Blazers @ Kings 02/02/2012 - The Groundhog day Game Thread!

[illmatic99]

Their guards are facing no resistance on the perimeter at all.

 

[magnifier661]

Sucking on d now. Wow I almost feel like turning this game off

 

[DUB]

We are fucking timid. It's so frustrating. I miss Roy. At least you got one player that wants the ball

It's not timidity. They're trying to share the ball and not force the shot.

Iso's are what got us into trouble on that last road trip; so they made a specific effort to share the ball last night.

Not really working for us tonight though.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Now make your damn FT's

 

[magnifier661]

Wow 8 fg in the second half

 

[ehizzy3]

why is the offense running through crawford and not lamarcus

 

[Rhal]

Were gonna end up with a huge FT disparity like in Utah if we don't start attacking. Getting annoyed with our lack of D too.

 

[Rhal]

why is the offense running through crawford and not lamarcus

It almost always does when he is on the floor and LA is too especially late in the games he won't even look for LA

 

[magnifier661]

why is the offense running through crawford and not lamarcus

Nate wants Crawford to be roy

 

[MickZagger]

No BBIQ whatsoever. Our guards collectively have the lowest BBall smarts of any guard rotation in the league.

Atleast with Miller you knew he'd bring smarts to the game every night.

 

[DUB]

I wish Nic was dressed.

Only play him on offence, and just let him sit in the corner, and nail 3's.

 

[Darkwebs]

LMA bringing us back. Thank god we still have him

 

[PHXBlazer1]

We should employ the hack-a-chuck-hayes strategy

 

[magnifier661]

LMA bringing us back. Thank god we still have him

Lma is saving us. Finally!

 

[Darkwebs]

LMA with the big rebound and pass to Jamal for 3. Huge play

 

[Rhal]

Stupid of Mathews but that was not off of us.

 

[magnifier661]

Wow what a terrible 3 on 1

 

[illmatic99]

What the fuck was that Wesley. 3 on 1 and you get blocked by a guy standing less than 6 feet tall?

 

[ehizzy3]

do they not practice fastbreaking? failed 3-1 against isiah thomas who is not even 6 foot

 

[PHXBlazer1]

omg wes...what is thomas like 5'9?

 

[Darkwebs]

Our guys cannot convert on the break again. Are you kidding me? For a team that wants to run, we look so inexperienced on the fast break.

 

[B-Roy]

Pathetic Matthews....

 

[OneSport3]

Matthews has got to be the absolute worst player on the fastbreak in the entire league.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Terrible fast break - but that was a foul AND off the defender.

 

[magnifier661]

Wallace should have passed left to Aldridge

 

[DUB]

do they not practice fastbreaking?

With the shortened season they hardly practice at all.

 

[B-Roy]

There's no way that was off us though.

 

[Darkwebs]

You have to wonder how they can fail a 3 on 1 break. Even 6th graders can score in that situation

 

[jlprk]

That happened because our coach doesn't know how to teach the fast break.

 

[Rhal]

Mathews needs to learn to pass it there, he can't ever finish and the fact it was the smallest person on the court who stopped it is just plain flat embarrassing.
