GAME THREAD: BLAZERS @ NUGGETS - FEB. 25, 2014, TUESDAY, 6:00 PM (PST), CSNNW

[LuckyShot]

Survived with only 1 big man.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

Well, a win is a win.

 

[jlprk]

Claver in. My 2nd-favorite player last year!

 

[VenomXL]

Two wins in Denver. Never thought I'd see that. They NEVER won in the Pepsi Center.

 

[KingSpeed]

We have no PF or C on the floor.

 

[BlazerBeav]

1 center and no power forwards, but pulled it out.

 

[Natebishop3]

So he didn't shoot very well in the second half, but Dame is currently averaging 30.5 ppg with LA out.

 

[VenomXL]

T-Rob's status is a concern. Can't have four injured big men.

 

[KingSpeed]

Great win. 3 in a row. Now bring back LaMarcus and make it 4 tomorrow.

 

[Rhal]

Okay now i'll post it

The end was as pretty as a 2 cent hooker on 82nd street but i'll take the win regardless. THREE GAME WIN STREAK YAH!

 

[LuckyShot]

WTF... 3 straight games holding opponents under 100? They may not have been the highest caliber opponents, but for us that's an accomplishment even with our full starting lineup.

 

[jlprk]

Lillard ties Kyrie for Big Assister of the Night at 9. 7 at halftime, so he should have taken home the trophy unmolested.

 

[LuckyShot]

40 before 20?

 

[maxiep]

Not a pretty win, but I'll take it.

Portland now has 11 wins against the Northwest Division (11-3). No other NBA team has more than nine wins within its own division.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Any crash landing you can walk away from...

 

[maxiep]

And for the record, Marlowe and Hastings (the Thuggets' TV team) are fucking unlistenable. It ruined the game for me.

 

[noknobs]

Blazers just shot under 37% and got out-rebounded by 23 and won.

Thanks Denver.

 

[jlprk]

Hickson asks, "Are there moral victories? Look at this bod...you could have had it for only 5 mill."

Go Blazers! We won. Another long game thread.

 

[oldmangrouch]

40 before 20?

In the last few weeks, that goal has gone from looking inevitable, to looking impossible, back to plausible.

 

[oldmangrouch]

Any crash landing you can walk away from...

A win uglier than Terry's jacket?

 

[Natebishop3]

Blazers are 3-1 with LA.

Obviously he's been the problem all along. Too many jumpers

 

[HailBlazers]

Lopez with 7 blocks, that's what I'm talking about!

 

[Rhal]

And for the record, Marlowe and Hastings (the Thuggets' TV team) are fucking unlistenable. It ruined the game for me.

So many of the NBA's TV teams are just god awful. I don't even listen to Mike and Mike anymore I turn Wheels on for the game and sync it up to whatever stream i'm watching, makes the games 1000x more enjoyable.

Damian Lillard (twice), Clyde Drexler (twice) and Terry Porter are only Trail Blazers with 31 pts, 7 reb, 9 ast and 4 3-PT in a game.

LA has played in more than 4 games FAMS.

 

[B-Roy]

So he didn't shoot very well in the second half, but Dame is currently averaging 30.5 ppg with LA out.

Raw percentages are bad but his TS% is well above league average.

 

[KingSpeed]

Blazers are 3-1 withOUT LA.

Obviously he's been the problem all along. Too many jumpers

We probably would've gone 4-0 with LA. We would've beaten SA.

True Dat.

I'm willing to bet Lillard has a few more of those.
