[EGame]

oh also fuck the refs trash ass bitches

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

why does Lillard have to be the guy trying to stop a rampaging Gordon?

 

[VenomXL]

Huge answer by Denver. His team really fucked him in the last two minutes.

 

[Dom McBlazer]

With this defense, we deserve to lose.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Feel bad for dame man... terrible ending just absolutely bad bad ending

 

[Hoopguru]

Jokic is MVP!

 

[B-Roy]

Dames teammates are fucking awful.

 

[illmatic99]

fun game. but terry. for godsakes, run a play

 

[Titan]

Play well and get close, then give up 8 straight points. Come on man

 

[MadeFromDust]

What a waste of that hot stretch with stupid basketball to finish the half.

 

[blazerkor]

If you don't understand why CJ has to be traded for a second option that actually compliments Dame at this point... I just don't know what to tell you.

 

[VenomXL]

CJ and Norm have got to show up in the second half.

 

[DDolla]

When CJ is hot, Dame urge him to go and shoot. But when Dame is hot, CJ still need to get his… smh

 

[ehizzy3]

Cj is gonna need a good second half. Powell too. They’ve been invisible except for fouls and turnovers

 

[MickZagger]

I love Lillard.

but the heaving the ball up and expecting a foul call particularly in a playoff game is one of my biggest pet peeves. You should never expect a foul, especially on a well defended 3 pointer on the ROAD. Long caroms, easy fast breaks.

 

[illmatic99]

ball is swung, they closeout hard, melo has an opening for an entry pass to nurk who had his man sealed.

and he chucks a contested shot instead of giving it up.

that shit CANNOT happen

 

[AldoTrapani]

Feel bad for Dame man wasted his fucking career playoff half

 

[illmatic99]

those are obvious fouls

If only we had a GM who has the balls to do it.

 

[HailBlazers]

Melo when you got Nurk posted deep on the block, feed the damn beast

 

[PHXBlazer1]

They’re shooting 66% lol..I won’t be surprised when we win this game by double digits again

 

[Chris Craig]

Blazers got this

 

[AldoTrapani]

He gets super happy when a Dame is on fire so he tries to replicate that

 

[AldoTrapani]

Blazers got this

With what defense??

 

[blazerkor]

I love Lillard.

He makes too high of a percentage of those leaning in and off balance to really be mad at them.

 

[MickZagger]

those are obvious fouls

That one to end the quarter was not and led to an easy fast break

 

[Serbian]

Dame in god mode and CJ doesn’t pass and bricked it. But we got no defense in paint. Put little

 

[Ripcity4life77]

Dame has only missed like 1 shot in the last 5 min but let's let Melo shoot a bad shot and not run the ball through Dame. This must have been called by the great Stotts so the game went from portland down by a handful to down by double digits not even Dame can prevent Stotts from screwing this up.

I like Stotts and i think he was the right man for the job but the last year or 2 i think he has shown that without Dame he is avg at best.

 

[Chris Craig]

Feel bad for Dame man wasted his fucking career playoff half

He didn't waste anything

 

[MadeFromDust]

The funniest part of the quarter was when CJ threw a pass 5 feet over Dame's head and then turned around to complain to the ref
