Game Thread GAME# 9: LAKERS @ BLAZERS - NOVEMBER 2, 2017 - THURSDAY, 7:30 (PDT), TNT

[Strenuus]

That wasnt a great feed. That was a standard throw it up there and let him get it.

Has Harlan ever seen a game before?

 

[SIeepwalker]

holy shit our defense is awful

 

[BlazerBeav]

God damn. Even a bunch of scrubs in those jerseys still get all the damn calls.

 

[VenomXL]

Gave up a 37 point quarter to this shit team. Absolutely abysmal. This is the kind of thing that'll get Stotts fired.

 

[kingslayer]

The lanes are wide open for them every damn time. Love this defensive strategy!

 

[KingSpeed]

Stotts watches as another huge lead gets blown in record time.

ANOTHER? When have we had a game this year where we've blown a huge lead?

 

[Nikolokolus]

"Bad Boys" huh?

Riiiiii-iiiiight.

no it won't

 

[TBpup]

holy shit our defense is awful

Lakers are 0-9 from '3' so it's not like they are hitting their outside shots and are little threat to do so. Perhaps pack the paint? Damn....Blazers still going over the top of screens against a team that can't shoot. This is one of my huge issues with Stotts. It's not like we are playing the Rockets or the Warriors. This adjustment should have been made before the game even started.

 

[Cippy91]

Hey look Charles Barkley is right. We are a middle of the road team who plays bad defense

 

[riverman]

Big 2nd half....mop the purple and piss off the court!

 

[Trackjack]

They look tired in the 2nd Qt. especially Nurk. They have no reaction to any loose ball in that QT. Stotts doesn't call time outs when need too.

 

[TBpup]

Chuckster right on with his halftime analysis.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Barkley nails it!

Shaq loves Nurk.

 

[VenomXL]

Nurk called last year's defense trash on media day. What would he call whatever the hell that just was?

 

[TBpup]

Kenny Smith basically called out Stotts for a lack of preparedness. He didn't say 'coach' but getting the team prepped with a good game plan is on the coaching staff.

 

[LuckyShot]

I don't disagree with anything the TNT guys have said. That chip thing was hilarious though.

 

[The Professional Fan]

Thank you!

Come on Blazers. Wake up. End this half strong.

And FUCK TNT for drooling all over the Lakers. And fuck those bandwagon fans in OUR HOUSE.

I HATE HATE HATE seeing that much L*ker gear in our house. It’s awful

I’m trying really hard not to take the lazy approach to comparing Collins and Meyers just because they are both tall white boy band looking guys but I have a bad feeling...

 

[Jade Falcon]

Lonzo could not look any more like a douchebag if he tried.

Let's see how is is next year when he bulks up. I expect him to put on at least 20 lbs of muscle, probably more.

I don’t hate it as much as seeing all these new Warriors fans who have no idea who any Warriors were before 2015

Don’t do it. You’ll be on the wrong side of history

 

[THE HCP]

Making friends left and right!

 

[kjironman1]

You were saying?

Didn't get the call but he sure made up for it didn't he?

So did Meyers.

6 of one, half dozen of the other
