You guys get excited about one decent shooting night, but aren't phased by the 4 bad ones. Overall, LA's FG% has been bad this year, it's been going down every year for a couple of years.

Since you worry every game about everything you get "phased" enough for all of us.

Aldridge 26, rest of the team 24

Gotta throw some counters to that LA attack. Interesting to see if they defend LA Differently IN The second half, cuz he's wide opennot now

 

[KingSpeed]

Whose our third stringer? Barton?

Batum? He's got 9 assists already

I think it would have to be Batum. He's wanting to pass more than shoot during this game.

On the other hand, you haven't been excited all season about anything except bashing the team

HCP did get Rice drunk! I knew it!

 

[BrianFromWA]

LMA gold when he's not being guarded. The DEN announcers remarked a couple of times that, with no DEN defenders within 5 feet, it's like he's shooting alone in the gym and they're not surprised he's making a bunch of them.

The great thing is that he's shooting (and making) when wide open, and mixing in some work in the paint (getting FTs). That's sustainable. Shooting when defended is not.

 

[magnifier661]

Wow batum

 

[EGame]

Wow batum

Over him yet?

 

[BrianFromWA]

double-pick up top---weird to see RoLo and LMA both up there until I saw Nic wide open down low. Nice play setup.

 

[julius]

Not a good feeling about the start of the 2nd half.

 

[BrianFromWA]

DEN's had 2 "Portland Special" travel calls tonight. Weird to see.

 

[BrianFromWA]

Not confident in Nic's shot right now.

 

[julius]

Nic should just stop shooting.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

MSG staffer says that the Nets super fan that was kicked out without his prosthetic leg was ejected because he had hit somebody with it.

 

[magnifier661]

The French tickler ain't tickling me in the right places

 

[magnifier661]

Is that true? We haven't hit a 3 pointer?!

 

[Hobbesarable]

I wonder if his knee injury is still bothering him.

 

[Sinobas]

0-10 from 3, that's the game right there.

 

[riverman]

Not a good start

 

[riverman]

0-10

 

[MickZagger]

Nic should just stop shooting.

He only has 3 attempts.

 

[Boise Blazer]

0-10 from 3, that's the game right there.

Now that I can agree with

 

[Hobbesarable]

Bummer. Dame with 4 fouls now.

 

[magnifier661]

Finally

 

[kingslayer]

Blake with the Blazers' first three. Wow

 

[riverman]

Blake breaks the drought
