[beast blazer]

How the fuck do you commit 8 to in 14 minutes doing almost all 1 on 1

 

[VenomXL]

Blazers handing the game to Denver so far.

 

[B-Roy]

CJ…

 

[DDolla]

Turnover after Turnover

 

[AldoTrapani]

Well thank god Denver is completely unhealthy

 

[MadeFromDust]

Not going to last long without Dame

 

[EGame]

we definitely decided not to clean it up

 

[DDolla]

Zero defense and not getting calls

 

[AldoTrapani]

Fucking Porter Jr is not fair fuuuck

 

[JoshuaHall]

Cant play KANTER

 

[ehizzy3]

What the hell are we doing

 

[B-Roy]

Gotta shelve Melo Kanter.

 

[VenomXL]

Yeah this is no good. Blazers totally sloppy and not executing and the Nuggets are the total opposite.

 

[Haakzilla]

Not going to last long without Dame

...looks like Dame subbed himself back in already

 

[MadeFromDust]

One team came with fire and urgency and one team didn't and that is the difference so far

 

[BlazerBeav]

No whistles for Dame. It’s insane.

 

[illmatic99]

Terribly coached game by Terry so far.

You expected differently? We won game 1. Why change anything. Just use the same game plan without any counters. Hes satisfied with a split anyway

 

[VenomXL]

14-4 in the quarter. Fucking hell.

 

[Scalma]

Get Kanter outta here for fucks sake, put in another wing. And where’s CJ?

 

[Sheldon Shape]

What the hell are we doing

Playing Stotts ball. No defense. No ball movement. No easy baskets.

 

[blazerkor]

JaMychal Green fouls Dame on a drive, doesn't get called for it and the TNT PBP guy says, "well played by JaMychal Green." SMH

 

[Titan]

Might as well try some of the other bench guys. Nas, Jones, RHJ, other CJ and see if one of them might make a difference.

 

[Serbian]

Kanter is useless in this series too weak vs milsap or jokic to get any rebounds or score and total shit on defense. Don’t play kanter!!! Terrible!!! And refs mailed it home. Denver gotta win tonight we not getting any calls

 

[AldoTrapani]

They start playing defense with playoff intensity and our offense goes to complete shit. But some of you morons will yell about how our regular season offensive rating was good so this isnt actually happening.

Who cares man. There’s going to be major changes coming this off-season. We’ll get our wish

 

[Sheldon Shape]

Gotta shelve Melo Kanter.

Kanter for sure. I think Melo can exploit Porter all day but we haven't been going to him surprisingly.

 

[James lamphear]

We not handling the physical against us very well. The problem we don't have to many guys physical. CJ right stink up the court and Dame still trying draw fouls that they are not calling. Players have to adjust how the refs are calling just part of the game.

 

[PCmor7]

I don't know how you can come off such a good win and come out the very next game with a chance to really step on the Nuggets' throats and instead it's like you're content to win the one on the road and we're just going to give half-effort tonight.

Way to go. That's the mark of a pretender. Come out uncomposed get down big. Claw back. Immediately hand momentum back with the complacency of the Blazers when they were getting blown out by good teams in the middle of the season.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Fuck man now their going to show that logo shot all game even tho we’re getting killed

 

[EGame]

it is funny how kanter looks this series vs two years ago against the nuggets in the playoffs. He looks like utter shit whereas he was a warrior two years ago

 

[Scalma]

Their backup five is fucking Millsap, I think Nas can outrebound him at this stage.
