Game Thread WESTERN FINALS, GAME 2: BLAZERS @ WARRIORS - 5/16/19, THURSDAY, 6PM, ESPN (1 Viewer)

Cool history, but I don't see how it's relevant.

History is always relevant.

 

[LuckyShot]

Again same line up as predicted. Pathetic. Scotts sucks ass

If he runs the same lineup, ok fine. But he better switch up the scheme or at least the matchups, and have a different plan on offense so that Aminu and Harkless aren't just standing with their thumbs up their butts watching Dame get trapped. And after that, he better be ready with a quick hook if they are bogging us down again.

For the record, I'm doubtful he does any of that, but I'm very much hoping to be pleasantly surprised.

 

[Dom McBlazer]

Of all teams that the Warriors have faced in the playoffs, it seems that we're the ONLY team to not double-team Curry on a constant basis. To me, that shit is just mind-boggling, just unfathomable against one of the greatest (IF NOT THE GREATEST) shooters this league has seen.

On a side note, one of the commentators brought up how the Nuggets should feel. BITCH, I ain't trynna hear that. They shouldn't have choked in game 7 to begin with, but it is what it is.

 

[Lukee]

Oh c'mon ESPN. Chauncey is the only I like and then he said he feel sorry because Nuggets aren't here because they could push Warriors to seven games. WE PLAYED ONE GAME. ffs

 

[Lukee]

Kevin Durant (calf strain) won't travel to Portland for Games 3 and 4, according to GM Bob Myers.

 

[Rhal]

Oh god we get to listen to Mark "i'm still salty I was fired" Jackson

 

[LuckyShot]

History is always relevant.

Yeah but... No one on the team now had anything to do with any of what you posted. That wasn't these Blazers. If we win tonight, it will literally be a coincidence.

Now if you want to point to what this team for against Denver and OKC, then that makes sense. We won the second road game in both series.

 

[Road Ratt]

Go Blazers, I am believing harder!

 

[Shaboid]

You know what time is? Not even gonna need Dame time. It's time to fucking win!

 

[LuckyShot]

Oh god we get to listen to Mark "i'm still salty I was fired" Jackson

All he does every game he commentates on is solidify why he was fired.

 

[LuckyShot]

Kevin Durant (calf strain) won't travel to Portland for Games 3 and 4, according to GM Bob Myers.

Probably the best chance we'll have against this team.... And we already spotted them one game. They for damn sure won't be handing us any easy ones.

 

[Rhal]

Why is it that ESPN games start so much later then start time?

 

[Cugel]

How long before Dame tries to dribble out of the trap and throws it away?

 

[Wade Garrett]

All he does every game he commentates on is solidify why he was fired.

I don't see it.
Jackson is completely respectful to the Warriors and self-effacing in his humor.

Too much talking lets play basketball!!!

 

[Lukee]

smh

 

[BonesJones]

Ok.

Weve lost Game 2 in the last 2 series against the Warriors. These teams actually have some of the same players.

 

[LuckyShot]

I don't see it.
Jackson is completely respectful to the Warriors and self-effacing in his humor.

No, I mean he was fired because he was a bad coach.

 

[BonesJones]

smh

Lmao

 

[BigGameDamian]

Referees:

It's too bad when every game of the playoffs the fans care about who will be reffing the games so much. I can't remember the NBA Playoffs ever being this controversial.

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

This is our game to win and we will!
#USvEVERYBODY
Go Blazers!
There will be Dame Time Tonight.

 

[Shaboid]

Seriously, DJ Khaled?!

 

[Wade Garrett]

No, I mean he was fired because he was a bad coach.

What Lenny Wilkens was to Portland,
Jackson was to GS.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

umm its not the rockets smarties...

 

[LuckyShot]

Fuck, start the game already.

 

[LuckyShot]

Lmao

And they left it up for like 5 minutes.

 

[kingslayer]

LETS GO BLAZERS!!!!!!!!!!

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Hey they they realized the Blazers are playing!!!!

 

[KingSpeed]

Ok.

Weve lost Game 2 in the last 2 series against the Warriors. These teams actually have some of the same players.

I’m not saying we’ll win because we won before. I’m just stating our history. Our title in 1977 always matters. It’s a part of what this franchise is.

NBA brings it on themselves.
