Chauncey Billups Postgame Interview | Portland Trail Blazers 97, Dallas Mavericks 126

Your overalls ah man it was rough it was rough uh tough going the whole night I mean the fou trouble really hurt us I mean they going to the free throw line every time you can never really run and get in a rhythm you know um It’s

Just tough to kind of get in any rhythm and play that way you know on every single time it just seemed like the stopp in the game but you know um we could never really get going and then shoot Luca had a special night and Kai you know Kyrie had a special

Night um dudes just hit some some incredible shots man you know and then get easy buckets from the free throw line it just makes it tough you mentioned you had some guys in F trouble how big of a flow was it then for D to

Have to leave the game yeah yeah I mean shoot I was just so happy we was getting so many guys back tonight you know um even with restrictions and then you know you lose and you lose Barry and you know he is back to being short you know short man

Again but you know we just we got to be better you know I thought the biggest thing you know we talk about the free throws but we turned the ball over too much in the first quarter I mean the first half you you come in at halftime I

Think we have 14 turnovers at the half for 21 points this team is hard enough to guard in the half Court period and then you give them you know the easy ones and transition and turn it over so that compounds things it just makes it tough

I know you’re not want to make excuses but my calculations is the first time you guys have lost consecutive games by 20 points or more you did get guys back with so many our M restrictions different lineups out there that I hadn’t recognized many of them before

Was it just one of those nights where there was just too many things for you guys time it was it was a lot it was a lot Aaron it really was um you know how I am I don’t yeah I I I definitely don’t make excuses but it was a lot to

Overcome in the game tonight um I was tried everything I was playing lineups that I never even seen you know um and truth of the matter is because we haven’t had bodies you can’t practice so you end up practicing in the game um tough tough circumstances on you know

Scoop seemed to he’ been playing really well but tonight was kind of an off night for him there’s anything about him that just that was not really not really other than you know having so many people back you know the minutes are kind of botched a little bit and then so

Many people on minute restrictions you got to the rotations are different you know um so other than that but I didn’t think anybody you know played particularly well you know in the game to be honest what did you think of anon’s return at least like

They think play yeah I think I think it was just good to have him back out there um for me even though the game got out of control I want him you know just get him out there get his legs going you know get him get him shooting some shots

And so he can get back comfortable as soon as possible because that’s hard to do um when you’ve been sitting out and you haven’t really touched the ball come back no practices just jump out there you know that’s just tough to do so again you got to lose use some of these

Opportunities is is it’s pretty much like practices where are things with DeAndre is something that still day to day or is that concern that could be worse yeah n he’s he’s pretty much day to day we just he’s just still working on it you know we’re going to get some more uh some

More information on it soon

  1. Get off Kyrie Irving’s nuts and coach your team clown 🤡
    Did I hear say you’re using games as practice? What in the hell is going on?

  2. I’m a mavs fan but god damn he D rides our players more than we do tf . I hate when we play yall our players always injure themselves. Also refs f’d yall the whole game the amount of foul calls was ridiculous 😊

  3. The Portland Trail Blazers have one of the worst offense in the NBA. The players just don't know what to do. We're just wasting time with Chauncey. It is clear that he is really a very weak coach. Look at the Oklahoma Thunder, that team found a great coach, look at the Utah Jazz, look at the Memphis Grizzlies, they also have a great coach. These are all young teams too. Why did you choose Chauncey? Why did you decide that he would be a good specialist?

  4. so how long a leash did Portland give this coach? was it written in his contract that he would be allowed X amount of seasons to fail? You have coaches in this league who have gone deep in the playoffs and the finals get cut.

  5. I think Billups would make a decent assistant for PGs but not very good as an HC just yet.

  6. Tough to be a coach on a team that's been ordered to tank harder than an M1 Abrams.

  7. Was trying to figure out why this season feels like last season then it hit me, Billups made it a few games further this year but his pisspoor coaching gets exposed and now the other coaches that are worth a damn can outcoach him with ease knowing he doesn’t make adjustments very well at all. Can’t wait for the team to sell so we get an invested in winning owner who realizes we don’t need to waste any more time with bs Billups. He is soooo trash it’s not even funny anymore. 🤦🏻‍♂️

  8. 3 dudes on this sorry team have 100M+ contracts too

    GRANT 160M
    AYTON 130M
    SIMONS 100M

    not even like we got room to sign somebody. Only chance is tank again and try to draft another Dame
