WHAT THE FUCK JERAMI GRANT I LOVE YOU
Huge win.
Tough road stretch and injuries could’ve really started changing the narrative
I LOVE JERAMI GRANT
**NO DAME.**
**NO ANT.**
**NO PROBLEM.**
I FUCKING LOVE THIS TEAM
The Blazers just won a game. On the road. Without Dame. Against a team that won 64 games last season. And they did it with depth, solid defensive play, and clutch shooting. This honseslty feels like the best team we’ve had since 2000.
Suns announcers deserved to lose this game
Well that was shockingly unexpected
man f the refs for not changing the clock. we 100% had more than 1.0 seconds
gonna go broke buying jerseys for every player on the squad I LOVE THIS TEAM
Clutch af
6-2, just like my tinder profile says!
It had been a long flight. 222 days since the shuttle left earth. For 222 days they had sailed, through shrinking darkness towards the white hot furnace that scorched the land behind them. Surrounding him were the sleek walls of the Cronin Interstellar shuttle named “Trailblazer”, a modern work of art mustered up by Earth’s brightest minds.
They had one mission. Kill the Sun.
Rising temperatures had already shrunk Earth’s population to 3 billion. Things were not getting better. As famine set in and vegetation wilted, there only became one clear solution. One goal. Kill the Sun.
Jerami looked back at his team of astroballers. Good men. All of them.
“Are you there Jerami” the ear piece rings with the words of Admiral Billups and the team back on the blue ball. “We lost Damien and Ant. the Sun was too hot and it fried their systems. They aren’t going to be able to fire their iced-out hyperbeams. Your’re going to have to go manual.”
Jerami looks through the mic and nods. His coach nods back through the mi.He knows whats has to be done.
He pulls the hood of his pinwheel space suit over his head as he engages his Grav-Grips and glides out of the cock pit, planting his feet and hands on the hull of the hurling ship.
He approaches a small asteroid field. Quickly he throws the small orange shureshot balls attached to his waste at the oncoming space rocks. Dodging all of the material in a tight weave he drives to the white hot hole in the darkness, slicing like a needle through the very fabric of space and time.
He’s only going to have one shot. He turns and launches two well aimed balls at the hard resets on the iced out hyper beam lasers welded to the side of the Trailblazer Shuttles. At as the balls connect, both of the light blue Gatorade colored beams awaken, firing full capacity towards the fun, sizzling the super star.
Jerami throws his hands down and hits the emergency eject. As the main shuttle breaks off from the firing Lazers. A second booster knocks the ship on parabolic arc. Rerouting the astroballers on a return trip home, tapping into the gravity surge created by the a couple thousand super fans going buck wild. They had done it. The sun was cooled. Humanity had lived to fight another day.
Grants reaction was so delayed lol
LFG
That group interview was very fun. Love this team.
The vibes are soooo fun that group interview has me CHEESIN
What a shot man
dont care if it was a travel
karma for the Memphis bullshit calls
JEREMY GRANT CALLED FUCKING GAME! BLAZERS BASKETBALL YOU ARE SO BAD FOR ME AND I LOVE IT!
Injured Dame Lillard yelled out, “There you go! There you go.” Sharpshooter Anfernee Simons gave a look of pleasant surprise. Guard Josh Hart yelled out, “We got an [expletive] squad now.” And before Grant hit the locker room door, former NBA great Chauncey Billups hugged him and said, “Y’all look so different.”
The defense tonight was insane, credit to the Blazers and Chauncey for going out there and stealing one from Phoenix! RipCity baby!!!
I FUCKING LOVE THIS TEAM
Let’s do it all again tomorrow. 🤣
Listening to the suns announcers was painful. We are so spoiled.
Grant might be THAT dude.
But Nurk with the cold blooded 3 to take a lead has me in a fever.
JERAMI SZN
2 game winners for grant already, this team is clutch
Nurk really came through at the end. Jerami Grant though. Just got so loud at the bar for that last shot
This is why I loved the Grant acquisition, got a suitable 3rd option that’s had experience as a decent 1st option. Also Jusuf Curry is a new player form
Well, we are 6-2 this season when I wear a Blazer shirt!
And counting!
Grant and Nurk stepped up clutch in the end. Love it!
12/9/9 for justise
so close
I’m pretty sure league rules state that if a team has a b2b road game against the same team in the same building, if they win the first game they have legal right to the opposing teams homes for the night. Also they can enact prima nocta if they see fit.
Nurk unguardable in the 4th
I for one welcome our new Grant overlord.
We don’t have our top two guards. We even play a bit sloppier in the second half. But we won that on the back of Nurk and Grant. This team truly feels special
Nurk really pulled through in the fourth tonight
The suns commentators have tears in their eyes LMAO.
Walker looks super comfortable out there. Makes great reads and rebounds better than most. Keon looked great too, keep forgetting it’s only his second year! Having a lot of fun watching this team
So many people stepped up tonight, what an incredible game. Obviously Jerami gets all the love for his dominant performance but shout out to nurk for giving us a chance to win that thing down the stretch with his clutch buckets and offense rebound/put back and the 3. Keon, Nassir, and Justice were all great as well.
ALSO – THAT FIRST HALF DEFENSE WAS INSANE. Thats the most intense defense ive seen in years.
And with that win we take the season series from the suns which we haven’t done in a while and it’s huge when it comes to seeding
I am also $400 richer thank you for the really dumb line thank you Vegas
Damn Justice with 12/9/9 and 2 steals
The man plays winning basketball
Nurk was truly the Bosnian BEAST tonight. Incredibly impressed with his play down the stretch
