Have you seen hoopsjock? He's bigger and meaner than HCP.

Who is HCP?

 

[trailblazer18]

Dame climbed to 5th in the league in PER. At 32 now. Just nuts. Only Davis/Blake/Jokic/Steph ahead of him.

Nurk and Zack have nice PER's as well.

 

[Lanny]

Who is HCP?

Hispanic Causing Panic.

 

[Strenuus]

Lol. Did he call him that on purpose or was it a slip of the tongue?

Total slip of the tongue, but it was great!

 

[Boob-No-More]

Who is HCP?

Some guy who used to post here. Also went by @handclap problematic.

BTW, True Story: handclap problematic was THE original HCP. He started posting on the old BBF Blazers forum in November, 2003.

The recent impostor @HCP didn't start posting there as HispanicCausinPanic until July, 2005. Fucking noob!

This has to be a Freudian slip, if there ever was one.

 

[Labinot41]

All credit to the Magic fan. Thanks bro

 

[Labinot41]

Nice of Magic to foul Lillard for no reason at the end of the Game to get him 40

If Ed could shoot he’d still be here. Zach is a hybrid in the AD mold, he can play both front court positions. He’s still more of a PF to me. Traditional centers still give him more trouble than perimeter oriented players. But playing PF shouldn’t limit him to floating on the perimeter, especially offensively. He was forced into that last year because Davis was a non threat anywhere away from the rim. I want to see Collins start with Nurk. Look at how Portland played with Aldridge and Lopez. Collins and Nurk would be a more athletic version of that.

I think Zach would be great at PF. However, I like having a defensive anchor on both the first and second teams. That's why I'm happy with Zach playing mostly backup C right now.

He is also known as HPV.

Well, according to some, Aminu is one of the best defenders in the league, so...

Aminus Defense is a bit overrated imo

 

[crandc]

You can answer that one yourself. When was the last time it was cool to refer to yourself in the 3rd person? I believe it was 1982, the year Ricky Henderson stole 130 bases.

BNM

Rickey Henderson, please.

 

[Boob-No-More]

Rickey Henderson, please.

Oops, should have known you'd catch that!

He was kind of the Steve Blake of the Oakland A's (or in Rickey speak, Steve Blake was the Rickey of the Portland Trail Blazers). Didn't he play for the A's four separate times?

BNM

 

[BBert]

He made it look effortless. Boy that PG rotation in Orlando could use some work

Every time they showed Augustin he looked depressed. I used to want him as our backup PG. How's he doing these days?

 

[BBert]

well done fellas

loved the post match comments from Dame

"the guy behind their bench wouldnt stop talking, 2nd half i couldnt hear him talking anymore..."

"Meyers....... well he didnt play many minutes, but...."

I don't usually listen to post game stuff but that's the second time this year I've caught Dame giving Meyers props.

 

[BBert]

Calabro made me LOL after the game when they were talking about Dame's heckler, and Calabro said something like: "Somebody give that guy a ticket to Miami; and sit him behind the bench."

[eyeroll]

Aminu can defend. No question. He doesn’t patrol the paint though.

Unlike Steve Blake, a hall of famer and one of the greatest of all time.

I'm watching Making A Murderer and am really thinking of starting to add this legalese into my lexicon......FAMS!

Seriously, Law And Order is the longest running TV series in American History and you never once picked that phrase up?

You know I've never seen an episode of it. Love lawyer/law movies too. Just never stopped to watch one.

I remember hearing about BBF, but I don't remember where or from who. Signed up right after the Martell Webster draft I think. I think Kevin Pritchard and Tom Penn told me about it and said I should join. Wheels maybe. But they all knew who I was on there and used to give me shit for my posts. Thanks to that one guy who ruined it for us and we all moved here. Love this place FAMS!

I'm joking. I remember him.
