Minnesota needed this one. Their season is pretty much over now.

Season over!

TRob 6-12 FG

I think all 6 misses were jumpers

Agreed. I don't remember being excited since the beginning of the month during a game.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Robinson gonna be a stud. Let's keep him.

 

[BBert]

Suns were beating the Rockets, but the Rockets have outscored them 17-7 in the fourth to tie it at 100. Damn. We need the Suns to win that game.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

Yeah- a standing ovation!

 

[Strenuus]

TRob 6-12 FG

I think all 6 misses were jumpers

50% is bad. Bench him!

Ok.

 

[B-Roy]

TRob 6-12 FG

I think all 6 misses were jumpers

So...second coming of Aldridge? Or blah blah....

 

[PapaG]

Robinson gonna be a stud. Let's keep him.

He's the Blazers for at least two more year on his rookie contract.

 

[RoyToy]

50% is bad. Bench him!

His jumper certainly needs to improve

So do you still not understand why we traded a second round pick for him? That's where this started.

Doesn't matter. You said you didn't know why we traded a second round pick for him. Do you know now?

 

[Hobbesarable]

Two second round picks and the rights to a couple of players.

[PapaG]

So...second coming of Aldridge? Or blah blah....

Until I get a BrianfromWA breakdown on shot charts, it doesn't matter. Does BrianfromWA still post here?

Such an annoying team.
