Game Thread GAME# 24: 76ERS @ BLAZERS - FEBRUARY 11, 2021 - THURSDAY, 7:00, TNT

Lmao

 

I still have not yet even noticed anything with the cameras or angles or missing any action

 

Bro, you GOTTA' explain this post, I'm begging you. Dame shoots like shit tonight and you are blaming Terry Stotts? You just can't make this kinda' shit up FAMS.

 

The dude is a scrapper. Sounds cliche', but does all the little things. Shit isn't going to show up on on the box. I actually don't expect ANY offense from him whatsoever. Everything on that end is gravy.

 

Fun game, although not the cleanest. I've always had a soft spot for the Sixers, I guess because of Julius Erving and now because of Embiid. They've sort of been the Blazers sister team of the East - some talented teams but never quite a full complement. Ironic, that Sixers have a lot of parts we could use and vice versa. I couldn't help but think that Sixers of that much tossed around CJ for Harris deal and how it might make both teams more complete. Sixers got this monster in Embiid but until they pair him with a bona fide playmaking perimeter scorer, they're never going to be anything but pretenders. If they hadn't hired Doc, I could still hold out for the Embiid/Lillard dream tandem in Portland, but alas.

 

We won.

 

Nope! This was too much of a stretch. Where is the UNLIKE button?

 

And I don't want to hear about we gave up 2 picks for him. Neither of those would be helping us win games in the next 2 years. You think Dame gives a fuck about those 2 picks. He wants warriors around him, not 19 year olds learning the game. We don't have time for that shit, and neither does. he.

 

When he starts hitting his open threes... and he will. There are going to be a lot of people in here happy to have those threes along with all of the tipped balls and the smothering D that makes opponents pass the ball like they're being doubled.

 

Out of line......FUNNY.....but out of line!!!

 

Sixers were my 2nd favorite team growing up. Those 80s teams.....LOVED 'EM!

 

This is a great problem to have. Fantastic.

 

The guy we drafted and traded had 17/7 tonight. That said, I love RoCo. He has now won two games for us with clutch defense this season. Toronto game and thus game.

 

Who cares. He isn't on our team and wouldn't get that here.

 

I feel validated haha

 

There are a lot of rookies taken 15th or lower having a positive impact that could help us win games. We also gave up Ariza in the process. But it was still the right trade.

 

Can you please tell more, so I can stop being Stotts hater?

We all want warriors. That's why talkin about JailBlazers as last great squad that was here. I wasn't worried for Covington for one second this season. If there is anything to calm me down when playoffs will start, it's his presence. Thanking god we have him. And I like some poster's Crash comparison.

 

I was pretty shocked on the opening tip off at how much Embiid towered over him. I think of Kanter as this big, incredibly strong guy. But he's nowhere near in the same class physically.

Embiid is such an amazing player. The Sixers would hands down be my favorite "other" team if they can figure out a way to get CJ on their roster. The problem is Tobias Harris is significantly worse than CJ, and Simmons is significantly better. It's hard to get the pieces to line up correctly.
