Game Thread 2024-25 GAME #14 - BLAZERS VS HAWKS - NOV 17, 2024 - SUNDAY - 3:00 PM - KATU 2.2, BLAZERVISION

Don’t you worry

 

It's funny: our highest-minutes player was Toumani, and he scored all of 3 points and was a -6, but we all know he's pretty much our MVP (other than Rob, of course).

 

Friggin A, these last 3 games have been fun to watch!!!!

 

Single game plus minus is pointless.

 

I mean I guess. But at this point, hardcore tanking means shutting Sharpe down at some point this season, and unless he is legitimately hurt, I don't want to see that. I would rather see games like this especially seeing Sharpe making clutch baskets with the game on the line, such big experience for him. It is pretty evident we probably won't be in the top 5 with the best odds in the lottery so lets just see how this team does riding Sharpe especially and pray ping pong balls are on our side draft lottery day.

 

Also, Shaedon is in effectively a contract year. He's not gonna agree to sit down to tank unless a large extension is already in place.

 

RIP CITY IS BACK!!!!!!!

 

Another good win and Sharpe beginning clutch down to the wire. But the bench score 58 points tonight and that just might been the key to this win.

 

This is why we need to trade for draft picks.

 

Sure if we can do it by all means. Not sure who we can find to sucker for there lottery pick this year with Ant, Grant or Ayton. Grant maybe could and Timelord if he can stay healthy, otherwise, only Sharpe would get you a lottery pick currently.

 

This team had 10 players who deserved to be on the floor and 3 legit players coming back. Bench scoring is not going to be an issue. Chauncey playing matchups and feel is going to lead to big numbers off the bench.

 

Good on Chauncey for putting Scoot back in down the last stretch. I liked the challenge because it shows belief in the team. I still cannot fathom the refs final interpretation of that call. Young clearly thrusted into Toumani

 

Not sure. Don't want to be trading any away, either.

 

hawks fans discovering Toumani Camara

 

Camara is THE best on ball defender the Blazers have had, maybe ever.

 

Since Pip.

 

Having RW and Clingan at center has really electrified our perimeter defenders. They aren’t afraid to take chances with one of those two back there protecting the paint. This team has potential to be a top 10 defensive team.

 

I thought it was out into place because of Trae and Harden.
