Chauncey Billups Postgame Interview | Portland Trail Blazers 109, Oklahoma City Thunder 111
Coach I think it’s pretty evident and obvious that frustration from trying to call the time out and then not hearing you is that accurate yeah yeah I mean you know it just a tough situation you know we got timeouts referees usually are prepared for that you know that instance that
Situation I’m at half court trying to call a timeout you know it’s just it’s just frustrating play my guys play too hard for that you know it’s a frustrating play so malcol bring it up he tries to call time out you try to call timeout they call Double
Dribble instead and then that’s okay just want that correct I guess other than that how do you feel about the way you guys play particularly in reference to kind of what happened last time my guys played amazing played amazing they took the challenge um came in here you
Know saying all day that you know we we need to go demand some respect you know based on the way that we’ve played against this team they blew us out 62 um a week and a half ago we said listen either you going to roll or you going to
Get rolled on that’s how this game works and our guys they they rolled today um they played really good they shared the ball defensively I thought we did a really good job we made them earn everything you know today and I was proud of my team and they didn’t deserve
For the game to end like that so obviously you know I feel bad for putting us in that position but also I got to stand up for my guys you know um and it is what it is and I’ll do it every day of the week yeah you have to imagine that
Starting to welcome everyone else behind him on on your side with that one when you get could feel their support yeah I mean I’m sure I mean they are we are frustrated you know Malcolm feel is just as frustrated he was trying to call a timeout as well you know um what else
Would you be trying to do in that situation you know it’s just it’s a bang bang easy simple play you know of coaches at half court out of my box calling it we don’t I’m done talking about it man what did you think about about your guys last
Last attempt I thought it was great I thought Jonah uh H you my assistant coach Drew up a great play um Malcolm just kind of under thre da but man we got a great look on it got a great look on it ex executed it very well I mean
That’s a tough tough pass for um a point guard to make with a seven foot guy and shet uh all over the ball so you know I thought it was great and even the shot that uh the kid Jaylen Williams hit it was just a tough shot it was really good
Defense I mean the kid hit a big time shot I thought our defense was good though uh seemed like one of scoots better games maybe the bench give you a lot very few turnovers really yeah scoot was great off of the bench um came and brought us
A lot of life you know brought us that energy that he usually does his Pace was incredible um attacking that basket was incredible um that’s just kind of who he is so he he brought he brought exactly what we needed him to bring today what did you think about you guys I think
We’re down to 13 in the first quarter and then you really came on in the second half what did you think about kind of that segment particularly in the first half where you guys were able to kind of fight back well we did we got
Down 13 but it wasn’t because of how we was playing we was creating really good looks and just couldn’t knock them down I mean time after time we were getting the shots that we wanted couldn’t knock them down obviously that team is so hard to guard they got so many guys that can
Hurt you so they were scoring we were getting good looks but I said let’s just just stay just stay disciplined you know keep trying to create the same type of opportunities and we did started knock it down the bench came in gave us a huge
Lift um in that in that first end of the first quarter in the second quarter kept us in it kept us in it and I mean it was just a ball game the whole way

Obviously the refs cost us the game but so did billups. Itβs understandable he was so mad and I was mad too but at the end of the day the refs arenβt gonna change their minds and u canβt challenge a call like that so itβs water under the bridge type shit
I wonder how many Morons are going to blame Billups for this loss
REFS SCREW BLAZERS! π€¬
Brogdon was apparently calling timeout and even the announcers could hear it from the 3rd row……sad that the refs never called it
Brogdon had pants full of shit looking at Chauncey like he had a spare pair. enough.
#FireBillups
Any Ripcity journalist understand how mark Medina of USA Today got to interview DA first for that amazingly embarrassing quote today? Just so happened there was some money riding on the game tonight too. Gall darn fellas. Robbed and ridiculed.
Can somebody FIRE this fool already damn he's the worst coach of all-time and the record speaks facts
Respect to the Blazers for the effort
What no one is talking about is that they fouled the piss out of Brogdon. Forget the time-out call a foul.
completely agree coach, that last play was on refs
Anfernee is LEGIT. He is gonna be an all star. Chauncey has this team believing, need to execute and tighten up on the road. Im certain Chauncey has a learning curve to coaching, but I trust that he will try to improve.
At least we didnβt lose by 62
Please fire π₯ this clown π€‘
DA needs to be benched. He is playing like some dogwater.
Blazers played hard, the team was winning until Chauncey attacked the refs. Billups technical fouls gave OKC a huge advantage, and the Thunder delivered a dagger shot. Thanks for the loss Coach, signed – Blazer fans
Was expecting fireworks, got a pop gun
The nba really needs to look into refs rigging games. We won. But we weren't suppose to. So they made it happen. That's wild.
refs swing wayyyy to many games u grant the timeout blazers probably win this game…wish billups had been more angered and called the refs out like darko did and mike brown most recently its the only way to raise awareness to the issue
Give this man a raise.
He traveled first before being fouled and before the attempted time out call
League didnβt want the thunder to lose
While coach is trying to call a timeout, Brogden is getting fouled. NBA refs suck.
What a horrible piece of refereeing! And then they add, on top of their mistake a T to Billups. It seems their orders were to let OKC have a win. Corrupt or stupid or with inflated egos, these refs are BAD for the game!
Im usually a Billups skeptic, but he did nothing wrong this game. I love how annoyed he is…Shows he at least cares.
