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

[ripcityboy]

Literally limping into the playoffs

Gary Sanchez gets hurt and now this? I can't win!

 

[Dougnsalem]

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

That's what Butters is for....

 

[LuckyShot]

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

Next season.

 

[MarAzul]

Next season.

Oh!

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Sitting in the Nike suite tonight! I'd upload a pic but the site keeps saying my file extension doesn't match my content...

(Hold for laugh)

 

[BlazerCaravan]

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

That's the secret: sit him for the bad games and only play him for the good games!

I might be wrong, but I don't think theres been an update after the official release.
Which was 2 weeks re-eval.

Ah! Thanks.

The problem is that we probably won't have any more games in 2 weeks. I hope that's not the case, but we are not looking good.

Re-evaluation is in less than 1 week. He's already doing shooting drills. He'll be back for playoffs if we make it.

Turner has to step up with CrAbbe out

 

[KingSpeed]

Clippers winning so this is a very big game for Utah

 

[H.C.]

Turner has to step up with CrAbbe out

I'd say Harkless has to show up more than Turner.
Harkless has been pretty MIA past two games. Think the PPD is going to put out an APB soon.
He had 3 good scoring games previous to that, but he was clearly hurting Portland last game against Minn.

Good call. And CJ/Dame MUST shoot well.

I know. I'm just saying that's a very big "if" as of right now.

 

[Chris Craig]

Why is Crabbe out?

 

[Chris Craig]

Calzones and beer, I'm ready!

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I'd prefer we lose the rest of our games, but no tanking.

I think it's a big if too.
I hope he plays in the playoffs, but I'm just don't see it happening.

 

[KingSpeed]

Let's go Meyers!!!!

 

[EGame]

how comw were in our black unis?

 

[Chris Craig]

No crabbe, alright it's time to use our secret weapon....

Jake The snake Layman

 

[ripcityboy]

No Aminu too? Ouch.

 

[BBert]

Starting Meyers. He needs to hit a couple of shots early to pull Gobert out of the paint

 

[H.C.]

If I've learned anything about Portland... Stotts should be careful. he's prolly going to get injured next.

 

[BBert]

Just as I'm slow typing that, Meyers does just that, LOL

 

[DUB]

LET'S GO TRAIL BLAZERS!!!

 

[Road Ratt]

He hit the 3 but I still cringe every time Leonard shoots the ball.

 

[LuckyShot]

Great defense to start....
