Wonderful! We get a chance to be humiliated on national TV!!

illmatic99 · Nov 19, 2019

Goddamn just make it end, and burn these fucking jerseys.

Darkwebs · Nov 19, 2019

Who wants to see a sequel to this?

B-Roy · Nov 19, 2019

I tune into every game expecting something different. And every time I’m disappointed. At least for this one I won’t be disappointed.

wizenheimer · Nov 19, 2019

oh boy....Melo defending Giannis....what can go wrong?

BlazerBeav · Nov 19, 2019

I will tune in this time. No way. I haven't had that attitude since the pre-Roy days.

Bruno_Sabino · Nov 19, 2019

They play b2b - we gotta be sharp and try to get one at the time. Let’s go! Dame and Melo will ball out on national tv

TBpup · Nov 19, 2019

This is a chance to jump up to as high as #5 in the Lottery. #SilverLining

Ya, maybe we will be lucky and they will put Mario or Tolliver on him.

DDolla · Nov 19, 2019

I already put an L to this game but looking at the schedule. The Blazers can still have an 18-13 record before Christmas if they can beat the teams they suppose to beat.

I gave Anthony an A grade for this reason. He may be terrible at basketball (relative to the NBA level) but he's a superstar tank driver.

That is going to get VERY ugly very fast

BigGameDamian · Nov 19, 2019

We need to find a real backup PG.

Labinot41 · Nov 19, 2019

Giannis against this defense. Oh boy

blazerkor · Nov 19, 2019

Hopefully Dame is back and healthy. He does as much damage to them as Giannis does to us. Then CJ and Melo ball out and beat the Bucks role players. I see a path to victory even if it's a narrow one.

Strenuus · Nov 20, 2019

Over under on giannis scoring 50.

Seriously.

Under, because going into the 2nd half, the Bucks will be up 30

Under, 'cause Melo is gonna kick him in the nuts.

Edit: Oh wait. That's that other dude. We shoulda got him....

Are you saying Melo can't even kick a dude in the nuts?

illmatic99 · Nov 20, 2019

5 an 10?

Holy hell.

kjironman1 · Nov 20, 2019

Go get this one Blazers!

Bruno_Sabino · Nov 20, 2019

We have a chance they comin b2b. We gonna have to play them first! Let’s go Blazers

RipCityDSCPL · Nov 20, 2019

I will be watching AEW Dynamite tonight. Blazers are radio entertainment for me now. Can't stand watching CJ play and now Melo's here? No thanks.

Edit. Guess I should have read the title better. Oh well. Not going to change it. Don't give enough of a fuck.

Luka Doncic is tall....I'd be fine with someone like him. He seems to be alright...

UKRAINEFAN · Nov 20, 2019

Here are some stats on Blazer fouling:
"We pegged fouls as a possible problem for Portland’s centers at the start of the season. We underestimated the gravity of the situation. Even allowing for the early-season settling-in period, the Blazers are giving up an enormous number of free throw attempts: 28.6 per game, dead last in the league. Adding insult to injury, opponents are shooting 81% from the stripe, ranking Portland 30th in that category as well. Just what they needed.

Portland gives up 23.1 points per game from the foul line. That’s 1.6 more than 29th-ranked Atlanta, and astonishing 5.2 points more than the league median."https://www.blazersedge.com/2019/11...trail-blazers-defense-stats-2019-20-whiteside

NBA is so soft. Makes me not want to watch games more than just about anything.
