GAME THREAD: MAGIC @ BLAZERS - JANUARY 8, 2014, WEDNESDAY, 7:00 PM, CSNNW

[Mediocre Man]

Wow. You think a post like this isn't trolling?

Definitely a negatroll

 

[VenomXL]

The backcourt has been invisible.

 

[oldmangrouch]

You're going to let Tobias Harris and Glenn Davis beat you? Seriously?

 

[KingSpeed]

26-10 is a perfectly acceptable record.

 

[Strenuus]

meh.

 

[BrianFromWA]

It's not a strategy. All teams in those 67 seasons have had a time where they go on a little losing streak.

Sure. The 72-win Bulls lost two in a row once. I'm not saying our world is ending, but I'm not saying that if we lost 7 of the next 9 that we're still in good position to win a championship, b/c that's what DAL did once.

[julius]

just imagine if this team played any form of defense for more than 5 minutes in the 4th.

 

[Hobbesarable]

nah, I think he's at the point where he realizes he probably won't go to a team that has a legit C and a good guard to give him a good shot. That's not to say he's not wanting to trade some teammates.

They just played a commercial where they called Turkoglu "Mr. 4th Quarter"

Hopefully it's better than that commercial with LA and Lopez.

 

[KingSpeed]

Orlando is awful

 

[VenomXL]

No one wants to shoot.

 

[LuckyShot]

Dame. We need you to take over.

 

[Strenuus]

Did Nate become the coach tonight? This offense is stagnant as hell.

 

[RoyToy]

just imagine if this team played any form of defense for more than 5 minutes in the 4th.

Terry Stotts would wonder what they are doing

 

[Natebishop3]

If anyone else was on right now, we'd be winning. Can't win with just one guy.

 

[BrianFromWA]

Dame has been way off with his last couple shots. Not even like "just a bit short", waaaay short and waaay off left.

 

[BrianFromWA]

BDL x2

 

[Blazer Fanatic]

I don't know why you're arguing this. If you drive a car, things wear out. It's a reality of vehicles.

Similarly, if you play a guy a lot of minutes, he will most likely end up wearing out earlier at the end of the season. There's a reason why San Antonio is so conservative with their guys. They want them fresh for the playoffs.

Perhaps because I've had a car for 16 years and it's had zero "repairs".

I wonder if y'all responding only drive your car half way to work, then call your boss and say you'll be walking the rest of the way so your car doesn't wear out.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Orlando is awful

That makes us horrible tonight then.

 

[craigehlo]

Free CJ

Sometimes it's like he has a hangover from a big game.

 

[julius]

did this team forget how to play?

 

[Strenuus]

Not our night. God damn.

 

[BBert]

Save us CJ.

 

[BrianFromWA]

don't take this as criticism of LMA, because he's playing pretty well, but does anyone else subscribe to the phenomenon that when one player on a team (Jordan, K*be, whoever) takes a large % of the team's shots, that everyone else's games are not as efficient?

I hate seeing Wes with a sprained ankle, with his history.

I wonder how many of us are stay at home moms and never drive their car? Mine wouldn't need repairs in 16 years either.

 

[Hobbesarable]

Grr. Mo going back into the game.

 

[VenomXL]

3-18 from three. This team cant win like that.

You still have to change things on the car. I doubt you've never swapped your breaks. I doubt you've never changed your oil. Those are part of the car, so you can't attribute them to shoes and gatorade. Things wear out on a car, similarly the body starts to wear out if you don't rest. That's why I've never really liked our guys playing in the Olympics because they don't get a rest during the summer.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Not our night. God damn.

Win or lose, this is becoming our battle cry lately
