Game Thread GAME# 8: PELICANS @ BLAZERS - NOVEMBER 1, 2018 - THURSDAY, 7:30 PM (PDT), TNT

[BonesJones]

Cj 8 minutes = 0 points

Stauskas 4 seconds = 2 points

Oh, should C.J. isolate and force more shots to make sure he gets some points?

 

[TBpup]

It was absolutely not meant at a shot at Travis. He's done well when I've listened. Just wheels is like Nostalgia great voice too.

I didn't infer it as a shot at all. Just giving fill-in props to Travis.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Something about Gentry like annoys me. Not sure what it is, he seems like a good dude.

 

[Titan]

I disagree so much we need to fast break more, we've already gotten a dunk and a three off of transition...

Well then we need competent fast breakers, lol

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Well then we need competent fast breakers, lol

LOL, we do need to do a better job at running under control sometimes I agree there.

 

[Titan]

Sauces!

 

[TBpup]

How is this down to a tie game? Come on Blazers!

 

[Labinot41]

Stauskas for 6th man of the year !!!!

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

I was so wrong about SAUCE, he's like perfect for the Blazers.

 

[The Professional Fan]

Randle should not be able to muscle Nurk and Collins like he has

 

[TBpup]

Zach is reaching instead of going straight up. 2 quick fouls.

 

[The Professional Fan]

Sauce

 

[trailblazer18]

Randle is taking it to Zach

 

[Labinot41]

STAUSKAS !!!!!!

 

[julius]

The bench has not really been the help they need to be.

And then Nik hits another 3. So never mind.

 

[Titan]

Sauces again

 

[TBpup]

Can't leave Sauce wide open like teams do with Aminu.

 

[Labinot41]

The Pelicans still think we have no Shooting outside of Dame and CJ haha

 

[crandc]

Sauce heating up

 

[craigehlo]

I'd make Aminu check Randle. This is just silly.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Zach is reaching instead of going straight up. 2 quick fouls.

Their doing to Zach what the Blazers should be do to shot blockers, go straight at their chest.
I'm not worried at all about Zach on Defense, I think he'll adjust and learn how to guard guys who attack him like that, because his feet are quick.

 

[trailblazer18]

We might see Meyers if Randle gets all our bigs in foul trouble.

 

[Labinot41]

Randle with 14 points smh... Imagine Anthony Davis' statline

 

[illmatic99]

Dame has been protecting that left hand since the Houston game. Did CP do some dirty shit again?

 

[beast blazer]

Every time the pelicans drive, they call a foul.

 

[VenomXL]

So, maybe sag off Randle a bit and dare him to shoot jumpers?

 

[TBpup]

Randle with 14 points smh... Imagine Anthony Davis' statline

Always liked Randle and when he became available, thought he would be very good here.

Still, giving up 31 points in the 1st to a non-Davis/Payton team is a bit underwhelming.

 

[Gronk Brady]

I’ve seen enough of Stauskas skill set... I think he would be a much better fit in starting lineup at SG next to Dame... I’m more sure than ever we need to trade CJ and his 30 mil salary for an upgrade at SF/PF

 

[Jade Falcon]

Randle with 14 points smh... Imagine Anthony Davis' statline

Yeah, if Davis was in this game, it would be quite a different score. And not in our favor either.

 

[Scalma]

We might see Meyers if Randle gets all our bigs in foul trouble.

Hope not. Rather seen Evan guard him than Meyers.
