#Nuggets 137
Poor Blazers. Not yet! Two left!
Nuggets bring some real playoff air into these days. Again, they rally back in the fourth quarter and overwhelm their opponent in OT.
Baba Nikola 35/14/13/5/2/6/2 slays aliens and golems on his way.
#Pelicans 106
#Trail_Blazers 118
Blazers still on their mission to not have a loosing season and good on track. Four games left and they need to split them to at least be 42 but usually they can turn it on when they want, now they can proof, by themselves, the most!
#Trail_Blazers 114
#Nets 95
Seven Blazers in double digits to four on the Nets side. Nexs.
#Trail_Blazers 103
#Sixers 109
Sixers flex in the third taking the game away from hustling Portland.
No Embiid - no Maxey. Meant a lot of guard movement which the Blazer tooka as an invite to shoot 53 3s and make 17, rather bad and Philly just admitted to
#Jazz 114
#Trail_Blazers 124
Never-played-like-that Jazz give up another one to the Blazers.
Blazers clear the bench in the last minute.
Henderson 25/5/3/1b/5t/2f of the bench was +11.
#Hornets 103
#Trail_Blazers 101
TheFiredepartement needs all their powers for this Blazers blaze!
Look at this:
#Trail_Blazers 101
#Hawks 135
Jooo. Tired Blazers couldn’t hustle last night. Hawks take it easily:
#Trail_Blazers 121
#Bulls 112
Blazers had to actually use their abilities to keep the Bulls away. A dense defensive second half forced by the Blazers gave them 19 of their 31 free-throws and the Bulls had only 8 anymore then. Concentrated, boiled down to the minimum win for the Blazers.
#Timberwolves 124
#Trail_Blazers 121
Auuuuuu! The Wolves had to use all of their strength against the Blazers and can decide the game way at the end after enduring 15 lead changes.
Wow!
Edwards 34/4/4/2s/5t/2f with the scoring hand was becoming a nightmare again for opponents and opponent coach,
#Trail_Blazers 92
#Suns 77
No Avdija after one minute because of his lower back had no influence on his Blazers blazing the Suns last night.
Missing their middie-masters gave the game to the Blazers, just like that!
Clingan 23/13/3/1/4/5/1 &
Grant 23/2/1/1s/1b/2f had field days.
#Sixers 118
#Trail_Blazers 135
Blazers blaze the Sixers in the second half.
They came out of the halftime-break like AAAAHHHHH!
Deni 26/10/8/2/1/1/2 boringly good.
Camara 30/3/1/3s/3t/3f excitingly good, both score the crucial buckets in the third to put a 20-point-cushion between them
#Suns 130
#Trail_Blazers 125
And there we have the game with the tale of two halves.
Blazers were fire in the first half and the Suns were fire in the second, with the better end for them. Portland’s hot-hand from three left them in the second, while the Suns one turned on.
#Cavaliers 130
#Trail_Blazers 111
Jarrett Allen 40/17/5/2/4 with a clean career game! That ain’t a thing but he has it now! Frame that Stat-Line!
Allen’s dominance inside made this game be no contest. Blazers shooting 31% from three while the Cavs had 47% didn’t help either. 50 FGs for Cleveland.
#Trail_Blazers 97
#Knicks 127
KAT 14/20/3/1b/1f
Brunson 26/1/3/2s/1t/1f
OG 24/6/3/1b/3t/3f
Hart 20/6/5/2/1/2/4 all starters into
Kolek 13/2/4/1s/2t/1f &
Diawara 10/3/2/1s/2t/2f of the bench have the Knicks winning sovereign again.
#Trail_Blazers 111
#Wizards 115
Washington’s starters can always turn it around in this game after losing 9 straight.
Sarr 29/12/3/2/6/2/1 was shooting 38% on 29 shots, making 11 and having 4 of 5 free-throws while blocking them six times.
#Trail_Blazers 94
#Celtics 102
Wire to wire. The Celtics never let Portland do it’s thing. They get to the line 30 times but only make 20, while trailing in FGs made, all game.
Had no solution. As if someone was missing, a trick, a ‘can-opener’, as we call them in german-sports-business.
