Game Thread PLAYOFFS - ROUND 2, GAME 5: BLAZERS @ WARRIORS - 5/11/16, WEDNESDAY, 7:30 PM (PDT), TNT

[VenomXL]

Solid first quarter.

 

[Chris Craig]

We got the first one...3 more of these!

Yes please !!

 

[Strenuus]

Roberts is shooting 20% but carry on.

Dude, he shoots 0.56 shots on 3 minutes a game in the playoffs.

Your hate posts can go to others.

 

[Chris Craig]

Mamas got no rings

 

[KingSpeed]

Has Gerald Henderson ever made a 3 in his NBA career? Serious question

He shot a career high 35% this year.

This is a game thread, chief. Get a grip. I'm far from a hater.

 

[BonesJones]

I don't get the logic of Olshey on him...

We needed a big, we got Valejo (whatever his name is). Instead, we cut him and picked up Roberts..........then put him on the fucking bench for half the season. And now he sucks because he's had zero playing time outside of garbage time.

I'll never understand that trade. Never.

Because we wouldn't been paying Varejao $10M next year, and Roberts is expiring.

 

[Jon]

So, i have an idea....

The steph curry drinking game. Anytime the announcers jock steph curry, you take a shot. Anyone?

 

[B-Roy]

Henderson's shooting a better 3pt% than Aminu these playoffs

Aminu is taking 7 a game at 39%

 

[Jade Falcon]

We were given a free 2nd round pick to take Roberts on. We had no picks in our cupboard for years to come and we were restocking the bare cupboard is one reason.

So why did we cut Big V? Now he's on the Warriors and killing it.

And for the record: I'm ignorant about trades and FA. I don't follow them whatsoever in basketball.

Appreciate the feedback.

Mhm. Uh-huh. Right.

 

[crandc]

Someone forgot to tell the Blazers they are done.

So don't hate what you don't know? If you didn't know what we got in the trade, how do you know the true value of what one is?

With 6 3-pointers tonight, Portland’s Threes for Trees Program has now seeded 10,000 trees thanks to @DaimlerTrucksNA and @FriendsofTrees

 

[riverman]

Ed is money at the line!

 

[Jade Falcon]

Because we wouldn't been paying Varejao $10M next year, and Roberts is expiring.

I see. Yeah, alright, $10M is a lot for one guy.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Kerr sounds like he is just winging this coaching thing. The players are carrying him not the other way around.

 

[riverman]

Bench mob! Big Ed is beastin' tonight!

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Someone forgot to tell the Blazers they are done.

Right? Keep pounding!

 

[KingSpeed]

This reminds me of 2000 WCF games 5 thru 6.8. We're just better.

 

[Strenuus]

Keep it up, guys!!

 

[BigGameDamian]

Top 10 sho

He shot a career high 35% this year.

Good stat

 

[KeepOnRollin]

PLEASE re-sign Mo Harkless! I bet he won't even ask for a lot of money.

 

[Strenuus]

Right? Keep pounding!

Deja Vu for when I was with Ms. HCP last night.

 

[B-Roy]

Lmao 6.8

 

[riverman]

The Blazers get that a lot!

 

[Haakzilla]

Love. This. Team.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

I see. Yeah, alright, $10M is a lot for one guy.

Neil engineered all his moves to offer a full MAX contract to someone with all the cap holds in place this summer with a dollar to spare.

 

[Strenuus]

Good stat

Those two didn't go together.
