Seriously I think Pat deserves a few DNPs. Play Smith in his place.

I swear to god, Pat put on extra weight/muscle/mass/whatever the hell you want to call it, to play PF and it has just ruined him completely.

His lateral quickness wasn't great and now he is slower, can't jump and that extra weight doesn't mean jack sh#% if you don't know how to box out.

Dude needs to lose the weight this offseason.

I think on top of that, when Giddey is off, he is way off and everything looks ugly. He is having an ugly game this first half.

And like that, he goes on a run with some fantastic passes and you look up and he's 3 assists from a triple double halfway through the third.

Buz is redeeming all of Pat’s missed dunks.

It’s glorious.

Pat’s dunking is shameful.

Pat had a nice drive to the rim. I did a double take, was that Pat?

It’s easy to compare/contrast Pat and Matas. And I dunno if Matas is more skilled, but he plays with a ton more energy. He’s just seemingly involved in every play. I’m a fan.

Pat had a drive and just impaled the ball on the front of the rim.
He had a layup a few mins later but his best drive had a 10c finish.

15/10/15 tripple dub from Giddey

19 rebounds is insane for a PG.

I thought they should’ve drafted that center. His name isn’t Giddey, but it’s something like that. Josh? Max?

But naw Matas was the right pick. This guy is awesome. I’m getting a jersey.

Josh GODdey is a special player

dude's had a nice floor game but his shooting has still been pretty concerning. dude is just driving desperately seeking contact and if he doesn't get it he's scared to put up the shot. has turned down multiple open looks at three too.

gotta sort that out if he's going to live up to his next contract

I didn't realize the blazers had an IDF soldier on the team. Surprising

HearshotKDS · Post #54 » by **HearshotKDS** » Sat Apr 5, 2025 2:20 am

Not a good shooting night for Giddey but 15/12/19 on 13 shots is a crazy stat line.

Chi town · Post #55 » by **Chi town** » Sat Apr 5, 2025 2:20 am

So the Blazers get it to 3 pts and then bench their best player Deni who’s on the verge of a 40 piece.

Now that’s tanking!!!

NecessaryEvil · Post #56 » by **NecessaryEvil** » Sat Apr 5, 2025 2:21 am

Coby and Josh are special together. This is just the beginning.

Mk0 · Post #57 » by **Mk0** » Sat Apr 5, 2025 2:21 am

15/19/12 w/ 2 TOs is a wild stat line for a PG

Man I hope this team gets through the play in and makes the playoffs. I don't think we'd be easily brushed aside could sneak a couple games our way .

Seeing Deni and Pat play together in the same game is absolutely depressing. It's a shame we didn't just make the conventional pick. Him and Matas at the forward spots sets you up for the next 5 years.

I did say he gets his "stats" but even he said hes not shooting well. The guy is a walking triple double. Even in the games he sucks. He made up for it in the second half thank goodness. But on offense it was awful and ugly.
