[BBert]

I could really use a link if anyone has one.

Thanks.

Another late season meltdown by the Ducks........fuckkkkkkk. LETS GO BLAZERS!!!!!

Hornets are not even close to being better without Paul, but they are clearly better playing for a coach they do not all (other than Paul) hate.

Collison is playing nice for them in Paul's absence. He is freaking quick with the ball.

 

[KingSpeed]

We are really missing Travis's scoring in the 2nd.

Honestly, I would try Dante instead of Howard and give him the green light to shoot. He scored a lot in college last year when he was told he can do it. I do not think he can score anywhere as well as Travis in the NBA, but we miss scoring.

Agreed. By the way, Blake is the best PG in the league.

 

[KingSpeed]

Nice pass Juwan.

 

[andalusian]

Agreed. By the way, Blake is the best PG in the league.

Blake isn't even the best PG on the team. But he is the best playing next to Roy, it seems.

 

[KingSpeed]

Hornets should look to unload Paul while he still has value.

 

[Mediocre Man]

So Oden has 1 touch?


Nice. This offense will be great in the playoffs.

 

[KingSpeed]

Holy crap! Boykins is back in the league.

 

[ironcrotch]

anyone find a link?

 

[Mediocre Man]

1 for 1 by the way. No way they should take advantage of that.

 

[KingSpeed]

So Oden has 1 touch?


Nice. This offense will be great in the playoffs.

Huh? He's taken 2 shots plus he's gotten the ball in other scenarios in which he's had to pass out of a double team. Please learn the game before you post.

2 for 2. Plus several other touches. Are you watching the game? He has an assist too!

I meant shot, and at the time of my post it was 1.

 

[Boise Blazer]

How did LMA turn into in the Greg Oden fouling machine?

 

[Mediocre Man]

We are so bad, Steve Blake is our leading scorer so far, and is tied for shot attempts. I wonder if Nate is "sending a message" to some people?

 

[Boise Blazer]

Nice play! Roy to Oden!

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Hang me at the stakes if you want, but I miss Outlaw. Always liked him despite the "shake my head" moments. We're not as good without Travis Outlaw.

 

[KingSpeed]

Blake is the best PG in the league. Too bad Howard couldn't finish.

 

[KingSpeed]

If we don't win by 30, we have no chance of making the playoffs.

Blake is our best player and has been for the last two seasons.

Nothing is wrong with this analysis. People have been underestimating how unique Travis's ability to score, no matter how ugly the offense looks.

Great player? No. Star? No. Very valuable role player? You bet.

Please check the labels on your medication container more carefully.

 

[KingSpeed]

We might need to make a trade to make up for Travis' absence. Trade Miller for a scorer.

 

[KingSpeed]

Please check the labels on your medication container more carefully.

Did you see that pass from Blake to Oden?

 

[KingSpeed]

Blake with the rebound.

 

[andalusian]

Did you see that pass from Blake to Oden?

Yes. Blake has been under-appreciated by way too many people on this board, but he was not our best player in any year, ever.

 

[KingSpeed]

40 points against the fucking Wolves. If you have to play Juwan Howard heavy minutes, you have a crappy team. Never should've let Frye go.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

My god Martell......I don't even know what to say. 2nd coming of Dale Ellis? Child please...

 

[oldmangrouch]

The new line-up hasn't gotten either Roy or the team offense going. Nate is running out of options. (and time)
