Game Thread GAME# 30: BLAZERS @ TIMBERWOLVES - DECEMBER 18, 2017 - MONDAY, 5:00 PM (PST), NBCSNW

I mean they could of called that a foul when dame drives on Karl towns. Yet they called it for jimmy butler on the other end. Granted butlers was a bit more obvious but still. We just don’t get calls, that’s that small market Portland fuckery. No calls, no free agents unless you wanna overpay for one who got dropped off for 37 but is known for “defense” and playmaking

 

That technical was the reason we got two Minny moving screen calls to go our way.

How is Scott Foster still officiating? He's one of the worst

 

Stop fucking playing turner at sf. Put aminu there, slide Collins to the 4. Stotts insists on having that third ball handler there even though he is so inconsistent and often hurts us more than helps us

 

Fuck. Me.

 

It was a tight back and forth game until we finished the 3rd quarter on a big run, besides that, it was back and forth until that point.

 

Blowing a 10 point lead under 5 min when ur controlling the whole game was the difference

This team is truly a 41 win team. Not bad enough for the #1 pick but ok enough to get the 8th seed and be swept by the warriors

 

both Butler and Crawford had their best games of the season
I guess its only logical to lose when that happens

 

Aminu lost us the game, in more than 1 play in the last couple of minutes. If not for Crawford we'd have won easily.

I really enjoyed that game because we held the lead throughout the 2nd half, instead of the usual desperate come-from-behind BS.

Stotts looked like a good coach tonight. He has cut down on the 4th quarter error circus.

 

I'm not even trying to be rude but I honestly have no idea why you even bother to watch this team GrandJury.

 

Start Collins at PF already. It seems like we play better when he’s in there. Aminu is a SF against the majority of the NBA. Why can’t the guy getting paid to see this...see this?

 

Why not double Butler the whole Game? Terry is a bad Coach again

 

No respect.

 

For those blaming the refs....talk about clockwork, the Blazers had 7 more turnovers and shot more jumpers, but ya....the refs

 

I dont understand Lillard decision to attack with 8 on the clock, end of game. That cost us. We should have held to the end, and heaved it high in the air.

 

There were MULTIPLE reasons we lost the game tonight. And it took ALL of them and the perfect storm to lose by 1 point, on the road, at the end of a road trip to a playoff team that has a better record than us. It's not the end of the world.

 

I can't believe these refs. They sit around with their half million a year salaries, and risk losing it all just to screw Portland.

 

37 yo Crawford killed us... yes, he won that game for them, not Butler
and refs can go fuck themselves

 

You're make it sound like we never took it to the hole all night. That's complete BS and you know it.

 

I mean, there were plenty of bad calls, but we pissed that one away

 

Wasn't able to watch the game. How did Jimmy Butler shoot double the FTAs of our entire team? Bad reffing, or was our team just not very aggressive while Jimmy was?
