Last time I saw one was a used Q tip I threw away

No. River. I know you were in a Funkadelic tribute band in Manila and sported that haircut regularly. You can't hide the truth!

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I'm pretty happy with his defense and playmaking.

I saw a lot of dribbling, one assist and average defense.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Funny how playing D makes this team fun to watch.

 

[DUB]

Up until that last three by Crabbe, Leonard was our top scorer for the half.

Leonard - 11 pts
Crabbe - 13 pts

 

[ripcityboy]

Oh man, the Ducks beat UCLA!!! Don't I like a feel like a horses ASS!!!

 

[Jade Falcon]

I had a HORRIBLE connection, so I missed most of that. I think I got it fixed with a new, lower-quality stream.

Someone give me a brief run down of how we're doing. How's Meyers doing? I saw he scored a couple of 3s?

Looks like CJ is doing okay too?

not quite yet unless my feed is really delayed

 

[LuckyShot]

and it's time to bring up how well Crabbe plays with the starting unit.....I got bashed for mentioning it so many times...length at the 2 makes a difference

With him at the 2, playing the switching defense starts to make a little more sense. Crabbe, Harkless, Aminu, and Plumlee are all long limbed and athletic.

 

[H.C.]

So if Portland wins this game.
How long after the end of the game does it take for jinxspeed to login and start making threads on how Portland is going on a winning streak?

Well my bad.

 

[Nikolokolus]

He's active, he sees the floor, he's been OK.

 

[BlayZa]

for the love of god please dont let us have a stereotypical 2nd half

 

[Cippy91]

It's the Kings...they aren't good

 

[ripcityboy]

Ducks knock off number 2. UCLA.....89-88

 

[EGame]

It's the Kings...they aren't good

we arent either. threrefore any win is a good win at this point.

 

[Jade Falcon]

Are we actually playing better WITHOUT Lillard?

 

[Nikolokolus]

It's the Kings...they aren't good

Maybe so, but at least the Blazers aren't playing down to their level.

It's OK, to say the team is having a nice game.

 

[riverman]

look up and give it a good shake!

 

[EGame]

this defense is so active and beautiful

 

[Nikolokolus]

Are we actually playing better WITHOUT Lillard?

I think it might be the CJ/Damian duo that's the real issue. They give up too much on D and the offense is too much of them isolating.

 

[EGame]

3j!

it would be tough to sell it to CJ, but inserting Crabbe as the starter and CJ being Jamal Crawford like 6th man (though I imagine more consistent) could be killer.

 

[riverman]

I'd say we're playing better without CJ at the 2 guard

 

[PtldPlatypus]

That's Awesome!!!! but umm... a washington state sign???

What do ya think of the seats?

Awesome seats, thank you! And, umm...you don't know what the state of Oregon looks like?

 

[PtldPlatypus]

I'd say we're playing better without CJ at the 2 guard

Crabbe is arguably having his best game of the year tonight.

 

[SheedSoNasty]

Crabbe..... Last time I saw a hair color like that it was on top of a gas rig trying to kill Mel Gibson. (hi hat splash)

Thanks folks, I'll be here all week.

My wife thinks it looks like mac n cheese.

 

[H.C.]

Cousins needs to stop flopping god.

 

[Shaboid]

No minutes for Ed Davis in the first half?

 

[ripcityboy]

Jesus. I guess Walton had a cataleptic fit at the end of the Oregon game. Not so chill Bill!
