Is the hack-a-dj really sensible right now? It's not like we have unlimited fouls.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Hack a Jordan is stupid while we're on a roll.

Possibly but it's good to try and see the effect

 

[Jade Falcon]

We need to bench Lillard. Poor guy looks like he's gonna shit his pants or barf.

 

[noknobs]

Lets see, we finally have a flow to the offense, the Clippers aren't hitting shit, and what do we do? We hack-a-Jordan, slow the game to grinding halt, take away all momentum we had, and give them free points at the line.

Brilliant.

I'd want Frazier in there instead of Dame if we are hacking Jordan; let him foul.

 

[The Professional Fan]

It's working

By that logic then shouldn't we do it every moment he's on the floor? We have the lead and there was over 3:00 mins left before halftime. I mean, is that what we're actually doing? Just fuck it? Jordan's on the floor just foul him no matter scenario? Interesting

If he makes a few then we stop

No it's not

That's an ad absurdum fallacy.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

No it's not

Then we will stop

Players can only foul 6 times each. That's why.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Look we stopped

 

[KingSpeed]

Hack a Jordan killed our run. We haven't scored since.

 

[noknobs]

If he makes a few then we stop

He made a few, we stopped, and now all momentum is back with the Clippers. It was fucking stupid.

 

[Chris Craig]

With moves like that Griffin could be a ballerina

 

[The Professional Fan]

That's an ad absurdum fallacy.

Huh?

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Maybe we lost momentum because Dame was in.

 

[Driew]

Does Dame have food poisoning or something? Looks ill!

I know. It just seemed like a VERY odd time to employ such a strategy

 

[KingSpeed]

Nice pass Plum!

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Huh?

It means taking your opponent's position in an argument and trying it make it look stupid by exaggerating it to an extreme that isn't logical. "Well why don't we foul every play?" is absurd.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Plums is our savior

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Well that was fucking dumb

 

[KingSpeed]

The proble with hack a Jordan was we were feeding off our great defense. Once we started fouling, it killed our momentum. It really fucking sucks. We could've gone up 10.

 

[KingSpeed]

This really blows. Bad coaching, point blank,

Wasn't trying to make anyone look stupid. Well except the act of hack-a-jordan with momentum, with a lead, with over 3:00 mins left before half. To me it had no reasoning. That was my point. Perhaps that wasn't clear.

 

[Chris Craig]

Bullshit

 

[KingSpeed]

People in replay center are watching Mavs Kings. They don't care about this shit.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Refs doing work

 

[KingSpeed]

Bad bad coaching
