Game Thread 2022-23 Game #42 - BLAZERS VS MAVERICKS - JANUARY 14, 2023 - SATURDAY - 7:00 PM (PDT) ROOT

Dame and Ant actually feeding off of each other on offense. It's both great and a little shocking.

 

Dame well could drop fiddy again if he keeps this up.

 

attacking Dame is just much much much better than passive sleepy Dame

 

OMG Blazers are leading big.

 

all things considered a great half.

dame is on another level right now with his aggression and focus

 

Doesn't it seem like Doncic is allowed to foul our guys on a regular basis and never get called for it? Have seen two against Lillard and then that one on Eubanks on the rebound.

 

Great first half...this is what this team should look like every game..well balanced on both sides of the ball. givees me some hope

 

Very good first half, but, in my opinion, we need to be up at least 10-12 with 5 minutes to go. Otherwise, the Mavs, like every other team we play, is going to run the same play every possession of crunch time to create a mismatch for Luka, probably against Dame, and we don't have the help defensive ability to stop that against a hot star player down the stretch.

 

I was just thinking the same!

 

CAN'T WE JUST ENJOY GOOD THINGS WHILE THEY'RE GOOD??

 

GPII frustrated the hell out of Luka early in this game

 

Good to see them attack the paint early with the mismatch...it's paying off big time in this game

 

Okay Christopher.

 

Glad i saved some wear on your keyboard.

 

Thank You Wood for not playing

 

During the timeout Nurk still complaining about his turnover and Chauncey tells him to shut up and let it go.

FINALLY someone tells Nurk to shut up.

 

What’s paying off from what I see is they are home and they are getting a bit of rest.
Much more energy.

 

Chauncey pulls Nurk out of the game and Nurk is still running his mouth on the bench. Billups had to tell him to shut up a second time.

 

The Blazers are just leaving Bullock shoot open 3
