Game Thread PLAYOFFS: ROUND 1, GAME 1: PELICANS @ BLAZERS - APRIL 14, 2018, SATURDAY, 7:30 PM PDT, ESPN & NBCSNW

[TBpup]

We're not prepared to react to Dame being doubled. A big problem is that our offense doesn't involve passing except from the guard on pick and roll, so the team is not prepared and experienced to be able to pass and find the open man.

STOTTS

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

We can’t hang with their pace

If we're not prepared for that we are asinine.

 

[B-Roy]

Evan Turner is unplayable but Stotts will keep playing him.

 

[rotary111]

I need a nap.

 

[KingSpeed]

How are we 3rd seed again?

Because we played well mid Feb to mid March.

 

[theprunetang]

Choke J McCollum

 

[HailBlazers]

I'm depressed.

Get ahold of yourself man.

 

[julius]

This team always peaks at the wrong time.

 

[The Professional Fan]

Both sides of the court they’ve looked superior

This is insanely disturbing

 

[KingSpeed]

CJ, Aminu, and Dame have hit threes this quarter but we're still a mess.

 

[illmatic99]

give back those MVP votes, dame

 

[BonesJones]

Get ahold of yourself man.

Shut up.

 

[SportsAndWhine]

Oh look it’s the annual Shitting of the Beds.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Evan Turner is unplayable but Stotts will keep playing him.

He's our leading scorer....

 

[Jade Falcon]

Same ol' shit that everyone figured out long ago: shut down Dame and force the rest of the team to beat you.

It works. And Stotts has never had an answer for it.

 

[DUB]

put in meyers

Quoting it so you can't take it back.

 

[dviss1]

NO ONE IS TAKING IT TO THE RACK!!!!!

 

[Sedatedfork]

When should I give up on this game?

 

[BonesJones]

He's our leading scorer....

And he's also our leader in turnovers.

 

[Strenuus]

CJ, Aminu, and Dame have hit threes this quarter but we're still a mess.

Unfortunately, Mirotic has matched that all by himself.

 

[trailblazer18]

This is tough. Can we cut it to 10 going into the 4th.

 

[Boise Blazer]

It's going to be even more depressing when we make a late run that just isn't quite enough.

 

[HailBlazers]

Shut up.

Love you

 

[illmatic99]

Rondo has 5 more assists than our entire team

 

[BonesJones]

NO ONE IS TAKING IT TO THE RACK!!!!!

This is the problem I have most. We rely too much on jumpers falling. It's a Stotts thing.

 

[julius]

At least Ed Davis is earning a contract for next year.

 

[AFully22]

It’s so strange how contagious poor shooting is with this team. Always seems like everybody goes cold at once.

 

[Cippy91]

Great chance to earn two points here and holy fuck no Ed Davis is the one at the line...

 

[BonesJones]

Why doesn't the corner guy ever DIVE? There's a lane there, and they're wide open since their defender is helping all the way over. When shots aren't falling, dive baseline from the corner.
