GLB of the game Kate Beckinsale

Must miss the game because of work so here are the quarter by quarter GLB pics

1st quarter


2nd quarter


3rd quarter


4th quarter

Truthfully Ant needs to be the primary playmaker when it’s CJ/Ant in the backcourt

The Spurs are going to be interesting to follow for like Portland, they likely are late lottery,
7-8 seed at best this season. If they are floundering around .500 with little hope of going
anywhere towards the trade deadline, I'd be fascinated to see how many LA trades back
to Portland for Whiteside we'll see. Stotts could then go back to his regular P&R offense
with Dame and then if the team is above water in March, perhaps Nurk and Collins can
fuel a late run ala last season.

Of course thats a big if...

Refs making damn sure to keep the Spurs in this game, pretty hilarious how biased the calls are so far.

Another blown lead, can’t blame this one entirely on the refs even though some calls have been bad

The Spurs have 4 PF meanwhile Blazers have 10 I'm sorry there is no way in hell the Blazers have fouled more than double the times the Spurs have.

Especially with both teams taking roughly the same amount of shots outside the paint.

Wow, Hood is playing so well this season he needs to take more shots.

Pop got ejected from this game? Wow when his team was literally getting to the line more than double the Blazers amazing.

Did Bazemore pin that rebound?

Terrible offensive rebounding by Blazers once again.

Since outscoring the Spurs in the 1st quarter 41 to 23 the Blazers have been outscored by 10 in the 2nd and 14 in the 3rd. Umm yeah this is pretty **** ridiculous with performances like this a lot of fingers will start to be pointed at Stotts.

It's not like this is the Spurs team of 5+ years ago they have a barely better record than we do.

That was a great h-o-r-s-e shot.

Yeah but we did outscore them by 18 in the first.

I said that, the first part of my sentence since outscoring them 41 to 23 in the 1st quarter. Also far more important to win multiple quarters than just to win one.

This is like if you claim your the winner of a golf game because in the first 3 holes you are -2 under par but by the end of the thing your opponent has 4 less strokes than you do.

Ugh. Lillard was superhuman to start the season and Portland struggled. Now the team has played a bit better but Lillard is struggling.

Whiteside had a great play there the refs better not overturn this.

Is there a reason you said it? Do you think being down by 6 is worse because we were once up by 18? I think 6 down is just 6 down. It doesn't matter how you got down by 6.

What a rollercoaster!
