if ant is balanced and has his feet set, he doesn't miss

 

[illmatic99]

Hood can’t even get a shot up

that was on dame

 

[Tince]

Portland gets up by 15-16 points, then Orlando goes on a run. Then Portland gets up by 15-16, then Orlando goes on a run...

NBA basketball.. it's FANtastic!

 

[Labinot41]

Ant on fire

 

[James lamphear]

Well both teams offense heated up but that might both defense wasn't very good we won that quarter 34-30.

 

[bobf]

Beware the Fire Ant!

Quit with your antics.

 

[Serbian]

We can not give up lead while Dame is on bench

 

[Darkwebs]

Quit with your antics.

Liar, liar, Ant’s on fire!

 

[julius]

That was a bad 5 point swing caused by Simons.

 

[bobf]

Thank God now sit his ass

 

[Tince]

We can not give up lead while Dame is on bench

Oh, I think we could! Don't think we will though.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Ok then.

 

[Darkwebs]

Jeez, Melo is just shooting everything like he’s friggin Rambo

 

[julius]

Whats with the poor passes into Melo?

 

[bobf]

Liar, liar, Ant’s on fire!

That’s a great one or should I say fAntastic..

 

[Tince]

I'm not a huge Melo guy, but amazed that people are freaking out over him being a volume shooter with 19 points on 13 attempts, yet loving on GTJ for 15 points on 17 attempts (3 of those coming on a bank).

 

[BlazerBeav]

Melo spot up shooting is fine. It’s some of the forced stuff on the block I don’t care for.

 

[rotary111]

Simons has really improved the drive and kick.

 

[Labinot41]

Okay melo i see you. Credit where credit is due

 

[bobf]

He’s putting on a clinic or I’m going to the clinic.

 

[B-Roy]

I'm not a huge Melo guy, but amazed that people are freaking out over him being a volume shooter with 19 points on 13 attempts, yet loving on GTJ for 15 points on 17 attempts (3 of those coming on a bank).

There is definitely Gary angst this game...

 

[Tince]

Whoever said don't play Dame and bench Melo must've have really wanted us to lose.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Good job by Melo to get back and steal it.

 

[julius]

I'm not a huge Melo guy, but amazed that people are freaking out over him being a volume shooter with 19 points on 13 attempts, yet loving on GTJ for 15 points on 17 attempts (3 of those coming on a bank).

One of the players is shooting 42% from the floor and 45% from 3, and the other is below 38% in both.

(not saying Gary doesn't sometimes over shoot it, he does)

 

[B-Roy]

What is this group doing???

 

[illmatic99]

terry looks annoyed at enes for some reason

 

[bobf]

Hopefully from 12 to 11 is like 5,000 points.

 

[Tince]

To Trent's credit:

 

[illmatic99]

I'm not a huge Melo guy, but amazed that people are freaking out over him being a volume shooter with 19 points on 13 attempts, yet loving on GTJ for 15 points on 17 attempts (3 of those coming on a bank).

where were you when he had 9 points on 10 shots, without an assist and like 2 PASSES (not assists) the first half?

 

[James lamphear]

Trent start good in the game but he hasn't score this half.

 

[wizenheimer]

I really don't give a shit about how well Melo is shooting...I just hate that Blazer broadcasts of games have, in part, turned into testimonials for carmelo anthony
