[RipCityDSCPL]

GO

 

[B-Roy]

He's our leading scorer....

'

He's 5-13 with 4 turnovers and clogging up the lane for everyone else.

 

[Boise Blazer]

Alvin Gentry with a smart, very un-Stotts like timeout.

Exactly what I was thinking.

 

[LuckyShot]

Let's play some fucking defense. Stay focused. They're trying to get as many cheap ones in transition as possible.

 

[illmatic99]

CJ has 3 points. Wow.

 

[theprunetang]

Chili P deserves some credit in this game too.

 

[Lukee]

just don't hurry with shots and thoose 3s Dame. drive, get some FTs.

 

[BonesJones]

Pat Connaughton is a +13

He's been very solid tonight. Been better than CJ and Shabazz. His energy kept us from being down 20 the entire 4th.

 

[Cippy91]

They have time.

Oh no. Don't buy-in Bones. Your walls can't handle it.

I’m buying in on a comeback but am prepared to also be pissed off

 

[BonesJones]

We need to keep running. We're so much better improvising in transition than in the halfcourt right now.

 

[Natebishop3]

I mean... honestly it doesn't say much for NOP that we're only down by 9 and our two stars are playing like complete trash.

 

[BonesJones]

No defense.

 

[julius]

Such lazy defense.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Nope just being pessimistic per usual.

Am I?

 

[Strenuus]

Dame was fouled on that 2nd drive.

 

[Natebishop3]

I really wish we would have traded for Mirotic.

 

[BonesJones]

Dame cant buy a call.

 

[BlayZa]

pat-zach-ed

are the only reason we're even in with a look here.

 

[Cippy91]

Yup here we go. They gave me hope only to crash that shit real quick

 

[LuckyShot]

And just like that we piss it away.

 

[Strenuus]

*sigh*

 

[BonesJones]

Welp. We made our run.

 

[Rhal]

we can't let this lead get back into double digits. Answer them point for point for a few minutes.

 

[Boise Blazer]

Who is that #3 guy?

 

[Rhal]

and suddenly its 12 again. Well fuck.

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

Stotts is a fucking idiot.

Discuss.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Good Lord, AD just swallowed Lillard whole.

 

[BonesJones]

How does Lillard not have any FTs? Fucking refs.

 

[BonesJones]

Stotts is a fucking tard.

Discuss.

Yes.

 

[BlayZa]

you'd kinda think Dame could burn around AD in that mismatch....
