Game Thread GAME# 79: BLAZERS @ WARRIORS - APRIL 9, 2015 - THURSDAY, 7:30 PM (PST), TNT

CJ is a revelation

He is. Its like it all just clicked. Some people have it happen that way. A light goes on. 'Wait a minute, I belong here'.

 

[Rhal]

Just put our defensive specialist on him. CJ McCollum!

Great minds think alike.

 

[EGame]

So is McCollum are difference maker come playoff time. Is he the difference from a series win or loss? Or is it Batum or Afflalo? Which one do we need to step up most? Someone from the bench who can compete with other teams benches or Batum who can absolutely be dominant when he wants too or the new guy Afflalo?

 

[KingSpeed]

Blazers bench outscoring Warriors bench 15-6

 

[MickZagger]

LEONARD SMASH! Great assist by Dame

Damn, I missed it.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Rudy sighting!

All of the above.

It annoys me how Kerr just sits there with a smug look on his face all the time.

I was just thinking that too.

CJ because he's the guy they really haven't scouted

 

[KingSpeed]

Damn, I missed it.

Dunked it off his head, it was awesome.

 

[Darkwebs]

We need Dame to find his stroke, like that

 

[KingSpeed]

It's a blowout

 

[Darkwebs]

Thank god Nic found his way out of his slump. That All-star break was a godsend

 

[riverman]

I love this team

 

[Darkwebs]

Dame 2 jumpers made in a row

 

[Darkwebs]

LOL. Klay passes it to the shot clock. Hahaha

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Damn what has happened to Lillard latley man.. Ever since the all star break he just fell off.. His stoke isn't money no more

I agree!

 

[KingSpeed]

Lillard abusing Curry

 

[Darkwebs]

Refs bailed out Dame right there

 

[EGame]

you think we would defend the one person who is actually making shots. nope of course not.

 

[S550]

Curry is unstoppable

 

[KingSpeed]

Curry giving it all he can and we're still up 7. Warriors can't beat us.

 

[Darkwebs]

Curry was way too wide open there. Someone's gotta stick to him like glue

 

[VenomXL]

Oh my god. One guy is hurting us. Can someone please stay with him?

 

[magnifier661]

We got em right where we want em

 

[riverman]

We can beat this team!

 

[B-Roy]

Lillards defense is sickening. Show some effort.

 

[KingSpeed]

I wonder how Wes would do on Curry.

 

[EGame]

lillard shouldn't even be on curry in the first place. Just like against the spurs in the playoffs last year, Batum should have been on Parker and should be on Curry in this game. Then stick Dame on Barnes.

 

[MickZagger]

I think Stotts likes playing CJ more than Afflalo these days.
