Game Thread PLAYOFFS: ROUND 1, GAME 1: BLAZERS @ LAKERS - AUGUST 18, 2020, TUESDAY, 6:00, TNT & NBCSNW

[Natebishop3]

he's got 25 points?

And they changed how they’re defending him. They have taken him out of the game. I’m not talking about the first quarter.

 

[Tince]

Stotts has gone almost completely away from involving Nurk on offense in this second half.

What a huge mistake. He gets us easy baskets. SMH...

He just posted up 3 possessions ago.

 

[Natebishop3]

Can you imagine if we ever got the calls that Davis is getting?

 

[Chris Craig]

So they have completely taken Dame out of the game.

Dame time is coming

 

[Sheldon Shape]

He just posted up 3 possessions ago.

Yup, that's it. They went to him much more frequently in the first quarter.

 

[HailBlazers]

He just posted up 3 possessions ago.

Had to back down himself from the three point line. Not ideal.

 

[DameLill379]

The blazers are just forcing it a bit on offense & it’s giving them too much ground to make up on the other end

 

[illmatic99]

lmao OMG Lebron made a bounce pass. Slobbering over the guy. He's gonna get his points in the fourth!

 

[Natebishop3]

Just think about how much more entertaining this would be if they called this game like they used to call the playoffs?

 

[speeds]

Blazers are doing great! Let's go!

 

[Tince]

Double techs, double fouls, jump balls on out-of-bounds. This is stuff you see from 7th grade B team refs. Just make the tough, right, call.

 

[Strenuus]

Good god, shut the fuck up Webber.

 

[Natebishop3]

So first it was clearly off Davis and they called a jump ball. Then we win the jump and they give it to LA. THIS SHIT IS RIGGED.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Lillard taking a lot of ineffiecnt mid range shots with a hand in his face

 

[Natebishop3]

This is literally the most boring game I have ever seen.

 

[Strenuus]

MELO nice pass!

 

[Tince]

Lillard deserving of a couple of hockey assists.

 

[Labinot41]

Ugly ass game

 

[Strenuus]

Melo doing it all.

 

[illmatic99]

Jaylen Hoard can't be more useless than Hezonja, right?

 

[Dom McBlazer]

Look at Mario. Durr, durr, durr. Nice fucking awareness!

 

[B-Roy]

Defensive slug fest. Who would have thought.

 

[illmatic99]

So first it was clearly off Davis and they called a jump ball. Then we win the jump and they give it to LA. THIS SHIT IS RIGGED.

lmao exactly what i thought.

 

[illmatic99]

announcers are openly mocking portland players. am i the only one hearing this?

 

[AldoTrapani]

Not sure why Lillard taking dumb mid rangers with a hand in his face. He never does that shit

 

[Labinot41]

Mario with his head in the fucking clouds. Jesus christ

 

[PHXBlazer1]

We’re battling not backing down let’s go

 

[Strenuus]

Mario, just think ofi t like a damn question mark and jump to get that damn ball. BE AWARE.

This is why I like Luigi.

 

[James lamphear]

It would help if CJ and Dame be hot at the same time. The referees are to involve in this game by calling some soft fouls especially against us.

 

[Labinot41]

Not sure why Lillard taking dumb mid rangers with a hand in his face. He never does that shit

Yeah he's been taking some stupid shots tonight
