Game Thread 2024-25 GAME #19 - BLAZERS @ PACERS - NOV 27, 2024 - WED - 4:00 PM PST - CHARGE - BLAZERVISION

Lucky to be tied up. Pacers have got us into mis matches every play. a lot of time they start thee play with mis-matches. Guys completely unguarded in the corners. Ayton playing very lackadaisical.

 

How quickly KlingKong dramatically improved our defense and rebounding, has truly impressed me. I would like to see his on court/off court numbers. I feel they may be elite type numbers. It was very noticeable in the last game how much we depend on his rebounding.

It is all The Hcp’s fault.


(That is a point Mr.Mediocre Man)

 

I am not impressed with Ayton pre injury or in these first few minutes. He should have more energy than most of our players and show the biggest hustle on the court considering he hasn't played. I think KlingKong can get up and down just as fast as Ayton.
Ayton is too soft for what we need in that position.

 

I love Scoots playmaking skills. Just feel his skillset would be better served in a different era

 

Deni is good

 

There could be a move back towards PG’s and centers in the near future with the recent drafts providing plenty of both.
Maybe the 3 & D wing becomes less valuable because of that, increasing Scoot’s style of play to be successful in his career? It seems him and KlingKong could have very complimenting games for the bulk of their careers.

 

I’m not a Scoot hater. I’m not a hater of any Blazer. I’m diehard. I want him to succeed. I’m just not seeing what other people are seeing YET

 

Keep cleaning. We were doing better without you

 

bbref says Scoot is taking 39% of his shots at the rim (0-3'), not 46%

 

Some times we look so good....

 

I mean come on. Sharpe has star written all over him..

 

I seem to remember a predraft interview of Shaedon in Indiana that a lot of their fans clowned him for.

Nice to see him dominate Mathurin early.

 

Haha!
Be nice! He did create this fantastic thread afterall.

 

McConnell reminds me of my good buddy Landon in high school. Ended up being a decent college player. Not outstanding at anything, but just a fucking gnat.

 

Ayton is weak around the rim, trade him.

 

Our offense is just night and day when Scoot runs it vs anyone else does. This is obvious on nights like this one.

 

Ayton I’m kind of through with…
