Game Thread PRESEASON GAME# 4: BLAZERS @ NUGGETS - DECEMBER 18, 2020 - FRIDAY, 6:00, NBCSNW

[Rastapopoulos]

At this point, not signing a backup PG is a sign of some kind of mental illness. There must be thousands out there who can run a team better than any player other than Dame on our roster. What are we trying to prove?

 

[Rastapopoulos]

I predict a 40+ point blowout by the Nuggets. Even if they play their third stringers, right now that includes Campazzo, who is capable of embarrassing us on his own.

 

[BonesJones]

WOULDN'T IT BE NICE TO HAVE A BACKUP PG ABOUT NOW

No.

 

[Labinot41]

Remember CJ always plays better without Dame, but actually you don't want CJ to be your best player on your team

 

[Blazinaway]

Hey guys I have not heard any news on Little, has anyone heard anything beyond the Covid possibility a few weeks ago? when he might be back?

 

[THE HCP]

CJ will run the point and have 28/9......other guys like Trent need to step up.

 

[B-Roy]

Is Dame hurt or is this rest? Seems odd they would rest Dame and not CJ

 

[THE HCP]

I’m sure Hood will start next to CJ. Makes sense.

 

[noknobs]

Rest

 

[B-Roy]

The audio is off

 

[AldoTrapani]

Nurkic has been garbage for a long time now

 

[julius]

The audio is off

I just noticed that. It adds a bit of excitement to the game.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Since late in the bubble Nurkic has been terrible

 

[Natebishop3]

I’m sorry but CJ is trash at point guard.

 

[THE HCP]

The audio is off

NBA is screwing up back in Sakaukus. Working on it!!!

 

[THE HCP]

I think I spelled Sacaucus wrong!

 

[James lamphear]

I like to see if we can get other players going like covington and Jones.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Can we please sit Nurk until he’s mentally right or something. He’s been terrible

 

[julius]

That delay is getting distracting.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Covington is so fucking good. I hope we don’t disappoint him

 

[julius]

So it looks like the audio is off in 3 different ways.

The TV feed, the live audio and the live video feed. None of them are synced.

 

[AldoTrapani]

I swear to god sit Nurkic weak ass down please!! He can’t shoot 3s! Why does he continue to do that

 

[AldoTrapani]

Nurkic has been garbage

 

[B-Roy]

CJ does a lot on the court, but I’m sorry I am fully convinced we would be a better team without him.

 

[OneSport3]

It is painfully evident that CJ can not play backup PG. Point guards usually pass and run offense. Things that CJ is unwilling to do.

 

[B-Roy]

I hope teams track how many times a player gets beat on a back door cut. CJ would lead the league.

 

[julius]

If you knew nothing of the teams, and you were asked which one you thought was going to be the higher seed and which team was going to barely make the playoffs, you'd say Denver and then Portland.

 

[illmatic99]

this is worse than wednesday, wtf

 

[AldoTrapani]

CJ does a lot on the court, but I’m sorry I am fully convinced we would be a better team without him.

Your blaming cj? Have you seen how garbage Nurkic has been?

 

[AldoTrapani]

I’m out. Watching the Ducks now. This team is garbage. I feel bad for Dame all this hype and we have no pulse.
