GAME THREAD: BLAZERS @ ROCKETS - 1/20/2014, MONDAY, 5:00 PM (PST), TNT

My Goodness, they've scored on every possession. Defense must start soon.

8/9.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

too soon.

Really? I'll save it and try again next year.

 

[Strenuus]

What the heck? The game started already? I just got home from work. Thought I was gonna make tipoff

I wouldn't doubt it's to get it over quicker for the Indiana game. Start it late if it's east coast, start it early if it's west coast.

8/9.

He said every possession. I think they missed but still got the Orebound and made it.

 

[illmatic99]

Might need to start playing D

 

[Natebishop3]

I would slap the shit out of Beverly's hand. I'm dirty.

 

[BrianFromWA]

He said every possession. I think they missed but still got the Orebound and made it.

they made a 3.

 

[VenomXL]

Good Lord.

 

[Strenuus]

He said every possession. I think they missed but still got the Orebound and made it.

Ah. Makes sense.

 

[Natebishop3]

So we're missing everything and they're hitting everything. That's not a good recipe for success.

 

[KingSpeed]

We're getting blitzed

 

[Darkwebs]

Wow, our D is atrocious.

 

[Strenuus]

Eww. 23 points in 4 minutes? lol.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Beverley will get into the all star game before any of us at this rate.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Wow. We're getting run out of the gym here...

 

[illmatic99]

Is Lamarcus gonna even try to get inside?

Trail Blazers PR ‏@TrailBlazersPR

LaMarcus Aldridge's first field goal tonight is his 400th this season, most in the NBA.

 

[TBpup]

Damian's personal nemesis Patrick Beverly back just in time to play the Blazers....and rocking it early.

The early game defensive woes continue.

 

[VenomXL]

Fucking ridiculous.

 

[Strenuus]

Did the Blazers know the game started or are they just watching Houston do lay up drills?

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Parsons owns us.

 

[Natebishop3]

Jump shot, jump shot, jump shot, jump shot, three pointer, jump shot, jump shot, jump shot, three pointer.......

Someone drive?

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Also we ALWAYS play like shit after we blow out an opponent.

 

[KingSpeed]

Barkley kills us when we win. Ouch, what will he say tonight?

 

[Strenuus]

They Missed! :MARIS61:

 

[BrianFromWA]

the dude with a broken hand who hasn't played in a month is 2/2 from 3.

Hey...they missed!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Hopefully this is the Blazers version of the Rope A Dope.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

What! A defensive stop?

Oh, just a prelude to a turnover...

 

[Natebishop3]

Finally!

 

[Strenuus]

Lillard 3!
