Game Thread NBA PLAY-IN - SPURS @ PELICANS - APRIL 13, 2022 - WEDNESDAY - 6:30 PM (PDT) ESPN

[AldoTrapani]

As a player I never enjoyed him. I said it a lot.

Go ahead. Flame away at me.

Oh we know

 

[Idog1976]

Do. Not. Leave. Alvarado. Open!

 

[AldoTrapani]

Wow I’m so glad the clippers lost. They will smack the pelicans at home

 

[Idog1976]

Or we could just pull up video of him in Game 5 at Denver, when his 'brother' just needed the slightest of help from his max contract partner, and instead got nothing.

Short term memory. These people are the definition of why propaganda works on so many people. Short-term memory, current event, narrative driven.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

CJ gonna drop 50

 

[AldoTrapani]

Wow we got nobody for Cj lmao

 

[Chris Craig]

Fucking CJ

 

[BigGameDamian]

Not looking good folks!

 

[HailBlazers]

Herb

 

[LayneStaley]

This isn’t looking good, if we don’t get that Pels pick we better win the fucking lottery. Still don’t think they beat LA Friday.

 

[illmatic99]

And people want to continue trusting this idiot to make the moves in one of the most important summers in franchise history

 

[HailBlazers]

CJ "cold blooded jumper" McCollum

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Doesn't it seem like CJ has gained a lot of confidence after being released from Dame's shadow? There is something tragic about this for Blazer fans....

 

[Idog1976]

So can someone please explain to me why we didn't get the LA pick and/or NO protections on their pick WTF? I never thought CJ was bad and I never thought he was worth the pathetic haul we got (don't forget we sent a very serviceable Nance as well). Also, you know CJ it don't matter if NO gets in the Playoffs ya'll gonna get stomped, but it's absolutely MASSIVE for Portland. Would have been nice to see this level of effort last year during Game 5 you jackass!

 

[illmatic99]

27 in the half.

Fuck this shit

LOL - did you think he lacked confidence here?

 

[Freshtown]

Do we think Joe gets fired if the pick doesn’t convey, or is our management complacent enough to let it ride into next year?

 

[calvin natt]

You can’t make this up. Too bad for Blazers but love it for CJ. And Cronin has to feel like shit watching this. Lol

 

[B-Roy]

There's not much inherently different with CJ's game in NO vs Portland. He's just making more shots now.

Cause Cronin doesn't know what he was doing. Should have got Jones and that Lakers pick.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Blazers loose the pick.

It doesn't convey, he gone.

And if SA wins this game , you don't make this post.
Oh, how fragile "logic" can be.

 

[Idog1976]

27 in the half.

Fuck this shit

Of course CJ can also go ice cold but shoot at the same rate. Here's hoping. Where the FUCK was this effort in game 5 last year? Also, we should have demanded Jones for this version of CJ AND a pick AND Hart.

 

[LayneStaley]

They are playing the Spurs, I don’t think the Pels are world beaters or anything. Probably a nice win tonight and then a blowout loss in LA. Clips gotta be pissed off right now.

 

[blazerkor]

Pop needs to make adjustments at halftime but 11 points is by no means insurmountable.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Seems like a different kind in NO, kind that conveys to the entire team.

 

[LayneStaley]

Also does losing the Pels pick stop us from trading for Grant?? Maybe that Bucks 2025 pick will be better lol.

 

[blazedanugz]

Lol the pelicans have more talent than the spurs and they’re playing at home..it’s been relatively close. If they pull it out, they’re not beating the clippers in LA

 

[Hoopguru]

He’s the leader the Pels have been missing.
And he’s one of those guys that can take over a game.
