Discuss the game here. It's father and daughter day at the game for me and my little Princess. So if anyone wants me to throw something at the Portland bench from level 200, let me know.

Big game. Losing today would only be trumped by the home Lakers loss.

POR isn't as horrible as the Lakers, given how low we come out for afternoon games it wouldn't surprise me to see Lillard and CJ light it up.

If you are in the Arena, it's daddy and daughter day at the game. Drop by and say hi, Section 202, Row A, seats 11 and 12.

Typical early afternoon start. :nonono:

Expectedly terrible start.

We should never play an afternoon game again. Ever.

Are we the only team without a curfew? I know that NBA players are more nocturnal than the average joe, but it sure seems like we're disproportionately affected by early start times.

When Wall isn't playing a high level, we gonna struggle

Looks like I was right. Their guards are better then ours. Hell apparently their bigs too. Team lacks professionalism with the effort they put out. Sigh... hopefully they wake up.

Jesus. I can't remember the last time Portland missed (except for that offensive rebound by Henderson).

Post #14 » by **nate33** » Mon Jan 18, 2016 7:41 pm

Portland has scored on the last 8 consecutive possessions.

If Gerald Henderson is making 3 pt shots, you probably won't win, lol.

Beal had Leonard on him on the perimeter. Nene crowds the area by posting up another big on that side instead of clearing out (Beal, to his discredit, doesn't wave Nene off either). Once Nene receives the entry pass, he holds the ball for a few seconds, makes a bad pass, and turns the ball over. Ugly possession.

We have no defensive energy.

Post #18 » by **pineappleheadindc** » Mon Jan 18, 2016 7:46 pm

Be it resolved....Gary Neal is useless on D

Is that the first time Ed Davis has flexed in his entire career?

Spurs East not looking good today.

Who will prevail?
