Lord. We suck at ending halves. lol.

Mason really looks like he could be the love child of Terry Stotts

 

[DaLincolnJones]

still like to send Kanter a bacon sandwich

 

[Sinobas]

Patented Blazers fast break bungle

when his new counteract comes into play, he had better hope so...

 

[Tunchi]

God Cj is going to end up shooting nearly 45% from 3 by the time the seaosn is over

 

[Jade Falcon]

Hendo limping. Really concerned about his knees; he ices both of them after each game.

 

[DaLincolnJones]

well, adult beverage break boys

 

[Strenuus]

72 - single half high... any half.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

The Trail Blazers recorded 20 assists on 25 field goals in the first half. Portland's season high for assists in a game is 34 (3/12 vs ORL).

72 pts...yeah, we gotta improve on that

 

[Strenuus]

72 pts...yeah, we gotta improve on that

Yes, we should. Should have had 80.

Defense defense defense

Think

Aminu is on triple double watch tonight.

Good god I never thought I would utter those words.

A triple double dribble?

 

[Trackjack]

You got get Kanter off the offense board and again with Stotts system OKC took full advantage he need to make adjustment at the half. But I know he won't it not his coaching style.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Portland's 72 points in the first half are its most in any half this season (70, first half vs. NO on Oct. 28).

 

[Jade Falcon]

I'm not over-thinking this game. They're not playing 4 of their 5 starters tonight. The score would be far closer, maybe even their lead, if they were playing.

I know this is not an original observation, but I just have to say it: love the offense - but there are times the defense drives me crazy.

No, that's pretty original. It didn't have "Lillard sucks" anywhere in it.

No, that's pretty original. It didn't have "Lillard sucks" anywhere in it.

You mean "Leonard sucks"....I have not been ragging on Dame.

 

[Strenuus]

You mean "Leonard sucks"....I have not been ragging on Dame.

I wasn't saying you said that... I was saying that people with unoriginal thoughts say that. lol.

19 bench points so far. Let's hope we get quite a few more in the second half. Get some rest for our starters.

 

[Strenuus]

Harkless doing work!

We need to hit the boards too

 

[B-Roy]

If Houston wins, it sends them in a 3 way tie with Dallas and Utah. Basically seals the 6th seed.

 

[DaLincolnJones]

well, you know that this is a gift. Thunder would love to play us in the first round

 

[riverman]

24 assists already..that's great

 

[DaLincolnJones]

they need to get back to passing the damn ball

 

[Jade Falcon]

Plums drilled in the plums? Dude's a stud.

 

[Strenuus]

The Plums got kicked.
