Game Thread GAME# 19: MAVERICKS @ BLAZERS - DECEMBER 1, 2015 - TUESDAY, 7:00 PM (PST), CSNNW & NBATV

[KingSpeed]

How many teams are in your league? Crabbe isn't even rosterable in a 10 team league

12 team. And I fucking need 3s. Fuck!!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I love how this team continues to fight even when down.

 

[Tunchi]

God Crabbe was such a great pick up for a 2nd rounder. He's doing as good as you wanted from him this year. He should be even better next year.

 

[KingSpeed]

Maybe Olshey is putting pressure on Stotts to play Vonleh, since Vonleh was the centerpiece in the Nic Batum trade. So far, he's not shown any flashes of anything.

A few games ago, he had a 15 second stretch where he hit a three, blocked a shot, and then dunked. Great flash. He also hit a game tying three down the stretch of a game a couple weeks ago.

 

[Sinobas]

I'm not sure but I appreciate the question.

I figured only you would have the answer.

 

[Blazinaway]

Meyers starts it off with a bang!

after shooting 42% from 3 last season coming into today he was at a basement level 23.7%, lets hope to hell he reverses course from here!

 

[riverman]

Great production off the bench

Crabbe and Barton were both awesome picks.

 

[LuckyShot]

Nice play!

 

[LuckyShot]

Dirk is just killing us and we aren't even making him work that hard for it.

 

[LuckyShot]

Hendo just hasn't found a niche with this team yet...

That was kind of lucky though. Has he looked like a good shooter? Good post up man? Good rebounder, defender, slasher, what does he bring? You usually see those types of flashes in young players that are going to be good.

 

[Sinobas]

Hendo just hasn't found a niche with this team yet...

I'll find a niche for him.....

 

[The Professional Fan]

12 team. And I fucking need 3s. Fuck!!

I can see that

 

[Sinobas]

CJ's in a funk

 

[riverman]

lotta rebounds to get

 

[Blazinaway]

I've seen flashes of all of the above. He's clearly been working on post moves, they just aren't second nature yet. He handles the ball well and has good body control for a big man. He sometimes hits outside shots, but he at least doesn't look horrible shooting it. But all of it has been only flashes. Nothing consistent yet, besides maybe rebounding. He seems to have good instincts and ability to hit the boards.

Can this asshole stop shooting? GTFO Henderson. gives us NOTHING

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Dirk is just killing us and we aren't even making him work that hard for it.

We're Rope-A-Dope'ing him. By the 4th qrt he'll be too tired to even play.

 

[illmatic99]

get this piece of shit off the floor

Totally agree with this. Foundation is there.

I think we tried that with the Clippers last night by letting them dunk every shot attempt in the 1st quarter in the hopes that they would be too tired to run with us in the second half.

 

[LuckyShot]

CJ's in a funk

He's taking a lot of tough shots though...

 

[LuckyShot]

Fuck it, let's play zone. We have the personnel for it.

 

[KingSpeed]

Henderson taking over

 

[VanillaGorilla]

get this piece of shit off the floor

Two good plays in a row.

 

[riverman]

Henderson just shook off the rust

 

[illmatic99]

2 baskets thinks hes hot shit

 

[Blazinaway]

if we trash him bad he'll likely have a good game! so far it might be workin
