GAME THREAD: HAWKS @ BLAZERS - MARCH 5TH, 2014 - WEDNESDAY, 7:30 PM (PST), CSNNW

My god this game is boring.

I believe that is playing a role in how loud/into the game the crowd appears.

 

[Strenuus]

My god this game is boring.

And to think, if we sucked, this would have been the only game the nation would have seen....

 

[BlazerCaravan]

is it just me or and/or the LMA rust? but our offense looks better w/o him

We've mostly faced smaller teams lately... I think it's good timing.

 

[julius]

For real. I was one of those that was like "DAMNIT, Withey!!!" .... now, I don't even know if Withey is getting any burn.

I bet he's either out of the league in 2 years, or a 5-6 year journeyman center who never amounts to jack shit.

 

[KingSpeed]

Why are they playing the Oregon Ducks fight song?

Nicolas Batum is 7th NBA player this year with 3 straight 15+ rebound games (D. Jordan, D. Howard, K. Love, A. Bogut, A. Drummond, J. Noah).

Nicolas Batum is the 5th Trail Blazer since 1985 to record 3 straight games of 15+ rebounds (J. Hickson, M. Camby, B. Grant, K. Carr).

Nicolas Batum has tied his career high with 16 rebounds, set just two games ago on March 1 vs. Denver.

A worse version of Meyers?

To think, we could have had Meyers AND Withey.... Oh my god.

 

[LuckyShot]

5 players scoring in double digits, LaMarcus ain't one of them. Weird.

In other words, the only non PF/C. Nice.

Nicolas Batum is the 35th NBA player with 18+ rebounds in a game this year. Portland has four of them (Aldridge, Lopez, Robinson, Batum).

 

[julius]

ah...it's about time ESPN sucked up to the Portland fans/read the talking points about Portland.

 

[KingSpeed]

WIthey is averaging 2 pts, 2 rbs, and .5 blocks in 9 minutes which isn't all that bad. 7 footers tend to last longer if they stay healthy. Look at Collins.

 

[Darkwebs]

Our scoring has been so evenly distributed. 6 players with double figure scoring and none over 14.

 

[Strenuus]

Now he's one of 6.

 

[Blazinaway]

LMA 1 for 10, come on on man, get it goin

 

[LuckyShot]

I love CJ's offensive game

 

[B-Roy]

The retarded announcer is calling CJ "McCallum"

 

[LuckyShot]

LMA 1 for 10, come on on man, get it goin

He has not looked comfortable on any of his shots. Just chucking it because he thinks he should.

 

[Darkwebs]

Strong move to finish that layup by CJ!

 

[Strenuus]

Oi. Here comes the KoChuck fest.

 

[blue32]

Mcaaaaallluuum

Did you see that video where the commentator called Batum "Bait-em"?

 

[blue32]

Yup the dude looks hesitant as hell for some reason

agree, he's gettin fouled goin inside, he should keep doin that when his shot is for shit as it is tonite

 

[B-Roy]

I have not. I don't doubt it exists though.

 

[julius]

Oooh, Road to Shambala. One of my favorite songs.

 

[Strenuus]

Yup the dude looks hesitant as hell for some reason

So... "The dude DOESN'T abide?"

 

[Strenuus]

I have not. I don't doubt it exists though.

haha. It was on one of the nba.com highlight vids for one of the more recent games... (within the last week). It was posted on here.
