Rice thinks we should play defense.

Rice thinks we should play defense.

I dunno? That seems like a pretty dodgy strategy.

 

[Sedatedfork]

If they can trim this lead to 12 by the end of the 3rd I will be happy.

Captain Obvious.

Also with a game in Utah tomorrow the Blazers probably only have 12min to make this a 10pt game or less.

I think that's what made them over look this game.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Is that it???? We're expecting more than that. Give us the dirt. What does he say about Nate? Blake? I'm sure part of the reason for our miserable performance can also be attributed to Outlaw - not to mention Sheed, Damon, Zbo and Jack! [/Sarcasm]

Gramps...

K.

He broke down our offense, and our defense. He says what he would do is start Miller, Roy, Rudy, Aldridge and Oden, and play all of them until they fell over. He says there are 3 teams that play like college teams do, and Portland is one of them. (I asked, he was talking about 2 units) He says it's effective, but only in the regular season. It has been proven to be a poor strategy over the years I guess?

Bayless is the only PG on the team that can stay in front of anyone, but he will never get any whistles until the refs see him play more. He said Batum got a lot of whistles early last year, but then the refs got used to him, and they didn't call him for as many touch fouls.

Oden should get the ball on every play. He thinks it should be him the the offense runs through because of his passing ability.

He doesn't understand why we don't run more. He says we have the perfect players on our roster to run.

He thinks the Mike's are funny, but said it's obvious who pays their salary because they are shills for the coaching staff.

If they can actually keep the deficit the same as it is now, I'd be surprised.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Nice defense by Blake LOL

 

[RoyToy]

Blake can't run a fastbreak

 

[Sedatedfork]

How odd would it be for there to be only two times in the NBA that a team has been doubled up, both times being the Blazers.

Thanks MM!

[Mediocre Man]

I love that Nate says push it with Blake in the game


If he was serious about running, Miller would be in the game.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Throw the fucking ball into Oden still

 

[mgb]

What a bs call.

 

[Sedatedfork]

Blake gets in the boxscore!

 

[Nikolokolus]

Nate, sit Greg down!! He just got his third!

 

[RoyToy]

Still down 21

 

[mgb]

Nice jam by Oden.

 

[FeloniusThunk]

That was a BS charge for Oden (big surprise).

 

[B-Roy]

If you're going to run, at least put Andre in?

 

[The Sebastian Express]

Blake looks 12 in that santa hat.

 

[FeloniusThunk]

To Memphis' credit, they are hitting jumpers and tough shots, even after the Blazers finally start to show a little D.

That's part of the problem with not playing D initially, once guys get their confidence going, it is much harder to shut them down.

Just take it into Oden,,,,well now he's going out.

I've never heard any of that stuff before. I think he must be high

 

[Rodolfo]

If we get to within 15 by the end of the 3rd, we've got a great shot to come back.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Everybody realizes the reason we are making a run was Oden except his team. Throw him the fucking ball when he is in the game.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Aint this a cluster fuck of a game

 

[Rodolfo]

BROY has 19/8/6...

 

[Sedatedfork]

Hopefully Rudy can get hot hot hot
