The Pelicans aren't as bad as the Knicks, Cavs, or Timberwolves, but they are in the bottom third in terms of obvious organizational flaws.

Does he get to wear a big sash with that printed on it, or is it just a merit badge?

nuggets are the only one of the 1-3 seeds that are at all vulnerable in the first round but the jazz kinda suck

absurd back to back plays in the paint by slomo

time for david griffin to earn his money. i *think* he’s pretty good but you always have to watch it with guys who work the media.

Dame and Nurkic playing great hoops. Blazer bench looking like a trash fire, unless you count Gary Trent, Jr. as a bench player, which is not exactly true rn with CJ's fractured back.
― the unappreciated charisma of cows (Aimless), Saturday, 15 August 2020 19:36 (three years ago) link
yes dame and nurkic chemistry is amazing
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 15 August 2020 20:15 (three years ago) link
ja and dame trading punches *_*

Grayson Allen just a rock solid backup now, underrated part of that trade
― Matt Armstrong, Saturday, 15 August 2020 20:29 (three years ago) link
portland doing that thing they've done for years of playing at the *exact* talent level of their opponent which i guess keeps things interesting

Great call there

technical foul on grayson allen in the 4th quarter of an elimination game
― k3vin k., Saturday, 15 August 2020 20:33 (three years ago) link
Honestly... it seems like Grayson maybe doesn’t get the calls. He earned it but
― Matt Armstrong, Saturday, 15 August 2020 20:34 (three years ago) link
Clean block, pretty reasonable reaction to the bad call
― Matt Armstrong, Saturday, 15 August 2020 20:35 (three years ago) link
allen absolutely had all ball there but otoh lol at grayson allen
― Clay, Saturday, 15 August 2020 20:35 (three years ago) link
you’re just very rarely going to get the benefit of the doubt when you swipe down like that in midair
― k3vin k., Saturday, 15 August 2020 20:37 (three years ago) link
He didn’t swipe down
― Matt Armstrong, Saturday, 15 August 2020 20:38 (three years ago) link
Also yet another awful example of coaches not using their challenge
― Matt Armstrong, Saturday, 15 August 2020 20:39 (three years ago) link
Two players jumping up and down, absolutely sure it’s a bad call
ok, across. you know what I mean
― k3vin k., Saturday, 15 August 2020 20:39 (three years ago) link
So a block basically
― Matt Armstrong, Saturday, 15 August 2020 20:40 (three years ago) link
it’s a bad call but one you don’t expect to get the benefit of the doubt on, which is why players are taught not to do that
― k3vin k., Saturday, 15 August 2020 20:40 (three years ago) link
some real garbage ball going on out there!
― Clay, Saturday, 15 August 2020 20:41 (three years ago) link
I don’t think players are taught not to block shots

carmelo anthony isoing on anthony tolliver, it’s the NBA on ANC!

matt
The alternative there is to let him dunk. Skeptical that this is the coached alternative
Iguodala swipes down on people all the time btw
― Matt Armstrong, Saturday, 15 August 2020 20:46 (three years ago) link
that should be a rip through on nurk?
― k3vin k., Saturday, 15 August 2020 20:46 (three years ago) link
some goofy assed basketball going on here

i love games when mccollum randomly hits 4 straight daggers in a row

ha yes i just texted a friend that this 4th quarter is straight up a blazers bubble blueprint xp

Bit of a swipe by Gary Trent on that block

rock solid back up greyson allen playing the role of traffic cone on that play
melooooo

Admittedly Grayson didn’t block Lillard’s shot that time but coaches tell you not to do that
― Matt Armstrong, Saturday, 15 August 2020 21:02 (three years ago) link
i'm very happy personally for the hall of famer and classic blazer player carmelo anthony who i always trusted from day one would be integral to the success of this team
― Clay, Saturday, 15 August 2020 21:02 (three years ago) link
this version of melo feels like a replacement level player which would be pretty great for the blazers next season
