Monday 10/27 NBA Game Thread

This may sound silly but the Billups scandal may be the best thing to happen to Portland in years, i never rated him as coach and they seem to be playing a lot better under the new guy (getting rid of cancer Ayton and bringing in ultimate pro Jrue Holliday also helps)

I actually totally agree. Splitter is a prefect coach for this team I would want. He’s from the Pop coaching tree, proven experience, great Xs and Os, former player, first time coach.

Can Reaves get some damn help

[Indomitable]

I'll never understand why JJ Reddick doesn't seem to trust/play Knecht more ? The kid can play and is a solid shooter from 3 point range. He is going to ask for a trade soon for more opportunities i think and it will be another good young prospect The Lakers let go of too soon.

No one cares what he wants. They will just make him inactive if her stirs the pot.

12 steals (47 on the season) and 8 blocks for Portland tonight.

Shaedon Sharpe still shooting like crap.

Clingan is starting to show why he was a lottery pick. I like him. Especially his rebounding effort.

Blazers are really fun to watch now, even if it's a with a predictable new coach bounce.

Devi really should be an all star this season, and Jrue has brought a lot of leadership and professionalism to Portland. A true winner.

At the very least I feel Blazers fans should be hoping to make the play in (The Lottery has never been kind to you guys sadly)

Ayton got into foul trouble early sadly 16-8, Knecht actually 16 points lols.

Next game is vs Wolves, they don't have Antman and hopefully Lakers will be rested

0 points from Bronny in 20 minutes isn't enough help?

CB always struck me as too negative/conservative as coach which is a bad quality for any coach fo have, especially coaching a fairly young team like The Blazers.

Sometimes teams need unfortunate/accidental luck like Portland did with the Billups scandal to get a fresh start and more positivity !

Any chance Dame returns this season if The Blazers make the playoffs or play in (or even close to it)

Hanging out to seeing Dame's first home game back as a Blazer, it just feels so so right (probably will shed a tear)

Yeah I am a softie for Portland.
Maybe the smallest market team in the league that's always punched above its weight and fantastic, passionate and loyal fans.

None. It’s been made clear in the media that he’s not playing a second of this season regardless what happens.

Spida was sensational tonight. He will be an MVP finalist. No doubt in my mind he's a superstar.

Ontopic, the Lakers without Luka, Gabe, Smart or Bron just don't have any ballhandler to replace Austin

It's a wasted roster spot for an undersized point guard that can't pass or shoot or do anything well.

This is why nepotism is a bad thing.

Mike Conley 10 points, 4 assists, 0 turnovers (and only -2 in the 13 point loss) silences the blood-thirsty doubters, as he does every year.

Pistons, Magic, Thunder, Nuggets, Lakers.

2/5 correct picks.

The TWolves are going to be without ANT for 2 weeks, we'll see how he holds up playing 25+ mpg.

The fact that they couldn't upgrade at PG is a big concern. Dillingham is out with a broken nose, but even if healthy, they probably can't trust him to run the team.

[Lakers In 5]

Klay is dating Megan Thee Stallion's fine ass and can't even get to 10 points. Bro's even more washed than I thought. Just waking up next to her gives you 15.

[Wolfgang630]

Anybody can put up 50 points nowadays. It’s really diluted

I agree, Conley is one of the few point guards in the NBA you can trust to keep the turnovers down, plus he shot .410 downtown last year!
Conley averaged 25 minutes per game last season, and played 71 games so covering for Dillingham is very easy.
