Respect to all players. Absolutely incredible game to watch. That’s what the NBA is all about
thanks bro!! im a playa too
LaPretty perfect example how an singular free throw can change A series
+Little strawberry and were beating you out our starting center,your lucky you’ve won 1 game
+Little strawberry not
https://youtu.be/HApiTs0Ad-0
Best series to watch in the West ???
I like that Jokic is continuing to use targeted assaults against Kanters injured shoulder and the refs refuse to call fouls
https://youtu.be/Kw1xQCONHz4
Ryan Orr I’m Niners Dubs Giants & Sharks and I don’t know who I’m rooting for in the series. Boggie owns joker, if he was healthy I’d rather see the nuggets, with him out, I’m not sure, liked seeing them both exhaust the energy of 2 games in 1…lol…anyways in your opinion who would dubs beat easier DEN or POR?
Agreed go BLAZERS
+Your Friendly Neighborhood Smark damn facts bro…these 2 teams are neck n neck
Facts
that was like a 4 hour game lmao
Liberty Lillibridge thats why you dont eat taco bell and drink dark liqour at the same time youll end up taking a 5 hour long dump and missing the game of a lifetim
Little strawberry i feel for your toilet my friend
This comment so crazy I literally did the same thing last night no cap
Great game from both sides. Incredible finish
Man, Jokic basically played 2 games in 1 ??
+Little strawberry he played 64….. Regular game is 48…
He better be “walking like a zombie”
That’s what I was thinking. It’ll be interesting to see how much energy he has for game 3.
Alan Koslowski I think they should try to limit Jokic a bit for next game, and start playing Plumlee more to avoid any potential injuries.
Maybe he would have more energy if he spent less time doing things like this: https://twitter.com/Supreme_Gifs/status/1124521560365195264
The first _quad overtime_ playoff game in *66 years*
playoff game..we had a 4 ot game this year actually bulls hawks
+Asmosis Jones Nobody likes to remember that
It was first quad overtime PLAYOFF game in decades.
Please edit this comment to include the word “Playoff”
Lol I fixed it
Y’all just made Jokic lose weight and get shredded after this game. Y’all done messed up now.
Mike Jones that’s not how it works bud ??
Great comment!!
+Deandre Jackson sarcasm
What a great game by both teams so glad Blazers won though
The whole smoking section of our bar was screaming!!
I wanted the Blazers to win, but low key wanted a 5th OT cause why not
+Jaye Soto ☠️☠️☠️☠️
+Shaun Roberts Definitely. Sudden death then a shootout. Lmao.
+Matt Laclair oh ok I thought it would go to a point where whoever scores first wins
Oh my bad I was thinking how they do it in the g-league
+Shaun Roberts lol this ain’t hockey
CJ, Hood, Kanter and Harkless all made great contributions that gave Portland the W. All of those guys deserve a pat on the back incredible performance of sheer will. Rip City!!!!!!!
hood outplayed barton..thats why they won
Idk about that Bartom had a career game. Maybe nor statistically but he was busting his ass making it super difficult for Portland.
Ya.. Lillard could of had a better game but at least they won!
+Formerly Known yeah that was one of the best games I’ve ever seen Barton play. Portland just has a bunch of shooters. Barton was all over Portland, and they still made crazy shots. Glad he did play great tho, bc others weren’t having as good of a game as he was. Hope he does it again so they can get a w in Portland before going home. This is one of the best matches I’ve seen in years.
+Force 5 McCallum made up for what Lillard didn’t do. It’s hard to defend a couple players like that.
Jokic missed that ft on purpose so the game can end lmao
+c j rocket league is a good game that actually takes skill
+Matt Scarey salty nugs fan
+Matt Scarey he is a good player. Hes incredible but not fun to watch. It is much more fun to watch a guard light it up.
+UWGOPACKGO no it doesn’t ? know wonder why lossers like you play it??
+c j explain yourself. And also Have u even played it?
Also u should really learn how to spell. That skill proves very helpful…oh wait you watch wwe. Rip your brain cells.
Dame: CJ, have u seen my watch tonight?
CJ : I had it for like 10 mins but lost it.
R.Hood: Let me try it ! ok!?
Respect to every single player，historic game！
best meme for this game would be captain america “i can do this all day”
Hail hydra !
Y
Just y
This comment lol
??
Blazers been putting up some classics this playoffs
+Matt Laclair Dame had 28pts, 8 ast, and 6 reb. It’s not like he DIDN’T show up. He just hasn’t been shooting at an unreal clip like he did against Westbrook. Give credit to Denver’s perimeter defense.
Im not going to lie but Mcollum carried, but dame was getting double teamed all game
People saying Dame needs to show up is funny. Just be glad his team is showing up in this series. Dame balled out in that last series.
Lol if dame starts hitting any shots nugs are done for…
Most exciting team right now.
Blazers are playing with so much heart gotta love it
I agree but one thing that bothered me is that our offense became so stagnant near the end of the 4th and all the OTs. Our bench was playing well and we should have at least used Collins defensively in the OTs.
Formerly Known they were tired some of the bench players had to step up and take responsibility for their actions and suck the ass
From tip-off straight to the middle of the 4th?
Croxman 52 shit just blew mines
Lmao
Croxman 52 Yoo I’m like game was so real 8 minute vid and no highlights of the first 3 quarters ? great game tho
That was a good move. Lol
Now that’s playoff basketball at its finest great game both teams deserve that win respect to both teams
I’m happy for Rodney Hood. He’s capable of being a solid 3rd scoring option for Portland. He & Kanter 3a & 3b.
Hood played with LeBron in Cleveland and was a good shooter of the bench also. I think he gets overlooked allot of the time. Most people on the bench do. But your right they played extremely well. And deserve the credit just as much as anyone else.
Those fans probably didn’t get home till 3 in the morning lol got their money worth tho
