You are only 4 away from your 1000th post! That gets you a free night with Mrs HCP.

 

[THE HCP]

Alright there has to be some rules..... This guy can't start threads before we land in the god damned city! And he should let me start some every now and then!!!!


By the way, we just landed and are heading to the hotel!

 

[jlprk]

This 10,000 post rule is great. Welcome back, HCP! We prepared a straw mat for you in the garage, unless the dog grabbed it.

Let's see if Lillard learns from what the Nets did to him last night

In your opinion, what did the Nets do to Lillard last night? I did not get to see the game.

I felt like Deron Williams and Marshon Brooks just bullied him around. They're just big physical guards that pushed him out of his comfort zone. Lillard was working so hard on defense he just didn't seem to have it on the other end. You have to remember that Lillard has never really faced a PG like Williams--6'3, 210lbs, great passing skills, good defense. It had to be a real shock to his system.

The NBA is full of smart people, and I think a lot of teams are going to try to cover Damian with their SG to force that size mismatch. But Lillard was able to force some switches in the second half using his quickness around picks--I think both he and the team will adjust by setting better picks and running more offense through Wes.

Anyway, the big adjustment Damian has to make this game is that he has to not be going against Deron Williams. Luckily it's a pretty easy adjustment. There's only one of them in this league.

NJ didn't allow him to get into the lane. Damian seems to have a harder time of that than I expected, actually. He had a hard time setting up the offense as well.


Defenses will scout that

Lillard dominated DWill (13/6/6 while DWill had 5/0/5) for most of the game but after his 3rd/4th qtr rest, he and the rest of the team were out of sync. Same with Leonard. He completely dominated Lopez in the first half but after too long of a rest in the second half, he came back in out of sync.

Anyone know Aldridge's status for tonight?

 

[THE HCP]

What's up from Auburn Hills bitches!

Kingspeed at this game?

 

[KingSpeed]

No. But I'm at Washington and Boston. What's with Wes getting sick? What have he and Nic been up to?

Lol dude they are teammates. They can catch what the other has. It's like school.

Developing chemistry. Really good chemistry.

HCP got sick first. Maybe HCP, Wes and Nic have a thing going.

 

[KingSpeed]

Alright. Let's blowout these fuckers.

 

[KingSpeed]

By the way, we are on a 4 game winning streak in games in which all 5 starters play.

 

[Boise Blazer]

I must have missed that Singler has been playing well

 

[Haakzilla]

...streaming link w/ Mike & Mike, anyone?!

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

That's silly. If you were a young, in-shape NBA player with millions would you pick HCP for a threesome?

 

[Boise Blazer]

It's probably not fair but that's a shot i expect Batum to make

 

[Boise Blazer]

Nice pass Dame

 

[illmatic99]

Lamarcus has become an awful defender.

 

[KingSpeed]

Worst we've shot all year but D is decent

 

[Boise Blazer]

Well this is gross... And our bench isn't even in yet
