Hornets @ Rose Garden Game Thread

[KingSpeed]

I'm not going to the Nets game (I'll record it). I'm going to the first preview of SPIDERMAN: TURN OFF THE DARK instead.

 

[MickZagger]

33 points in the 1st quarter. 45 for the rest of the game?

 

[VenomXL]

I waited five days for this? Take it easy Blazers faithful. Good things will come to us soon I hope.

Are you going to post a movie thread from the theater?

Monty is the coaching version of Jermaine O'Neal.

 

[KingSpeed]

Solution: put in Mills and Babbitt when our offense stalls. Those guys can SHOOT.

Let's recap.

-Joel was supposed to come back tonight, but he suddenly had to be hospitalized.
-Brandon comes back and looks OK, but still clearly not himself.
-Rudy comes out energized, only to take a knee to the nads, and will probably be out for the near future.
-Marks plays his best game as a Blazer only to (of course) roll his ankle.
-LaMarcus looks even worse than last year at handling double teams.
- Nate reverts to the Roy offense in the fourth quarter and fails AGAIN.
- Nate crosses his arms as Monty coaches circles around him AGAIN.

Fuckin hell, this season is painful.

My new name for this team is the Portland Boring Blazers. I can't even sit through and watch a whole game anymore. I'll usually just watch parts of the 1st quarter, then tune in to some of the 4th.

They coast around like it's church league. We'll usually see one nice streach, where they build a lead, then they just stop playing. I don't know what's up with these guys, but they are not really entertaining. Now, I"m just following them out of habit. I hope we re-build and get an interesting team.

Why is everyone so surprised?

It's my fault, I started watching at the end of the 1st quarter.

It's not a movie. It's a new Julie Taymor Broadway musical with music by Bono and The Edge. Most expensive Broadway show ever. Will be huge colossal hit or the most epic flop of all time. I was gonna go to the Nets game but then decided to be a part of theater history instead. I'll always be able to say I was there when it started.

 

[illmatic99]

Oh, I hated those jerseys. They looked so gimmicky and amateur, sorta like the team.

Baboon-ass ugly.

Mike Rice: Luke Babbitt is a young Jermaine O'Neal

Reminds him of JO, in that he's really good in practice, but can't get game time.

I know. If it's true, let's trade him so that he can be an All Star.

DING, DING, DING! We have a winner!

 

[KingSpeed]

No one ever bashes Batum around here. It's spooky. He had 5 points and no rebounds but somehow, it's always someone else's fault.

 

[illmatic99]

You know what the most sad thing is?

We went from potentially having Monty Williams as a replacement coach to Bernie fuckin Bickerstaff.

We're fucked.

Nate: "We can't shoot."

I didn't watch but it looks like he played like shit ...

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

This team is the epitome of mediocrity. It's tough to even get mad these days after a loss.

CP3 picked us apart today.

On nights like tonight, why not throw Babbitt in there a little earlier than garbage time?

 

[illmatic99]

"We're just not knocking down shots. We're getting shots, just not knocking them down from the perimeter. 39% just not gonna get it done." --Nate

 

[KingSpeed]

Nate: "We can't shoot."

Patty Mills and Babbitt can. Play them on nights where the other guys can't shoot.

My care factor is down to almost 0. These guys just don't have it.

 

[DUB]

Matthews only took 6 shots, that's nowhere near enough.

 

[illmatic99]

I think Wes is taking too many. He guns it out there, and forces it way too much rather than making the smart play.

I don't really mind him shooting more, as long as he doesn't put up garbage shots like he did tonight.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

2 second chance points?!?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That is just sooooooo sad it's funny.



No wonder Joel was sick.
