Lillard updates

[KingSpeed]

Trail Blazers' Damian Lillard reportedly day-to-day, will miss Thursday's game vs Rockets

Well there we go. If we can get Dame and Ed back for Saturday's game, that would be good. Now the team should play loose in Houston and try to steal one there. Houston is overrated.

How will I be able to see if Dame is OK if I can't see this thread?

Just ask your wife, there are forum members who can see this thread who also regularly keep Mrs. HCP filled in, or so I've heard...

They barely beat Suns.

Don't you ever get tired of this game you play? Get worn out just reading it.......

 

[Strenuus]

We barely beat the suns.

So we're overrated, too. :MARIS61:

Sometimes, I don't fault @BonesJones for arguing with him. If he didn't have me on ignore, I'd probably belittle him too.

Exactly. Rockets are no better than us.

Huh???????I think they are like 14 games better than us????

King, You know I love you man. Your optimism is unlike anyone else around here and I'm a firm believer that positivity is needed to maintain a high confidence.
With that said, i'm not sure I've ever agreed more with @HCP with the statement below.

If you are serious about having a platform to go public and discuss the Blazers, you should be honest and real, and this simply is not either of those.
I would be really dissappointed to tune in to see you tossing out statements on the air like you do here. We would quickly become thought of as the most off base fan base ever and become a laughing stock among other fanbases.

And I say this with love my friend.... Get real!

Well, that's a spin.

I envision that you make a flow chart after every response you make and then if someone says this, you use that response.

It's fantastic!

C'mon @HCP, wouldn't it be hilarious to see him say stuff like this on live TV?

I'm sure there's reasons they keep you in the truck too.

Wait. So to read that right, the member of the forum member varies from member to member?

That makes sense.

I agree with this.. Gotta have substance to back up everything you say as an analyst/TV show host. You have to be unbiasedly objective.

ohhh snap. How did I not think of that one?

And I've already had a platform, Orion. I've written for Oregonlive.com and NBA.com and no one ever had a problem with my takes.

Not to mention that you talk for a living (as do I).

 

[BonesJones]

When talking to Kingspeed in person, the dude was much more objective. @HCP you have your forum shtick, as I don't believe you're an asshole in person from the time I did get to meet you (sorry). So why are you gonna take someones stuff from the forum and pledge to deny them a cool experience in real life? Even if that's a joke, it's petty.

That begs the question...why do people feel the need to have a forum shtick? Are they that unhappy with their true selves that they overlook how disliked said personas are?

See it's statements like that where people lose faith in you. Your whole comment was just fine until that last little jab about the best team in the league being overrated. That team has played well and they were better all over the court when they played here.
