@@hitmanl520 anytime we drove they "let us play it out" but if someone on their team drove instant foul. And somehow Jokic was sitting there whining like a baby all game over them calling fouls on him for grabbing enes everytime we ran a pick and roll
Amazing job by the nuggets and refs. Also amazing job to Terry stotts for leaving Nurk in with 5 fouls knowing they were making terrible calls. 1-1 let's win the two at home.
I cant believe this team went out there tonight and gave that type of effort in a playoff game. Its not like the game was out of reach. They were playing like they were down 30 from the tip. Damian Lillard is the only one who wanted to win...... lastly, if i see Kanter on the floor at the same time as Jokic I will literally go to portland and strangle stotts myself
We could've came back multiple times, but this is where I blame the refs. Everytime we got to about an 11 point lead they would call some dumb call and destroy the momentum. Dame being cold the second half didn't help either.
@@davemcbibbity5149 unfortunately dame can’t be hot by himself there’s only so long he can keep momentum for... his teammates were nowhere to be seen kmft
@@whereisceo yep. You'd think seeing someone pull up from half court and make 6 straight threes would give the other guys confidence but CJ didn't even start taking shots until the 3rd quarter
it'd be great for Portland to market a jersey for Dame where instead of his jersey number zero, they would put a circle bisected by a long vertical line (from top to bottom of jersey) representing the mid court line and jump ball area -- this represents both the number zero and his nickname Logo Lillard. Also, for his last name, the third "L" in his name can be represented by the same long vertical bisecting line. Hope it becomes an iconic design and a top-seller. Thanks!
@Facts Don't care about your feelings What facts? They scored 60 points in the first half- the problem was clearly the defense, not the offense. Btw, you sound like a middle school Ben Shapiro fan.
@Facts Don't care about your feelings The Trail Blazers are consistently at the top of the league in terms of offensive rating, even a few years ago when they had Aminu and Harkless starting. Dame’s easily one of the best players on the offensive end. You’re acting like he’s Collin Sexton or something.
@Facts Don't care about your feelings I mean, ok? No one is arguing that he’s a perfect player. My point this entire time was that the defense is the main problem, and Dame’s “deficiencies” aren’t what lost Portland this game. Also I don’t think you understood why I brought up Sexton. Try again.
I want to tip my hit to Denver but I honestly felt the refs dominated this game. Think about this. Nurkic never fouls out. He fouled out early in this game. Then we had 2 flagrant called on us when we never get called for flagrants. Very very suspect reffing all night. The effort wasn't there but the refs never allowed the Blazers a chance.
If u was watching game nurk and Robert cost the game simple they both was getting killed in the paint on both sides I still don’t understand why they let hassan go Nd he led the league and blocks and average a double double 😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑 worst game I watch by them in a long time other than Dame performance Sad to watch
@Facts Don't care about your feelings if your blaming it on melo u 100% wasn’t watching the game we killed bad on the boards Nd the paint because don’t let those 13 rebounds make it look lik he did sum out there he can’t guard joker to save his life ik he embarrassed how he playing against the team tht traded him plz watch the game
@Facts Don't care about your feelings bro I’m im jus saying off what I see dude I watch almost every game this year nurk is a all around basic center he’s only elite at passing this man weigh more than everybody on the court and can barely can do anything with joker on offense it’s embarrassing every team have a above average center in west in playoffs Nd we don’t hope he prove me wrong next game cuz we need it
They lost their composure on this game and .defense was off , lots of turnovers etc etc 😂 In spite of these things they did try just it wasn’t their night. Thank God its best of seven games 😂
if dame scored 100 points maybe we would have a chance to win
Nah he'd probably have to make a game winner and have 103 for us to win.
@@davemcbibbity5149 on god
Can’t win when the refs only let one team play defense

Goddamit stotts
@Facts Don't care about your feelings The fact is your heavily favored Luggets are 1-1 and lost their home court advantage.

Terry stotts should’ve even made adjustments when dame was being clamped up in the second half...But then again DAME is Terry stotts game plan
Superb coaching by Terry Stotts over Malone. 🔥
Stotts' playoff adjustments have always been: "Dame pls go nuclear cause idk what I'm doing"
It’s rough watching him drop high numbers on the wrong side of a blowout. p a i n
Beautiful game from CJ mccolum with flagrants, many tov, and fouls👏👏👏
Portland gang right here

Remember Dame’s awesome performance, but everything else out of mind. We’re getting game 3 with INTENSITY back at the Rose Garden!
MIA IN THE SECOND HALF ALONGSIDE WITH CJ AND MELO AND SIMONS GOOD JOB NURKIC POWELL AND OK JOB TO COVINGTON
Blazers Legend Damian Lillard
Did his best and no one else not named CJ or Powell helped out much 🤦♂️
We should’ve kept Gary...
@@whereisceo
Hell no. Powell > Gary in every area of the game except effort.
@@MK-ms4uz exactly my point in the post season we need someone like Gary someone who’s willing to hustle as hard
With this energy I sadly don’t see Portland making it out the first round
DAMIAN LILLARD IS THE GREATEST BASKETBALL PLAYER IN THE ENTIRE NBA HISTORY.
A lot of no calls every night smh
Conspiracy fr
Fire stotts or I’m changing teams and I’ll take dame with me
Lets see the outcome first bud, it's a series not one game.
@@stopndrop4588 are you stupid????
Dame needs help. He can’t do this alone
@Compton NNN NBA would block that trade, Bucks would be unstoppable with Dame lol.
0:29 0:35 bomb
BRUH THIS NIGGA DAME THE TRUTH
I believe Portland will win next one
Go Blazers
Something is lacking with Lillard's style of play: he has to make his teammates involved more. Volume shooting by one individual won't help.
that's true but honestly it was defense that kicked our ass tonight
He had 10 assists. Anyways it’s not like that matters- we lost due to defense, not anything related to offense.

Since Steph is out of the playoffs Dame thought he would fill in

We should’ve kept Whiteside and Hood.

@@Freestyle2eat Trust me, Melo will be a scapegoat. But when hes hot, they still bench him but bring him back In the 4th cold as hell.
