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

[TBpup]

what coaches are available?

I think we would have too look REALLY hard to find one worse defensively than Stotts and one who held players less accountable.

 

[B-Roy]

in a halfcourt defensive possession, we had nurk pick up murray without them running ANY action. how does that happen?

One team is taking this seriously and one isn’t. Our demeanor is chill mode LeBron esque.

 

[Chris Craig]

A Blazer free throw? I can't believe it

 

[bobf]

On the bright side - no matter HOW BAD we are playing - this team can’t possibly be worse than last years team. It’s not possible.

 

[Blazinaway]

you hope?

 

[illmatic99]

is nurk just sleeping right now?

 

[BonesJones]

We're showing so soft but so far out it leaves an easy dropoff pass to the rolling big. Simple executional mistake but killer.

 

[B-Roy]

Nurk? You okay? Got covid?

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Are they all just really fuckin stoned?

 

[calvin natt]

Trying very hard to refrain and keep perspective. But fuck it, Nurk needs to pull his head out.

 

[Buffalo Custard]

Do we not know what a bad shot is? Our defense is bad enough as it is and our bad offense is making our defense even worse. GT and RoCo only ones taking good shots. CJ forcing it into multiple defenders. Nurk takes two threes and a long two early in the shot clock. Hood and Melo forcing up low percentage jumpers. How can you play in the NBA this long and still not know what a low percentage shot is???

Know yes, care no.

 

[TBpup]

The broadcasters celebrate a run......that got us to within 24.

 

[B-Roy]

Is Nurk even trying?

 

[illmatic99]

wow, ive never seen terry go after a player like that. FINALLY

 

[TBpup]

Wow....Stotts actually getting in Nurk's face. Wish he would do that to CJ. (will never happen)

 

[kjironman1]

Did anyone else just see Scott’s read Nurk the riot act?

 

[bobf]

“The ball bouncing their way” aka “hustle”

 

[B-Roy]

wow, ive never seen terry go after a player like that. FINALLY

Dunno what’s wrong with him. When he came back in the bubble he was hustling his ass off even though he was clearly a bit rusty.

Right now he looks like Hassan.

 

[Titan]

Maybe we have Dame be player/coach? Mostly kidding, mostly.

 

[illmatic99]

there ya go, nurk

 

[Blazinaway]

wow, ive never seen terry go after a player like that. FINALLY

Bout time, Nurks been crap

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Giles and DJJ have really been the only bright spots

 

[TBpup]

Giles showing the range.

 

[Darkwebs]

It’s called Nepotism

 

[illmatic99]

Bout time, Nurks been crap

and nurk responds with a bone jarring screen and a hustle steal.

 

[TBpup]

Giles and DJJ have really been the only bright spots

I'd add Trent in there as well.....but the bright spots have certainly been few and far between.

 

[Titan]

Are they all just really fuckin stoned?

Rocky Mountain High

 

[wizenheimer]

I've been watching the Duck game and every time I switch to the Blazer game I've seen a Nurk turnover or CJ driving into a crowd and jacking up a bad shot

Dame's out so the offense likely sucks...is the defense any better tonight and are the Blazers giving better effort?

 

[THE HCP]

Audio should be fixed

 

[Blazinaway]

and nurk responds with a bone jarring screen and a hustle steal.

good, he needs to wake the F up
