[VenomXL]

Pass the ball make them work on defense.

 

[Haakzilla]

MeJ, another no pass early shot -- fuck off!

...and another one! This guy has the biggest blinders in the league!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I would have left RHJ out there for some hard fouls on Jokic.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Nurk coming in way to early with 4 fouls

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Can you imagine where we could be if RHJ had played all of Kanter's minutes today?

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I would have RHJ out there for some hard fouls on Jokic.

Yup.

 

[JoshuaHall]

Michael Porter Jr is so bad defensively it’s unbelievable. Dude will score 40 and give up 40

 

[VenomXL]

Nurk is going to foul out again.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Nurk coming in way to early with 4 fouls

Called it

 

[DDolla]

Melo please save us

 

[brooklynballer]

Pass the ball make them work on defense.

100% right. Portland’s iso style is so easy to defend - only one defender needs to be engaged.

 

[riverman]

MELO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[VenomXL]

MELO!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

M3LO!!!!!!!!!

TIED FUCKING GAME!

LETS GO BLAZERS!

 

[James lamphear]

Melo starting to hit up this quarter and hitting big shots.

 

[Dom McBlazer]

Nope, nuh-uh. You're not getting my hopes up.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

MELOOOOOO!!!!

 

[Scalma]

Take Nurk out put in Norman and attack Jokic. We need Nurk for later.

 

[Titan]

Stay melo, Melo

 

[brooklynballer]

Melo got the memo. Stop fucking going iso but instead wait for catch and shoot opportunities. Not rocket science to play to a player’s strengths.

 

[JoshuaHall]

Did they really double off of melo.. that’s Stotts level coaching, Mikey

 

[Phatguysrule]

Melo Melo Melo...

 

[42N8Bounce]

Blazers are shooting 26% from 3, and 42% overall, and they’re still in this game!

If we can just get a couple of plays to fall our way, we’ve got this game!

 

[wizenheimer]

Jordan Kent's voice is so toxic it's nauseating

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Melo needs those spot up threes , but that takes getting into the offense early and passing the ball.

 

[BlazerRx]

Momentum on our side now, lets keep it going!

 

[illmatic99]

Take Nurk out put in Norman and attack Jokic. We need Nurk for later.

id keep him out there. this time is too crucial. what if he ends up with 5 fouls and we sit him unnecessarily

 

[crandc]

After all that, a six minute 55 second game. Outscore them by one and I will be a happy cat.

 

[TBpup]

Close game favors the Blazers. Nuggets don't have their best offensive shot creator in Murray.

Take advantage!

 

[Darkwebs]

So far in the 4th, everything has come up Rose Garden for the Blazers
