It’s an overreaction to talk about a former Blazer going absolutely bonkers in a game where the Blazers need his team to lose? Seems pretty newsworthy.

Oh, not at all.
If only that were the case.
I am referring to the "burying of the Blazers future" because of it.

Maybe you forgot that this NO pick is prolly our second most valuable trade asset for this summer

 

[illmatic99]

great, now we have to become clipper fans.

ugh

No more than you forgot the Pelicans still need to go to LA and beat the pissed off Clippers before any of your doom and gloom can happen..
It's funny..
Life very rarely works the way we all think it should.
So much hope on this "pick" that it's like no other positive scenario could possibly happen this summer/next season.
And we are watching a play-in play-in game.

 

[Natebishop3]

Trader Slow Cronin sure looks to have busted on this one.

ugh

At least they don’t have Pat Bev anymore.

 

[BlazerBeav]

I'm not sure what people were expecting of this Spurs team - had we not shut down Nurk and Ant, we'd have finished ahead of them. There's not much here. The Clippers, however, are bringing some talent into the next game.

 

[Idog1976]

Jones is impressive.

Which one Herb?

 

[OneSport3]

You do realize that the Pelicans still have to play the Clippers in LA on Friday right?

[BlazerBeav]

George looked pretty good in the playoffs last year.

i hate that we don't control our destiny

And most likely the Clips absolutely roll New Orleans.
(assuming NO wins this game)

 

[BlazerBeav]

I get that, but 10 days ago, the Clippers beat the Pelicans by 19.

 

[illmatic99]

come on now

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

C'mon Pels, time to choke up.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Gee, who could have foreseen CJ following up his 27-point first half with..........5 in the second.

 

[illmatic99]

instead of the MIL pick in 25, if our interim GM got the LA pick (even a top 5 protected one), as a contingency, i woulda been fine with that deal.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Is it bad that I had completely forgotten that Josh Richardson was even on the Spurs?

 

[Labinot41]

Cmon pels put a Monster choke job please

 

[illmatic99]

Gee, who could have foreseen CJ following up his 27-point first half with..........5 in the second.

he was passing the ball more cuz they're shading him with doubles.

but haters gonna hate i suppose.

 

[illmatic99]

how come we never unearth guys like jones?

 

[Wade Garrett]

he was passing the ball more cuz they're shading him with doubles.

but haters gonna hate i suppose.

Joe Cronin on line one.

 

[BlazerBeav]

he was passing the ball more cuz they're shading him with doubles.

but haters gonna hate i suppose.

Uh, yep last two possessions here in crunch time - missed jumper and a charge...

 

[illmatic99]

Uh, yep last two possessions here in crunch time - missed jumper and a charger....

[BlazerBeav]

Murray missing layups is stunting the comeback.

 

[MickZagger]

Murray shooting them right out of this game.

 

[illmatic99]
