GAME THREAD: BLAZERS @ NETS - 11/18/13, MONDAY, 4:30 PM (PST)

Welcome to our community

Be a part of something great, join today!

I love T Rob's ability to use his left hand in attacking the basket
 
Are the picks that the Nets sent BOS unprotected? Holy shit
 
You guys can thank me for this win. I didn't get home till halftime and we were behind by 7. I watch the second half and we win by double digits :pimp:
 
Best part from my POV was the 25 off the bench on 12/25 shooting, not amazing shooting but such a change from last year. We give up 40 in the 1st qtr last year and even though the starters could keep it close that would have turned into a 20pt halftime deficit last season instead of only being down 7. And I loved what Trob was doing out there, very productive in limited minutes and really looked good early in the 4th qtr. We actually grew the lead with LMA on the bench, letting Stotts give LMA alittle extra rest before coming in to finish. Again, so different from last year.

totally agree with you, these guys have that "It" factor going. We mow appreciate what it is like to have a great bench as well as starters that work together
 
Best broadcast in nba hands down and it ain't close.

Nets are excellent. Ian Eagle doesn't do a good job.... But a great job!!! Mikes need to take a listen.
 
I must say one thing..... This blazer team has amazing chemistry. Denny must be drooling.
 
Great post over in the Nets RealGM game thread:

"Portland's shooting is like kicking the ball to an ocean and hoping it hits water."
 
Not sure if it was mentioned, hadn't read through the game thread, but one big thing I've noticed a lot from LMA this season....in years past, he'd catch the ball, and his defender would, say, fall down, get bumped, whatever. He'd wait for the action to come to him so he could make his move. Quite a few times tonight, as well as this season, I saw his man not right in front of him and, instead of thinking hey, open jump shot, ok, he went towards the basket. Not just a he was open, but like his guy got totally picked, fell, switched poorly, whatever. He ALWAYS used to seem to wait for the guy to come to him, maybe feeling better with that body on him(in the post) or would immediately pop the jumper(outside). Loved that aggressive style from him, and hey, it resulted in 9 FTs tonight.

Garnett provokes many players to try to do what they usually don't because they can't. Aldridge looked awkward driving to the basket, and fouled as often as he got fouled.

He rarely had anyone set a decent pick for him in previous years.

The look of fear.
 
Too bad the score is there.....it would be better without it.
 
The production level on this nets broadcast is just off the charts.Switch over if you have the choice on LPBB

They do have an amazing broadcast. Quality content. The room I work in our the truck contains 2 people......I am not lying......The YES NBA shows have 6! With that many people its IMPOSSIBLE to not have a great show.
 
Tat arena is super dope and looks like a spaceship!

Kidd doesn't look like he knows what he's doing. He just sits there while Lawrence Frank runs the show. The Rushke owner is an idiot for that hire.
 
Just watched the replay, great win.

Wow, I've never seen a team get ass-fucked by refs like we do and I already knew we won so I was as biased as normal, just watching in disbelief at many of the calls.

Loved the energy from Freeland and TRob, and the relentless effort from LMA to withstand the hot start by Garnett and eventually wear him down and punk their whole front line.
 
Portland is doing what they are supposed to do and beating teams they should, so absolute kudos to them.

I hope they can do it against good teams as well.

You saw the San Antonio game right?
