Game Thread PLAYOFFS: ROUND 1, GAME 5: BLAZERS @ GRIZZLIES - 4/29/15, WEDNESDAY, 6:30 PM (PST), TNT & KGW

[Sinobas]

You can't build around him. StatBo 2.0

But even Randolph is a much better player.

 

[3RA1N1AC]

Pressure their pgs for fucks sake, if they can't force nick calethes into bad plays then what the actual fuck

 

[MAS RipCity]

I just don't know if we can pull it out ... Our team looks like a cluster fuck with the starters out there and Meyers and CJ can't play the entire second half. Arron, Robin, Chris, Nico, Steve, and LaMarcus must get buckets.

 

[KingSpeed]

You can't build around him. StatBo 2.0

StatBo is up 3-1 in playoffs right now. How is that a criticism?

 

[Rhal]

Courtney Lee is shooting .68% from 2 and 60% from 3 against us this series. Thats not counting this game. Thats just fucken absurd.

 

[Sinobas]

And Nic Batum will be making 12 million per year next year. I'd rather have Dorell Wright in there right now.

 

[3RA1N1AC]

Cavs blew it trading for love in the first place. Fuck them.

 

[Duvalier]

And Nic Batum will be making 12 million per year next year. I'd rather have Dorell Wright in there right now.

Batum's a joke at that price.

Zbo isn't the one killing us if you've noticed. Gasol, Conley, Lee and their scrubs are the killers.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Robin Lopez has been so bad this series. It's shocking how bad.

 

[HailBlazers]

Seems like he has checked out. Wonder if that is any indication of his intentions?

GTFO, honestly, free agency is far from LMA's mind.

The only thing going through his mind his how bad he's sucked and how fucking bad the team needs him to win this game.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

And Nic Batum will be making 12 million per year next year. I'd rather have Dorell Wright in there right now.

At least with Batum you know he will make up for his mistakes somehow. I hope it is on the defensive end.

 

[blue9]

Who would have thought rolo and Aldridge would be such a disadvantage

[raises hand]

 

[KingSpeed]

We only have 3 assists. CJ and Dame have none.

 

[LuckyShot]

Courtney Lee is shooting .68% from 2 and 60% from 3 against us this series. Thats not counting this game. Thats just fucken absurd.

Then next series he'll promptly shit the bed and shoot 17%.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

If we make our open shots in the second half we'll win

 

[Sinobas]

At least with Batum you know he will make up for his mistakes somehow. I hope it is on the defensive end.

It's a bit myth that he's a good defender, Lee is lighting him up this series. He has contributed nothing but suckage.

 

[LuckyShot]

We only have 3 assists. CJ and Dame have none.

Part of the problem is no one can make a jumper to save their lives, and we only take jumpers unless CJ or Dame drives to the rim.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

We only have 3 assists. CJ and Dame have none.

Dame has dished out some good passes. No one is hitting.

 

[MAS RipCity]

We only have 3 assists. CJ and Dame have none.

Who else besides CJ and Dame are hitting shots though?

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Serious question here... Who has ever heard of a dislocated shoulder taking 4-6 months to recover from?

 

[Sinobas]

How we would love to be able to spends Batum's money on someone else! I hope we can sign and trade LA and package Batum with him.

 

[Sinobas]

Serious question here... Who has ever heard of a dislocated shoulder taking 4-6 months to recover from?

He's got damaged ligaments

 

[craigehlo]

Lillard, CJ and Meyers all have cheap contracts next season. Don't resign LA or Rolo and trade Batum. That's massive cap space that doesn't paint us in the corner. We can build via free agency and trades. This team will be 100% more fun to watch.

 

[H.C.]

Pretty disappointed with the effort the Blazer team is showing tonight.
Rebounding is all about effort. 10 offensive rebounds in a quarter.
Everyone who plays needs to show more effort. Not just one player.

 

[Rhal]

Serious question here... Who has ever heard of a dislocated shoulder taking 4-6 months to recover from?

Wasn't just a dislocate, he tore something in the shoulder.

 

[Boise Blazer]

We haven't move the ball around like we did earlier in the year in a long time. So the shots the we do get are a much lower percentage

 

[KingSpeed]

I'm worried. Are we going to win this?

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

He's got damaged ligaments

Ohhhhh okay that makes more sense. I thought it was just a pop it back in situation.

 

[Sinobas]

I'd like to see a forum poll of how many want us to resign LA to the max (to keep, not to trade).
