Game Thread PLAYOFFS: ROUND 1, GAME 2: THUNDER @ BLAZERS - APRIL 16, 2019, TUESDAY, 7:30 PM, TNT & NBCSNW (2 Viewers)

[EGame]

We just need anything from the bench in the 2nd half. Please, just some contribution.

hoods been a little disappointing. has had some good looks just not hitting them. I dont expect much from Turner or Leonard so we needs Hood, Curry and Collins to come up big.

 

[kjironman1]

18-8 in favor of the Thunder bench. If we can fix that, I think we win.

Have to fix that.

 

[KingSpeed]

Great to see Dame excelling in a playoff series.

 

[Lukee]

We are holding them 28 from the 3 point line.

yet they say Thunder can't shoot that bad again lol

 

[H.C.]

If OKC is having success attacking Kanter early I wouldnt mind subbing Collins in early. Hes been good on both ends.

I want a Collins/Aminu/Harkless front court.
Collins can catch the ball tonight so play him with Kanter in foul trouble.
Aminu needs more minutes also. He'll help Collins with the rebounding more than anyone else.
Which is mainly why I want Aminu in there because Portland struggled to secure the board after Collins protected the rim.
3 on Aminu is an issue tho. in b4 he picks up his 4th on the first possession of the 3rd quarter.

Never play evan turnover again in this series !!!!

 

[beast blazer]

We only got 8 points off the bench not good enough for us to win this game.

It's actually the total number of points in an entire team makes in a game vs. The other team that determines the outcome of the game

 

[kjironman1]

It’s weird Turner should have been just dominating Felton? Why he didn’t is crazy? If he would have they could have run it over and over again.

 

[James lamphear]

When you have Zach leading our bench in scoring in a guard type offensive then the guards are not stepping up.

 

[LuckyShot]

I watched Paul George grab his shoulder three different times. He is in obvious pain but I’m not sure all the time. Seems like he moves wrong and grimaces grabs it then works it lose again. Just a non educated look at it?

It only hurts when he misses. Pansy.

Turner owes someone money. He's point shaving.

Yes but look at the refs, he would foul out before the 4th quarter lmao

 

[riverman]

I expect Dame and Enes to have big second half numbers..Zach, Rodney and Seth need to put some pts up

depends how enes' hand is. I hope he didnt fracture it.

 

[illmatic99]

Have to fix that.

run some plays for seth

 

[LuckyShot]

depends how enes' hand is. I hope he didnt fracture it.

That would be just our luck.

 

[kjironman1]

They certainly made sure PG13 didn't pick up his 3rd foul that half.

Blazers should run right at him. The Thunder are protecting him. They are not making him defend the way they usually do.

OKC got a ton of steals ...so many bench possessions without even getting a shot up

 

[James lamphear]

Turner needs to make is move quicker because Noel coming back for the block. Or Zach stay out inside out back to Zach for a shot.

 

[James lamphear]

I give it to Zach not backing down from Morris even it did cause him a T.

 

[riverman]

depends how enes' hand is. I hope he didnt fracture it.

His free throws were both money after the fall

 

[Labinot41]

The bench played with Evan garbage turnover. I cant blame them.

 

[julius]

I remember going to Blazer games (in the MC) where I had to yell next to my father for him to hear me. And it wasn't because he was hard of hearing.

 

[santeesioux]

 

[kjironman1]

Kanter is on the floor. Starting

 

[crandc]

Let's be first team to go up 2-0. Do it, guys!

 

[H.C.]

All Turner has to do is face up.
Whats Felton going to do lol.

 

[julius]

Oh dear god, that picture of Jodi Allen (or Jody?) looks like Paul Allen with a wig and makeup.

 

[riverman]

Good to hear

 

[James lamphear]

4 on Kanter
