Game Thread PRESEASON GAME # 4: BLAZERS @ CLIPPERS - OCTOBER 13, 2016 - THURSDAY, 7:30 PM (PDT), TNT

[riverman]

Turner is having a bad bad night

Turner is overthinking everything....Gerald Henderson looked like that his first few games back last season...he'll bust the rust

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

The deep throating these announcers are doing on the Clippers almost makes me want to change the channel. I am resisting the urge to throw up my dinner. Its disgusting.

 

[Jade Falcon]

Turner spun into him.

He doesn't seem very good.

ET at pg isn't working so far

No he sure as fuck ain't.

 

[Chris Craig]

I bet Vonleh is called for travel in the second half ~

I wouldn't doubt it

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Looks like all Griffin picked up from working with KG was to goaltend the ball when the shot doesn't count

Yeah they are definately swallowers

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

I want more swishbankshot2s

I'm always rooting for Meyers, seriously.

He's a smart guy and can be an important weapon for us. But, it's fun to goof on that doof.

I hope so, cause he's turning the ball over like there's no tommorow

[illmatic99]

Turner's plus minus is not pretty

 

[rotary111]

Maybe Coach will try OUR secret lineup in the 3rd quarter.
1 Dame
2 CJ
3 SlyPokerDog
4 Aminu
5 Davis

Seems legit.

 

[illmatic99]

Actually worst is CJ at -25 in 16 mins

 

[riverman]

Where's El Prez with the live shots from the game? He's got good seats

 

[jlprk]

Man, do we have a lot of overrated players.

When Paul's under the basket, he makes a 5-foot pass and gets an assist. When Lillard's there, he misses an open layup, then gets knocked over. Chris Paul is 3 levels above Lillard.

I know it's just preseason, but for a guy who's gonna be riding the pine for the first 3rd of this season, he sucks. Really bad.

I get it, he's working on chemistry. I get that.

But for a guy who we plopped down $70M on, I expected a lot more. His dribbling is horrible too.

Are we going to see anything from Festus tonight?

Chris Paul has 4 pts on 2 for 7 shooting....I thought you were an accounting wizard!!!!!! Maybe I misunderstood the "level" translation

We won't see Festus for awhile

CP3 has owned Lillard his entire career. Nothing new.

Is tunchi here too?

 

[riverman]

We won't see Festus for awhile

 

[Tunchi]

Your right. They wouldn't. I'll admit it but it was good experience.

It was I'll give it that

 

[Jade Falcon]

I was afraid of that.

So in the mean time, we have to put up with a 7-1 SG who's always hurt and has no Paint Awareness, and an undersized Center who gets fouled out in the first half.

Good thing we addressed that need at Center with someone who can contribute. I mean....it's not like we spent $75M a piece on two bench players.

Oh wait.....

Well it's obvious you're not watching the game.

 

[The Professional Fan]

I'd like one of you smart people (researchers) to find out how many NBA players have fouled out before 2:00 left in the first half, preseason and/or regular season, all time.

Lillard looks much better in the box score than what he has contributed. He's made a lot of mistakes.

Is tunchi here too?

Pissy, for a rook you sure like to ride me.

 

[DUB]

At quarter time:

FG%
Us - 47.6%
Them - 34.8%

At half time it's:

FG%
Us - 39.5%
Them - 45.7%

FTM/A
Us - 10/13
Them - 14/20

Turnovers
Us - 14
Them - 7

Points in the paint
Us - 12
Them - 28

I'm not that bad!

Yeah him, Davis, and a sprinkle of Vonleh.

Greg Oden?

Bullshit.
