Game Thread PLAYOFFS: ROUND 1, GAME 3: BLAZERS @ PELICANS - APRIL 19, 2018, THURSDAY, 6PM PDT, NBATV & NBCSNW (1 Viewer)

[LuckyShot]

Half of their defense is reaching and swatting for every dribble we make, yet we get whistled the second we reach for anything.

 

[Drttimmy]

CJ can be a maddeningly hot and cold player, but he is an impressive iso player. He's got more shots in his tool bag than anyone on the team.

 

[Nikolokolus]

The Blazers' look like they know New Orleans is physically gonna dominate them on every possession. They look like a Bantam Weight fighter trying to move up two divisions.

 

[Strenuus]

Well.... Change is always good. I welcome it.

 

[Cippy91]

Please explain how having Mirotic would help us? He'd just be another big we couldn't play against the Pelicans because he can't guard Davis.

I believe mirotic has shown you the last three games how he would help us. Look how dude is playing

 

[Blazinaway]

so SICK of Dame 28-30 footers, so sick

 

[chris_in_pdx]

A G-League fucking team, this is. Wow. I am speechless.

ISO players don’t win... this isn’t the 90’s

 

[Dom McBlazer]

Well hopefully this is a wake-up call for the next game and beyond...

 

[kjironman1]

I saw this last year. The exact same look on CJs face when he quit.
CJ pretty much just decided this series is over.

 

[ripcityboy]

Somebody is getting fihahahahaiiired.

 

[Darkwebs]

Nice of the Blazers to honor Evan Turner by committing a bunch of turnovers tonight

 

[LuckyShot]

Still setting ball screens with Ed fucking Davis 35 feet from the rim. Stotts doesn't learn shit.

Hes got a beta mindset.

You mean Dame? Dame quit mid way through the first quarter tonight.

 

[Jason W Strickland]

How is that not over the back?

 

[chris_in_pdx]

Dame quit when his kid was born.

Yeah, never been a fan of that myself. Roy was fun as hell to watch, but it still wasnt winning basketball.

 

[kjironman1]

Nope I mean CJ. He did the exact same thing about 7 mins into game four against the warriors

 

[DDolla]

Since No Lillard Time in the Playoffs, Pels Win by a blowout then Blazers Win game 4

Called it.... we got game 4 lol

Way to avoid my question.

 

[LuckyShot]

Ah, I see the trick now. Just throw up your arms every time you get caught fouling and maybe the refs will start to second guess their calls and you'll get away with hacking more.

 

[Hobbesarable]

First 3 quarters of pain makes me think of this.

 

[Strenuus]

I say just sweep us. Dont give the blazers brass more money by getting a game 5. Make them make changes.

 

[kjironman1]

Bring in the seconds and see if they can spark a run.

 

[KingSpeed]

Our guards have finally found the touch but our defense horrible not helped by our 20 turnovers.

 

[Portland2014]

Way to avoid my question.

He would have helped us by not being on the Pelicans roster lol

Or how about a boycott and no one shows up for Game 5?

There won't be a game 5
