ant has 0 interest in passing the ball tonight it appears.
 
I have gotten methstreams for years and I bring it up on here one time and the stream doesn’t link.

Fuck off.

Nothing make me not want to pay to watch the Blazers more than that

i thought all games are free in the market over the air?

antennas are available at walmart/amazon for like $10.

even with all my complaints in the past few years, this season blazers are incredibly ahead of the game with their reach.

Dude I’ve tried antennas. Even had friends who are more savvy try and hook it up. Won’t work.
 
I don’t like watching Ant monopolize 6 minutes of play.
 
I really think Ayton's more-energetic play is a reflection of his vibe with Scoot.

A lot of bigs I know play harder when they think they're going to get the ball, and Scoot's been doing great the last couple of weeks at getting us into offense and getting people -- especially Ayton -- the rock where they can score.

Defense all around has been terrific, too. Got another shot clock violation tonight. Even the Suns' makes have been contested. And the defense is helped by the balanced offense which isn't given Phoenix a chance to rest on the other end of the floor.
 
Sometimes, you need to step back, assess the results, and reconsider your perspective. It looks like something is working.

10 minutes for shaedon in a half is inexcusable in a developmental year.

It depends what they're trying to develop. Until I know that, I'm not going to say it's the wrong move.

it's just bullshit double standards and selective accountability.
 
There are a lot of Suns fans in the stands tonight.
Hopefully they go home disappointed.

or maybe they are Kevin Durant fans.

No, it isn't.

Sometimes, as a coach, you tell a player to do something, and they don't do it. And you tell them again, and they don't do it. And you tell them again, and they don't do it.

Floor time is one of the biggest motivational tools a coach has, especially an NBA coach where every player is paid more than they are.

Sometimes, the minutes played are a reflection of something we don't know about that's going on in practice and we don't notice when the actual game is going on.

Unless you actually are in practices and in the huddle, please consider that maybe, just maybe, something's going on that you aren't privy to.

next time ant or grant or ayton lose minutes for missed defensive rotations will be the first.

Who said it's about missed defensive rotations?

My actual point was you don't know what they're telling Shaedon and what they're looking him to develop, and that, if he's not accepting or processing instruction, cutting minutes is one of the few things they can do.

You know what happens if the point is made? Shaedon becomes a much better player a few years from now when hopefully the Blazers are contending.

You know what happens if you accept sloppy play from him now? He'll probably be a sloppy player later and maybe never break his bad habits.

But you DON'T KNOW what the expectations are for ANY of the Blazers. You're going to frustrate the heck out of yourself pretending you know what's going on behind the scenes.
 
I just started watching the game ( had other stuff to do ) saw that Dipshit AKA Billups took Scoot out for Grant and all I could think is Grant better be fucking traded or Ant by this time next week or I swear I am going to lose my mind with anger on this front office cause Scoot needs to be starting -- PERIOD
