Blazers @ T-Wolves 3/7/12 - Game Thread!

[MickZagger]

He gets loose ball fouls like no one else. It takes just a little body and they call a loose ball foul on the other guy, they don't even treat Howard like they do love in that respect that puts him at the line a lot.
As for D just watch the two. Love is a bad help defender and just tries to prevent his guy from going into the paint adn then goes for the O rebound thats all he can do. LA is very active defensively and has to switch a lot and guard a mismatch he can also block shots which love really can't and his length aggravates opp a lot.

Do yourself a favor and watch more T-Wolves games

LMA got away with a no-call on Rubio.

Which team are you rooting for in this game?

 

[KingSpeed]

We're really focused on offense. Gotta defend though. Gotta defend.

 

[BlazerBeav]

One game sample size? I'll take Love's 42/10 performance against LA last weekend as the evidence of superiority.

I'll take the previous 7 matchups as evidence of LA's superiority. You're ridiculous.

3 1/2 years on S2 and you finally get to post an "I told you so".

lol, thats my first I told you so? If you say so.

A good question. Yet another non-Blazer fan troll.

I watch a lot of Twolves game mostly because of Rubio. Love is great but I get aggravated by how the refs treat him, if LMA got that kind of treatment he would avg 30 a game.

 

[Boise Blazer]

Damn, Wallace has 6 assists?

 

[magnifier661]

Can't believe Darko was drafted before melo and wade

 

[Rhal]

Our perimeter D is sucking tonight seems to happen a lot.

rubio threw himself into LMA.

 

[Rhal]

Can't believe Darko was drafted before melo and wade

Can't believe there were 2 espn writers (can't remember who they were heckled on NBA podcast the other day) that said Darko should go #1.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Love on par to go off for 40.

.....Again

 

[Rhal]

Our D is playing really really badly, no blocking out leaving the guys on the perimeter constantly open. At least we can't really play any worse on the D end then we are now.

I've been here for years son. I'm a fan of the Blazers playing D. Not a lot of that going on tonight.

 

[BlazerBeav]

So has Mixum, longevity doesn't make you not a troll.

 

[craigehlo]

Love with 10 board already. Box out!

 

[Boise Blazer]

When are we going to figure out that we cant outscore teams? I think I know some of the answers that question will get ...

You've been bitching for years, son. It's OK, but at least embrace your negativity. Message boards tend to attract those posters, so it's not like you're unique or anything.

 

[magnifier661]

Can't wait.....

 

[craigehlo]

So has Mixum, longevity doesn't make you not a troll.

Sure. I also not going to cover for a team that's playing well below their potential. That's for an apologist like you I suppose.

20/10 at the half for Love.

His eyes light up when he sees this Blazer team.

I hate love because I hate myself.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

17/2 for LaMarcus.

Eh.

 

[BlazerBeav]

20/10 at the half for Love.

His eyes light up when he sees this Blazer team.

You gifting him 3 rebounds?

 

[PapaG]

20/10 at the half for Love.

20/7, but whatever.

 

[KingSpeed]

Lakers have blown a 20 point lead against Washington and now trail by 6.

 

[PapaG]

17/2 for LaMarcus.

Eh.

17/3, but whatever.

 

[magnifier661]

17/2 for LaMarcus.

Eh.

That's sexy since it was only for one quarter.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

If this goes on, everyone will say that Love outplayed Aldridge. But I didn't see Love score at all when Aldridge was on him, while Aldridge was just lighting up Love. They cover for Love's defensive inability well.

[Having read back through the thread, I see that this is not a novel sentiment.]
