GAME THREAD: BLAZERS @ MAVERICKS - 1/18/2014, SATURDAY, 5:30 PM (PST), KGW

[MickZagger]

CJ is who we thought he was.

 

[Blazer Fanatic]

Dallas playing zone. Blazer need to make them pay from behind the arc.

TREX SMASH!

 

[Strenuus]

T rob with the jam! ha. I'm bouncing around my house. For some reason, I'm jacked for this game.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

TROB SMASH

 

[Darkwebs]

CJ is slowly becoming our best bench player

 

[MickZagger]

Were playing like the best team in the NBA.

 

[Strenuus]

Dallas playing zone. Blazer need to make them pay from behind the arc.

TREX SMASH!

They did. CJ hit the 3.

SGOTF.

 

[PapaG]

The Blazers have an advantage over Dallas at every position. It they end up losing this game, it will because of a lack of focus.

 

[LuckyShot]

If CJ can score like this consistently, we're going to be TOUGH.

And didn't TRob take like 3 steps on that dunk? I'm watching a delayed, fuzzy stream...

 

[Darkwebs]

SGOTF.

Lillard and CJ will be a killer combo.

 

[Strenuus]

That shirt looks stupid.

 

[Strenuus]

OH SHIT! Mo to TROB!

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Trob smash repeat

 

[Blazer Fanatic]

SWEET steal and drop pass!

TREX SMASH!!!

 

[Strenuus]

Freeland beautiful pass.

 

[Strenuus]

That was an anticipitory foul, for sure.

 

[Strenuus]

Great run for CJ.

 

[Blazer Fanatic]

I can't say enough about how the Blazers carry themselves as a team, on the court. No whining, no bush league non-basketball fouls... they play the game as intended and win despite teams that do that kind of crap.

 

[PapaG]

Ellis lowered his shoulder. That's a bad call.

 

[Strenuus]

So, okay, Blazers, lower the shoulder... you'll get the call too.

 

[Blazer Fanatic]

... mop... mop please.

 

[PapaG]

HOW WAS THAT NOT A GOALTEND???

 

[Blazer Fanatic]

GOAL TEND... wow

 

[LuckyShot]

What did Freeland do wrong?

 

[Strenuus]

Freeland man board!

 

[Blazer Fanatic]

BRITISH BULL DOG!!

 

[PapaG]

I don't want any trades for this team. See how this year goes in the playoffs, and address needs in the offseason.

 

[PapaG]

Bennett Salvatore is on a mission to keep Dallas in this game.

 

[Blazer Fanatic]

So, okay, Blazers, lower the shoulder... you'll get the call too.

uhm... about that...
