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

[BlazerCaravan]

I don't know why dame doesn't get calls

No beard.

 

[S550]

Well, we played them even for the quarter. Teams trading punches. In the fourth, there is nothing they can do about Aldridge.

Well there's nothing we can do about Curry

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Oh sure, now call a foul.

 

[KingSpeed]

It's a good fight. I give the Warriors credit for trying.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Smart move, Dame. Better to pretend to shoot than to miss.

 

[riverman]

Hell of a game

 

[BlazerCaravan]

It's a good fight. I give the Warriors credit for trying.

If by trying you mean "beating us", then yeah.

 

[VenomXL]

Hmmm. Not sure how I feel about this game. We need to go back inside with Rolo and LA or we are going to get smoked.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Playing 5 on 8 once we got the lead.

 

[KingSpeed]

I'd like to see more of Leonard in the second half. We played great when he was out there.

 

[KingSpeed]

If by trying you mean "beating us", then yeah.

Sure, a three point lead but inevitably we'll win the game. That is obvious to people who undstand the game of basketball.

 

[EGame]

Most of our bench played great. Sadly, our starters had to come back in.

This.

I clearly don't undstand the game.

...I do understand it though.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Playing 5 on 8 once we got the lead.

When Curry beat the record, the refs started jacking the Warriors off to finish the job.

 

[S550]

Golden State is just too good. Their playing for nothing out there but exercise, we had a 13 point lead, pretty good play by everyone on our bench, and we still are losing.

Cj has been terrific really glad he's coming around he's going to be so much better next year. We'll be scary

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Zeke is pretty sure our defense is the worst he's ever seen.

 

[EGame]

Zeke is pretty sure our defense is the worst he's ever seen.

not sure i can argue it. We are improved sure, but this game has made it pretty obvious we take screens like we just got knocked out from a punch and leads to open jumpshots or easy drives to the hoop.

 

[VenomXL]

Welcome to the Sprint Halftime Warriors Cocksuck. I wasn't sure they were even going to mention who they were playing tonight.

 

[HailBlazers]

Well maybe if the Blazers didn't blow their lead with shotty defense and weak execution it'd be different

 

[B-Roy]

I've tried to be patient with Afflalo, but now I don't really see the point.

I'm glad we have him right now, but honestly CJ is better at both sides of the ball. There's no reason why we should bring him back for 8-10 million a year when CJ provides the same thing on a rookie scale contract. Kind of stings that we gave up a first for him in a year where we lose Matthews, but it is what it is.

 

[S550]

Our defense does suck. It's back to that level again. Outscored 21-5 in the last 4 1/2 minutes and 15-2 in the last 3 minutes..

Warriors aren't even playing for nothing..

 

[OneLifeToLive]

I'd be damned if they can get a call.

Impressed with CJ. He's scoring and clamping down on Thompson

 

[MickZagger]

We can never hold leads.

 

[S550]

I forgot draymond green hasn't even got started

 

[OneLifeToLive]

What was that LA?

 

[EGame]

lmao. well it was fun feeling like we were good for a little bit. no more.

 

[VenomXL]

Fucking terrible start to the quarter.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Your NBA champions.

 

[S550]

It's over.. Fun while it lasted tho
