Boy, if only we had an elite level point guard like TJ Ford...
 
Sure would be nice to pull the starters at this point.
 
I like our game plan a lot actually. Granny Danger is getting his, but we are keeping the rest of the team in a headlock. With a team like this, you want them to lean on one player and forget how to play team ball.

Support that ridiculous assumption with facts, 'cause his coach says the opposite, and so do any stats you wish to pick.

Now he's over 12 minutes with the same bad, bad line of stats.

I think the fact that Bayless is in there over Sergio supports my argument and that McMillan agrees with me. He is the one that made the switch, and a good switch it has been.
 
Arghhhhh Batum down now.......
Can't we just go a couple of days without someone hurting themselves?
 
Mixum where are you?

You said Indiana would sweep us this year.
 
Even though we aren't at the Rose Garden, I still find myself rooting for 100 points. Gotta get those fans some Phantom Chalupas!
 
Nic turned over an ankle but it didn't look that bad... I wouldn't be surprised to see him sidelined a couple days.

He'd be riding the pines with Sergio?

Do you really think Ford would be the player he is if he was here?

Sorry -- total sarcasm. Ford would be a HORRIBLE fit in Portland, and it always makes me smack my forehead when posters whine for him.

You mean when Grainger sat down don't you, because he's had an effect on the score, Bayless has not.

And +6 with Bayless means the team is +16 without him so there's a measure of the damage he does to us when he plays.

Luckily (or more likely by design) Nate picked 2 teams on the skids to give him burn or we'd have 2 losses from the failed gamble.

Your logic is completely flawed. Do you honestly expect the +/- of the bench unit to be as good as when the starters are in? It would be much easier if you just said you hated Bayless straight up without reason. At least it would make much more sense that way. :crazy:

Why in the hell is Frye in the game.

Aldridge is out, Greg has already played his allotted comeback minutes, and Portland is leading by double digits with under 2 minutes to play.

I think the fact that Nate started Sergio over Bayless for 16 games and we went 11-5 (56 win pace) supports my argument and that McMillan agrees with me. He is the one that made the switch, and a good switch it proved to be.
 
Looked pretty bad to me... he had to be carried off the court/zero weight on it.

Sucks.

Hopefully he heals up in a week or two and is ready for the final stretch to play some lock-down defense.
 
Why is our Starting PG still in the game?
 
Good win.

43-25

If Houston and Denver lose, we're 3rd in the West!

If McMillan agreed with you he wouldn't have made the switch two days ago to Bayless. :crazy:

So are you going to learn spanish so you can post on the DKV Joventut message boards next season? I mean, I can only assume you're going to follow your boy to his next stop.

Our starters play aginst their starters, don't they? Greg was +21 in 12 minutes off the bench.

J. Bayless 17:06 0-2 0-0 0-0 -3 0 1rb 0 1to 1stl 0 1ba 1pf 0

I can't imagine anyone playing worse than that over a 17 minute stretch.

Go ahead, pick your favorite Bayless stat for March:

Not a decent showing in the bunch.

If you're looking for his last good game here's a hint (Feb. 11).
