Let them foul out ffs.

Let them foul out in the 2nd half.

 

[Buzz Killington]

he'll make it up

 

[MrSelfDestruct]

Nate McMillan.

Nate McMillan

It shouldn't be too hard to figure out. It's part of Nate's master plan.

You mean besides Nate being an assclown?

The usual.

As I suspected, I just wanted to make sure.

Brilliant.

 

[Natebishop3]

Nate's back to his antics of pissing everyone off.

I'm not pissed. I would just genuinely like to hear Nate's reasoning for having no center in the game.

 

[Darkwebs]

Fugly game. We are playing down to our opponent. The Grizzlies are just garbage, but we are barely holding on to a lead.

Scoring/take advantage of matchups

The usual

It never seems to make a huge difference

 

[cdub503]

Is that what's happening? It's hard to tell with all the shitty basketball being played.

 

[Buzz Killington]

ZBO just ate Webster for lunch!

 

[B-Roy]

I don't know why they bother calling timeouts at the end of the half for Roy isos, they do it every game.

 

[Buzz Killington]

that was a masterful play. Outlaw and Martell playing twiddle dumb in the corner and Roy just takes the J.

 

[andalusian]

Yeah, what was that all about? Funny stuff.

 

[Darkwebs]

1st half is over and we're tied at 45. We better blow them out the next quarter, because we haven't been able to close out close games this year.

 

[RoyToy]

that was a masterful play. Outlaw and Martell playing twiddle dumb in the corner and Roy just takes the J.

And this was coming out of a timeout.

 

[Natebishop3]

I don't understand why they don't use a pick and roll or a pick and pop with Aldridge in that situation. Part of what made Nash/Dirk so lethal was that play. They would run the pick and pop all day. I think Roy and Aldridge are perfectly capable of being that lethal. I'm so tired of the Roy iso.

Yeah. It was quite comical.

 

[illmatic99]

I hate that no center lineup. So idiotic.

 

[MARIS61]

No one ever call Webster a 3pt specialist again

.372 career 3pt%.

.381 this season.

 

[illmatic99]

Yeah, what was that all about? Funny stuff.

Funny to you. Cringing agony to me.

ugh.

 

[RoyIsClutch07]

This game is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo


PAINFUL!!!!

 

[Darkwebs]

I hope Nate plays our centers. We should not be outrebounded.

 

[RoyIsClutch07]

LOL. Has it really gotten to this?

HOPING???

 

[Darkwebs]

LOL. Has it really gotten to this?

HOPING???

Nate is probably trying to match up with the Grizzlies. But we should probably be making the Grizzlies try to adjust to us, not the other way around. We still have 9 center fouls left, so Nate should just let our big guys play.

 

[RoyToy]

.372 career 3pt%.

.381 this season.

Like I said.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Nate McMillan.

Really? Not Greg's fault for making two stupid quick fouls, not the refs fault for calling two weak ass fouls on Greg, (while not calling them on anyone else), but it was Nate's fault for not putting him back in.

This bullshit has to stop, either from Greg or the refs. But Nate is not the fucking reason Greg can't stay on the court.

Yeah but to not bring him OR Joel is weak.

 

[Natebishop3]

Time to get THEM in foul trouble.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Yeah but to not bring him OR Joel is weak.

Except for the fact that Greg now has 4 fouls to work with. We will see if that helps in the second half

 

[Darkwebs]

Blake can't pass well.

 

[MickZagger]

If we win and Denver loses we'll be tied for 1st. Can you imagine that after all the chicken little's were talking so much shit?