#Raptors 110
#Trail_Blazers 98
Raptors have seven players in double-digits - the Blazers only five. Tells you the tale of the game. Being a good second-half-team, the Blazers can make it close into the fourth but the Raptors were never going to really let them.
No Avdija.
#Heat 110
#Trail_Blazers 127
Healed up Blazers welded themselves together quickly last night.
Avdija 20/7/4/3t/3f with breath left on forward.
Sharpe 27/7/3/4s/6t/3f said 'let me work a bit harder for some' and
Love 20/4/4/2t of the bench is 'sure like a metronome' in the meanwhile.
#Trail_Blazers 97
#Warriors 119
La la-la La la-la La. Warriors correcting their standings.
Went 23 for 57 from three last night with
Curry 7/4/11/1s/1t/1f only making 2/8 threes, his only field-goals and yet there was no contest. A Kerresque win! Here:
#Knicks 123
#Trail_Blazers 114
Josh Hart 18/3/6/2/1/4/4 was back and New York wins decisively. They needed this. Portland with it’s usualities, getting the lead at the start of the game and in the fourth quarter again but timely
Brunson 26/6/8/1s/2t/4f and undeniable
#Rockets 105
#Trail_Blazers 111
Missing-too-many-men Rockets had to take it from the Blazers again.
In a whirlwind of a second half the Blazers turn on their impressive fourth-quarter-form and steal one after trailing with 13-points at the start of the fourth.
#Rockets 102
#Trail_Blazers 103
Deni Avdija 41/6/2/1s/5t/1f beats out
Kevin Durant 37/4/1b/3t/2f. The game boils down to the two faces of their teams giving it back and fourth in the second half with the better end for the Blazers
#Jazz 117
#Trail_Blazers 137
C’mon let me go. Nothing to see here. Please move on with your days. Listen to Zach or the ESPN boys or Yyahoo duos, No Dunks, maybe KG today.
Or nothing with basketball anymore!
Read a Lyndon B Johnson biography, just have a nice day!
#Trail_Blazers 115
#Spurs 110
Donovan Clingan 24/12/4/5f had a phenomenal game but fouled five times and missed three of six sweets yet he stayed positive (+1) and
Deni Avdija 29/11/10/1b/2t/2f almost didn’t leave the field on two fouls only and played 38 minutes.
Spurs lost on fouls and
#Trail_Blazers 95
#Thunder 124
Blazers lead for 18 seconds at the start of the game, then all-plus-Thunder evaporate them. Those losses they had look smaller and smaller the more time goes on.
SGA 30/2/6/4s/3f making his case relatively alone now,
Holmgren 12/10/1/2/6/4/3 growing on
#Mavericks 122
#Trail_Blazers 125
Nailbiter for Portland fans!
Thompson 14/1/1/1s pump fakes two Pels straight into the atmosphere for a last shot from three with the chance to win but sadly missed the tough shot, for Mavs fans. Dallas was cooking the you-have-to-lead-then dish of Coach Spo
#Thunder 119
#Trail_Blazers 121
You can take the team away from coach but you can’t take coach out of the team! It is the Blazers who take the first W against OKC.
Avdija 26/10/9/2/1/3/3
Holiday 22/6/3/1s/4t &
Grant 20/5/5/1b/1t/5f were above 20 scoring and six players in double-digits in total
#Nuggets 107
#Trail_Blazers 109
The Nuggets were robbed. Leading comfortably most of the game, this should have been an easy win but
Grant 16/5/2s/1b/2t/3f who could get and make two crucial free-throws at the end refined a Blazers-run for the lead and
#Trail_Blazers 136
#Jazz 134
Even if the lead only changed 3-times in this game it was a fight of a game. Both teams had good things going. An answer to what -they- pulled from behind their back like Toons,
#Trail_Blazers 122
#Lakers 108
Reaves 41/4/5/3s/8t/2f continues his ‘why didn’t you draft me again?’ tour and it’s a party. Only without a win tonight because the Trail Blazers have not stopped being a good team and continue developing, under the circumstances.
