SUNS @ BLAZERS -- GAME THREAD

[julius]

haha.. Phoenix announcer thought Tolliver was Webster.. geez

Well, they all look alike, you know. Reggie and Cheryl Miller for proof.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Kudos also to the Phoenix announcer. He hasn't been at all homerish.

 

[OSUBlazerfan]

Roy cant make a fucking layup fuck me

 

[MARIS61]

Call me a "hater" all you want, but I don't see anyone (but Maris) jumping to support your claim that Blake is a great lob passer. Miller, however, is renowned for that particular skill. As usual, I'll trust the experts over your undocumented claim. Thanks for your opinion, though.

First of all, I guarantee there are no "experts" posting on this board.

Second, most posters here don't even understand the basics of the game.

Third, renowned would imply everybody heard about it, and I have never heard anyone mention Miller as a great lob passer, or even a great passer, until here when we got him. His driving and scoring has always been the thing they mention about Miller.

From observation this season I'd say Blake's a better and more accutate passer all around than Miller or Bayless, or Roy.

 

[FeloniusThunk]

Ugh, blown layups are not supposed to lead to 3-on-1 fast breaks. Good feed from Juwan after, though.

 

[B-Roy]

Roy is so bad on the fastbreak, it's not even funny.

Actually, Miller did throw the most alley oop passes last year, I believe.

Not this year though.

 

[RoyToy]

Roy missing Fts this year is so freaking annoying. They're supposed to be FREE for crying out loud, fucking make them.

 

[OSUBlazerfan]

Webster is a piece of shit omg...how could someone regress so much

 

[alex42083]

Martell..... geez. Just shoot it.

 

[RoyToy]

SERIOUSLY WEBSTER? SERIOUSLY?

 

[Nikolokolus]

Roy is so bad on the fastbreak, it's not even funny.

He's looked pretty lethargic out there, especially on D.

 

[FeloniusThunk]

Martell! He is playing. Who knew?

 

[santeesioux]

God damn Frye, why couldn't he have been even slightly consistent here?

 

[julius]

So...when are we going to understand to defend shooters?

 

[alex42083]

Frye killing us... on both ends of the floor.

 

[Darkwebs]

Frye is killing us with 3s and then draws a charge against LMA. Why didn't he play this well when he was here?

 

[Mediocre Man]

God damn Frye, why couldn't he have been even slightly consistent here?

When he got consistent minutes, he was consistent

 

[B-Roy]

You would think that they would stay on Frye after he makes a few shots, but NOOO, give him all the room he needs.

 

[julius]

When he got consistent minutes, he was consistent

When Steve Blake gets consistent minutes, he's consistent too.

Consistently bad.

Didn't get consistent playing time. And who really knows who is good and who sucks in McMillan's system. He relegates most point guards to simply handing the ball off to Brandon Roy.

 

[MARIS61]

God damn Frye, why couldn't he have been even slightly consistent here?

We don't run.

 

[RoyToy]

Frye just works in a gimmick offense where he doesn't have to be tough. They won't win a championship with him there.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Just imagine for a second if we didn't have Jerryd?

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

You clearly don't watch the games.

One, it was a joke. Lighten up.

Two, it's clearly you who doesn't watch the games, or you wouldn't be all up in Blake's undercarriage.

 

[julius]

I like how Channing still considers Portland "home".

 

[B-Roy]

Steve Blake is so good at setting up teammates, that he has 0 assists in 17 minutes.

 

[MARIS61]

Frye even talks fast.

 

[julius]

Just imagine for a second if we didn't have Jerryd?

I just threw up a little in my mouth.

 

[Darkwebs]

Down 7 at the half, 48-55. We're going to need to do a better job of hitting the boards. And Roy needs to step his game up if we're gonna have a chance.
