Blazers/Nuggets April 1st Game Thread

[PtldPlatypus]

He's been the only one attacking the paint.

In hsi 5 minutes, Bayless tried to. But Jerryd aside, outside of Roy, he's the only ballhandler. Who else would attack the paint?

He's been the only one attacking the paint.

Bayless attacked the paint and created shots for Martell. Consequently, Bayless leads the team in assists in only 5 minutes of play. Miller has done some good things, yes, but we would be ahead by 10 if he was more aware of his teammates.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

How about the four or five fouls he's handed out to the Nuggets?

Yep--he's done a good job of drawing fouls. I'd like to see what his usage% for the first half was. I'd venture that it was pretty high.

 

[KingSpeed]

How about the four or five fouls he's handed out to the Nuggets?

Yes, he did that at the end of the half. But in the first quarter and a half, he was mostly chucking up bad shots while others were wide open. He started the game 1 for 8 from the field. That wasn't getting anyone into foul trouble.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

that seemed like the longest halftime ever

 

[KingSpeed]

What the fuck was that Miller?

 

[PtldPlatypus]

I swear, Camby is the worst tipping center I've ever seen.

 

[KingSpeed]

Nic is scared

 

[KingSpeed]

There's some post game, Charles. Way to go LaMarcus.

 

[KingSpeed]

Bench Batum

 

[Natebishop3]

Batum DOES look scared.... wtf

 

[Darkwebs]

Batum with another lazy pass that's intercepted. What is up with him?

 

[The Professional Fan]

Fuck, Roy. Make a damn shot.

 

[Natebishop3]

I wish LMA would get within 10 feet at least once in a while....

 

[KingSpeed]

Batum DOES look scared.... wtf

He's young. Only played limited minutes last season so he's not really used to games at this time of the year.

 

[KingSpeed]

I wish LMA would get within 10 feet at least once in a while....

Did you miss his hook shot in the lane about 5 minutes ago?

 

[Darkwebs]

I wish LMA would get within 10 feet at least once in a while....

I agree. He keeps fading away and coming up short.

 

[BlazerBeav]

This game is there for the taking if we'd just step up!

 

[KingSpeed]

Bring in Bayless and Webster. Need I remind you all of how Jerryd dominated the Nuggets the last time we played in Denver?

 

[KingSpeed]

Bayless-Roy-Webster-LMA-Camby

Go with that for the rest of the quarter. See what happens.

 

[Darkwebs]

So when will Roy decide to show up? 6 minutes into the 4th quarter?

 

[KingSpeed]

If you don't have your rhythm, GET IT!

 

[The Professional Fan]

Ok. Warm it up, B-Roy. Be the difference.

 

[Darkwebs]

Finally, Roy hits a shot. 1st bucket of the night for him

 

[Natebishop3]

hahahahaha nice job Nic.

 

[KingSpeed]

nice D, Nic

 

[mrkorb]

And BRoy hits a shot.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

I wish Roy would try harder to get to the line ala kobe/kd/lj/dw when his shot isn't goin instead of bein passive

 

[KingSpeed]

Martell please.

 

[Natebishop3]

Did I forget that I hate Melo too? Yeah.... I hate that guy too.
