Trail Blazers @ Jazz Game Thread

this doesn't look good

 

[RoyToy]

Roy needs the ball in his hands every possession. Sergio taking jumpers is not what the Blazers need.

 

[Penitentiary Face]

which ref made that call? Stevie Wonder or Ray Charles?

 

[alex42083]

8 assists on 26 FGs aren't good.
Sergio has no assists and four TOs.

 

[KingSpeed]

Rudy takes it to the hole.

 

[MAS RipCity]

jazz are so dirty

 

[alex42083]

Damn G.O.

 

[AgentDrazenPetrovic]

oden looks more intense.....

 

[RoyToy]

Korver was holding Oden as he set a pick on him.

 

[KingSpeed]

I hate losing

 

[MARIS61]

no, not the problem...but he needs to step it up. Roy is the only one attacking.

Probably because he's the only one who's touched the ball.

 

[KingSpeed]

this really sucks

 

[BengalDuck]

Our inability to get Oden the ball when he's inside the charging circle is pathetic. I don't care if he's not an offensive threat... he's 6" bigger than anyone else on this court and has gotten great position all game. I'd look disinterested in the game if no one ever threw me the ball and instead settled for shitty jumpers, too.

This Jazz team is making us look like hot garbage out there. Everyone sucks tonight but Roy it seems.

 

[KingSpeed]

we got nothing started to open the 4th

fuck fuck fuck

 

[Tortimer]

That is funny haha!!!

 

[alex42083]

I don't understand how we are so much bigger but Utah is dominating the paint. Painful to watch.

 

[KingSpeed]

We're missing Webster. He had a big 25 pt game when we won in Utah last season.

 

[Tortimer]

I think it's over unless we pull off a miracle IMO.

 

[MAS RipCity]

I feel the same way with Nate as I do Nick Allitotti..horrible schemes, will only prevail unless we play out of our minds. Nate offensive strategy, or lack there of, is disgusting.

 

[RoyToy]

The inability of the Blazers big men to establish position on block, and the inability of the guards to actually throw in a decent pass to the Blazers big men when they actually do establish position is troubling.

It has to be Nate. No way in hell Brandon and Sergio not pass to a wide open GO who has position without any "guidance" from the coach.

Check out #52's game and get back to me.

 

[alex42083]

Blake back, yippy

 

[julius]

The Blazers are playing like Charmin.

 

[J_Ray]

We're missing Webster. He had a big 25 pt game when we won in Utah last season.

He had 2 big games like that against Utah last year....I don't understand how Utah are still getting to the hoop when they're playing so small, Portland should be forcing them to take jumpers right about now.

Why pass him the ball? So he can fumble it, miss a dunk, get fouled and miss FTs, or get stripped?

Really, what about Oden's offensive game tells you he needs the ball more at this point?

 

[alex42083]

Aldridge, where were you in the second and third??

 

[Rodolfo]

maybe we can get a nice run going here. plenty of time left.

 

[KingSpeed]

We were 3-1 against Utah last year and we won two of them without LMA.
