[Game] Kings vs. Blazers, 1/13/21 7pm PST, 10pm EST

[SLAB]

Put Hassan back in

Or Holmes. Or Bagley.

 

[hrdboild]

For such a big guy, Nurkic falls down an awful lot.

 

[Iced Espresso]

That Haliburton turnover, Metu should of held him off.

 

[Tetsujin]

Never mind

 

[SacTownKid]

I don't mind the fire. I've seen Gentry yelling at Haliburton as well. Some people can take the yelling, some can't. Think Haliburton falls into the former.

The only thing is Walton doesn't have any legs when it comes to power moves. This is why it's a tough thing for a coach in his position. He should be able to do that, but nobody is going to buy into it. They aren't oblivious to the circumstances. His players gave up and the team stuck it through once. That's about all you get in this here scenario.

 

[SLAB]

A rare case of of Hali leaving his feet with nowhere to go leading to a TO.

 

[Tetsujin]

Haliburton got the old man finger roll game

 

[Woot!]

Holmes has as many assists as Fox in fewer min.

 

[Iced Espresso]

I just don't understand the needless Metu bologna

 

[SLAB]

I just don't understand the needless Metu bologna

Whiteside was definitely not in “Good Whiteside” mode... but Metu was downright awful.

 

[Tetsujin]

Buddy is ON FIRE

 

[Livinthedream]

Metu had more 4th qtr minutes tonight than Bagley's had all season. That was an odd choice by Walton.

 

[SLAB]

No they aren’t, Grant.... errrr, Doug. And you played through 2002. You don’t need to give props to these guys. Ever.

 

[Woot!]

A rare case of of Hali leaving his feet with nowhere to go leading to a TO.

The TO is rare, but he needs to learn not to leave his feet as often was he does.

 

[dude12]

Is Walton going to go back to Bagley?

 

[Kingz19]

Doug starting to miss Grant with this ref fluffing

 

[kb02]

Buddy's best all around game this season...so far.

 

[SacTownKid]

Whiteside was definitely not in “Good Whiteside” mode... but Metu was downright awful.

It's not really fair to Metu either though. "Hey, you've rode the pine all year here's some crunch time minutes to stave off a run."

 

[Tetsujin]

Nurk just allowed to camp out in the paint

 

[cwebb2002]

Is Bjeli in the dog house or something? Why metu?

 

[Livinthedream]

Is Walton going to go back to Bagley?

I think his night is done.

 

[Tetsujin]

It's not really fair to Metu either though. "Hey, you've rode the pine all year here's some crunch time minutes to stave off a run."

And it’s not like Bagley couldn’t have played there either.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Mark Jones had that little nugget planned

 

[hrdboild]

We're going to need some magic here in the last 5 minutes. Portland isn't beating themselves tonight.

 

[Woot!]

Dame/McC > Fox/Buddy, 57-50. Pretty good!

 

[Iced Espresso]

Metu

3 minutes -6 +/-

 

[SLAB]

And it’s not like Bagley couldn’t have played there either.

The one night he’s playing defense every single night too.

 

[Tetsujin]

Metu

3 minutes -6 +/-

Honestly just feel bad for the kid more than anything. Luke put him in a no win situation.

 

[Woot!]

Buddy's best all around game this season...so far.

By far.

 

[hrdboild]

Is Bjeli in the dog house or something? Why metu?

Did you watch the last Portland game? It's probably a good thing he's on the bench right now. That still doesn't explain Luke's aversion to playing Bagley in the 4th. Might be worth giving Whiteside a try though if Nurkic keeps killing us on the boards like this.
