Game 39: Pistons (17-21) @ Trail Blazers (16-22) - 10:00 PM EST 

Post#1 » by Jaisy » Sat Jan 7, 2017 6:50 pm

Are we able to win 2 games in a row? This time we are facing Blazers, and their fantastic backcourt, Dame Dolla and CJ. Dame just came back of the injury and he played well. McCollum is on fire for like 2 or 3 weeks. KCP defense will play a crucial role if we want to win this. Beginning of the 5 game road trip(PTB-Sactown-Dubs-Jazz-Lakers). Winning 3 of these 5 would be perfect, because after those, our schedule is looking not that bad. We can still make a run for the playoffs. I hope that coach will give minutes to BOBAN not Baynes. Stan coaching during this season is so so pathetic. Blazers, really, just like us, are trash this season. We can definitely get a W in the 39th game of the season. DEEEEEEETROIIIT BASKETBAAAALLL!!

Their backcourt is going to kill us but we need to counter that by killing them up front with Drummond and Boban.

We need a poll with the question "which one of Lillard and McCollum do you want to rape us?"

We just have one KCP.

I can picture Lillard and McCollum being angry for not being the lucky one.

the past few years the blazers were notoriously bad at defending point guards. this year, however, they are actually average/good defensively vs PGs and SGs but are super vulnerable to the other three positions. that's based off of daily fantasy numbers, not me watching the tape or anything.

I'm told that the NBA is monitoring the weather situation in Portland, with snow expected. #Pistons game could be postponed.

That's the thing i'm not sure many people realize. This isn't 2004 anymore we can't be holding teams under 70. Holding a team to 90 nowadays is great as sad as that is. I wish they would bring back hand checking that would help us a ton imo

Yup. I was going to go out after the Lions game so probably would've missed the Pistons. So I get to watch it tomorrow that's cool. Hopefully the Lions can pull this out. Sucks their Center might have Concussion problems.

Better off being delayed. Nobody was going to watch this over the Lions playoff game tonight.

Lions are a 38 year letdown for me. Not expecting anything less than that tonight. We will forever be losers. I used to get excited when we made playoffs, now i just remain honest with myself that we don't stand a chance. I just turned it on to see us going for it on 4th down and that was quite a play. lol
