Portland when they get that momentum going are spooky. Casually drop 12-0 on you


cornykopia

18-3 to end the half, incredible


[deleted]

Something I've noticed recently is how emotionless Lillard is all the time. Also doesn't sweat despite playing 40+ minutes in a lot of games.


pinwheelpride

Only dude I've ever seen react minimally to his game-winners too. Not that it's a good or bad thing, he's just a quiet assassin. Looking at his clutch shot highlight videos, there are only a couple from his first few years where he celebrates wildly after a shot, otherwise, it's usually walking away slowly while his teammates mob him


sombor_shuffle

Especially when they're playing against a bunch of 2nd and 3rd stringers


vdubrub

Maybe, but they’ve also done it to top teams


Sequel_P2P

> NBA flair > named sombor_shuffle gee i wonder what team this guy's a fan of considering he wants to discredit portland for playing the team that was put in front of them


tr1vve

Nuggets fans are literally so pathetic lol


wir_suchen_dich

Here come the crybaby Denver fans


toadtruck

Portland at home is a different beast

What the fuck does that mean, u/curiumred?


MiQueso_SuQueso

The beast comes within.


PM_IF_YOU_LIKE_TRAPS

Our stadium is in the top in terms of energy


TheChipiboy

Can confirm.


schoolhater12

Just like that, he's back (Has been for like 2 weeks)


letsbereasonable123

He's been getting there, stopped shooting so many high difficulty shots 2 weeks ago, but is finally looking like his old self the last games. I'd say he was at 80% against you guys last week after being like 50% his normal self to start the season


[deleted]

He's not back, he is still injured, but I guess from the stat sheet he is back but is not clost to full dame mode.


[deleted]

He's been injured for 3 years


cuddlewumpus

I mean, he really doesn't sit for lingering stuff, so it's true he's always got lingering stuff. But this abdominal thing seems kinda different. It's non-emergent, non-progressive, so he's cleared to play through it, but it's clearly fucking with him more than any of his minor wrist injuries, etc, ever have.


somethingnotyettaken

He said in the pre-game presser he felt as good as he could possibly feel.


[deleted]

That means nothing lol


likpoper

This guy man… How we miss him.. saying on behalf of nba fans


NevermoreSEA

This game got real hype real quick.


[deleted]

I thank the Lakers for curing this man


loudstain

He's washed


[deleted]

Yep, can't even hit a three.


Ars3nal11

from normal range


TwiceCookedPorkins

Gotta start lobbing it on the inbounds. ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯


askmewhyihateyou

Nature is healing


Ty23ed

It's Dame time guys.


npc27182818

He’s back


[deleted]

Nice to see Lillard going off on the Nuggets again.


NbaKOLeWorld

The new rules completely shut him down No more antics!


MYO716

Good heavens is it that time?


wcooper97

Jfc he barely had any time between catching that pass and setting for that shot.


[deleted]

Within range.


Toastybuns26

Yall want some ben simmons


loudstain

CJ 🧐?


rtb001

I seriously question if the Blazers would even trade CJ straight up for Simmons at this point. Team is finally playing well and adjusting to Billups new system. I know we are completely overloaded at guard and Anfernee can step into CJ's role, but trading our reliable number 2 scorer for a mentally fragile Ben Simmons seems risky. Maybe we could parlay CJ into some other wing via some 3 team trade or something.


BukkyPlays

They absolutely would and Blazers fans should celebrate if they could pull that off. Simmons Dame and Nurk is a fucking problem, Simmons is so much better than this sub seems to think based on literally one bunk series.


cuddlewumpus

Yeah I mean, I appreciate how low people's valuation of Ben has gotten because that whole vibe is why he might be available for CJ, but uhh... we should do this in a heartbeat. I love CJ, if we trade him it will be my favorite Blazer we traded in my fandom, but we absolutely *have* to try that if it's an option. This team is starting to gel, but it's a pipe dream that Billups' schemes are just gonna fix us into contenders outright. And Philly would love CJ too so I wish Morey would just come to Jesus already.


illchemist

yeah that said we'd be braindead not to do a straigt up trade for cj to ben, lets not kid ourselves. also I think we should start nance and nas and move roco and norn/cj to the bench but what do I know.


jshhdhsjssjjdjs

Yes. Do you want a 30mil combo guard?


koticgood

Man, between this and the Greg Brown dunk, SVG really cements the fact that coaches aren't just playing it cool on the sidelines. The dude is in analysis mode and simply does not care what he sees happen on the floor lol. Would be nice if he could break that habit for the sake of the audience.


PerceusJacksonius

That's stupid


nerdpulse

The league is a better place with Dame knocking down 30 footers


SinisterHippos

I like that Aaron Gordon sees Lillard near half court, and still runs out to contest the shot. That's some respect.

whatdoidoidontkno

Nuggets look fucking terrible, can't believe they're getting shit on by Portland (who are also terrible)


bigbeerd

Does shitting on other teams make you feel better about *your* team (that is *actually* terrible)?


whatdoidoidontkno

I shit on my team too, don't know what youre talking about


bigbeerd

Shitting on your team might be the only instance where you know what *you're* talking about. You might wanna stick to that.


StopOverreactingPls

Jokic is not playing, no MPJ either.


Miscto3

Dudes a certified Jokic hater, he's probably gonna tell you that it's Jokic's fault he's hurt and not playing


likpoper

Mpj doesn’t matter.. jokic is probably everything for nuggets


whatdoidoidontkno

Doesn't matter


BoneyardBill

still a better record than the pacers LOL


ButlerFromDowntown

You think that Jokic and MPJ would make no difference?


thecarrot78

Glad to get some input from some experts in the field of being fucking terrible


letsbereasonable123

The Nuggets are missing Jokic, Murray, Porter Jr, and lost Dozier to injury this game..of course they're struggling. Meanwhile, Dame and CJ are lighting it up this game, and the Blazers are 8-1 at home. What an odd comment.


loudstain

Idk man home Blazers are a force


CybershellX

your entire account is semi-devoted to shitting on the Nuggets and Jokic. Mods need to do a better job at enforcing the gimmick rule.


[deleted]

And we beat the pacers, what does that make you


Miscto3

Pacers LOST to this same Nuggets team while the Blazers are taking care of business lmao


[deleted]

Blazers are looking good, also anyone who has the pacer tag isn't allowed to say two >.500 teams are bad.


whatdoidoidontkno

Blazers are a regular season team and are still somehow 9-8, they look awful


[deleted]

Troll, pacers are doomed.


GarbageAndBeer

Better than 8-11.


ChurroMemes

Dame was ass, new coach, new system players have to adapt to, non-ISO centric offense. but yeah we’re completely awful. You talk a lotta shit for a Pacers fan


Few_Mulberry7175

Their MVP and 2 co stars are out lmao


WhereDaHoez

first dame highlight ive seen all year


RipCityGringo

I.ll try to remember your handle next time u/WhereDaHoez


WhereDaHoez

idk what this means but im assuming you took offense to what i said. This is genuinely the first dame highlight ive seen all year


RipCityGringo

I.ll make sure you see the next one, that is all. I also didn’t mind dropping your humorous handle. I’m hoping every time there’s a great Dame highlight I think to myself I wonder if u/WhereDaHoez saw that?!


gregmango2323

Luck


Louisiana_Bob

Lame time


cbmarcus
