The Golden State Warriors lost another heartbreaker, this time to the Portland Trail Blazers thanks to a huge clutch three from Damian Lillard.
Here’s a quick recap with some of LGW’s comments from the game thread:
1Q: Warriors 29, Blazers 28
Eric Apricot: Dubs on track to win 160-0
sabrinasez: 160-100
Alex: Steph on pace to hit 14 3’s on 100% shooting
stopnpop: You forgot the second unit has to come in at some point.
rcknfn: Ugh! Moulder needs Scully to get his shot going
sabrinasez: The Buckets Are Out There
Abaddon: Good timing
Halftime: Warriors 56, Blazers 55
ServantOfLuna: Lillard hasn’t gone crazy on offense yet. Is it because of our defense?
Captain Jack: Yeah, Warriors have done a pretty god job of doubling him right when he’s about to shoot
Alex: Maybe he doesn’t want to risk shooting and losing his newly designated position as Best Point Guard In The League
AttilaTheHun: That or he’s waiting in ambush for the second half. Let’s hope it’s our defense.
3Q: Blazers 82, Warriors 80
Emmerick: Wtf? Horrible minutes :/
OGG Gurl: Looney looks gassed
Belilaugh: Did Fitz say this game had an “ominous” feeling? I don’t feel that at all lol.
Bobbita: Probably because dame hasn’t done anything and we’re still down. I still don’t feel that either though.
Final: Blazers 108, Warriors 106
Alv66: I mean, you saw that coming from approximately 9,530 miles away
Sleepy Freud: Why the fvck were they not doubling there?
Juicy J: This game is now awful, and i hate it
Abaddon: Lillard sucks all night, hits a couple of threes late and gets to be the hero
John Brown: Well they do call him Dame time
Eric Apricot: Ah well, a painful end, but “luckily” not close to the most painful loss this season
oh lawrdy have mercy!!!!
Steph and Dray both being held out for rest tonight - didn't even travel with team
So dissapointed with wiggins. Even with a great defense, we need more for a guy that gets paid 33 mill. Is he lost in the system? What botters me is that he cant even get at the free trow line with all his tools.
I mean, if we want a 3 and D guy we can get a great one for half of that money.
And wiseman looks like a 19 years old. he might be ready in 3 or 4 years.
Some guys here think he can contribute with big minutes next year...that wont happen..he looks so lost that it will take a lot of time.
Im all on board to get Beal. OThers guys like Vucevic can improve our team too a lot. Look at the Nets. we have the assets to do it.
Its painfull to see steph with the higest payroll in the league and with NO help on offense.
