I like Adande. He seems to be pretty solid.

Definitely.

 

[BonesJones]

great. done.

Thank god.

 

[BonesJones]

Lol, the angry actor guy put me on ignore because he cant stop arguing everything I say. Funny.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

I find that PG seems to attack Aminu way more than Harkless. When he see’s Aminu he always puts the ball on the floor and goes after him, seems like with Harkless he is more hesitant to try to take him 1v1. Am I dreaming that? Has anyone else noticed it?

Yes I have noticed that too

Here's a controversial question for game 4....should we actually start Meyers and bring Enes off the bench...let Meyers get the early fouls?

I like this idea.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

I like this idea.

I do too, also none of their bench bigs could stop Enes, so if he’s playing 6th man role he helps our bench be able to score.

 

[THE HCP]

Good point. I'm considering putting you on ignore. That would solve that. It would make this forum much more pleasant for me. You're the only guy I have a problem with.

King, it's not fair to you as a valued vet of this forum to not feel comfortable with how you are being treated here. I can safely speak for others when saying, you should do whatever you need to do to make your time spent here more enjoyable.

Nap time!

Nap time!

You ain't jokin! Left after 5th inning. Had to get back to the hotel to watch this Jazz/Rockets game!

 

[riverman]

Well he says he's okay. We'll see what happens. I love Meyers though and won't complain about him playing. I feel like we need to get him more shots when he's out there though.

I think Meyers has a better chance of getting Adams saddled with early fouls than Enes does...Adams is getting all the calls against Enes...if it happens against Meyers at least you have Enes for the end stretch

If the team comes out lethargic tomorrow, this is why.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzx

@yuyuza1 @JDC Broke down the highlights, and I honestly still dont think Stotts made many adjustments to their offense. Video coming soon.

 

[BonesJones]

Thank you

And to think, I've stood up for this actor guy against TV Truck guy before.

 

[THE HCP]

And now he can't see YOUR posts...... oh how the tides have turned.

[Propagandist]

If we had Nurk we would shit on this team so hard

I've not heard that word arrangement before, and I really like it.

 

[kjironman1]

Yes I have noticed that too

Harkless has been playing stellar defense. No question.

 

[BonesJones]

And now I respect you more than him.

WTF is happening?

 

[BonesJones]

Harkless has been playing stellar defense. No question.

He has been most of the time, but he also had a couple of very bad defensive plays in the 3rd quarter last night though. And very bad as in "Seriously? What the hell are you doing?"

 

[oldmangrouch]

Winner of this game wins the series?

I still think this game turns on the officiating...which is bad for the Blazers.

 

[oldmangrouch]

Does this have something to do with that 1-on-1 challenge?

Look bones. I understand you think you know all about everything on every game but just for a second try to look at things from another perspective.
Harkless has made huge plays this series. He has drawn one of the toughest assignments in the Playoffs on any team. If you want to try and look at two or three times in one game that he either got turned around or was not in the right position then that's the way you want to see it. Picking a guy apart for a couple mental lapses does not make you look smart or like some basketball guru.
Bottom line Maurice Harkless has been just what this team has needed to this point in this series. I stand by my statement. Harkless has been playing stellar defense no question.

I dont think Bones was saying he hasnt played stellar defense, and been very good this series. He’s just pointing out there have been some bad plays too. Moe did give up a 4 point play to george because he almost acted surprised they passed it to him and wasnt attached (or even close), he’s missed a rotation or two as well.

Harkless has still played very good defense and had an overall good series (especially on defense).

 

[BonesJones]

Does this have something to do with that 1-on-1 challenge?

Nope. Has everything to do with the dude arguing with every post I've made in the last 10 days (Including an unprovoked attack that started with him telling me to "fuck off" - then he ironically tryies to tell me nobody cares what I have to say - so I ask him why he argues with me so much, so he says "you're right, I should ignore you" - He ignores me - TV truck guy (who's talked shit about actor guy for years and who I've defended actor guy against) butts in and actor guy goes along with it.

That's why I have no respect for actor guy anymore.
