Game Thread PLAYOFFS: ROUND 1, GAME 3: LAKERS @ BLAZERS - AUGUST 22, 2020 - SATURDAY, 5:30, ABC

[Serbian]

I want nurkic gone total trash

 

[BlazerBeav]

Our shooting has abandoned us.

 

[ehizzy3]

Take nurk out he’s a liability right now on defense and the boards

 

[Titan]

That’s the game

 

[AldoTrapani]

Lakers are not impressive

 

[Serbian]

I want this half this team gone. Nurkic hezonja simmons zach all trash total trash

 

[VenomXL]

I think this series is over. It’s been a fun ride and I’m glad we got that first one but there’s too many factors at play that work in the Lakers favor.

I’m not sure they’re a championship team though.

 

[illmatic99]

Take nurk out he’s a liability right now on defense and the boards

Who will you replace him with? We're missing four guys

 

[MadeFromDust]

This game/series is so winnable, there's just something wrong with this team...

 

[twobullz]

Played team ball in the during the play in games, now back to hero ball.

 

[beast blazer]

Think if we didn't get such garbage performamces from guys like simons and nurk.

 

[Labinot41]

Nurkic is, totaly trash. Sorry he completely sucks

 

[OneSport3]

This game/series is so winnable, there's just something wrong with this team...

Lack of coaching

 

[AldoTrapani]

Dame shouldn’t have danced on them game 1 it’s been blowout losses since

 

[Titan]

Blocked 3 times in a row, they have no gas

 

[SlyPokerDog]

At least we get free chicken McNuggies!

 

[ehizzy3]

We have been dominated about 10-11 of the 12 quarters so far

 

[James lamphear]

Olshey need set down and really hard on this team. I don't want to here if we wasn't injury we be right there. But has to look for depth for this just in case we do have injuries.

 

[illmatic99]

Challenging that? Foh

 

[BlazerBeav]

We have been dominated about 10-11 of the 12 quarters so far

we led almost the entire first game and the whole first half today...

 

[Tince]

Olshey got rid of harkless, aminu, kanter, curry, layman, and meyers. he replaced those guys with whiteside, mario, bazemore, tolliver, and jaylen hord.

That appears to be hurting us.

 

[ehizzy3]

Who will you replace him with? We're missing four guys

whiteside would do better right now.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

What if we had Caruso (an undrafted player) instead of Simons?

 

[Serbian]

Anyone think nurkic is corner piece? He stinks!!! Absolute trash just like stots. I never seen worst finishing around rim

 

[Titan]

Ok LA now going to challenge and rub it in, this game is over let it be

 

[Chris Craig]

Challenging that? Foh

Just to be assholes

Very lakers like

 

[Buffalo Custard]

A decent contribution from either Nurk or Whiteside and the Blazers would have had a chance. Two 7' guys shrinking to yard gnome size on the big stage!

 

[Haakzilla]

NBA will get their wish with LA vs LA in the WCF -- blow it up!

 

[AldoTrapani]

I think this series is over. It’s been a fun ride and I’m glad we got that first one but there’s too many factors at play that work in the Lakers favor.

I’m not sure they’re a championship team though.

Lakers suck they are lucky they are facing us

Nurkic is gone right now. His grandma died. It's too much for him
