GAME THREAD: BLAZERS @ THUNDER - DECEMBER 23, 2014 - TUESDAY, 5:00 PM (PST), CSN

Scott Brooks isn't the best coach in the league, you guys.

 

[EGame]

greg anthonys list is just plain retarded. Kyle Lowry and especially Mike Conley are not better than Lillard at all. Kyrie arguments are there, but his teams never amounted to anything until LBJ showed up this year.

Stotts out coached him

Yeah, telling RW to brick the first FT was poor strategy. That coaching miscue gave us an opening. I just go with schonely on that one...

 

[riverman]

Did we lose? I turned the game off

yeah..it was a massacre

I knew I was jinxing the team by watching OKC broadcast. I changed the channel and listened to wheels

 

[noknobs]

Lillard is unreal in crunch time. Seriously. Un-fucking-real.

And props to Aldridge for gutting it out, he clearly wasn't near 100%.

100% this

Live by Westbrook, die by Westbrook. I love when he's playing hero ball because they usually lose against good competition.

 

[EGame]

so guys I gotta ask. Is Dame the more clutch player or is it B-Roy still at this moment? This is a discussion now right?

No disrespect to Brandon, but he's not even in the same conversation as Dame when it comes to clutch shots. Like I said, that's not a knock on B-Roy, it's just how insanely clutch Lillard is and continues to be. His stats in overtime are absurd.

Entice him to run himself ragged for three quarters, then FINISH HIM!

BRoy was the most clutch Blazer ever.

WAS.

Now, it's LILLARD TIME!

Clips Mavs, Nuggets lost and Warriors are losing

If we had Conley or Harrison "FUCKING" Barnes instead, we would not need late game heroics.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

If we had Conley or Harrison "FUCKING" Barnes instead, we would not need late game heroics.

Because we'd be losing by 8?

 

[julius]

Damian seems to be turning into what Kobe Bryant used to be (minus the creepy aspect).

If the game is close, and he's in the game, no matter how he's shot he's a threat to win it.

 

[Sean.ivity]

#Lillardtime trending on twitter, "Y'all know what time it is" lol.

Ohhhhhh from the crowd was epic!

 

[Hey]

I think Kobe is a lot more clutch than the statistics might leave some to believe, but Dame's stats in the clutch is ridiculous right now (especially FG%). I wonder if there's ever been a two-season sample that has been as good as this from any player in the history of the NBA. If there's been someone better, I'd genuinely like to find out.

 

[noknobs]

The Rainbroz pour in a respectable 13 three pointers tonight.

 

[PDXFonz]

The blazers currently hold the largest division lead in the NBA at 9 1/2 games.

 

[riverman]

Half the population of Oklahoma is at that game, the other half are at the stock yards

 

[riverman]

Kobe is sitting out tonight and the Lakers are beating the Warriors without him

 

[riverman]

It was up and down for the first 3 qtrs, then we sort of stepped on their throats and finished them off....Chris Kaman after an earlier game.

 

[PDXFonz]

NBATV is waiting until the kids go to bed to show the highlights from this game.
