Agreed.
 
So, we've been winning because of Miller and Camby, not Roy and LA. However, we won plenty of games last year without Miller or Camby. Have Miller and Camby won any games without Roy and LA? If we replaced Roy and LA in the rotation with Webster and Howard (giving spot minutes to Cunningham and Pendergraph), how many of the last 12 games would we have won?

Isn't it possible that all of our starters are contributing to wins, which is why they're starters? Isn't it possible that we'll replace Camby and/or Miller with other starting-caliber players when they are no longer with the team? Can't we just enjoy how the team is playing now rather than kvetch about how things might be in a couple years?

There's an old saying--Don't borrow trouble. There's enough to worry about today. You might want to consider it, Mixum.
 
If/When the Blazers do win a championship, it'll be at least a year too late.
 
if the blazers win a title in the 3 years, Mixum will never post here again.

As a poster on this internet forum, I for one don't give a fuck either way.

Watching you melt down in your threads is actually a nice diversion for the serious business that is Zers basketball.

I needed a new heel for my shoe, so, I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. Give me five bees for a quarter, you'd say.

Now, where was I...? Oh yeah. The important thing was that I had an onion tied to my belt, which was the style at the time. You couldn't get white onions, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones...

In the business of radio, ratings define success. Higher ratings, more advertisements sold. Achieve higher ratings by being controversial, polarizing. You don't even have to believe your own bullshit as long as it's the kind of bullshit that gets people buzzing, pissed off, calling the show, tuning in. Rudy is in radio. Rudy is honing his craft at the expense of all of us. He's using us. Stop feeding him. He's just a poor man Canzano.

I hear ya, and agree in principle. However, if people DON'T stop responding (which is quite probable), the other option is to have fun with it. Kind of like calling Canzano and arguing that the NBA baskets are entirely too round.

Actually, what I'd like to see is Mixum continue his shtick, but just in a more entertaining form. Going forward, could you post in verse? Or, to use vernacular more suited to your profession...Drop some dope rhymes on us, yo!
 
There is a reason that the games have the appearance you mention, and once you realize why things are the way they are, it makes sense. The last few games have been against playoff teams. Playoff teams in the west will work their ass off to take away your #1 and #2 options in the offense. Like last year with Houston and Roy, and then nobody else stepped up and we got beat. So I am not concerned. What is happening, is pretty normal IMO. The fact that other players are stepping up, is in fact, a relief.

WHAT? This is a team game?!?! You mean that when other teams double & go into a zone we'll need our 3rd, 4th, & 5th options to help us win games? Naw, Roy & LMA just suck ballz.

Lmao! Good point.
 
So Roy had a mediocre game against OKC. So what? Against OKC Kobe had... 11 points, 9 turnovers, -22 plus/minus. Artest went 1/6.

Plz no more KingSpeedian extrapolations

every gm makes moves?

really? what did kpee do last year with the best chip at the deadline? he whiffed. and dont give me that andre miller shit (we signed him cause of RLEC) as i said a billion times... miller was coming here in a sign and trade regardless if we signed hedo. and miller is leaving after next year... its that all kpee had?
Click to expand...
on top of all the other things you've been wrong about in this thread and in general, Miller's deal has a team option after next year at more or less the same reasonable rate. If Portland wants to keep him and he doesn't retire, he stays... don't you think that was a smart move by KP?
shut up

I'd worry about you if that happened ... My first thought is that you'd fall in to a pit of euphoria and commit suicide.

With his logic on basketball alone, it doesn't surprise me that he's a middle-aged DJ on a horrible radio station.

The critical thinking skills that he possesses tells the whole story.
 
middle aged dj huh? lol... you see the money this middle age dj makes...

and in my life ive heard all the comments about being a dj and how its an easy job and this and that and all kinds of shots but lots of those same people change jobs very other year and hate their jobs/lifes.... not many can work 3 hours a day and get paid like i do so maybe mr zags ou should step up to the plate with some info about yourself that you can prove.... and until then dont hate with your jealousy, just sit down and shut up.... like a good lil zags fan.
