Is that really what gobert looks like?! His head looks tiny!
Is this the same team that beat the **** out of us by 30 or something? Or am I thinking of someone else?
Eh. Go Blazers.
All I want for Christmas is for Dame to make the Jazz go back to New Orleans.
Doubtful Mitchell will have another 1-10 game. It's certainly possible, but will be tough to get a win. Then again, Portland can sometimes play quite well in a game you'd think they will lose....only to stink it up in one they should win.
I figured let's do something different to start off this GDT so we don't have a repeat of what happened in the last matchup with these Jazz.
Joe Ingels looks so ****ing dumb
The Utah crowd looks like they only hug at arms length because that’s how god intended.
Gobert moving screen + holding lol
I really expect the Blazers to come out stronger tonight.
LET'S MAKE THE SOPHOMORE SLUMPER LOOK LIKE A CHUMPER
Please let this not be a repeat of our last game against the Jazz.
I used to like Utah..but not anymore
They truly think they are a good team…when they r not. .
Literally the only reason we're still in this game is because they misssed free throws.
Just wait. It will get way worse.
Jazz actually have a bench.
Might lose by 30 again
Nurkic looks lost against Gobert
But look how brooken our Offense is against a Elite Defense Team. That's why i have no Faith in this Team
Crowder hates us
Ingles looks like a plumber.
The Jazz are better at just about everything.
Dame tried to jump over Gobert.
Trailblazers: Where consistency goes to die.
When did Ricky ****ing rubio turn into Mark Price?
So When crowder goes up to shoot everyone on the entire team goes to the defensive board, no one sticks a hand up or anything...
Why do Blazeds suck
So bad against the Jazz ?
I had this as a scheduled loss
We never play Utah Jazz well at all or in Utah and on Xmas National tv. Blazers just don’t match up well with Utah.
When did Rubio start cosplaying as a Middle Earth dwarf?
Ingles doesn't look like he can play but he is sneaky good.
CJ sucks so bad. Sorry he just does. I don't care anymore
Rudy is blocking everything
Not me from switching over to pornhub then a nap
Jazz just toy with us. We are so poorly coached in comparison.
What’s up with us vs the jazz, we just can’t play vs them
Im dead inside fam. Merry christmas.
The Jazz are not good
I don’t get why we play so bad against them ?
Utah doesn't make a bucket in 3 minutes, still a 15 point lead. LOL.
Lol Gobert owns our entire team
Gobert has 7 ****ing blocks
Ingles just made ET look silly.
Now Dante Exum hits threea?
7 blocks by Gobert yet we still attack him
Of course Korver doesnt miss anymore
Wow Jae Crowder is the only Jazz player shooting under 50% tonight. **** this coach.
Ingles going 1.5 m.p.h gets layup after layup.
Ingles is very punchable, he’s going on my list with CP3, Rondo, KG, Draymond, Beverly and Rick Fox
Ingle Bells! Ingle Bells! Ingle all the ay!
I want a new bench for Christmas
Trade Cj McCollum
Does anyone know how to play defense tonight?
This is a big '**** you' to the fanbase - thanks squad!
Dammit Nurk. I wish he could be more like Gobert
Why didnt we do a hack-a-gobert? Take their momentum out of the game.
this is sad to watch....
So far this evening, I’ve had five rage-filled moments in which I’ve wanted to kick Nurkic in the ***. He has the worst body control of any human being alive.
If the team even comes close to winning it is a Christmas Miracle.
Glad Aminu is getting his 30 minutes. When you are coach's nephew, that's how it is.
20 point loss on Christmas! In front of a national audience...sad
Tips for everyone: Turn off the TV when Blazers are behind after 3 quarters. Save you stress and energy.
Turning into a carbon copy of last game
CJ is having a rough offensive night, but a lot of that is Mitchell's doing
He’s really working on defense
These finishes by Lillard against Gobert look easy but are INSANELY difficult.
Gobert moves on ALL his screens...
And he’s not even trying to be subtle about it.
Another pathetic performance against Utah
we are headed for another blowout loss, zero urgency on the defensive end yet again. MFers!
I think I am developing an irrational dislike for the Jazz.
Probably not Mitchell or Gobert though.
If Gobert is not DPOY, who do have instead?
