Game Thread PLAYOFFS: ROUND 1, GAME 5: BLAZERS @ NUGGETS - JUNE 1, 2021 - TUESDAY, 6:00, NBATV & NBCSNW

[Chris Craig]

Lack of awareness or his just generally shitty play? How Olshey signed this fucker to a $30M contract is beyond belief.

Paying a $15 million player $30 million

 

[e_blazer]

Jokic was getting fouled every time he touched the ball. He was bleeding from 3 different places on his arm. Can't be to upset with the refs.

And you actually see that as only going one way?

 

[Scalma]

One more loss in the Stotts era god bless

 

[wizenheimer]

Sell the farm and every pick for the next decade to pair Dame with a second star.

I can't believe this franchise.

it will never while Olshey is GM because that moron believes CJ is that 2nd star

 

[Chris Craig]

What pisses me off is that we spent the whole season helping Melo, that we never developed the rest of the bench unit. It’s not like we were the #1 seed the whole time. Could have used more depth tonight, just look at Denver, they had a bunch of guys they could call on for help. That is the difference.

That Denver fan was right. Melo is shit

 

[AldoTrapani]

dame was pointing to the fans that he's coming back for game 7

Who cares. This team ain’t doing shit next round anyways.

 

[B-Roy]

Maybe it's better we lose this game with Jody in attendance. She can see what is wrong with this team:

ie. Everything but Lillard. Tear down the core.

 

[bobf]

Well shit that was painful.

 

[ehizzy3]

Dame is gonna need to push his hand for Jody to make some changes

 

[MadeFromDust]

That is breathtaking. Looking forward to the postgame pressers.

 

[Cugel]

I am fucking pissed off. How did the rest of the team do nothing in OTs, plural! Pathetic. Fuck me.

 

[brooklynballer]

Paying a $15 million player $30 million

Even $15M is too much. He’s no better than Lou Williams and should be paid commensurately - so $8M/yr

 

[BBert]

I’m sorry guys denver is just the better team lol

short fucking handed too lol

Can you stop? Please?

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Man dame playoff numbers for his career starting to look bad. Other than the Houston and Okc series he’s been pretty mehh for his career

Uh huh.

 

[Natebishop3]

Why the fuck was anyone but Dame shooting?

 

[AldoTrapani]

Uh huh.

Add this series

 

[blazerkor]

Dame is gonna need to push his hand for Jody to make some changes

Dame's not doing that. Chris McGowan needs to wake up, fire Neil and get a GM in here that can build a roster around Dame. Despite CJ's contract being terrible for us, there are teams like the Knicks that would take it gladly. Things can be done and we can build a winner around Dame with what we have but Olshey isn't the guy to do it.

 

[Chris Craig]

That is breathtaking. Looking forward to the postgame pressers.

And it doesn't matter. It's a loss

 

[AldoTrapani]

Honestly Powell never makes any big shots since he been a Blazer. Fuck him too

 

[EGame]

Why the fuck was anyone but Dame shooting?

CJ felt left out and wanted to chime in with his horrendous shot selection. Also you have Dame spoon feeding people like Covington wide open dunks but he doesn't know how to make a shot with under 2 minutes left in the game.

 

[AldoTrapani]

And it doesn't matter. It's a loss

Yup regardless blazers wouldn’t do shit next series anyways. Dame can’t beat nba playoffs teams by himself

 

[beast blazer]

Adam silver better figure out a way to let Damian move on to the 2nd round and leave the rest of these blazer bums behind. They dont deserve to wear the same uniform. All night, missing dunks missing wide open shots...

 

[Chris Craig]

Stotts should have called timeout after that rebound with 17 secs left then CJ stepped out of bounds because he has to dribble all pretty and shit.

 

[TBpup]

What pisses me off is that we spent the whole season helping Melo, that we never developed the rest of the bench unit. It’s not like we were the #1 seed the whole time. Could have used more depth tonight, just look at Denver, they had a bunch of guys they could call on for help. That is the difference.

So much this.

But then the 2-3 minute runs that Stotts would give someone like Little don't exactly help develop a player.

 

[beast blazer]

Cj mcollum has always been a choker

 

[MadeFromDust]

And it doesn't matter. It's a loss

I just want to hear what they have to say for themselves, out of morbid curiosity.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

OMG, I didn't realize it was that bad.

 

[AldoTrapani]

EXACTLY THIS! Denver isn’t even healthy and it takes super nova dame just to stay in it with them..

Make some major changes this summer please

 

[jonnyboy]

I bet CJ shows up next two games.

 

[bobf]

Seriously WTF was Zach thinking.

He overslept, came in his PJs, and Stotts loaned him his coat.
