AMA The HCP Edition......

[3RA1N1AC]

Hmm, I figured you'd enjoy sweaty men rolling around on the ground in their underwear

 

[3RA1N1AC]

Yeah, I don't like seeing brutal injury shit and usually look away, to have to watch it over and over all zoomed in and slow motion would be no fun at all

What's does your genius basketball mind think of the Afflalo pick-up?

 

[THE HCP]

The whole crew. Announcers, video, sound, etc...

Who do you think is the best/worst for local coverage?

When I first started out, I used to work on all the visiting broadcasts at Blazer games. The Boston/Knicks/Miami type shows were local, but treated each broadcast like a Super Bowl. Very tough to work for. The funny thing is, the smaller the show like UofO or OSU volleyball or soccer or gymnastics are actually the toughest to do. Small inexperienced crews, yet they like above treat their small show like Sunday at The Masters. They all are trying to move up and will step on anybody they can to get there.

North East is ghetto, Amirite?

There are spots.

Honestly, I LOVE it. Not just saying that.
Watch tomorrow, his on the ball defense. He is all over it, like Wes and Nic. His offensive punch off the bench is def going to help us down the stretch, but I think on the defensive end is where you will see him help the most. That and filling the lanes on the break. Met him the other day for the first time in Sac....... looked me right in my eyes and shook my hand, quality guy!

Actually, bigtime gentrification is in the early stages for NE.

You won't recognize the area in 10-15 years.

Here's a look behind the scenes today at our smooth landing in the LAX!

Already with the whole Alberta situation I don't recognize it. A lot of my friends growing up families have lost their homes. It is a good feeling that you can feel safe walking around in neighborhoods you couldn't when I was a kid, but tough to see good people getting pushed out.

I had put some music and graphics on that short video clip^........any idea why they aren't showing up?

Dude... his on ball defense is amazing to watch. You have to look for it too It's like a good ref, you really don't see them, you just notice the results.

You have referred to him several times as your boy but what are your overall thoughts on Nics performance this year and what do you think has gone into performance year? Do you feel he is happy here?

Thank you

 

[PDXFonz]

Ass or titties?

 

[KingSpeed]

Do you know who some of the closeted gay NBA players are?

 

[rasheedfan2005]

john deer or husqvarna?

Reported for lies!

 

[kjironman1]

I am sure you have probably covered this before somewhere but do you ever have a review of a play that the NBA center does not have that could change a call on the court? Do you get a chance to send it to them? Or do they use all of your anyway so they already know? Thanks.

Which would you be more proud of, your kids accomplishments or winning a emmy? (or whatever is the appropriate award you could win)

If you know John, you'll know he'll see the humor in that question.

I don't. I must understand you guys all know each other long time. Just was scratching my head on that one?

He's a huge family man (despite the cracks people take at his wife), and his kids are the single most important things in his life (outside of Grant High School, NE Portland and anime porn). So obviously it was an outlandish question.

Yep. Having met John, I can tell you he's one of the nicest, outgoing people you can meet.

I'll send my paypal information shortly, John.

Could have had something to do with the length of time that thread was available before he actually started answering question? I didn't even know HCP was gonna take questions last night. Not that he would have got as many hits but he would have done better having the thread up there a day in advance like Casey did.

bahaha. Nah, HCP's thing is that he's a big deal. Denny is just knocking him down a peg.

Denny, that was pure gold.

 

[riverman]

John, can you post exclusive behind the scenes videos here about game film or are there restrictions as to what you can share about the team?

Man you guys are relentless.
