Game Thread GAME# 80: JAZZ @ BLAZERS - APRIL 8, 2017 - SATURDAY, 7:00 (PDT), KGW

That shit he's dealing with isn't gonna get right in a week. I don't think his injury is holding him back from doing things he otherwise would be doing anyway. His mental state is more of a roadblock than his injury.

Bingo. He's never recovered from hurting his labrum. A tear like is difficult to recover from and he wasn't all that too keen to go inside much any way. I think if we were using him as a stretch 4 and not more than 15 min a game it wouldn't be a problem. But I think if Meyers could talk to us he'd say, "I'm not going to bang inside. And I'm just fine outside shooting 3's for the rest of my career. So just get used to it." That's obviously his game plan.

 

[Driew]

Yeah, but it's not like his jumping did anything but lead to fouls in the first place haha.

hahahaha yeah you got a point there!

 

[BrunoSOC]

Very hard game but we can take

 

[Scalma]

Gobert is going to be murder but maybe we can neutralize him a bit by going small and forcing him to chase aminu around.

A Good Guy Aminu game where he randomly decides to hit 5-of-6 from three would do it.

Jazz winning tonight bodes well for us. They will still be hungry tomorrow, but maybe not bloodthirsty like they would be if they lost tonight.

It's just a really bad matchup and there isn't one likeable guy on that team so it makes it even worse. Pure aggravation.

Looking at the standings, I think the Jazz wants to stay where they are to retain home court. My money is with them tonight. Cant believe that AC has another super man type game to pull it out for us.

Yeah but we just need 2 guards of our guards to be hot. Tonight could be Dame and CJ. But I agree if I had to put money on it I would go with the Jazz.

This game is positively on KGW?

And so Once again, Commiecast doesn't have it listed in the guide to select from to record on DVR.....

And MY beloved Blazers are in bed with these ass hats that have more pixelating and freezes during games than all other TV I watch combined.

I don't know if it's the signal out of the truck or out of CSNNW, but the games have always looked like greased garbage. I know some of their cameras are... vintage, but even then the game shouldn't always look as bad as it does.

I gave up on our Comcast. WAY better streaming the opposing team's telecast. Hurd and Calabro talk so much about our opponents players anyways- I may as well listen to their announcers.

A big plus- the other announcers know we aren't in Seattle, and can actually pronounce our player names correctly. It's rather enjoyable.

AND, I get to see the National Anthem, watch the stupid(but entertaining) games they do during timeouts, see the dancing routines, don't have the game covered by ads(most are on the side so you can still watch the game. Genius!!!), don't have to listen to keys of the game (that I already know).....

Want more??? Lol

Crabbe is doubtful to play due to a sore foot.

WAT

 

[noknobs]

How are the Blazers favorites in this game according to Vegas?

 

[Po'sFinest]

Crabbe is doubtful to play due to a sore foot.

WAT

Probably hurt it at practice

 

[BigGameDamian]

Sounds like a Trail Blazers to me.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Nope he hurt it getting out of the shower.

 

[Nate]

Nope he hurt it getting out of the shower.

I heard it was on the sprinkler in his front yard.

I blame HCP. And Obama.

I heard that when he went to take his shoe off after the TWolves game the rubber melted onto his foot.

 

[illmatic99]

Literally limping into the playoffs

 

[LuckyShot]

You mean limping out of the playoffs. We need a miracle.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

It's not a big deal, right? Since Crabbe is so inconsistent and beta, we won't really miss him at all. Right? And his defense is so bad not playing him will be addition by subtraction, right? Right?

makes sense, he was probably due for a 3 pt game anyway

 

[Boob-No-More]

How's Exum doing? Became a starter for them?

Well, he's doing better than he did his rookie year, but that's not saying much. So, is pretty much everyone else - ever.

He's only starting because George Hill is injured. When Hill is healthy, Exum gets 15 MPG backing him up.

BNM

 

[riverman]

We need Connaugton (or any 3rd stringer) to come into the game and get Gobert in foul trouble or ejected....get all their bigs in foul trouble early and play small ball..probably see some 3 guard lineup tonight with Napier getting more burn

 

[riverman]

Gotta work tonight..probably just see the first qtr. Go Blazers!

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

No Crabbe tonight? Is it possible for this game to be uglier than that last game in Utah?

We are screwed.

 

[MarAzul]

When does the Big Blazer come back? Or does he?
