Glad they broke out the Mint jerseys tonight. I was worried we wouldn’t see them again.

Best jerseys in the NBA to me

Eastley

Why does it look like an old Tobacco Road arena with a layer of smoke from the 10th row and up?

I feel like refs are allowing a physical game

Many fouls not called

I am still waiting for that Nurkic 3pt splash. Once that goes in, it will be snowball

Mich_Mercer

Well he just made one. He’s such a skilled big. Can do a little of everything.

He’s a better passer than I realized. He’s a very very poor mans Jokic.

How is PDX grilling us

Mich_Mercer

Bc Hornets.

Eastley

Moussa is really developing an around the rim offensive game

Sad that Josh can't string together consecutive impactful games

GoBobcats24

Lamelo getting hacked tonight

Mich_Mercer

For real… can’t get a foul call… and yet Portland has shot like 10 free throws

GoBobcats24

Grabbing and holding him, bumping him off his spot, etc

Eastley

Has Mark Williams shown up yet? He's barely visible out there

meloFan

I mean,Lakers are disrespecting us, the league is disrespecting us, the media is disrespecting us, why shouldn't refs?

Yeah, Mark is just so meh

Mich_Mercer

Totally… Mark is like two different players. Some nights he’s great… other nights, you can’t even remember seeing him play.

Eastley

We're like Team Spaz out there

meloFan

I like the ball movement there with Nurk

Eastley

Jesus we're a damned comedy troupe

meloFan

PDX is shooting like 73-9 Warriors

Mich_Mercer

Finally got a call.

Eastley

We're defending nothing. We're offensively offensive. This isn't a refs issue. It's a we're cooked issue

Mich_Mercer

This is true. Still some foul calls would be nice though.

meloFan

71 in a half is criminal, our defense is atrocious

73*

Eastley

They're running a layup line vs us trying to play Snooker on speed

Mich_Mercer

I thought Lamelo would be the best player on the court… but it’s Anfernee Hardaway… I mean Simons.

Geez

This Mark Williams situation is very interesting

It's like he has lost the will to play

He is going through the motions

Eastley

On rebounding, is he even going through the motions? It's more like he's witnessing other guys playing

Like he's often not even trying to get position on the offensive boards in the first half tonight

cltblkhscoach

Man what the hell is happening

meloFan

Ok what this game shows is blow it all up. Trade everyone you can, start over. This aint working

Mark is playing 0 effort, I mean matches the team

Eastley

He's so nothing out there

I'm not sure what the hell he's actually doing

meloFan

He is just watching the ball bounce around the rim, and somebody else grab it

We are shooting 20% from 3, they are 42%

Eastley

I'm amazed we're up to 20%

cltblkhscoach

One of those old 7 win Bobcats games. Sheesh

Eastley

Mark!!! Dammit

Mich_Mercer

Mark this half is playing very hard though. Why can’t he consistently try?

Eastley

Not really. Harder, yes. But not playing hard by any stretch

cltblkhscoach

This team always plays to the level of the competition in general. That's why the Wizards own us. They're not good enough to chill against anyone. Once they learn that we may start to have something

Eastley

At this rate coach, they'll never learn it

meloFan

So what are the chances we go on a 40-0 run?

Ok, Miles answered me with that turnover, a BIG ZERO

Eastley

Can we lose by 60?

cltblkhscoach

I think Jeff knows he has to turn this roster over

I've never seen Portland shoot like this since Brandon Roy was around

Mich_Mercer

They can’t miss.

This is the worst game I’ve seen Lamelo play.

Eastley

Can we just walk off the court at the end of the third?

3

From enjoying a win to a crushing defeat in a matter of days. Fortunately I didn’t watch except for a few glances.

4

Tied for the worst defeat in team history. Hornets Law did not like us beating the Lakers. Retribution
