Blazers @ Sixers Game Thread

[Rhal]

Well i'v been making excuses for the blazers this year but after watching the last 4 games i'm at a loss. Something is hugely wrong with this team and if we don't get it figured out there is no way in hell were making the playoffs so I bet a big blowup of the team around the trade deadline.

Someone needs to pull a super Blakey and karate chop a table in half or something.

Good idea.

Somebody get Blake in here...what!????...who traded him!???...WTF is going on around here!???

 

[KingSpeed]

Nothing to be ashamed of here. We were playing one of the best teams in the league in their building. They were supposed to win.

 

[Natebishop3]

LMA for three!!!!!!! lol.... nope.

 

[VanillaGorilla]

We suck ass.

 

[VenomXL]

WTF are these refs doing? Put us out of our misery already.

 

[Natebishop3]

Wesley Matthews is one of the only positives on this sad team.

 

[RoyToy]

I can't believe someone in this thread they don't care if a guy doesn't score at all in the 2nd half as long as he gets a 20/10.

lol. Horrible logic.

Are Aldridge and Matthews supposed to win the game all by themselves?

Blame the rest of the team for giving nothing.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

"They just wanted it more" [/cliche]

 

[BlayZa]

one team played har'

 

[KingSpeed]

Aldridge had 18/8 halfway through 2nd qtr. Sad.

In the other thread that ABM started you can see I blamed Roy (who shouldn't be getting the minutes that he is) and McMillan.

Were paying Aldridge awfully nice money to be racking up goose eggs late in games on a regular basis though.

We've lost four in a row and have dropped below .500. Oh yeah, we get to visit Boston tomorrow. Well at least I have my NFL team to keep me positive.

Wait, I'm a Vikings fan.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

This just isn't a good basketball team.

11 pts in the fourth quarter.

Again.

Everyone congratulate Eric, he's invented a time machine and is visiting us from tomorrow night.

Actually it's not.

If just your 5 starters got 20/10 each every game you'd be an absolute lock to win the championship.

 

[VenomXL]

What a perfect end to the game there. I can't wait to read the post game comments after this one.

Jesus, we shot 37%?

 

[Natebishop3]

At what point does management decide to do SOMETHING...

 

[MickZagger]

Aldridge had 18/8 halfway through 2nd qtr. Sad.

Very sad indeed. But, this has become the norm. I'd like to see a diagram of LMA's stats this year in the 1st half vs. the 2nd half.

Man, we should have a pity party or something.

 

[Nate Dogg]

Mike and Mike just said the blazers were 4-20 shooting in the 4th quarter. Awful.

Tomorrows predictions against the Celtics will be easy at this point, on who's going to win that one.

 

[Natebishop3]

Everyone congratulate Eric, he's invented a time machine and is visiting us from tomorrow night.

Pure gold.

 

[Rhal]

in almost all 4 of the loses we have shot 15+ shots more then our opponents.

draft day.

 

[MickZagger]

riiiiiiiight.

 

[MARIS61]

Aldridge had 18/8 halfway through 2nd qtr. Sad.

More than Brand got the entire game (18/2), so somebody must have played some defense on Elton while going for 20/12.

Brand has been known to get more than 2 rebounds against most opponents.

 

[BlayZa]

fuck this shit, i need a pick-me-up, gonna go get GT5

20pts is 20pts. Doesn't matter when they're scored. If he doesn't score them in the 1st half the 76ers would have been up by 10+ at half. Pts don't count more in the 2nd half.

Loss is not on Aldridge AT ALL. He's one of the two reasons it was even close. To fault him for not carrying the team all night is a joke.
