Game Thread 2024-25 GAME #38 - BLAZERS VS HEAT - JAN 11, 2025 - SAT - 7:00 PM - CHARGE - KUNP - BLAZERVISION

Is that a good thing or bad?

 

Is it the same tv guy for this game ?

answer: no . It's back to the regular guy.

 

This season, Miami's engine is performing on half its cylinders. It's not just Butler. Rozier has nosedived. Jaquez and Bam are less effective. Riley has gone senile. We can win this.

 

Miami has won its last two games.

 

The radio guy says this starting lineup for the Blazers has only played 4 minutes together this season.

 

Deni is fearless when he is going downhill.

 

No minutes for Rupert? :/

Banton and scoot and Simons instead.

 

Nobody can make a thing tonight.

 

Chauncey’s rotations make zero sense to me

 

These rotations are crazy. Everyone gets 3 minutes.

 

Tyler Herro is very fun and very good

 

is Klingon on a minute restriction or what.

 

How does Billups still have a job ? -- NM -- were tanking without it being super obvious like it's been the past couple seasons.


Cronin and / or ownership is either clueless or more likely do not care as long as the team makes some money and keeps the fans coming in.

We are in dark days as Blazer fans and if some fans are still behind Cronin and co. then i have some ocean front property to sell to you really cheap in Montana .

We fans need to stand up and boycott this team or something cause we have to force this front offices hands at some point or they will continue to walk over this fan base -- time to say enough is enough. --

 

I hate to see us get outhustled like this, especially at home. Our effort is so uneven in the Chauncey Era.

Our offense is so lazy. Billups' famous no-pass offense. Just dribble around and shoot with the occasional poorly executed pick and roll.

And then the defense. Ugh. We can't guard the 3-point line, but I guess it's understandable with the Heat breaking out those never-before-seen screens ... jk, obviously, we just have no clue how we want to play them and then we get caught out of position and the Heat, no matter what personnel they have on the floor, make open shots.

I'd really like to see more of other people on Chauncey's staff coaching this team, because his approach is blech.

 

Halftime, 16 down. Miami has more physical energy than us. But the big difference is mental energy. We aren't anticipating. Was there a drunken party last night?

I see that I should add, "and Spoelstra has grown a double chin."

 

The only good news is that they outfouled us 10-4.

 

Deni tore his acl

 

Non contact injury. Looks like he is going to be okay
