Road win!

Doesn’t look good.

I can’t remember the last time I felt so crappy about a win

Sure glad we escaped.

But scared to death of Scootie’s injury. He was sure in a lot of pain. We would be in big trouble without him.

Great game, Blazers. I didn't expect Troy to play very well since we have so many newcomers and new coach. Gives me hope that Scott Cross will actually be a legit coach. You guys are tremendous at rebounding.

What a weird game. Seems like we could turn it on and jump out and then we get sloppy.

Not a good performance but a gutty one.

47% from 3pt line. You can cut down on turnovers and defend better. Shooting like that covers a lot of woes. If this team shoots high 30's from 3, they will be dangerous.

Hoping Bryant's injury isn't serious. Sometimes non-serious issues like cramps can be very painful.

Did anyone notice if they were doing stability tests in his knee or anything before they got him up?

Clutch shot from Gueye at the end. Glad we could escape with a win and hope Scootie is ok.

Don’t be excited, we’re bad as well

Good win on the road. Will help build for the future. This team is not bad. Smdh

I’m sure many of us already had our gripes thought out to share had the result been a loss.

Take the win and be happy instead. That’s all that matters is they got the W.

17 points for Jalen Benjamin in his first official game as a Blazer. Impressive young player.

No sign of Jude. Only played 8 guys. Nicholson and Benjamin the only newcomers.

Pearson with a solid game. 8 pts 5 rebs and 2-2 from 3.

Glad we won, but we were thoroughly outcoached!

A win is a win!

Anyone hear the postgame coach’s interview and a report on Scootie? I have watched the video a few times and there’s nothing that would indicate a knee injury, though obviously it still could be. Hoping to hear it was a cramp.

I listened. Coach said he asked Scootie if he thought it was serious but he didn’t say what the answer was, but that he was very tough and he hoped he would be ok.

Watching the video it looks like they may have just banged knees, which can hurt like hell but not be serious.

Is Pearson hitting 3's an anomaly or something we should expect more of this year?
