Jazz @ Blazers - GAME THREAD

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Thanks Roy...

For saving our last possession?

 

[Weav]

We're drawing offensive fouls quite well tonight

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

And for that 3?

 

[EGame]

For saving our last possession?

No. Thanks for playing though.

 

[Weav]

let's see if Camby can get more than ten minutes this half

 

[Darkwebs]

Great and-one by Aldridge.

 

[Weav]

Aldridge aggressive tonight...I'm loving it

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

No. Thanks for playing though.

While I don't think he should be in there, I'm still seeing more positive in his performance than negative.

As I say that, Camby is all that he camby.

 

[Weav]

Camby is starting the block party!

 

[EGame]

CAMBY!

 

[Darkwebs]

Camby with 2 blocks in the last minute. Nice!

Seriously.... I still love how some people said the season was over if we didn't beat Phoenix in that last game before the ASG. While that one game could have hurt, I don't see how it would have ended our season. We just needed to keep grinding, and if Roy is going to continue to play, work him back into things slowly (Just fucking sit him already). I think we should be fine. I'd like to see us make a push for the 7 seed, but there's a lot of games left for us to work up to that.

For me, I'm not even focused on the Playoffs. The team just isn't playing consistent high-level ball yet. I want, and I know they will, to get some steam built up before the climb, you know?

Integrating Camby is one step and I think we're seeing the beginnings of that already! Go Blazers!!!

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Where's Blake when we really need him?

 

[craigehlo]

Finally seeing the real Camby.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Should be about time for Nate to take Camby out, isn't it?

 

[EGame]

Nice by Roy.

 

[Crimson the Cat]

Thanks Roy...

And again!!! Maybe the hammy isn't hurting so bad ...

 

[Darkwebs]

Some vintage Roy with the and-one. Strong move

I agree. That's what we're doing now, and I think we'll hit some sort of stride as we approach the playoffs. Is it the level we want them to be at? Given the injuries, probably not. But I think we'll be moving and ready to compete (barring any more injuries).

Roy and-one!!

 

[Weav]

Nice drive by Aldridge

 

[craigehlo]

GREAT move by LMA to get fouled.

 

[Mediocre Man]

I love that Aldridge is nutting it up and taking it inside. He is flat out an allstar player when he does that.

 

[Weav]

We're not normally a good third quarter team, hopefuly we can still lead by twenty going into the fourth

 

[Darkwebs]

25 point lead. Domination

 

[Crimson the Cat]

Didn't Hollinger pan Batum with his statistical rating of sorts before last year's draft?

Yep, but his stat system for analyzing Euros hasn't yet translated as well as it has in the NBA and college. Plus, Batum's game, at that point, wasn't one that would show up as a positive in his system.

 

[Weav]

I love Greg, but he would have fouled on that last Jazz dunk

 

[EGame]

Camby is putrid on offense. Oh and Miller. STOP SHOOTING 3'S, you suck hard at them.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Yep, but his stat system for analyzing Euros hasn't yet translated as well as it has in the NBA and college. Plus, Batum's game, at that point, wasn't one that would show up as a positive in his system.

Yeah, but I think he had some additional comments to his ratings where he panned Batum.

 

[Weav]

Andre's shot arch looks like a clothesline

 

[bobf]

Damn Camby is good
