Socked em in the mouth!

 

[Tince]

he took his anti-aminu’s and decided he didn’t want to be harkless.

Now THAT is good!

 

[Almir]

Great win! I expected a win after 3rd quarter. Lakers are poor shooting team... I want more in this series... really want more!

 

[ehizzy3]

Do we have a dame dancing gif yet?

 

[kjironman1]

CJ sure was a driving force tonight. Huge game.

 

[Portland2014]

When it's due it's due: WHITESIDE WAS HUGE LATE IN THE GAME!!!

 

[Cugel]

hassan was huge down that stretch man. huge blocks.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Wish we could keep Nurk and Hassan beyond this season. Their games can overlap but they can bring different things to the flow of any game.

 

[Scalma]

So much for Whiteside and Nurk not working lmao

 

[speeds]

Lakers took 97 shots and 31 free throws to get 93 points.

 

[noknobs]

FUCK YES! Three more

 

[Chris Craig]

And that was a bad shooting night from us...on a good night the Lakers are blown out

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Now THAT is good!

you set that up like Dame setting up himself for a logo shot, brah!

 

[HailBlazers]

Chuck

"Take that with your punk ass skip bayless!"

 

[Minstrel]

Awesome win. There's just nothing better in basketball than beating the Lakers. Beating this much-hyped edition in the first round would be the next best thing to a title--better than reaching the WCF last year even if they lose in the second round.

 

[kjironman1]

They played their hearts out and worked really hard but honestly the Blazers could have hit more shots. Same thing can be said for the Lakers but we all know if the Blazers were hitting the open three this game would have been over.

 

[42N8Bounce]

Oh yeah!

Lillard's 34 points leads red-hot Blazers to upset of top seed Lakers in Game 1


"Lillard long 3 is up, and in! Come on!"

Dame Time!

 

[maxiep]

He wanted to be traded to us when he was in the NBA

And he used to hate us for it. Now he loves us.

 

[kjironman1]

Still gotta get three more wins. This series is long from over. Stotts won game one but lets see how the adjustments pan out.

 

[HailBlazers]

Fewest points in a Blazer win all season.

 

[Tince]

Fewest points in a Blazer win ALL SEASON?!?

 

[B-Roy]

This team is so clutch

 

[illmatic99]

They literally have no playmakers outside of lebron

 

[kjironman1]

Enjoy the win everyone!
Gonna sleep well.

Go Blazers!

 

[riverman]

It was time for a dance party thread....I started one

 

[Darkwebs]

Lol. Kenny Smith is high on Zach. Said Collins can possibly our 3rd best player in the near future.

 

[illmatic99]

This team is so clutch

dame wildin out in the middle of a defensive possession after dropping a 36 foot three in Davis' grill up by three is just sooooooo fucking chill. Dripping with confidence.

 

[Strenuus]

 

[illmatic99]

Enjoy the win everyone!
Gonna sleep well.

Go Blazers!

you kidding me? I can't sleep after that game

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

We had five less rebounds, seven more turnovers, but ended up shooting a decent 38% from three and hit 25 free throws.
