BREAKING NEWS>>>>New Starting Lineup

[ucatchtrout]

On Rip City Live, Jason Quick is reporting that there will be a new starting lineup tonight. He would not reveal what it was, but hinted that it would look like the old Blazer teams and the focus would be on Brandon Roy...and getting him going.

Focus of the second unit would be getting another player going.

 

[Buzz Killington]

I'm guessing:

Miller
Roy
Rudy
LMA
Oden

the focus of the 2nd unit is...Blakey?

I'm guessing the other player on the 2nd unit will be Rudy.

1st

Andre
Roy
Webster
LMA
Oden

2nd

Blake
JBay
Fernandez
Howard/Cunningham
Joel

 

[B-Roy]

Oh GOD DAMN NO. I think Oden is being benched!

 

[Ed O]

I'm guessing:

Miller
Roy
Rudy
LMA
Oden

the focus of the 2nd unit is...Blakey?

Hahaha.

I would guess (pessimistically):

Blake
Roy
Rudy
Aldridge
Joel

Ugh. I hope I'm wrong.

Ed O.

 

[B-Roy]

Hahaha.

I would guess (pessimistically):

Blake
Roy
Rudy
Aldridge
Joel

Ugh. I hope I'm wrong.

Ed O.

Yeah, I'm thinking this too. Ohh god please no...

 

[Buzz Killington]

Bench Oden would be fucking retarded.

 

[ucatchtrout]

I prefer any of the lineups you guys suggested to the one I fear....

the same thing he started the season with...
Blake
Roy
Webster
Aldridge
Oden

focus of the second unit getting Fernandez the ball.

 

[Ed O]

Bench Oden would be fucking retarded.

I know it's all just a house of cards in terms of speculation, but benching Oden would be saying, pretty much, that Oden and Roy can't play together.

Is there a Blazers fan alive that isn't afraid of the coach taking that approach to our franchise's future?

I'll take that. I don't want Oden and Roy to be determined to be incompatible.

Ed O.

 

[THE HCP]

martell

 

[B-Roy]

Webster starting for Miller.

Blake escapes again.

 

[barfo]

I'm gonna say Blake, Roy, Webster, Aldridge, Joel.

barfo

 

[ucatchtrout]

I'll take that. I don't want Oden and Roy to be determined to be incompatible.

Ed O.

Good. Because thats what we're getting.

 

[B-Roy]

So basically, we just went back to our original starting lineup?

 

[BengalDuck]

I'll take that. I don't want Oden and Roy to be determined to be incompatible.

Ed O.

Makes Roy for Paul easier.

 

[oldguy]

... B-Roy beat me to it.

 

[ehizzy3]

why is webster starting? hes been playing horrible

 

[B-Roy]

why is webster starting? hes been playing horrible

He's the only SF on the roster.

 

[ucatchtrout]

why is webster starting? hes been playing horrible

Because Blakey will be a good boy and slow the game down and pass the ball to Brandon at the top of the key every time down the floor.

Now we'll get treated to the same offense we ran the last ten minutes of the game against Atlanta for most of the game.

 

[barfo]

why is webster starting? hes been playing horrible

Presumably, it's not about webster, it's about Roy.
Or, perhaps the roulette wheel stopped on 23.

[Buzz Killington]

Webster: sink or swim mode. Nate will force him to embarrass himself so much that he'll HAVE to play better.

 

[B-Roy]

Presumably, it's not about webster, it's about Roy.
Or, perhaps the roulette wheel stopped on 23.

barfo

What if it landed on a number no one wears?

 

[KingSpeed]

This is obvious, folks:

Nate is starting Blake, Roy, Webster, Howard, and Oden. LMA will be the focus of the second unit.

 

[barfo]

What if it landed on a number no one wears?

Then you have to trade for that player.

barfo

 

[B-Roy]

Then you have to trade for that player.

barfo

I wish Martell still wore 8...

 

[SlyPokerDog]

MILLER BENCHED?!?!

WTF!

 

[Mediocre Man]

So no official word yet?

I am gonna go with

Blech
Roy
Webster
Aldridge
Joel


We are playing the Wolves, so we will be successful, and Nate can praise his new line. He will be banking that the lemmings forget we blew them out twice with Miller as the starter

 

[Blazer4life]

This is obvious, folks:

Nate is starting Blake, Roy, Webster, Howard, and Oden. LMA will be the focus of the second unit.

Hahahaha. Eric, I think this is the funniest thing you have ever said. Nice way to lighten the mood in here.
