13 at 100-84.

BRoy is saddened.

 

[MAS RipCity]

WOOOOO THAT Was NAAAAASSSSTYYY!
I heart Rudy's unselfishness

 

[PapaG]

I just ignore it and don't care what people say anymore...

I want to give people the benefit of the doubt, but then OUTLAW THROWS IT IN THEIR FACE.

 

[VenomXL]

Daggah.

 

[blue32]

12 fucking missed free throws?????????????????? holy shit.

 

[RoyToy]

Outlaw has 17 points on 7/8 shooting in a win and you are obsessing over him.

It's odd.

I don't think I'm obsessing over him.

I also never said Outlaw doesn't contribute to the team.

 

[PapaG]

Outlaw with 15 points so far in the 4th.

TRADE HIM!

 

[julius]

Why do we always leave the white kid open? if he is white, he prolly can shoot...UGH!

 

[PapaG]

I don't think I'm obsessing over him.

Nice backtrack. Too little, too late.

 

[TripTango]

We need to DRAFT THE STACHE!

(whew...)

 

[RoyToy]

Nice backtrack. Too little, too late.

Backtrack? Lol.

Show me where I said Outlaw never contributes.

You're just too defensive for some reason, that's all.

 

[PapaG]

Backtrack? Lol.

Show me where I said Outlaw never contributes.

You're just too defensive for some reason, that's all.

Strawman, and you are on record criticizing Outlaw in a quarter in which he scored 16 points.

LMAO at you. It's ridiculous, "RoyToy".

 

[TripTango]

What's the deal with this blowout game angst, y'all? Portland's winning this game the way they were supposed to! Enjoy it!

 

[PapaG]

TO is horrendous tonight.
Nice to see Joel active on the boards.

Sweet shot by Rudy.

LMAO

Where did you go?

 

[maxiep]

The Clips just ran out of gas. I give them credit for fighting so hard. I hope Freddie gets signed for the season.

I am enjoying it. I just can't stand it when people unduly criticize players.

 

[Ed O]

It's 67-67 right now.

They can't stop Roy and they can't stop Oden.

I bet we still win by double digits.

Ed O.

Ed O.

LMAO at you. It's ridiculous, "RoyToy".

I criticized him one time in this game. Oh no.

You still haven't showed me where I said Outlaw never contributes to the team. Guess what, you won't find it.

Stop being so defensive and getting your panties in a bunch. Everything will be OK.

 

[maxiep]

Clips' announcer: "Is that Ike Diogu?"

 

[PapaG]

Ed O.

Nice call, Ed, but I didn't see an Outlaw explosion in your prediction.

 

[Ed O]

LMAO

Where did you go?

Are you seriously arguing that Outlaw wasn't a waste of space in the first three quarters?

If someone criticized Outlaw for his fourth quarter play, I could see you getting your tail feathers all puffed up... but has that happened?

Ed O.

I didn't say you never said Outlaw didn't contribute. You said he didn't contribute at least 50% of the time.

I don't know why you said it in the game thread.

How about you just let me enjoy the win instead of trying to justify your criticism of Outlaw?

 

[chris_in_pdx]

This site is seriously pissing me the fuck off. None of you can be happy. All of you cornflake-pissers can go to hell. I'm a fan of the Blazers, not this site, and certainly not any of you whiney bitches.

 

[Ed O]

Nice call, Ed, but I didn't see an Outlaw explosion in your prediction.

Haha. True.

Take away Outlaw's 16 points, though, in the 4th quarter and Portland still wins by 9. I think it would be reasonable to expect him to score one point to get us to double-digits.

I sort of agree and have been coming to this site less and less because of all the whiners.

You're slipping, Ed.

 

[RoyToy]

I don't know why you said it in the game thread.

I said he's out of control 50% of the time, not that doesn't contribute 50% of the time, although he is very Jekyll and Hyde. Outlaw has never been known for his consistency, that's for sure.

Just and fyi I might have been the only person saying Outlaw should be the 6th man off the bench before the season started because he's perfect for it, unlike the majority of people that wanted to see him start. Go look that up if you'd like.

Just face it, you got too defensive over simple criticism.

Whoo hoo! 10 games over .500 for first time since 2002-2003! And in fifth in the West! Go Blazers!!

Chris, you're right. I am happy, yet I find myself defending the players against either unreal expectations or unjust criticism.

The mods do nothing to help the situation, either.
