Game Thread PRESEASON GAME# 4: BLAZERS @ KINGS - OCTOBER 9, 2017- MONDAY, 7:00 PM (PST), NBATV & NBCSNW

[BigGameDamian]

Serious question though. How bad boy can you get in today's NBA?

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

Call me crazy, but when one of the most prolific Home Run hitters of the 90's is pitching me a "man enhancer" pill, you gotta try it, right?
(NBATV commercial about Nugenix)

You talking bout Frank Thomas? Saw him at the gym 6 months ago. Guy looks like a million bucks.

The big hurt!

 

[Rastapopoulos]

What are we to make of the fact that Connaughton played 10 and a half minutes in the first half, while Collins, Meyers and Morrow played zero?

 

[kjironman1]

Anybody got a score?

 

[BigGameDamian]

56-43 Blazers

 

[ripcityboy]

Nurk going to have a hard time this year. Gotta watch the fouls.

 

[BrianFromWA]

I think the staff may already know who Morrow is and what he can do, good or bad. Collins was said to be a DNP today, and without Shabazz there's much more of a need for a 3rd-team guard to step up and play than a 4th-team big.

I think we'll see Meyers, though.

 

[HailBlazers]

CJ can be such a ball hog sometimes.

 

[kjironman1]

Thank you. I am in Coos bay. Only place to watch the game is the casino and i ain't gonna drop that much money tonight.

Might depend on fouls? How many people in foul trouble?

 

[ripcityboy]

I wonder how much Pat will play once the season starts. Layman we won't see again during the regular season.

 

[LuckyShot]

WTF is going on?

 

[GrandJury]

Nurkic is nice

 

[Trackjack]

Not shooting well tonight but it happens then you got rely on your defense.

 

[ripcityboy]

Man I hate it when it when Calabro says cup. Like when some old hippy says "Don't flip out, man!"

 

[BrianFromWA]

damn, that little hesitation right as he's splitting the screen, where it looks like he's going to pull up for the 3 but blows right byt he closing defender, is going to get Dame a lot of FTs...

 

[HailBlazers]

Serious question though. How bad boy can you get in today's NBA?

Serious question though. Are you bringing the fire to wheels meet and greet?

 

[Mediocre Man]

So why isn't the new hope playing?

 

[ripcityboy]

They are doing the same thing. Good for Nurk.

 

[LuckyShot]

Nurk with the Euro soccer flop lol

 

[ripcityboy]

Yeah. We need to get another shooter.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Defenses will learn very quickly to play up on Nurk and let him drive.

 

[LuckyShot]

I've seen enough of Nurk attempting 3s. Knock it off.

 

[The Professional Fan]

Nurk pressing

 

[ripcityboy]

I've seen enough of Nurk attempting 3s. Knock it off.

Yeah. Let Turner have a shot.

 

[Jade Falcon]

Nurk is getting zero help in the paint on rebounds.

 

[BrianFromWA]

Nurk may need a blow right here...

 

[BigGameDamian]

Justin Jackson looks solid.

 

[BonesJones]

Defenses will learn very quickly to play up on Nurk and let him drive.

He's been very effective at driving and dishing. If that happens often Nurkic will learn how to attack it.
