Game Thread GAME# 81: BLAZERS @ NUGGETS - APRIL 9, 2018 - MONDAY, 6:00 PM (PST), NBCSNW

[Darkwebs]

Shonz is somewhere shaking his head tonight

 

[KingSpeed]

Too many missed FTs

 

[TBpup]

At least he made one.

 

[BlazerBeav]

5 for our last 26. Against the worst defense in the NBA since January.

 

[H.C.]

Lillard got him.

 

[Rhal]

Murray wasn't shooting but i'm not sure if that was the first foul under 2 minutes.

 

[BonesJones]

Stupid ass foul.

 

[SIeepwalker]

What a dumb foul

 

[B-Roy]

Why did they foul. He was not going to make that shot.

 

[jlprk]

As usual, I'm spending fewer than half my minutes keeping track of this game, but what I see is...by outplaying Jokic, Nurkic is earning a max contract. Which is bad news for our financials. I was hoping we could keep hiding him more under the radar. This guy is becoming a league (not just team) star, which will prevent our adding another star.

5 team fouls

 

[kingslayer]

Welp. Gonna take a miracle.

 

[EGame]

observe blazers. thats how you make fts.dame missing so many is annoying as hell

 

[TBpup]

Damn....he made both.

 

[AFully22]

We win this game by 20+ two weeks ago.

Are you Paul Allen's accountant? Is all you care about is financials?

 

[KingSpeed]

If the Blazers lose but beat Utah and Denver wins their last game, does Denver get the #3 because of winning the season series?

No. We have 48 wins. Denver can't win 48.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Total disaster. One last chance to avoid choking away all they had worked for.

 

[H.C.]

We win this game by 20+ two weeks ago.

Disagree Denver is 30-10 at home.

easy. trade cj for something that helps us. CJ is as much of a star as Ellis or Randolph were.

 

[BonesJones]

It's too late for a 2for1 Hurd.

 

[Jade Falcon]

Congratulations Stotts.

 

[kingslayer]

Game over

 

[KingSpeed]

Well let's win on Wed

 

[EGame]

I wonder who gets the honor of kicking our ass in the first round

 

[BlazerBeav]

What the fuck play was that? It was three or bust there. Dame was craptastic tonight.

 

[SIeepwalker]

see ya

 

[Darkwebs]

So Stotts called an iso play out of the timeout?

 

[Jade Falcon]

Pathetic. That was your genius plan, huh Stotts?

I hope you're watching, Paul Allen.

 

[Strenuus]

.... okay?
