Ahhh! Blazers won

[GrandpaBlaze]

So nice to be able to come to the board and not see "the sky is falling" (or the cake is falling) posts.

It may be the time of year (Christmas break, bowl games, etc.) but there don't seem to really be any extreme posts either way tonight.

Must be HCP and Julius' posts. Thanks guys.

Gramps...

Re: Ahhh! Blazers won - No Mixum

Mods, can you change the thread title?

I shouldn't be singling out a particular poster. Just leave it at "Ahhh! Blazers Won".

Thanks.

One does enjoy peace and quiet, doesn't one?

A great game. Even if Greg end up being 3rd among the "Big 3"... dang, what a big 3!

Great second half! Fantastic 4th quarter!

Remember guys, lets ignore all those "Debbie Downers" when they get a chance to pull out their chicken little threads in the future.

Wow, a talented team won a game at home against a less talented team. Everyone remember this night, Nate McMillan should be given a raise.

I laugh every time people pop up to shovel their agenda onto the forum. So let me get this straight, if the team loses it's Nate's fault if they win it's also because he sucks? Makes sense.

LOL. I agree. I think the biggest joke in all of sports (any sport) is how fans think they know if a coach is good or not. Sure they can monitor the substitution patterns and the win/loss column. But unless you are there in practice to see what goes on.........you know very little about the subject.

No, it is because of the post right above mine which I should have quoted as it was in direct response to it.

That is the dumbest thing I have ever read in my life.

How so? College football fans or NBA basketball fan know what goes on in practice? Whether or not coaches work hard on making their players better? How do they know if it is the coaches fault (Or credit) if a player gets better or worse. They are not there. They can't. They don't even know what is being said during a time out. You have no fucking idea if Nate is a good coach or not. I don't either. We can only guess.

This is exactly what I was talking about earlier.

I haven't eaten a piece of shit with mayo on it but I have a pretty good idea that it wouldn't be good.

Is there a record kept on which coach is best in practice? If so, how many practice championships has Nate McMillan won?

I guess I don't have any idea which players are good because I haven't seen them in practice either. Wow.

Well, don't ever bitch about someone fucking up your car when they work on it. Because I will defend anyone who works on cars because I work on them and I know people who do and I don't like people talking bad about my boys.

If you can't tell, it pisses me off that the team wins a game and people are seemingly saying basically "na na na na na na, we won, everything is perfect you bitchers got served"

 

[bodyman5001]

It was about your perspective, that was the idea of your thread wasn't it? You brought it back up in this thread didn't you?

I was being sarcastic anyway, because if someone fucks up your car they shouldn't be allowed to work on them if that is their normal pattern. I was pretending to stick up for my peers just because they were MY peers.

Thank you for sharing how pissed off you are about a win with all of us, and in this thread, your post is ironic.

I'm pretty sure you don't even know what that means, though.

Note to self: Never let this guy work on my car.

It would be ironic if I said I was disappointed that the team I root for won the game. Maybe you should look up the definition of the word yourself.

You and Alanis Morissette would make a good couple....*edited: No personal attacks*

I wouldn't work on your VW cabriolet if you paid me more money than your boyfriend made in a year.

Big difference. You can tell if a player is good because you can see him play. You can't hear or see what a coach does to help his team win. That is the whole point.

You can't tell me why a coach is "coach of the year" one season" and fired the next. Usually there is no good reason for it. Yes sometimes change is needed, but as the saying goes, coaches just don't forget how to coach. Bottom line: It is all about the players.

Fans think they are always smarter than the coach. This is absurd.

 

[Nate4Prez]

agreed Grandpablaze. I just got home from work and it's nice to look at a box score and see we got the win.

 

[LOTBfan]

We didn't win by enough, and we should have had three double doubles. I hate this team, anyone want my season tickets?

 

[BlazersBlood]

Yeah we won! Now we can see what the 2008-2009 NBA Champs can look like on a good night! Whoooooo!

 

[BrianFromWA]

It doesn't look like it in the Box Score, but I liked how Travis played tonight. Yes, he was lost on offense sometimes, and his defensive lapses continue. I personally don't think that's going to change much.

BUT he had flashes where he was going hard after the boards, and attacking the rim on some of his drives. It wasn't a perfect game by any stretch, but all I ask for for Travis is to go hard after rebounds, go hard after loose balls, attack the rim with the crazy athleticism, and if you still have energy after that, please make your FTs and open 3's.

 

[SheedSoNasty]

Nice to see Oden having a good game. Hopefully he'll keep it up.

Good point. This was one instance where we can't say "if Travis' shot isn't falling he doesn't do anything else to help the team".

he was all over the court!

I think I speak for the majority when I ask this, "What in the hell are you talking about?" I swear to God, I feel like just swallowed a bottle of crazy pills after reading parts of this thread.
