Jazz @ Blazers! Last home game of the season, 4/18 - Game Thread!

[DaLincolnJones]

I really think Babs has a shot

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Kanter is only 19/20 -- He's going to fill out. Like a 6'11" Jahadi White.

 

[B-Roy]

Smith will stick around the NBA longer.

If by stick, you mean gone after next year, then I agree.

 

[Darkwebs]

When's the last time we got blown out in the home finale of the season? Oh boy.

5-14 . . . he has a shot, it just doesn't go in often.

yeah, Fez, you have a point. He has to prove he can play aginst guys his size still.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

This is eerily similar to the Ha/Telfair/Khryapa days.

body of work etc etc etc

he has had a bad night

Kanter will be a much better player than Jahadi White. WTF do you get the Jahadi White comparison anyways..

Ironic it is fan appreciation night . . . if Blazers really appreciated the fans, they wouldn't charge for this line up.

His build (potential) -- not his game.

Yea I know. I guess he had a good game last game (didn't see it). Just joking around on a night it's hard not to laugh at this.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Okay we just took two Jazz players out, now is the time for our epic comeback!

Here comes our run baby!

 

[DaLincolnJones]

damn I like that Babs can pass

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

This is tough to watch.

 

[The_Lillard_King]

Oh Babbit, don't pass on that 3

 

[DaLincolnJones]

who the fuck is that guy lol

 

[DaLincolnJones]

ahearn lol

 

[DaLincolnJones]

think they pulled him out of an urn and added water

 

[Nikolokolus]

Take heart guys. The Jazz are showing you how it's actually possible to quickly reload by taking advantage of New Jersey's impatience and stupidity.

 

[Darkwebs]

Babbitt showing some touch with the runner

 

[alex42083]

lol... nice.

Ben Golliver ‏ @blazersedge
Season Ticket Holder named Brenda just got a signed No. 1 Shawne Williams Blazers jersey. Brutal

Maybe Deron will come next year, wear 1 and Shawne will be gone.

Babbitt has a legitimate place in the NBA, and I think he's only going to get better. I can see a 6th man role for him on a title contending team at some point.

There, I said it. He has elite offensive skills that just need some more time to develop, and he's got an NBA body.

And he also has the nerve to try all his different moves; he isn't limiting himself. I think he actually wants to not just be a rotation player, but he wants to be a great player. Don't know if he ever will be, but I like it that he's trying to be.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Who is better Flynn or Smith?

I think Flynn is capable of being an NBA starter; he has the change of speed and body control, and he's starting to go for the rim more (Blazers need to show near the basket for him, he is always ready to dish off). And of course the great vision. However, he is not ready right now to be a starter or even a backup on a contending team. He needs to do a lot of work on his shooting and he needs a lot of playing time; his best option would be to find a place with a non-contending team that is on a total rebuild, where he could play at least 20 minutes every night.

Smith is not a PG; he did show tonight that when he is playing with a good distributor (Flynn) that he can be decent at SG.
