Game Thread 2024-25 GAME #7 - BLAZERS @ SUNS - NOVEMBER 2, 2024 - 7:00 PM - KATU 2.2, BLAZERVISION

Ayton vs Nurk! Can't wait for the battle to hear which fanbase is more disappointed by their center.

 

Hey look, an opponent we've actually beat once in the last 4 years.

 

Says we land in 1:50. So that’s roughly 2am in PHX. Unload the plane, bus to the hotel check in. Looking at about getting to bed at 3am at the earliest. I promise you this has an effect/affect on the players. Might be a tough one tomorrow night. Was going to be anyway, but this ain’t helping.

 

B2B are just kind of stupid, unless it's a double header in one city so teams have same rest/travel.

I'd rather see training camp just condensed to 5 days with 1 preseason game at the end. Then could eliminate all these B2B

 

When I was 20 something I’d go to work after a bender.

Suck it up, buttercup

 

My son calls the 2nd game of back-to-backs that are played on the road "scheduled losses." I tend to agree with him.
We lost the last one by 13 to the Kings, this one we'll play the red hot Suns, and the next one we play in Minnesota.

Tough early game schedule for sure.

 

Just lose, baby

 

Is this Aytons first game back there?

 

Nov 21, 2023 was.

 

I thought he skipped the games in Phoenix last year.

edit - Nevermind you’re right. Looked at the box score.

 

Ant playing?

 

Funny they gave Phx the first two points Ayton scored.

 

Why the F is Rupert not playing ? This is garbage.

Blazers have started 2-11.

 

Ayton Nurk talking smack.

 

Scoot making good things happen though noticed him looking impatient with Ant holding into the ball too long.

 

Nice pass, Ant.

 

Let's make sure Scoot adopts the same team that helped Dame with finishing early in the league.

 

Simons and Scoot are 0-10 and have only 2 assists. And they have to play at the same time.

YUCK.

I don't really like Banton, but good grief. that's bad. Put someone else in.
