for anything.

 

[SIeepwalker]

Baldwin is playing game changing defense right now

 

[KingSpeed]

I like our D right now; get Nurk back in though

 

[BonesJones]

Pat, you have to realize you're gonna get blocked there... Cmon.

 

[Lukee]

This lineup offensively is trash. Terry what are you doing

 

[LuckyShot]

Swanigan having a good game

What game are you watching?

 

[KingSpeed]

this game should be tied

 

[BonesJones]

Baldwin is playing game changing defense right now

Can't wait until Stotts takes him out 2 minutes from now...

 

[BonesJones]

Swanigan's defense there lmao.

 

[H.C.]

They're not playing for anything.

They might not be playing their best two players 40+ minutes. But I don't think the Rockets look like a team that's laying down or going through the motions.

 

[KingSpeed]

here comes CJ and Nurk

 

[BonesJones]

Pass the ball Shabazz for Christ's sake.

Dude took 30 dribbles on that possession without a single pass.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Get Shabazz out!

 

[KingSpeed]

I knew Rockets couldn't shoot 60% from 3 for the whole game

 

[Jade Falcon]

Interesting.

 

[illmatic99]

Young guys are playing hard

 

[BonesJones]

Swanigan is awful ugh. Just not ready for this type of basketball. He's gonna be a G-League star for his career.

 

[KingSpeed]

What game are you watching?

8 points 3 rebounds? Is that his career high?

 

[Lukee]

Keep Wade in, and get Shabazz out.

 

[SIeepwalker]

If Wade is out after this TO i"m gonna be PISSED

 

[Jon]

Did he just say the blazers lead by 10?

 

[BonesJones]

I knew Rockets couldn't shoot 60% from 3 for the whole game

Except the do so regularly...

 

[illmatic99]

Is this Baldwin for real?

Dude is ballin

 

[KingSpeed]

Swanigan is a team high +7

 

[SIeepwalker]

8 points 3 rebounds? Is that his career high?

Watch the game, not the boxscore

 

[LuckyShot]

Let's see a lineup of Shabazz, Baldwin, ET, Aminu, and Nurk. Sounds bad on paper, but they're the ones who seem to be playing the best tonight.
