Pendergraph is a foul machine
 
Freedom Fries BITCH!
 
We are now tied with Spurs for the 7th spot. But we have the tie breaker with the Spurs
 
It's ridiculous that Nic doesn't get 30+ minutes a game. He must be the worst practice player in the history of the world.



I hope all of you were proud that I didn't blame it on Mr Sonic.

Not to put a pessimistic view on this (even though I am), the Spurs are in a much better position than us simply because they have 3 less losses than us. Now, I believe they are going to be losing a lot more with how bad they have been recently, but as of now, that tie doesn't mean much to me.
 
I watched Gallinari torch him in a Euro game in 2007 and didn't think he could play D on elite players. His offense was never a question.
 
I think you're lying.

But if you're not, I feel shame, as a Batum fan. :sigh:

:wink:

Nah, but I did watch him in the 2007 Hoops summit game where he went off (against Jerryd Bayless' team no less) and I thought that he was pretty crazy athletic ... the thought that he'd ever end up in a Blazers uniform never really crossed my mind.

Koponen played in that game also.

If it makes you feel any better, by Hollinger's "Game Score" formula, Batum had a 34.6 tonight, and Deron only had a 34.2. The main difference there is that Hollinger factors in personal fouls, and gives additional value to offensive rebounds (of which Nic had 2 to Deron's 1).

Either way, they were both awesome tonight. Is this where I point out that we could have had them both right now had we not traded down for Webster?
 
...and we could have had #3...ZBO if we didn't trade him for imaginary cap space!
