Great game. Amazing how everything looks better when the 3 ball goes in. Let's see if the effort is there tonight. Minny got chippy at the end of the game, so expect some rough fouls.
I think DB showing no quit to the last second of the Memphis game, (even looking like he wanted to drop the gloves with Edey the Giant at the end) might have set an example to inject some fight into his teammates for the Timberwolves game.
I’ve been all aboard the Timelord-is-Portland’s-best-center boat since they acquired him. It’s felt pretty lonely over here the past year, but a lot less so now. Glad to have you on board!
Hopefully they'll stay out more, I want to see the young core develop, these two guys are good but are not team players, and it's not like we need them to win us a championship this year or something. I'd much prefer to see the young core lose than these vets dry them out or clog the lane in a win that means nothing this season.
@@seventyfive7597 we’ve already been seeing the young core develop as it is!! This team literally has two players who have even begun their prime and three more who are juuuust at the early end of it, one of whom has been out all season. They’ll be alright. Bring everyone back, see what they look like fully healthy
love DA but i have to agree, Rob is this teams best center. After watching this game it made me realize how mono-skilled DA is. Rob is a vocal center that stuffs the stat sheet. He can playmake, pass, finish plays, rebound on both ends, and omg PASS DA is a good rebounder and jump shooter but doesn’t add much value outside those two things.
RW3 is amazing, guy is so good. I'd rather keep him and ditch ayton if possible. I've been saying that since they signed him. I love having 2 defensive centers.
Hope DA, Simmons and Grant get lower minutes to allow the actual future of the franchise develop, it's not like we need those 3 to win games for a chip this year, and also, without them, the young guys pass better.
Timelord is our HERO. but anyone talking shit about Ayton forgot about his stats late last season. Although soft - he is accurate and consistent in his FG, he is still a solid center.
You think Deni had a great game? Sure it was okay . But actually that'd be a below average night in last half season' standard of 20 pts 10 reb 4 ast ... I hope he gets back his confidence asap... Easy driving to the rim In and out passes The team gets so many open threes Don't let Ayton back!!! Him and ISO-Simons! The game is easier without them
I am sorry but ayton just does not fit well with the team offense. He clogs the middle where is hard for deni and the team to operate and since he come out to the middle to shoot the other team defenders are all around the perimeter making it hard for the team to shoot. While ayton is also bad on pick & roll and with low motor, he can’t really catch lob well like rob. And therefore no lob threat when he is on the floor. I really hope they can move on from ayton and move on to clingan and rob
Without Simmons and DA, the team was sharing the ball, the ball was moving finally. Did anyone notice the amount of hockey assists Deni had? That requires the whole team seeing the play together. So much better to see the young core than the "stars", the young ones play right.
To all the people in the comments bringing up Deni's ethnicity and making every video of him about freeing Palestine: Your comments are actively harming the causes you claim to be advocating for. Deni's identity is not a vehicle for your politics, and doing so exposes how deeply prejudiced you really are.
DB got 5 assists in this game. He’s been more of a pass first playmaker in the League before he arrived in Portland. I think Chauncey has asked him to be a scorer on this team?
Oh Ma God, what an outlier, what a syrange coincidence that when you have a blackhole and glaring defensive hole on defense and the worst screen setter and soft mentally and physically center ......wait for it....your see a cohesive team effort. I hope the 2 elephants are gone for good, this beat down fanbase deserves some hope.
Common denominator was no Simon’s and no Ayton. A trade package with those two would be enough for Portland to be a serious contender. Have to get rid of the players who lack the fire!!! Simon’s must go first though
Blazers r good enough to make playoffs and win a round but they need a coaçh who can make them believe it they r big and athletic they must learn to play more physical and value possesions
What it confirmed for me is that DA, ANT just need to be dumped somehow. They simply can't be included in the rotation. Invest minutes in Scoot, Shaedon, Toumani, Dalano, Rayan, Deni, Jabari, Jerami, Rob and Donovan. They have the value worth investing in and have the talent and edge to play winning basketball! We then gradually add pieces along the way. At this point in time, DeAndre and Anfernee offer very close to nothing because, the more we try and help them gain value, it occurs at the detriment of overall development and culture. Matisse is obviously a great competitor and defender but his inclusion depends on how well Chauncey can rotate 11 players. I'd back Chauncey and Joe Cronin in, if they saw it this way. If you disagree, I'm more than happy to hear your reasoning. RIPCITY.
I wasn't impressed at all.. To me they looked disjointed. Scoot couldn't even stay on the floor as he was in foul trouble the entire game. His 4th foul was a result of his poor ball handling skills and was offensive in nature.
Rob is not the Blazers best center. He's a good backup. He's not a good rebounder and when teams force him to create he's very limited. Health isn't the only reason the Celtics traded Rob Williams.
Mike’s praise for Senor del Tiempo caught me unprepared. Surprising athleticism? Yes. Rim protector? Again yes. Better than Ayton? Unlikely. Ayton is a true big man. Among undersized centers, I like him. Wish he had extended shooting range.
Much better…Banton and Scoot running the show got the whole team involved and invested
Scoot Deni & Camara all plying better without Ayton...
And ant!
ללא אייטון יש ריווח.. ודני במגרש פתוח או סמול בול הוא טוב!
Yeah, I can’t help but notice that they often play better overall when “Frustrayton” is in street clothes.
and without simmons as well
@@mattalley4330 Ouch!
This is the level of play I'm expecting from Deni on average. Now hope to see him starting to find consistency.
mike you’re tripping, blazers have the best court
“But that’s also the point of Basketball” 😂🤣😂 should make T-shirts !
Great game. Amazing how everything looks better when the 3 ball goes in. Let's see if the effort is there tonight. Minny got chippy at the end of the game, so expect some rough fouls.
The Packy shout-out made me lol

