Game Thread GAME# 67: MAGIC @ BLAZERS - MARCH 12, 2016 - SATURDAY, 7:30 PM (PST), KGW

Plumlee went over to contest Fourniers layup and Fournier threw his right leg out kicking Plums in the Nards. There is no way that was an accident. Considering what had just transpired, I expected an ejection. Unfortunately Plums was in no condition to confront Fournier and force the refs to review the play. I wished Plums would have gone after him at some point but it didn't seem like he realized it was intentional. It would have been fun to see what would have happened if Fournier had done that to Boogie. Hell even Meyers is more of an enforcer/payback guy than Plumlee.

No one knees Nards in the nards!

Now, getting cocked on the chin...

Where the HELL is the real MarAzul!!??

The real MarAzul does calculate the A/M for PG's. I has become a habit through years of watching the game.

What is A/M?

 

[BBert]

What is A/M?

Amplitude Modulation. As opposed to Frequency Modulation. It's how people used to listen to music.

 

[BBert]

Whatever you do, please don't ask this crowd what ATM is.

 

[MarAzul]

What is A/M?

Assist over Missed Field Goal Attempts. A metadata stat use to anticipate the tendencies of the PG. Anticipate the effect of pressure on the PG, will he get rid of the ball, effectively setting up his teammates, or be pressured into the low percentage attempt. Last night, they pressured Damian quite a bit, setting traps for him with two defenders. I thought teams would do this more and more
as the season winds down. He handled it very well, passing early out of it, and his mates made them pay. His A/M reflects this for one game, an outstanding 2.0. However, his A/M for his career is .65, about standard for a SG, not so good for your ball handling PG. It suggest pressuring him hard, especially since he is the leading scorer, he will chuck it up.
They did it last night, he handled it extremely well.

Ha! I probably should have answered the question with your answer.

So I had a night....Before heading out the door to the game, I WATCHED my wife select this game and set the COMCAST DVR to record with an hour extension. Ill get to this later....

Halfway through the second I ducked out early to beat the lines at the Salt & straw.... all the while I hear screams and roars from the auditorium and i'm thinking. "Cool, Ill get to watch that later tonight..."
So my buddy and I do the same thing for the fourth, knowing we are going to win, we duck out with about 7 minutes left... again thinking i can catch the end at home.
.
.
.
Then I get home, notice the red light on the comcast box is still on and its still recording, so I hop online and check posts.
.
.
.
Then I realize I don't have my phone on me... a 32gb I5......
.
.
.
Then I trace my steps right back to the damn parking lot (after searching every crevice of the CRV....)
.
.
.
Then I head back home
.
.
.
Sad and dejected, I have one thing left to save the night. Re-watch another Blazer win I recorded.
.
.
.
I thought I recorded.
.
.
.
I FUCKING KNOW IT WAS RECORDED...


COMMIECAST SUCKS!!! I WANT MY MONEY BACK!!!!!!!!!
