Hire Hubie Brown now

[BBert]

It was a breath of fresh air listening to the ESPN announcers tonight, especially Hubie. Brandon and LaMarcus need to hear what they had to say.

Also, Brandon has talked about how the team doesn't have a good rhythm, but the team's rhythm was great tonight...when Brandon was on the bench.

LaMarcus and Miller have to take over this team.

And LaMarcus need to pick and roll, not pick and pop.

You didn't watch that Philly team of a couple years ago?

He has a vendetta against Dre for some reason. I'd take his comments about Miller with a grain of salt.

 

[MickZagger]

Seriously, it takes a great deal of denial to realize that Roy is hurting this team more than he is helping them right now. The announcers were even pointing this out tonight.

 

[RoyToy]

The Blazers were doing what Hubie wanted them to do and he was applauding them for it. This tells me Nate was already saying it.

That wasn't an uptempo team. They were 20th in pace, and 20th in efficiency.

As a comparison, the Blazers were 29th in pace, but 2nd in efficiency.

I just posted facts about Miller's Philly team. How is 20th in the NBA "uptempo"? I'm willing to give you a chance to explain it, given your brilliant "Status Cho" gloss.

He's always been one of my favorite analysts. I would love to have him as a coach.

+1. Well, at least about the favourite analyst part. Dunno if he's still got it as an NBA head coach. Sometimes, the game passes former coaches by.

Completely different team when Mo Cheeks was fired. I remember vividly them playing uptempo against the Magic in the 1st round when they took them to 7.

When Miller played for the 03/04 Nuggets they were 1st in pace with him at the point on a playoff team. The 04/05 Nuggets were 4th in pace. 05/06 Nuggets were 2nd in pace.

Just sayin

How did that team do in the playoffs? Or any of those Nugget teams?

Miller's Ortg in Denver - 110, 109, 107

Miller's Ortg in Portland - 111, 111

Looks like he's better for the team in a slower pace.

Does he have a son that he's imparted all of his knowledge to? Let's get that guy if he exists.

Unfortunately, your MO is to post stats whose meaning you don't even understand.

lol. So now your changing your argument? You asked if he's ever been a proven uptempo PG.

For the record, those Nuggets team have done just as good as a team led by Brandon Roy has done. Admit you were wrong about Miller playing in an uptempo system and lets move on.

I thought we wanted Larry Brown? How is he been working out in Charlotte? These players listen to these old coaches who preach fundamentals for about two months. Then they shut them out. Sloan is the only one that seems to make it last.

It's because he threatens to kick their arse if they don't do.
