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

Well it ended ugly but it was a solid win...I hope Victor Claver and Allen Crabbe suit up next game.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Hahaha. Can't even inbound the fucking ball

 

[Buffalo Blazer]

Ok, they need to keep a 16-point lead in 44 seconds. Biting my nails.

 

[MickZagger]

How could we play Watson? You can't play 13 guys.

Watson's dressed.

 

[OneLifeToLive]

He went too deep. Should have kept a starter or two in until the 6 min mark.

But I have to believe he was just trying to develop the bench.

 

[Natebishop3]

Dallas with 41 in this quarter.....

 

[julius]

oh for the love of Clinton Wheeler....this 5 sucks

 

[illmatic99]

WTF Leonard. You aren't an NBA player

 

[LuckyShot]

Seriously. Just send Meyers to Boise directly from Dallas.

 

[Strenuus]

Man. Luckily those 5 never play all the time. The REAL team was there for 3 quarters. Remember that.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

We probably could have lost if that unit played the entire 4th. Unbelievable

 

[Wheels]

House Money!

 

[illmatic99]

That's cruel.

Am I wrong?

 

[TheBlueDoggy]

It's like the monsters from space jam stole our bench's "talent"!

 

[illmatic99]

Seriously. Just send Meyers to Boise directly from Dallas.

Or back to Illinois

 

[Blazer Fanatic]

Probably one where someone like Nate starts a thread wanting to upgrade the bench and you come back just stating our record, as if no improvements anywhere are needed.

Not an accurate representation of my argument. He was critical of Mo. And my argument was that you can't get another PG for Mo at a room exception.

 

[Natebishop3]

Who fouls there? Wow...

 

[Strenuus]

Meyers couldn't even inbound the ball to wide open players.

 

[KingSpeed]

Watson's dressed.

But how can he play?? We already played 12 guys. Count!

 

[RoyToy]

Buyout Leonar_'s contract and send his ass packing

 

[santeesioux]

Oh well, a win is a win.

 

[Natebishop3]

WTF Leonard. You aren't an NBA player

He has NBA talent..... but a NBDL head.

 

[Darkwebs]

BEST IN THE WEST!

 

[KingSpeed]

Starters, mo, Free, Bartob, CJ, TRob, Meyers, Wright.

We couldn't play Watson.

 

[Natebishop3]

But how can he play?? We already played 12 guys. Count!

Eric...... we're talking about going back to when Stotts first put in the bench and playing Earl instead of Will.

 

[Strenuus]

Our 3rd unit almost lost 2/3rds of our lead. This isn't on our REAL core of players. This was our most complete game.

 

[LuckyShot]

Meyers couldn't even inbound the ball to wide open players.

Can't you run the baseline on made baskets? He just stood there looking confused.

 

[Blazer Fanatic]

He went too deep. Should have kept a starter or two in until the 6 min mark.

But I have to believe he was just trying to develop the bench.

Ya. I'm just thankful we can blow out a team like Dallas and even have the opportunity to do so. Shows them what they need to work on a bit more. Wake up call if you will. And keeps the guys hungry knowing they will play and need to play better.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

Am I wrong?

Of course you are.

 

[Strenuus]

Still a blow out. Great win!
