Official Game Thread: Hawks at Trail Blazers

[klharper]

Snell looks so much bigger than 6’6”.  He looks about as big as Knight at “ 6’10” ”

Too many ill advised 3s, we stopped doing what was working

If Huerter could just play avg defense.......I love his playmaking skills. 

His defense with Trae is bad, its insane. He looked so much better with Bogi and Rondo

There's absolutely no reason why Clint Capela shouldn't be on the floor for the entire quarter.

None.

OK . . so I did something possibly worse.

I changed the odds of the game ( didn't know I could do that ) . . this may be a game changer for me

$10 Wager

• Hawks ( -5.5 )
• Gonzaga ( -20.5 )

Potential payout: $121.24

 

I may have screwed myself in this.  But I'm wagering $15 less, but potentially getting the same amount if the Hawks and Zags really ball out.

Let's get it done tonight Trae!

#KeepThatSameEnergy

 

Hawks down by 4 . . . 7 min to go

Zags WIN . . . . . . . . by 14

original spread was ( -15.5 ) . . . Zags throw an alley oop to a reserve big man with 20 seconds left. He catches the ball clean, but MISSES the dunk.  So I would've lost at -15.5, because of that play.

 

2 team parlay  . . . DEAD

Damn . . Melo taking over.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Get Solo out of this game LP.  Get him out.

[RedDawg#8]

You see how important it is to have a a guy you can throw it in to late in games to get buckets?

Its winning time in a close game, Blazers are running offense through Melo in the post and pretty soon once we start doubling will get clean looks from outside.

Meanwhile, we are still floating on the outside hoping Trae can create magic.

Vet teams feed to the post late it games. We ain't built like that.

Everyone is more comfortable facing the basket with space. That space disappears down the stretch.

 

[Marvin24Williams]

I'm just about done with Pierce sorry 

[capstone21]

Trae has just been god awful lately ... this game is a great example ... his points have been so inefficient tonight ... the long bombs have to STOP ... they are just a turnover ... his d is freakishly bad but he was supposed to make up for that with his shooting and scoring ... that is just not happening right now ... he doesn’t seem to play with any passion ...

Outside of Trae, Gallinari is that guy for us.

Right now, Collins NEEDS to be that guy for us, but isn't quite ready to do it.   Hunter is more reliable in that regard, than John right now.
