Isn't Garrett Temple also a guard? If so and they'd be playing 3 guards we should be ready to do so to

 

[KeepOnRollin]

We need a big win to rest the guys in the 4 quarter. Cmon Stotts make this happen. Road trip is coming, Chief needs to return. Gotta make a run.

You know Aminu isn't going to come back until healthy enough right? Pushing him to be out their early just makes it worse.

Good teams make the opposition change to match up with them. Not vice versa.

It is a mentality that we need to change and stat.

But wait???? You just started a fucking TANK thread.

 

[riverman]

This is a must win game

 

[Strenuus]

The Blazers suck ass. Blow it up the defense is complete trash!

Damn, I'd love to have a defense get called sucky after giving up 86 points. That must mean in other games WE ARE REALLY good.

Wanna redo that logic there?

 

[Strenuus]

I am super intrigued about this game.... I just want my 1-1 to be right NOW... I really didnt want it to be right last night.

Actually i thought the post was Sarcasm? How do you call a 99.1 defensive rating and #3 ranked defense in the NBA trash?

 

[Strenuus]

Because it's BGD?

 

[kjironman1]

Because it's BGD?

I am really bad about looking at names and figuring out what to expect from the poster.
I must be kind of narcissistic because i generally think people think reasonably?

 

[riverman]

This can only mean Nurk fever is back!

 

[kjironman1]

Sounds like Ed Davis just went "Questionable" for tonight's game. Ankle injury

Collins Leonard tag team behind Nurk then

Collins Leonard tag team behind Nurk then

Oh wow?

 

[kjironman1]

Lillard is busy today on Instagram BLASTING all the haters. Calling out people who are questioning Stotts.
I stand with Lillard.
Starting to feel sorry for what the Kings are gonna see tonight.

Well....... Not really.

 

[Mr. Robot]

Nurk about to drop 7 tonight

Well....... Not really.

If he says that, then we lose again.... I admit, it would be a little comical. Actually, comical isn't the right word. Dumbfounded, that's it.

 

[Jade Falcon]

Agreed. If we lose tonight, then it IS on the coach. The players have no excuses this time.

 

[KingSpeed]

This is a must win game

That's what people said about last night's game. Every game is must win and will count towards playoff seeding at the end of the season.

 

[GrandJury]

If we lose fuck that Fire Stotts by morning

 

[Darkwebs]

FINALLY!

 

[dviss1]

 

[Strenuus]

GAH! I'm stuck with the Blazers commentators... time to find a kings stream.

 

[Strenuus]

Perfect. Kings feed. Much happier.

 

[Darkwebs]

This is the sequel that we've been waiting for! I want the good guys to win this time.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Collins Leonard tag team behind Nurk then

Sounds like the worst porno ever

 

[Mediocre Man]

GAH! I'm stuck with the Blazers commentators... time to find a kings stream.

Ha. I said the same thing

 

[Cippy91]

Really interested how this game starts out. Will tell me a lot

 

[Jade Falcon]

Wow......lesbians CANNOT sing. Holy shit.

 

[Strenuus]

Ha. I said the same thing

Calabro is good in small doses. I'd choose almost any other teams announcers and Wheels WAY before.
