Blazers vs. Kings game thread

[Mediocre Man]

Batum can hardly even create his own shot.

Nate??? Is that you????? How do you type with your arms folded????

 

[craigehlo]

Beyond predictable.

 

[craigehlo]

This is what our offense has become? Rudy floaters?

 

[EGame]

It sickens me how long of a leash Rudy gets when he sucks just as bad as Bayless in that quarter.

Remember last year when we were damn near infallible at home? We can't hold a lead for shit.

 

[Mediocre Man]

What I'd like to see of Bayless is when he struggles like this offensively to rack up assist and steals

Rudy has created 3 or so good shots this quarter. Just getting the wrong bounces.

 

[Nikolokolus]

I'll never understand why Nate insists on five live bodies on offense, he get away with cardboard cutouts that sit in one spot while a ball-handler goes 1 on 5

 

[MickZagger]

Put Batum back in the fucking game! He's our best defender and hasn't missed a shot all game!

 

[EGame]

Rudy has created 3 or so good shots this quarter. Just getting the wrong bounces.

And? He has missed everyone, that isn't getting the job done and has been one of the reasons we have not scored yet. Rudy should not have twice the leash Bayless does. Both were horrible, both should be out at the same time.

 

[KingSpeed]

This is awesome.

 

[craigehlo]

LMA is horrible against real post defenders.

You're confusing boneheaded play with missed shots. Rudy was playing smart and got good looks, not running around wildly throwing up shots.

Those Rudy floaters are not good shots IMHO.

 

[VenomXL]

One fucking point in the quarter.

 

[MickZagger]

C'mon blazers. Play like you fucking want it.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Wow. These refs can lick KingSpeed's nizzuts!

 

[julius]

C'mon blazers. Play like you fucking want it.

That seems to be a pattern with this team.

 

[craigehlo]

This inept offense has been a problem all season. Why are we still running the same sets?

 

[MickZagger]

Wow. These refs can lick KingSpeed's nizzuts!

I'm sure he'd oblige.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

One fucking point in the quarter.

That shit's weak. Not just a point.... but "one fucking point". Now that shit is ridiculous!

 

[EGame]

I am not confusing anything with anything, if they were good shots he should have made them since he was able to create space. Since he was not hitting them, and thus, letting the Kings back in, he should have sat along with Bayless because they weren't getting the job done.

Incorrect, those were low percentage shots

Those Rudy floaters are not good shots IMHO.

Indeed, a floater chucked up from your hip going parallel to the basket is about as low percentage as you can get.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

I'm sure he'd oblige.

Wow. That ain't cool. What are you saying?

 

[Blazed Mania 52]

That seems to be a pattern with this team.

Where is B-Roys leadership when we need it?

He needs to put the team on his back and get the W against an easy team.

 

[Sheldon Shape]

I actually don't mind if we lose, maybe people will start waking up and realize that Nate McMillan is a garbage coach. It seems like some people are content with just making the playoffs. McMillan has been riding the coat tails of Roy and Pritchard since his stay here in Portland. Fire him.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Are they really "sets?"

 

[RoyToy]

You're missing the point, but I don't feel like going on further.

 

[craigehlo]

2 points & 5 rebounds? Camby's a bust. And people bitch about Aldridge?

At least he's expiring. We've got a lot of these 6-15 shooting nights to look forward to with LMA's absurdly overpaid contract.
