vs. POR: Opponent Game Thread Highlights

Today’s Opponent Game Thread host: Blazer’s Edge.

Man that is one empty arena
I thought Utah was supposed to have a [Rose Garden]-esque atmosphere?
by JAnderson98VR on Feb 1, 2013 6:08 PM PST

Super quiet in Energy Solutions Logistics Synergies Insert Weird Sounding Business Term Here Arena.
by Arby on Feb 1, 2013 6:12 PM PST

I cant watch man. Nobody wants to broadcast Utah games
by bowdown on Feb 1, 2013 6:19 PM PST

Jazz announcers…
terrible?
by jnewhouse on Feb 1, 2013 6:21 PM PST

Pretty much. They nicknamed Millsap “Hoopdini”? Really?
by Norsktroll on Feb 1, 2013 6:22 PM PST

Is it Houdini or Hoopdini? I always thought it was the former but the latter makes so much sense. Does it follow that it then makes too much sense for Boler and Harpring?

have we scored since LA went out?
by Tyler Durrden on Feb 1, 2013 6:33 PM PST

Nope.
by Timmay! on Feb 1, 2013 6:33 PM PST

Why does JEffries have to be involved in the passing?
by bowdown on Feb 1, 2013 6:33 PM PST

Going to watch LAL at Minny instead.
by bowdown on Feb 1, 2013 6:41 PM PST

Is it bad when I get drunk before the game starts.
by Sheed30 on Feb 1, 2013 6:43 PM PST

Hickson’s arms are too short for him to get a catch in the post against Kanter.
by BRoyInThe4th on Feb 1, 2013 6:43 PM PST

We could have the two worst players in the league
One of which is a second stringer.
by heybabydrinkyourmilk on Feb 1, 2013 6:43 PM PST

Just 2?
by TheOdenator52 on Feb 1, 2013 6:46 PM PST

Didn’t Price light up the Blazers last year when he played for the Suns?
by Mrmora on Feb 1, 2013 6:46 PM PST

No.
by Arby on Feb 1, 2013 6:48 PM PST

Hmm… Well I’m just used to scrubs from other teams lighting up the Blazers, I guess I thought he did last year.
by Mrmora on Feb 1, 2013 6:49 PM PST

what’s jerry sloan doing as jazz games recently
is that normal?
by permaswoon on Feb 1, 2013 6:47 PM PST

I’d like to see a reality show with Karl Malone and Jerry Sloan as the new The Odd Couple
by TheOdenator52 on Feb 1, 2013 6:49 PM PST

You know what’s wrong with this Jazz team?
They are FILLED with a bunch of Blazer Killers. They don’t have any NBA stars but are just a bunch of Blazer Killers.
by jenstcy on Feb 1, 2013 6:47 PM PST

IS THERE SOME SORT OF LID ON THE BASKET!!!!!!!??????
by jenstcy on Feb 1, 2013 6:51 PM PST

My new rule
Don’t start watching Blazer games until the second half
by leseri on Feb 1, 2013 6:52 PM PST

My new rule
Don’t watch the Blazers on the road unless DRUNK!
by TheOdenator52 on Feb 1, 2013 6:53 PM PST

Rule followed
by Sheed30 on Feb 1, 2013 6:53 PM PST

Matthews doesn’t reward LMA for running the floor. Way to go Wesley. Great team work.
by BRoyInThe4th on Feb 1, 2013 6:53 PM PST

Its nice to see the old mathiews from last season back.
Where he can’t make layups and refuses to pass to open teammates on the break
by PortlandPhil on Feb 1, 2013 6:53 PM PST

Lamarcus
Did u see al Jefferson school Lma on that last play?? Goodness he made Lma jump so high.. Lma defense is pathetic
by AsmaraBlazers on Feb 1, 2013 6:57 PM PST

why don’t we set picks and move the ball like they do?
by jenstcy on Feb 1, 2013 7:02 PM PST

LMA hook shot blocked by Al Jefferson.
Well
by Cablinasian on Feb 1, 2013 7:02 PM PST

All Jefferson gets as far off the floor as Randolph
by TheOdenator52 on Feb 1, 2013 7:03 PM PST

god, Jazz announcers are making me angry
by jnewhouse on Feb 1, 2013 7:04 PM PST

Why, they are the Utah Jazz. They aren’t even close to being a contending team. They are going to be stuck in the middle for the few seasons. With Lillard and LMA we have a bright future.
by BRoyInThe4th on Feb 1, 2013 7:06 PM PST

“It’s a double-dini night from Millsap”
Worst catchphrase/nickname idea ever.
by Norsktroll on Feb 1, 2013 7:06 PM PST

The Big Al one is driving me nuts.
by FPS NorthWest on Feb 1, 2013 7:06 PM PST

Question: By “the Big Al one,” does he mean…”Big Al”?

