BLAZERS' GAME NOTES ​

 

[Rhal]

We keep sucking but your threads keep delivering. Great job Darkwebs

We keep sucking but your threads keep delivering. Great job Darkwebs

Thanks

This game is a must-lose. It'll be tough though since it's a home game, but can the Blazers dig deep and somehow find a way to drop this one?
If we lose this last game, hopefully Philly and Toronto win their last games, giving us the 10th pick.

 

[Darkwebs]

If we lose this game, we will tie the Blazer record for most consecutive losses at 13, which was set back in 1972. Will a chance at the 10th pick be worth it? Time will tell.

I can't remember why the Blazers lost 13 in a row because well... i'm not that old but were sucking for a draft pick not because we suck now so I personally won't care if we tie the record or not.

 

[KingSpeed]

Must lose this game.

Most likely not going to be a problem, GS needs this game. Thanks for the cool threads.

 

[SheedSoNasty]

We are going to get our teeth kicked in. GS owns us.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

We are going to get our teeth kicked in. GS owns us.

With 7 guys they own us. We're doomed!

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Does GS have any motivation to win this game? Apologies, as I won't be keeping track. I hope the Blazers put up a good game, or Dame drops 40+ or something. Sheesh. I actually have fairly good seats to this game.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Any truth that HCP is the starting Center tonight?

And that we loaned Boston and Indiana Elliott Williams and Nolan Smith for their games against Toronto and Philly?

 

[santeesioux]

Must lose game, so the Blazers will probably win somehow.

 

[THE HCP]

The Ws win this game they play Denver right........ a loss it's San Antonio? I think they will play to win this motherfucker!

 

[Run BJM]

If GS loses AND Houston wins, then they drop to the 7th seed.

I think GS will come to play. Mark Jackson has been adamant that the team hasn't proven enough to take any games off. The team still has accomplished nothing and I'm sure they've got plenty of motivation to avoid SA and try to get a beat up Nugz team, not to mention just motivation in itself to achieve the highest seed possible.

Curry also going for the 3 pt record tonight. Its possible that it affects his game and/or the team's game, but he absolutely loves the big stage and when he comes into a game with intensity (see: @ NYK, @ LAL) hes usually great. Its the meaningless games against the non-descript teams where hes passive.

 

[Boise Blazer]

Im all for the loss but I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to see Dame absolutely go off for 50 to give the dumbass Davis ROY voters once more reason to look stupid.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Im all for the loss but I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to see Dame absolutely go off for 50 to give the dumbass Davis ROY voters once more reason to look stupid.

I would rather see him go off for 20 assists.

 

[Boise Blazer]

I would rather see him go off for 20 assists.

I can live with that but I have my doubts that the rest of the team can make 20 shots .... yikes

 

[Boise Blazer]

I just checked the numbers and Dame only needs 46 assists tonight to jump up to 7 apg. Come on Dame!!!!

 

[BlazerCaravan]

I just checked the numbers and Dame only needs 46 assists tonight to jump up to 7 apg. Come on Dame!!!!

If we shoot 100%, he'll get 90!

 

[Boise Blazer]

If we shoot 100%, he'll get 90!

It was worth it. We got LaRue Martin.

 

[BlazerBeav]

We are going to get our teeth kicked in. GS owns us.

118-88 in Portland's favor all-time. GS owns no one.

 

[jlprk]

Climb on board, new Warrior fans! Get in on the ground floor. This team is up-and-coming.

 

[Blazinaway]

Must lose this game.

yep, especially as Raps and Sixers are ahead so far

 

[Mediocre Man]

Why in the fuck is Aldridge playing tonight? Seriously, what the hell?

 

[Blazinaway]

Why in the fuck is Aldridge playing tonight? Seriously, what the hell?

That's BS if true, if Raps and Sixes win sit his AZZ

 

[Darkwebs]

Why in the fuck is Aldridge playing tonight? Seriously, what the hell?

Dammit. This is not what we need right now

 

[jlprk]

Good news! A loss is certain!

 

[Darkwebs]

After this game, Lillard will be the total minutes leader of the NBA this season. That's quite impressive for a rookie.

 

[BBert]

After this game, Lillard will be the total minutes leader of the NBA this season. That's quite impressive for a rookie.

But he's not rookie of the year. Apparently, he should have cherry picked a small number of minutes to inflate his per minute statistics. Since that's all that matters.
