Game Thread PLAYOFFS: ROUND 1, GAME 4: LAKERS @ BLAZERS - AUGUST 24, 2020 - MONDAY, 6:00, TNT & NBCSNW

[OneSport3]

Take a drink when Stotts waits for a 10-0 run to call a TO. He wasn’t able to recognize the offense was struggling.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

this team is a fraud.

shoulda been phoenix

Phoenix had their chance. Didn't play hard enough. Oh wait.

 

[AldoTrapani]

But In all fairness. Zack Collins is out...

 

[Strenuus]

We'll be rested for 2nd half comeback since we're not expending any energy now.

lmao post of the thread so far.

 

[A$AP Meyers]

Imagine thinking Ariza and Collins changes anything. We haven’t gotten quality looks all series. Lakers are a team that actually plays defense and we’re a roster built around two small guards.

 

[Tince]

Why aren't we starting our 6'9", 3&D wings? We don't even play those types of guys!

 

[illmatic99]

seriously, why does everyone else see this lineup not working but not our idiotic coach

Exactly

 

[Strenuus]

I like how it's a "home" game for Portland but it's pretty much an LA crowd.


Good deal. I know it's for Kobe, but come on.

 

[AldoTrapani]

This is why I didn’t want to make the playoffs. This is embarrassing but I’m the one who gets criticized

 

[Tince]

0-2 from the FT line... why doesn't our coach practice working on FTs in practice?

 

[Darkwebs]

Lakers wearing the Black Mamba jerseys to honor Kobe.

Blazers scoring zero to honor Lillard.

 

[Strenuus]

ITS NOT A SHUT OUT.

 

[illmatic99]

TAKE WHITESIDE OUT

 

[B-Roy]

Nice lineup Terry.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Damn Nurk hates dunking so much on a breakaway dunk he lays it up lmao

 

[calvin natt]

Is this real

 

[Chris Craig]

Anthony Davis is a bitch

 

[LayneStaley]

This lineup is so bad.

 

[Strenuus]

Stotts should get fired for that lineup.

 

[illmatic99]

Anthony Davis is a bitch

what does that make whiteside

 

[Tince]

Is this real

I was trying to get in front of someone else saying it lol

 

[GhostOfPGA]

How was that not a foul!

 

[BlazerBeav]

No foul?!

 

[julius]

On the plus side, only 1 more game with Whiteside on the team.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Lakers are making us look silly.

 

[Tince]

We get two nice 2 on 1 opportunities, open 3's, and can't convert.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Man Nurk needs to make that the first time he’s so soft offensively

 

[Dom McBlazer]

why is this team so shit. I look at miami's team for example, no stars apart from butler, just a really good deep team full of guys who can score and play d, i wish dame had that kind of roster

Spolestra is a superior coach compared to Stotts.

 

[Strenuus]

This is why I didn’t want to make the playoffs. This is embarrassing but I’m the one who gets criticized

If we dont make the playoffs and lose, maybe nothing changes?
