Blazers Vs. Suns 3/21/10 GAME THREAD!!!

[RR7]

Damnit Nic. How many open, WIDE open 3s has he missed. Tough game.

 

[EGame]

Wow King Batum.

 

[RoyToy]

FUCKING A NICOLAS

 

[KingSpeed]

If Batum hit his clutch threes in the 4th, we win.

 

[ehizzy3]

wow that would've been huge..batum is cold tonight..

 

[KingSpeed]

what a terrible 4th quarter

terrible third actually; 4th was inevitable after that.

 

[The Sebastian Express]

Sometimes the buckets just don't drop. Missed a lot of layups at the rim tonight, alas.

 

[VenomXL]

I like the gusto on taking that shot, but damn, not tonight.

 

[RoyToy]

Batum went Martell on us tonight. A lot of misses on wide open shots.

 

[KingSpeed]

I give Nic a pass though. How many 4th quarters has he played in his NBA career? 20? If that? He hardly ever played the 4th last season. He'll get better.

 

[VenomXL]

Wow, another eight second call!

 

[KingSpeed]

fuck, we have a chance now

GO ROY

 

[Sheldon Shape]

That's what people always said about Jordan and what they always say about Kobe, but most of the time you need a guy like that, who makes it hell on the other team to defend, in order to win a championship. Roy needs to stay aggressive tonight.

Aggressive is different than the ball going through them. And last time I checked, Roy is not even close to being as good as Jordan or Kobe. Check yourself. We're losing the 4th quarter because we went away from what was working, and that was Andre Miller.

 

[VenomXL]

Nash going to the line, no chance he misses, right?

What a shot by Roy.

 

[KingSpeed]

Fuck. Phoenix made us use up the clock so now we have to foul. Great D by Phoenix yet again.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Jon Barry is a fucking idiot.

"You don't have to foul steve nash...let him pass the ball out".

derrrrrrrrr

 

[mgb]

terrible third actually; 4th was inevitable after that.

Yes, taking a lead into the 4th is a inevitable loss, nothing to do with how you play the 4th.

 

[Wheels]

Jon Barry is a fucking idiot.

"You don't have to foul steve nash...let him pass the ball out".

derrrrrrrrr

did you like his "Oh is that all?" response to his 85% career FT percentage?

 

[VenomXL]

We need a three out of this time out because Nash will just go to the line again and make a pair.

 

[KingSpeed]

Roy has to shoot a three again, make it, and then foul again. That guarantees us a chance to tie it.

 

[mgb]

Jon Barry is a fucking idiot.

"You don't have to foul steve nash...let him pass the ball out".

derrrrrrrrr

Ya, he either has to or not cross the line if you cover him up.

 

[KingSpeed]

Yes, taking a lead into the 4th is a inevitable loss, nothing to do with how you play the 4th.

DUDE- the SUNS shot less than 20% in the third. THAT WAS OUR CHANCE TO TAKE THE LEAD. Eventually, they were going to make shots. If you don't take advantage of their famine, you'll use. Happens all the time in this league.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

WHAT THE HOLY HELL WAS THAT?

THEY WASTED LIKE 10 SECONDS.

 

[VenomXL]

God awful possession. Good game Suns.

 

[RoyToy]

What the hell was that

 

[The Sebastian Express]

...

Was.. that the play that Nate drew up?

 

[KingSpeed]

Yes, taking a lead into the 4th is a inevitable loss,.

We didn't take a big enough lead.

WHAT THE FUCK IS UP WITH MILLER SHOOTING FIVE THREES? Fuck me.

 

[Wheels]

my head hurts after that one.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

you've got to have a second option. for fucks sake.


PHX knew Roy was getting the ball.

 

[mgb]

I can't believe they took so long to take a shot. Force Miller to take a shot. At least he was smart enough to put it up.
