GAME THREAD: Blazers @ Spurs 3/28/11, Revenge of the Spurs?

[Darkwebs]

Crash rejects Hill at the rim. Awesome

 

[illmatic99]

Didn't think our D would get worse, but it has. It's so sad that we have to go into zone so early.

 

[RoyToy]

Now Aldridge is having trouble with scoring on Splitter in the post, plus Splitter just took Aldridge to the basket and scored.

I think Aldridge's run as a "star" is coming to an end.

 

[RoyToy]

Splitter has arguable outplayed Aldridge so far

edit - Splitter takes Aldridge to the rack again and draws a foul

......

 

[craigehlo]

It's time to sit Batum and go big. This double SF lineup stinks.

 

[Darkwebs]

Our offense looks like garbage.

Do you think the league has figure him out? Or is he tired from playing 45 min a game earlier in the season? A bit of both?

 

[Darkwebs]

Big shot by Roy

 

[Darkwebs]

Dre is kicking ass!

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

I think he had a hot streak when Camby wasn't playing and now he's having to make adjustments again.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

This is why Roy isn't a PG.

 

[Darkwebs]

2 costly turnovers by Roy

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Please bench Roy.

 

[craigehlo]

Brandon Roy is simply brutal.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

Between Roy turnovers and his failed iso plays he has effectively taken us out of this game.

 

[Darkwebs]

Another roy turnover. What happened to his ball handling?

 

[VenomXL]

Great third quarter guys.

Fuck.

 

[KingSpeed]

We'll be fine. We have 12 minutes to right the ship and we're deeper.

 

[craigehlo]

Another roy turnover. What happened to his ball handling?

He was fast when he had good knees. Now his handles are exposed at 1/2 speed.

 

[illmatic99]

Still not getting why Roy is playing PG.

 

[Darkwebs]

9 points in the 3rd for the Blazers. Wow

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

Another roy turnover. What happened to his ball handling?

It's as good as it's always been. When Roy plays PG our leads evaporate. Nate knows this but keeps playing him there. I'll never know why.

 

[jlprk]

Oh God, get Roy out of there. Mills makes fewer mistakes.

I logged on just to say that and someone already said it? Okay.

I said the same thing after the last game.

 

[Darkwebs]

He was fast when he had good knees. Now his handles are exposed at 1/2 speed.

Good point.

 

[The Sebastian Express]

I think he had a hot streak when Camby wasn't playing and now he's having to make adjustments again.

He had a hot streak for two months, only one of which Camby did not play. However, his reverting to old Aldridge did occur at another person's return, no matter how much we all wish to ignore it. Notice where it started, and when it began to decline. Perhaps the answer is there.

 

[VenomXL]

Nine point third quarter?

Haha, holy shit. Pathetic.

 

[julius]

I disapprove of that 3rd quarter.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Great third quarter guys.

Fuck.

Roy looks like Ole Yeller out there. Nate, pull the trigger please.

 

[RoyToy]

Aldridge has made 0 strong moves so far against a team playing small ball

 

[VenomXL]

LOL. We are so done.
