[Used 2 B Hu]

Man, I'm really enjoying watching Melo play this season

Whats up with AD’s FT shooting? He is usually money

Looks like Portland is using the ol' HackaShaq defense against him

Pressure

Lame foul

 

[Retroram52]

11 missed free throws and 11 turnovers and we’re not yet at halftime. Lakers extremely fortunate to be down only 6. The Lakers have never led in this game so far. Just more sloppy play.

It’s hard to beat Portland when Dame and CJ are on. AD needs step up

 

[Retroram52]

Lakers are once again under 30% from the 3-pt arc. They still have not consistently fixed their shooting woes. Looks like AD is riding on LeBron's coattails tonight. 6 points for the half.

 

[Retroram52]

Kuzma is stinking things up again as well.

 

[Retroram52]

Now LeBron is missing FT's. Good grief this is embarrassing.

 

[Retroram52]

And with yet another 3-pointer by McCollum, the Blazers go up by four at the half. Time for me to head to the rack. Work tomorrow.

Lakers playing like ass. Tons of turnovers. Lots of missed FTs. Clanking wide open 3s left and right. Sloppy defense drifting too far away from good shooters. Yet somehow still only down 4? They're very lucky right now they aren't getting blown out

The officiating in this game been bad

it’s never great but the quality inside the bubble has been brutal

 

[The Derski]

Sometimes LeBron makes the dumbest decisions.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Melo on fire now too lol

 

[HurricaneDij39]

37-11 in free throws. The inevitable fix is in.

37-11 in free throws. The inevitable fix is in.

NBA needs to work on making it a little less obvious

 

[podsox]

nurkic looks like tall 6th grader that doesn’t know how to play basketball

 

[podsox]

no one on portland wants to take an open shot. prefer contested ones for some reason