If the Blazers made half the shots he altered or blocked, the game would be tied.
Ingles smoked Harkless
Well, that was a nice lump of coal in the shape of a turd for Blazers fans.
I dislike your basketball playing CJ McCollum
Way to embarrass yourself on national tv on Christmas!! This team deserves to get swept again. If they even make the playoffs. Nothing will change and they’ll just continue to waste Dame’s prime years!!
No fly zone with Gobert in there!
We are lucky Utah has missed wide open threes. They have had so many that are WIDE open
Utah is a really good defensive team. That doesn't help matters.
It’s a HUGE missing piece in our pick and roll game that we don’t have a lob threat
What’s our record in "Portland could easily win this" games this year?
I feel like it’s 0-25
Bah, that's a big shot from Exum
Do the Jazz have the answer for the Blazers? occasionally, but basically yes
Do the Blazers have the answer for the Jazz? No.
Ingles looks like a 35 year old homeless Terry Stotts.
With a drinking problem.
And he is miles better than Aminu and Harkless
Hmmm let's not play Utah in the playoffs, OK?
Utah just took us to the woodshed twice in the last week
Gobert took Nurk's lunch money -- with interest.
I just don't see a lot of hope right now..and I'm usually one of the more optimistic posters here..I don't see a direction
16 in the 1st half for dame. Gunna finish with 20. Man this guy can be so great but he just drifts in and out so much. It’s like he needs a personal motivator to remind him the talent he has and stay aggressive. Takes his foot off the pedal far too often
Cj only play well once per ten games
We need a shakeup. It doesn’t have to be blockbuster. But something needs to change. Players, management, or anything. I feel like we have been stagnant. Time to take the next step. (Hopefully for the better)
Thanks @trailblazers for ruining Christmas
Embarrassing but whatever
Won’t be enjoying those sweet Boxing Day chicken nuggets!
so much for getting revenge...
Always on national tv? I wonder what our t.v. record is.
Big ****ing trees standing in the paint all day should be called illegal D.
I hate the Jazz.
Anyway the refs are pathetic this year anyway.
Back up w 4 dance steps is the new move these ****ing refs let go.
Another pathetic game! It doesn"t have a play worked, so another year as one of the worst in assists. Stotts is limited and Olshey is weak! Portland has only Lillard, he doesn"t have a team, he lacks a SF and PF! Lack of will for some, CJ proved he was not on court again! Fire Stotts and Olshey!!! Trade CJ for a SF and PF!!!
4 points away from a free 6 piece.
This teams not worth cheering for. As much as i love dame he aint gonna get it done. CJ should go dominate the wnba, aminu and harkless would be bench warmers or waterboys in another team and the bosnian beast is too full of himself. Worst starting 5 in the league.
2 games against the Jazz and we have lost by a total of 51 points. we need to make a trade now.
Looks like only Denver gets Nuggets
Utah own Portland
Dame, CJ & Nurk: 16-45
We need a center with a command presence that can power up and put the ball in the hoop not an oaf with their feet glued to the floor.
Gobert just waltzed into the homes of every Blazer, stole their presents, stuck his tongue out and said “What are you gonna do about it.”
Say what you want about the 2018-19 Blazers
But whenever they play a game, you’re guaranteed that at least one of two teams on the court that night will be red-hot from three-point range.
I just don’t enjoy watching this team. They don’t defend, they don’t move the ball, they can’t hit open shots, everyone complains about not getting a foul as the other team quickly runs down the court and scores, etc, etc… I don’t care if they win, I just want to enjoy myself and watch a good game. It’s not even worth watching. No heart to be found.
I kept waiting to see PDX speed up the pace of the game. You simply can’t play against UTA frontcourt defense possession after possession with Rudy freaking Gobert parked in front of the rim daring anyone to try and score over them. Stotts made no adjustments tonight and the outcome wascwhat you would expect. Gobert was the best player on the court tonight. He simply out classed every single big we had including Nurk.
If we make the playoffs you can add UTA name right up there with GSW as teams to avoid all cost.
I hate losing to the Jazz. I can’t explain why but I absolutely can’t stand it... I’m gonna go take a long shower now.
I’ve been on the trade machine for a solid 20 minutes. WE HAVE NO ****ING TRADE PIECES.
