Game Thread 2024-25 GAME #46 - BLAZERS VS THUNDER - JAN 26, 2025 - SUN - 3:00 PM - CHARGE - KUNP - BLAZERVISION

Joe is OKC’s only good player.

 

Being wrong seems like a flag you fly proudly. It’s a unique trait.

 

Man we need a free throw coach...worst free throw shooting team I can remember ever in a Blazer uniform

 

I’m not wrong. OKC can’t guard us without cheating but we’re missing our free throws.

 

Make that 15

 

Blazers beating themselves.

 

OKC is a bullshit team. They’ll lose in the first round if they even make the playoffs.

 

We’d be winning this game if Thybulle and Ayton were playing.

 

People are going to blame Chauncey for benching him, but I think Shaedon has regressed all this year. His handle just doesn't seem NBA quality. He's a forward in a guard's body.

 

TIMEOUT THUNDER

 

He’s scoring more than he did last year.

 

How he's grown into such a great man and that they're proud of him and a few other things. Like it was his birthday or something.

 

Portland playing decent. OKC is just so good, so deep and so well-coached.

 

SGA just one dimensional. No assists, no rebounds. Can’t defend.

 

I don't care what we gave up for Deni, it was a steal when you factor in how he improves the other players and his contract. Perfect piece going forward.

 

To get a player of his calibur at his age is almost unheard of. Joe's best move easily. Just hope that pick doesn't amount to much.

 

Ok. My analysis:

Every game OKC plays, they get lucky and catch their opponent on a bad night.

 

Clingan goes out. Why?

 

Shaedon's gotten worse each year.

Just looks like a guy that doesn't go real hard. Gives the impression he doesn't work hard enough at his game to become the special player that he has the special God-given talent to become.

 

I think there's some truth to that. But if you have a lineup of Scoot, Deni, Tou and Clingan around him, there's hope you can mold him to get on THEIR page.
