Jay Allen Reporting on 750 The Game

[illmatic99]

Meh.

I feel bad for Dre because this is yet another place where he has been unappreciated.

He was unappreciated the moment he walked through the door at the PF on the first day.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Devon Harris is locker room poison and the Blazers are not trading for him.

 

[barfo]

More importantly: has he ever taken Brandon Roy out to dinner?

I think if Miller and Roy had a thing going on PapaG would surely have let us know about it. His gaydar is penetrating.

PDXjay: Blazers reportedly closing in on at least 1 trade. Andre Miller likely involved. Unclear who would be coming to Portland. Stay tuned...

 

[craigehlo]

Follow up:

PDXjay: Nothing official or confirmed yet. Fluid situation. #RipCity

 

[Natebishop3]

God I hate when they do that. If you don't have anything to report, don't report it.

I'm going to make a prediction:

PDXNate: Blazers reportedly closing in on drafting at least 1 player. The NBA draft likely involved. Unclear who would be coming to Portland. Stay tuned...

He was one of the biggest reasons why LaSoftie turned into LaMonster. Without all those easy alley oops Dre got LA, Aldridge would not have realized his ability to play on the inside more.

 

[barfo]

So, let me see if I understand this breaking news:

Someone from our team may be traded for some player or players on some other team.

Well, I guess now we know. I'll miss the player or players we traded, but I'm excited to see the player or players we traded for as Blazers. Unless, of course, we turn around and trade them to another team for other players.

Jay Allen is the biggest chicken shit shill I've ever listened to. Fuck that fat-ass.

 

[craigehlo]

2 reasons for LaMonster:

1) Worked on his post moves in the summer

2) Roy's injuries gave him opportunity

Andre is good, but I'm not giving him credit where it isn't deserved.

bwahahahaahahha..... *breath*...... bwahahahahahaa

Right. Miller hasn't made a difference here. None at all. Dude you're so delusional it's hilarious. This team wouldn't have made the playoffs the last two years without Andre Miller. Wouldn't have happened. You're acting as if Miller has had a chance to play with the team that he signed up for. Roy has been hurt. Oden has been hurt. Batum has been hurt. In fact, most of the team has been hurt. Miller is the only guy who has been steady through the whole ordeal.

That's your opinion. Mine differs from yours. Deal with it.

 

[Natebishop3]

That's your opinion. Mine differs from yours. Deal with it.

So you think the team would have made the playoffs in 2009-2010 without Miller? You think the team would have made the playoffs without Miller in 2010-2011? Simple question. Yes or no?

 

[alex42083]

Jay Allen has inside sources to trades? haha. Nice.

 

[PapaG]

Help me out with something, Papa. Has Andre Miller ever won a playoff series? Related question: Did he lead Portland to a playoff series win?

Nope, he's been a playoff failure his entire career. Yet, he'll end up in the top 10 in career assists, barring injury.

Longevity matters more than anything else when assessing a player. I learned that from John Stockton and you, Minstrel.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

It's hard to get too excited. Last year there were rumors that the Blazers were going to trade up, and they did, that eventually landed the team Luke Freaking Babbitt.

Luke. Babbitt.

 

[PapaG]

Does it matter what I think? There is no way to know what would have happened without Miller.

I do know the team won more games without Miller than they won with him, and I do know he got benched for crucial minutes of the two wins against Dallas.

Those are facts.

He's overrated, IMO. Rod Strickland is as well, fwiw.

Would you knock it off!!! Stop going off-topic, we need to focus on how much Jeeeeeeee-yaaaaaaaaay sucks ass, and whether or not he's a bigger douche than he is a fuckstick.

Good point. Sorry for talking about hoops!

You need a better break between "Luke" and "Babbitt."

As such.

Luke ...

Babbitt.

Well your opinion has led you to state that Miller hasn't "made a difference" in Portland and I think helping them get to the playoffs when half the team is injured is the very definition of "making a difference".

Do you think they would have made the playoffs the last two years, yes or no? Don't dodge the question.

Miller gets to to the Playoffs. Unfortunately he also gets you bounced in the 1st round. This franchise needs more than that.

That wasn't the question. Papa seems to think that Miller made no difference in Portland, and I contest that we would have been a lottery team without him. That's the issue.

He made no difference. First round loser without him, first round loser with him.

That's just a fact.

So you won't answer the question. SlyPokerDog is a pussy.

who gives a fuck? why does every thread have to get derailed talking to this douche?

Because SlyPokerDog is a troll, obviously

 

[PapaG]

I did answer the question. Miller has made no difference, IMO. Same results as the season before the Blazers got him, and with fewer wins and lower seeds.

 

[Minstrel]

Nope, he's been a playoff failure his entire career. Yet, he'll end up in the top 10 in career assists, barring injury.

Life's unfair sometimes. Sometimes God rewards completely undeserving cancers with assists.

Well, as long as you learned something from John Stockton. He has a lot to teach.

 

[PapaG]

who gives a fuck? why does every thread have to get derailed talking to this douche?

I was asked a question. I answered it.

How is that trolling?
