Ant's standing at the scorers table... so he'll be back in on the other side of this TO.

Finally a lineup without Grant and Ant!

Don't speak too soon. Ant is waiting to come back in.

This is what happens when you find your coaching staff in the bargain basement.

 

[42N8Bounce]

Scoot taking that 3 point shot with confidence. Stroke is looking good. 2/3 so far.

He’s actually just playing Chauncey’s minutes rotation. Except he gave Deni a few more mins.

Wow we left Scoot and Shae in and just said fuck defense.

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Minutes distribution and rotations are moronic. Who is this guy?

Was thinking earlier how the minutes seem exactly how Billups would split them.

 

[Cugel]

Good game for Scoot.

 

[illmatic99]

Really nice showing by Shae and Scoot this half

 

[HailBlazers]

Cody Williams bad look on D

 

[Cugel]

I see no reason why Ainge would unload Kessler unless it was an incredible deal. They are a big team.

 

[KingSpeed]

Scoot having a great game

 

[jlprk]

Does any site keep track of air balls? There would be 2 stats, FGAs and FTAs. This game has been high in each. These 2 teams were made for each other.

 

[MickZagger]

Am I considered a bad fan if I have no fucking interest in watching this game?

 

[B-Roy]

The ant and grant offense is a good way to tank.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Friends, if unlike me you chose to not pay to attend this game, consider yourself fortunate.

 

[PCmor7]

Yeesh, Grant and Ant commanding the tank.

Grant looks horrible.

 

[Strenuus]

and 15 lbs of pure muscle during the off season didn't hurt.

This is such a good response I approve.

 

[illmatic99]

14-0 run. Nice.

 

[KingSpeed]

Sit Simons

 

[B-Roy]

Ant 21 minutes 0/8

 

[Sheldon Shape]

Scoot's three point shot is looking good lately.

I'm also seeing more emphasis on defense. Two good things.

 

[Sheldon Shape]

Ant 21 minutes 0/8

He couldn't be worse if he tried.

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Yeesh, Grant and Ant commanding the tank.

Grant looks horrible.

I don't understand these Blazer fans that think Grants value hasn't gone down this season... Yes he's been horrible all year and other GMs are watching the same things we are.

Just insane how stupid it was to collect the vets Cronin did leading up to, during, and after Dame was traded.

 

[PCmor7]

Team can't shoot. Team doesn't pass the ball well and team can't shoot. Blazers won't win without guys on the team that can consistently make open 3s, and we don't have anyone like that. We have some streaky shooters, but not anyone that's money when they're open.

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Ant 21 minutes 0/8

He's had a number of these games this year he's beyond awful. Just dribbling into turnovers and not even shooting smoothly. I don't remember this in prior years.

Might think he has a drug problem or family issue or some other major problems in his life.

Maybe just sharing the baby mama with Ingram and a new kid is it... I dunno

 

[illmatic99]

Simons playing like he's hungover. Something ain't right with him. Even straightforward passes are flying all over the place.

 

[Cugel]

Ant 21 minutes 0/8

He is being showcased. Fear not.

 

[illmatic99]

Simons has no business playing this many minutes. Wtf

 

[illmatic99]

Simons -19.
Scoot +20.

Matches the eye test too.