Paul Milsap’s an unrestricted free agent this summer, isn’t he? hmmm……
we need a center tho…
by jenstcy on Feb 1, 2013 7:16 PM PST

He might be worth signing
as a trade piece.
by Hipster Olympic Team! on Feb 1, 2013 7:18 PM PST

Hmm. might not be such a bad idea.
roughly 15-8… might be someone that could contribute to our bench..
by Sheed30 on Feb 1, 2013 7:23 PM PST

that hurt
by jnewhouse on Feb 1, 2013 7:25 PM PST

So did that…
by JAnderson98VR on Feb 1, 2013 7:25 PM PST

Yeah MAtthews you’re getting roasted by Foye. Pathetic.
by BRoyInThe4th on Feb 1, 2013 7:25 PM PST

do. not. leave. foye. open. on. the. 3. pt. line. thank. you.
by jenstcy on Feb 1, 2013 7:26 PM PST

I just heard the jazz commentators say they are built for the playoffs. I scoffed.
by Sheed30 on Feb 1, 2013 7:32 PM PST

No matthews can’t be hurt
by Sheed30 on Feb 1, 2013 7:36 PM PST

See you next season
by Sheed30 on Feb 1, 2013 7:36 PM PST

Well, uh-oh.
by Timmay! on Feb 1, 2013 7:36 PM PST

oh no.
by jenstcy on Feb 1, 2013 7:36 PM PST

Oh no.
by annthefan on Feb 1, 2013 7:36 PM PST

And so the tank begins…
by JAnderson98VR on Feb 1, 2013 7:36 PM PST

SHABAZZ IS OURS!!!
by MiledAnimal on Feb 1, 2013 7:37 PM PST

I dread the influx of “let’s start tanking” fanposts if Wes is hurt.
by Timmay! on Feb 1, 2013 7:40 PM PST

I wish you had posted this before I typed up thirteen paragraphs in my new fanpost.
:(
by Cablinasian on Feb 1, 2013 7:42 PM PST

Randy Foye and Al Jefferson.
The Blazers are losing to the 2009 Minnesota Timberwolves.
by Cablinasian on Feb 1, 2013 7:43 PM PST

lol
how Hickson, Babbitt, and Claver combined to miss that rebound, I don’t know.
by Cablinasian on Feb 1, 2013 7:45 PM PST

there is a perfect example of what people say about hickson
fought his teammate for that rebound and it lead to a putback for utah
by permaswoon on Feb 1, 2013 7:45 PM PST

Hickson is an idiot. A freaking idiot. God this guy is rediculous.
by BRoyInThe4th on Feb 1, 2013 7:50 PM PST

Stotts, spend all freakin’ Summer teaching LMA and Lillard every detail of the pick and roll.
by Timmay! on Feb 1, 2013 7:53 PM PST

They could totally Stockton-and-Malone the league
With LMA’s range and Lillard’s ability to drive and shoot.
by Timmay! on Feb 1, 2013 7:55 PM PST

I would just settle for them totally Stockton-and-Malone Utah for this game.
by jenstcy on Feb 1, 2013 7:56 PM PST

…
Why does Babbitt exist?
by JAnderson98VR on Feb 1, 2013 7:53 PST

He’s more like a philosophical concept
The search for the next Larry Bird. Or at least Chris Mullins.
by Norsktroll on Feb 1, 2013 7:54 PM PST

Randy Foye is justifying the Blazers picking him in the draft.
by MiledAnimal on Feb 1, 2013 8:09 PM PST

he’s 4-17
by CleBlazer on Feb 1, 2013 8:10 PM PST

the jazz have a hit out on their former players
by Tyler Durrden on Feb 1, 2013 8:10 PM PST

team playing stupid
by CleBlazer on Feb 1, 2013 8:12 PM PST

We need Tracy McGrady right now.
by jenstcy on Feb 1, 2013 8:12 PM PST

I don’t know how you can dagger your own team into a loss, but if there’s a JJ, there’s a way.
