@FootbaIIism Lache was a different animal. Different level of athleticism even among college athletes. Good dude too

Bro pulled his hamstring at the 50 and still scored 😳

Toumani has no energy. I think it’s altitude related but he looks exhausted

@NBAOfficial explain to me how that’s a foul on scoot who didn’t touch him but was too close to him so it was a foul. But Grant gets kicked on a three and it’s deemed marginal contact. Your entire organization is a joke

I’m so tired of the flopping in the nba. It’s not basketball. Man the hell up

@SleeperBlazers Out of this group. 1. Andre Miller 2. Wes 3. Jermaine 4. Rudy

They weren't stars, but they were fan favorites Which Blazer would you bring to the current roster in their prime? #ripcity

Sorry but when Deni, Jrue and Tou go 4-24 from 3 and have a combined 11 turnovers. You’re not winning many games.

@LCottrell88219 @SleeperBlazers Right before his injury I will agree. Didn’t block a lot of shots but altered them. Just felt like he played down too often and then was frustrated constantly with how he wouldn’t play as big as he was

@Coach_nick89 @SleeperBlazers I think that two year stretch from 17-18 and 18-19 he was a top 5 defensive center because in addition to the team defense he was one of the best rim protectors because he still had some athleticism, but I also understand the frustrations because I had them too sometimes

Why's it seem like so many Blazers fans hate Jusuf Nurkic? @bosnianbeast27 He was a top-10 center for much of his time in Portland, averaging a double-double 4 out of 7 seasons He was also instrumental in helping #ripcity get to the 2019 Conference Finals I don't get the hate

@LCottrell88219 @SleeperBlazers I agree he gets way too much heat. That I will agree with. He was a good player. He also was a very frustrating player. Elite defender is a bit much. But he was a good team defender. Good helpside defender. But wasn’t elite. I thought he could have been elite at passing tho

@Coach_nick89 @SleeperBlazers He was an elite defender before he broke his leg and was still decent when he came back, I could understand some frustration with parts of his game but he got way too much hate for the impact he was making

@SleeperBlazers He would also take shit personally for anyone who gave him advice and would show up out of shape and have to get in shape.

@Coach_nick89 No offense taken, I watched a lot. Pretty much his entire career in Portland. I was hyped when he got traded Plumlee.

@BrettSiegelNBA Then Draymond should be kicked out of every game before halftime… it’s soft and it’s a terrible ref wanting to have the spotlight on him and not the players.

NBA official Tyler Ford on why Jaylen Brown was ejected tonight: First tech: “For aggressively pointing and using profanity and resentment to the no call.”   Second tech: “He aggressively approached a game official while pointing and using profanity.”

@KeithSmithNBA Ford is one of the worst in the league and has an ego, which makes him even worse

Ref show. Tyler Ford, who sucks, blew the call and now Jaylen Brown gets thrown out. Brown should know better, and needs to leave before this turns into a suspension, but this was set off by Ford being a crappy ref.

@iinangelo Tyler Ford is an awful referee

NBA Referee Tyler Ford on Jaylen Brown's Ejection: QUESTION: What did Jaylen Brown do to receive the first technical foul? FORD: For aggressively pointing and using profanity and resentment to the no call. QUESTION: What did Brown do to receive the second technical foul? FORD: He aggressively approached a game official while pointing and using profanity. QUESTION: Why was no foul called on the play before the first technical foul? FORD: In live play we did not observe any illegal contact.

@zm_cox Tyler ford is an awful referee

Jaylen Brown was tossed from Celtics-Spurs because he "aggressively approached a game official while pointing and using profanity," per referee Tyler Ford. One of Brown's most mild-mannered teammates called the ejection "bull----" and "ridiculous." wp.me/panY8T-FmrA

@CHold Moving screen after moving screen after moving screen. Their just running through players at this point

Hornets with back-to-back three-pointers to take their first lead since the first quarter at 88-87 with 7:27 to play.

@PlayoffToumani His play and Jrues turnovers are killing this team

Jerami still in the game?

Jrue has been awful lately and can’t take care of the ball… yeesh

@RipCitySquid For the rest of the season (with Shae out) this should be the lineup Jrue Sidy Tou Deni DC Scoot Tisse Vit JG Rob You can’t have JG and Jrue on the court together right now. JG doesn’t play hard anymore and forces awful shots and Jrue is a turnover machine lately

The only person who wanted to play defense tonight was Sidy Cissoko. And Tiago only let him play 5 minutes 😂

@joesimonssays Talk about Sidy. Miss his attitude on the court. Needs to play.

If you have topic ideas for this evening’s Rip City Wrap Up we’re all ears
