Tank 2022

[PCmor7]

I think the winds are anomaly and the blazers will settle back into losing soon.

Nah. Wind is pretty much a natural occurence.

Again, players don't tank games. You don't want a player on your team that would intentionally lose a game.

GMs build teams to tank. This team as currently constructed is built to tank.

I dont believe Joe is building to tank. Seems to be following through on what he mentioned after trade w/CJ.

Bruh.... that's not even a tank.... that's a self-propelled gun (AKA artillery) .

Do you even tank???

 

[HailBlazers]

Wins,not winds. F****** voice to text, lol.

Since when can dogs talk to text?

Bannable post!

I considered editing your post surreptitiously to correct the typo, but it made me think of "the winds of change", so I decided to leave it alone.

just delete the whole damn post! Its bannable anyhow! Do your job???

 

[SlyPokerCat]

You are my favorite platypus!

That's not what you said to me last night

 

[SharpesTriumph]

So what does that have to do with saying that players don't intentionally lose games? Again, you don't want to player on your team that will intentionally throw a game.

Nothing. I never said that and my post never quoted that.

especially after eating beans!!!

I would say currently the blazers have the third or fourth worst roster in the Western conference.

Where would you put it?

I would put it as "That's why the play the games."

 

[blazerfan11]

Then they have failed three games in a row.

This is what our tank looks like right now:

The tank hasn't started well since the trade deadline. It's bitter sweet. My brain says drop as far as we can, my heart enjoys watching this new team compete.

The reality is its Chauncey's team now, and as a first year coach, ex-NBA champion there isn't a tank bone in his body.

He's not playing Bledsoe, and regardless of what has been reported, I don't think he's significantly injured.

 

[Pinwheel1]

I don't think we can catch the bottom 3 (Detroit, Orlando, or Houston)
Maybe 4 and 5 Indiana and Houston
Only two wins up on #6......
Of course, we could get lucky with the so-called ping pong balls, but isn't that tougher than it used to be?

 

[PCmor7]

If we win tonight...

If we starting winning on nights we don't play the tank really is in trouble.

 

[Boise Blazer]

While logic says that the tank is better for our future I am really am beginning to wonder if Dame is rethinking sitting out.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

All this ball movement and player movement is fucking up the tank.

 

[Haakzilla]

Blazers gonna win out

 

[OneSport3]

The Pistons beat the red hot Celtics for the Tank 2022

 

[Wizard Mentor]

The Tank is back, but not for us! Come on Pels, tank it up! 538 says Pels will finish 8th from bottom.

Careful. If they tank too hard they have a much much higher chance of getting into the top 4.

 

[Wizard Mentor]

Pels Lose, our pick moves to #7 (tied for 7)

8th or 9th from the bottom would be perfect. But now they are 7th and that gives them almost a 30% chance of landing in the top four with the ping pong balls.. That scares me.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

CJ is doing really well, hopefully he can help them win about two out of five games from here on out.

Welcome to the Jungle - that's why this is still an interesting thread!

Honestly you do not want NO to move any closer cause there odds of moving up into Top 3 increases meaning Portland get's JACK this year -- ideal spot is keep NO around 7 to 9 spot just to keep odds lower of a jump. Specially is Portland cannot tank like they should cause while it's been nice to see them win now after the break -- time to LOSE and lose like your a High School team playing Jordan's Bulls type losing -- LOL

I never want to root for injuries but a couple key ankle sprains and such nothing real serious would not be the worst thing to happen to this team.
