Cup of Joe and a game: Wizards vs. Blazers game thread

[PtldPlatypus]

Awfully jumpshot happy.

They've shot 8 freethrows to our 0.

In fact, they didn't commit a single foul in the first quarter, and they also had just one turnover.

And 30 seconds after I post that, Wheels damn near quotes my post.

Miller got the hook too early. If we want to win, he needs longer stretches on the floor.

He had 2 fouls.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Maybe it's Blatche who wants to come be a Blazer. He's very active out there.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

He had 2 fouls.

Which of course, by NBA rule, means that he must sit until mid 2nd quarter, as we all have learned by watching Nate.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Wow

Rudy has a TON of rust.

 

[illmatic99]

jumper, jumper, jumper, jumper.

 

[santeesioux]

Well this sucks.

 

[BengalDuck]

Rudy is just awful right now.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

jumper, jumper, jumper, jumper.

And we're now under 50% for the game and losing the rebound battle as well. Yes, some penetration might be nice...

 

[Nikolokolus]

Terrible perimeter defense this morning.

 

[craigehlo]

Andre isn't going to foul out Nate. Put him in. He's this teams only playmaker with Roy out.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Here's an idea: Miller, Bayless, Martell not Blake, Bayless, Rudy

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Miller & Howard are our only players with a positive +/- figure at the moment. Perhaps our veterans are important...?

 

[illmatic99]

I'd try Cunningham instead of Juwan. Howard can't hang with Jamison at all.

Hey Nate must have read my mind

 

[PtldPlatypus]

I'd rather have Aldridge on him, and leave Howard on Haywood.

This.

Ugh, for some reasons those streams dont work at work.....sigh, gotta look at play by play

 

[illmatic99]

Aldridge is beastin on the boards.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Lamarcus must have read Eddie's article on Hoopshype

 

[PtldPlatypus]

I wonder if LA saw that "most disappointing" article--he seems to be on a mission to prove it wrong.

Edit: Damn Nik--you beat me to it.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Man, not a lot of rhythm in this game; everybody outside of LMA looks like they're still waiting for their 6 am wake up call.

 

[santeesioux]

Bad call.

 

[Boob-No-More]

Link anyone????

BNM

 

[illmatic99]

Jerryd again with no contribution tonight.

Edit: whoa, he has 4 assists? What?!

 

[Boob-No-More]

Link anyone????

BNM

Never mind - watching it on league pass broadband.

BNM

 

[blazerfanatic]

any link?

 

[Nikolokolus]

Watching this game reminded me of something: Anybody else as stoked as I am that Randy Foye isn't a Blazer? I hate his game.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Jerryd again with no contribution tonight.

Huh?

 

[PtldPlatypus]

That was a rough 2nd quarter. What, 6-21? 3-15 outside the paint? Hmm...what does that tell us?