excellent Blazer game, keep it Red Hot & Rolling
finally some real modern sharing the ball basketball... trade ayton and simons and start hooping the crap out of this league 🎉
this channel is getting huge, ryan reynolds for the third sponsor!

Would love it if you went to Vegas
Love the show1 Question, how did they make the court look like that? Is it vinyl wrap like on cars?
Ant and DeAndre are going to remain out for at least two more games to see if this success if repeatable.
This is what a smart team would do...
@@TREESCARDSNHOBBIES no, it’s not

I agree! I hope Ant and DeAndre get traded to a better situation. The lack of fit is too glaring to not address.

Ayton for talent and picks
Ayton’s effort will continue to be questioned. I’m excited to see how the team plays without him for the next few. Hopefully RW and DC step up!
NBA variance. A terrible loss followed by a surprising good win.
Hope DA, Simmons and Grant get lower minutes to allow the actual future of the franchise develop, it's not like we need those 3 to win games for a chip this year, and also, without them, the young guys pass better.
Timelord is our HERO. but anyone talking shit about Ayton forgot about his stats late last season. Although soft - he is accurate and consistent in his FG, he is still a solid center.
Ant however......
so obvious that blazers are better off without Ayton and Simmons (spacing, effort, future etc etc)
Oh yah great point….we need to move them otherwise our core can’t grow
You think Deni had a great game? Sure it was okay .
But actually that'd be a below average night in last half season' standard of 20 pts 10 reb 4 ast ...
I hope he gets back his confidence asap...
Easy driving to the rim
In and out passes
The team gets so many open threes
Don't let Ayton back!!!
Him and ISO-Simons!
The game is easier without them
Deni is the type of player that if he is confident and doing fine mentally he's unstoppable but if he isnt he looks like a shadow of himslef
The things y'all are talking about with Deni are all age related. Developing his 3-point and controlling his emotions are achievable with time.
@@rileymcphee9429 Yea, people forget he's only 23

100%!!! Direct your efforts to those who have the political clout to move issues in the direction you support. Deni is not one of those people.
I think comments with a political nature, certainly racist, should be removed. This is off topic
Deni's ethnicity? Do you know Deni's father,Zofer Avdija is Serbian\Muslim???
True, especially that it IS free (again) since 1948 and reverted back to its original name 😂
DB got 5 assists in this game. He’s been more of a pass first playmaker in the League before he arrived in Portland. I think Chauncey has asked him to be a scorer on this team?

Trade ant!

Not convinced on Murray but would keep him at a minimum.
Deni Can do much better, this is just an average performance by his potential
I wasn't impressed at all.. To me they looked disjointed. Scoot couldn't even stay on the floor as he was in foul trouble the entire game. His 4th foul was a result of his poor ball handling skills and was offensive in nature.
lol congratulations on your commitment to being miserable
What is wrong with you
Rob is not the Blazers best center. He's a good backup. He's not a good rebounder and when teams force him to create he's very limited. Health isn't the only reason the Celtics traded Rob Williams.
what ? 😂
Healthy, Robs BB talent is obvious, he is a great player

Among undersized centers, I like him. Wish he had extended shooting range.
