She's everyone's dream gal.

FTFY

 

[Trackjack]

Came back out the time out and got refocus good job.

 

[KingSpeed]

Meanwhile last week, OKC, with their stars, could barely beat Melbourne!

Go Blazers!!!

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

The point still stands though, that we're awful at throwing lobs, and many of our players would benefit if we could.

Why couldn't Turner be kind of an Andre Miller player, and be good at those short lobs? If he could do that he would be a lot more valuable.

 

[DUB]

3-Quarter Time
Us - 104
Them - 70

Ast:FGM
Us - 21:34
Them - 8:28

We won the 1st by 20, the 2nd by 9, and the 3rd by 5.

Tuned in to a stream of the third quarter....holy garbage. Glad I sold my tickets for tonight.

Before the injury, Turner was starting and he was getting lobs to Plumlee. It was going really well. Then the trade happened. Then Turner came back to a new team and never got it going again. Give him time. If he can do it with Plumlee, he can do it with Nurk.

You don't like watching your team crush it?

 

[Darkwebs]

Jake snakes into the lane for the tear drop! And one!

Maybe this highlights the quality of the Australian National Basketball League, compared to the Israeli league?

I wonder if any of our European posters can enlighten us?

I had no one to go with because my ticket partner didn't feel like going and I found no substitute.

 

[ripcityboy]

Goodwin on fire.

 

[HailBlazers]

Z for three!!!

 

[DUB]

I'm loving Collins' range tonight.

Maccabi Tel Aviv is usually pretty damn legit in EuroBasket.

 

[BrianFromWA]

so if we put Turner posting up down low, and Collins and Meyers up top shooting 3's , and Ed in there to collect the bricks, is that considered "inside out" basketball?

Asking for a friend...

 

[DUB]

They played the "Blazers Horns" on the radio feed, and I started patting my pockets, trying to find my phone.

 

[KingSpeed]

Connaughton > Crabbe

And hapoel Jerusalem seemed ok on my last trip, I believe Amar'e stoudmire plays for them

 

[Darkwebs]

Connaughton > Crabbe

If so, that would be ironic because we got Pat from the Nets and the Nets got Crabbe from us.

One of my favorite things to do is go to look at FIBA random basketball rosters and go "Ohhhhh, I remember that guy. He used to play for Sisters of The Poor. Got kicked out for the thing with that goat."

 

[Darkwebs]

If so, that would be ironic because we got Pat from the Nets and the Nets got Crabbes from us.

 

[theprunetang]

Pat has actually had a good preseason. Prune is probably doing the "Told Ya So" dance.

Damned straight. Dance magic dance.

 

[illmatic99]

zach has great form on his three

 

[ripcityboy]

Opening against Phoenix, Ohhh Joy.

 

[Scalma]

Automatic three point shooters, nah.

Guys that can shoot open threes, but can't actually have plays run for them? Yeah. Morrow was one of them.

 

[Darkwebs]

Opening against Phoenix, Ohhh Joy.

Seems like we always have a season opener, or a home opener against them.

I know. They always seem to have a good performance against us as well. Booker went off last year.
