Game Thread GAME# 9: LAKERS @ BLAZERS - NOVEMBER 3, 2018 - SATURDAY, 7:00 (PDT), NBCSNW

[James lamphear]

If the way both of these teams have play in the 2nd half the Blazers been strong and the Lakers have struggled at times.

I thought CJ was going to pass that to Collins in the corner, he looked open but the angle was kind of hard to see.

Open guys are often difficult for CJ to see.

Aminu SUUCKS. Why do we have him? What is he good for??

He played a great half no doubt, but I'd stand by my comments on how he's played in other games this year. I don't believe I ever called for him to get traded or anything.

 

[julius]

how many of Javale's 27mpg are going to Tyson Chandler tomorrow?

Probably not a lot of them. Chandler in his prime would've been a much better starter for the Lakers (currently), but he's really not a good player anymore.

That comment wasn't really meant as a jab at him, I literally thought the play was for CJ to have the option to kick it out if they sagged off, and it appeared to me they did. So I was a bit surprised it didn't go over there.

He does some good things, his style of play just goes against the rest of the team

Tiffany Kent? Jordan Kent? Gee, I wonder how she got that job...#connections

If you copy the link to the tweet it will show up better in here. It's much easier too.

I use the App bones

I don't think he had enough time. Shot clock was still on.

What did someone on the forum say.
'Aminu always looks high in the first half, and plays better in the second because he comes down from that high?'

Yeah, hit the arrow in the top right. The 1st option should say something like "copy link to Tweet" (I don't know German).

He and Ingram probably rolled up before the game.

I actually thought of that, but I thought he had the pass right when it got to him. He may have not realized he had the time, and also after he took a dribble he may not have had it.
I really wasn't trying to criticize him there, it was just an observation that I thought the play was drawn up where he had Zach (i think it was Zach) open with an open lane to him.

I didn't infer it as a jab at CJ. Just made a general observation about CJ and passing in general.

 

[H.C.]

Feels like Portland had so many open shots go round and out.
Score could be a 15+ lead.

Portland make or miss tho that second unit needs to get back and build a wall in transition.

So glad college basketball is here. College football is just depressing this year.

Aint that the truth. I had pushed the duck game so far out of my mind, I forgot all about it until my father decided to start texting me about it lol.

They spanked the Chipster....like what the Blazers need to do to the Lakers.

 

[BonesJones]

Jokic has 7pts, 10rebs, and 16asts! Goddamn.

 

[crandc]

All they have to do is tie the second half.

Cristobal has to make the offense less predictable. Arroyo is not a great playcaller.

 

[Strenuus]

That was a goaltend.

Louis King and Will Richardson are out till Christmas. That isn't much better.
