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

much better. I think the team started playing...different? bad? worse? once Robinson was taken out of the lineup. Imho, Stotts went away from what worked.

Robinson brings energy, which is contagious.

 

[Darkwebs]

Trip dub! NIC!

 

[Natebishop3]

I love how the whole team cleared out so Nic could get the board.

 

[BrianFromWA]

For what? We have 9 deep with the starters followed by Mo/CJ/Robinson/Freeland

LOL at the crowd cheering. The ORL guys are thinking we get Chalupas at 110 or something.

 

[LuckyShot]

Triple double for Nic and a bucket for CJ! Great finish to an otherwise tough game to watch!

 

[RoyToy]

Ricky Davis is proud of that triple double

 

[KingSpeed]

What a feel good second half. Nic triple double. CJ gets a layup, TRob dunks. Great game guys!!

 

[LuckyShot]

God dammit, Will... Calm down lol

 

[Blazer Fanatic]

Okay, I think it's time to trade Leonard. We can't develop both players and I much prefer Robinson.

Blazers win... must... talk... trade. lol

 

[KingSpeed]

Ugh. I don't want Leonard out there, even in garbage time.

 

[Natebishop3]

Bench with 25 exactly. That's what I want to see.

 

[Strenuus]

Wow. Nic stays in just to get his triple double. That's odd.

We substituted that garbage with McDonald's garbage. LOL

 

[BBert]

TRob has one good game, and Leonard should never play again and in fact, should be traded. LOL

I love you spastic bastards.

 

[LuckyShot]

Holy shit. We outscored them 39-19 in the 4th.

 

[Natebishop3]

Blazers win... must... talk... trade. lol

Thomas Robinson kicks ass.

Must. Play. TRob.

 

[julius]

not sure why they'd need to trade either player, since they don't play the same position.

 

[BrianFromWA]

if we include Wright in the package with Meyers, we can bring back 7.9M in salary.

 

[RoyToy]

CJ hogged the ball the whole possession and then shot a 3

Mo would get killed for that

 

[Blazer Fanatic]

Good thing I showed up tonight. The negativity was really difficult to squash, but we got rid of most of it by the 4th quarter. GO BLAZERS!!!

 

[BBert]

Nico wouldn't have had to stay in if his teammates hadn't robbed him twice in 30 seconds.

 

[julius]

TRob has one good game, and Leonard should never play again and in fact, should be traded. LOL

I love you spastic bastards.

well, to be fair, they are spastic bastards AND it's not like Leonard has a stellar game right now.

 

[TBpup]

Robinson with a +22! Damn...nice effort kid.

 

[MickZagger]

CJ hogged the ball the whole possession and then shot a 3

Mo would get killed for that

Enjoy the victory, bubba

Trade Meyers for Dieng. Do you think Minnesota would go for that?

 

[LuckyShot]

Not in garbage time. In a tight game where we have other guys on the floor who are better, yes.

 

[Natebishop3]

CJ hogged the ball the whole possession and then shot a 3

Mo would get killed for that

Awesome. You've diversified. Now you've got TWO players you can bash on. One player has a trip dub? No problem! You can switch to the guy playing in his first NBA game.

 

[BrianFromWA]

CJ hogged the ball the whole possession and then shot a 3

Mo would get killed for that

Wait, you're criticizing garbage time play?

 

[LuckyShot]

LaMarcus had 36 points, but only 9 rebs. Soft. :MARIS61:

 

[BBert]

well, to be fair, they are spastic bastards AND it's not like Leonard has a stellar game right now.

Nope. Nothing's changed. Still a long-term project. His recent PT confirms it.
