Hey, that's fine by me.

If you, or anyone else in the forum, want to start a game thread, I don't mind at all. In fact, I would appreciate it. I could use a break.

And it might be cool to see another style of game thread if someone else made one.

Nooooo I love your game threads! Don't stop!

Agreed!

My game threads would look like I just punched myself out of a paper bag and used the paper bag as a canvas.

Denny please give Darkwebs a raise! Quick!

 

[KingSpeed]

2007-08 team started 5-12 and then went on 13 game win streak! Let's go BLAZERS!!!!!

 

[EGame]

The answer to the poll is Harden. Paul is an annoying bitch when he complains and does flop some, but he is still a great player both at getting his teammates easy baskets and scoring. Harden is just a flat out bitch who looks for the refs to bail him out all the time.

 

[Chris Craig]

As upset as the loss to the rockets made me...I'm ready to see the Blazers whoop the clippers ass on Friday. Go Blazers

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

Impossible to make a poll choice. Please add all of the above.

Fuck 'em both!

The flip side of the argument is that EVERYBODY knows and agrees that Harden is a little bitch, whereas most people just think CP3 is the best PG of the modern era. I hate it when whiny, floppy bitches have their bitchness overlooked just because they're otherwise pretty good at playing basketball. So fuck 'em both.

 

[HolyBackboard]

It would be cool to see us employ a different defensive strategy on the pick and roll this game. Just saying ...

 

[Chris Craig]

What are your thoughts regarding the poll question?

Fuck 'em both!

That's the spirit!

 

[BigGameDamian]

Lets see if Lillard can get more assists that Chris Paul in this game folks.

 

[Chris Craig]

Chris Paul and James Harden could always get together when they retire and open a flop school

 

[Chris Craig]

Lets see if Lillard can get more assists that Chris Paul in this game folks.

well he sure as hell isn't gonna have a better shooting percentage from the 3 than Paul

 

[Strenuus]

Lets see if Lillard can get more assists that Chris Paul in this game folks.

Do you just set yourself up to be dissapointed? Is that like, your thing?

 

[riverman]

Great poll question!

I thought so to but voted Harden because I include the entire Clippers team and coach on the other side

 

[chzbrgr]

can I just say I HATE the clippers like its a DEEP BURNING in my gut Doc Rivers is the most overrated piece of shit coach an even shitter GM and down the roster just bitch ass player after bitch ass player then Paul Pierce (all respect paid to the truth praise be his name) then another bitch ass Ballmer is a fuck boy FUCK THE CLIPPERS.

 

[BBert]

Chris Paul and James Harden could always get together when they retire and open a flop school

Or a strip club. Call it The Flop House.

 

[riverman]

I think tonight we beat these guys...I can't stand the Clippers or the Rockets

 

[riverman]

James Harden may become this guy after he retires
