TRob: What's your theory?

[JDC]

TRob is putting up solid stats but he's hurting the team when he's on the floor, especially on the defensive end.

http://stats.nba.com/teamPlayers.html?TeamID=1610612757&MeasureType=Advanced&PerMode=PerGame

He gets lost way too often and doesn't hold his position as good as you'd think with the kind of body he has.

I thought Meyers looked better tonight defending the rim. Just wish he had better rebounding instincts.

He didn't play tonight.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

We have been discussing him as a possible asset that could be moved, but it was all conjecture on our part.

His minutes have been so sporadic lately though.

5 against Houston.

19 against Philly.

5 against Detroit.

11 against Houston.

4 against Minnesota.

0 tonight against New Orleans.

Most minutes played in the last 6 games--against Philly. Who does the board want to trade for? Hawes.

Do the math.

I'm not very good at math

My theory is that I like to see people shit their pants after every Blazer win, and that it's typically one of 3 or 4 posters with the instant negative threads.

Or, is that my hypothesis?

WTF are you talking about? How is this a negative thread?

Robinson was a regular in our rotation. He didn't play at all tonight. We're wondering why. Why is everything so black and white to you? It's not "negative" if it's not "positive." This falls squarely in the "inquisitive" realm.

I can't help it. I'm the bowl is half empty kind of dog.

Leonard had 4 rebounds in 10 minutes tonight. Instincts or otherwise, that's production in a close game. I'm happy seeing Meyers be able to play the 4 for a bit, and be able to rebound and defend.

My mistake. Didn't mean to imply that everyone on the board wants him, just that he's the most popular theoretical realistic trade target amongst those discussed.

Apologies.

We are showcasing Leonard

Weren't you the one whining about the bench? Guess what? Stotts made a rotation move, and Leonard had 2 point/4 rebounds/1 block in 10 minutes while being a +1 on the floor. Stotts made a change to the rotation, and suddenly you're questioning the move? If Crabbe had played over Wright, would you have started a thread about Wright being benched?

How am I questioning the move? Your reading comprehension really needs some work G.

I asked why people thought Robinson fell out of rotation tonight. I didn't say it was a bad move, I didn't say it was a good move, I asked why the move was made. Stop having such a knee-jerk reaction to anything that isn't "OMG WE WON THE GAME! WE WON AGAIN! I LOVE DAME! I LOVE LA! I LOVE STOTTS! I LOVE PORTLAND!"

It's a legitimate question. Why didn't Robinson play? Do you know the answer?

I still think my answer was the best. I'm going to email it to Canzano.

I'm with Nate. Not a negative OP at all. The guy didn't play and no one has said why. So Nate asked for people's theories. What's your theory, PapaG?

If that's the case, he looked pretty fucking good tonight.

 

[KingSpeed]

He didn't play tonight.

I think he meant that Leonard looked better tonight than TRob has been recently. What I like about the move is hat moves Freeland to backup PF where he can be even more productive.

Do the math.

you must not remember the starters sitting the whole fourth quarter

I can't complain. He actually played well! All I want is this type of performance

 

[PtldPlatypus]

I remember it perfectly. You must not be able to recognize a clearly facetious post.

 

[PapaG]

Because Leonard moved ahead of the back-up PF who can't defend or shoot, and who has a PER of 14.7 with a usage rate of 23.7?

Robinson simply isn't very good. This is one of the bench moves I'd expect against a team like NO that packs the defense inside. I remember when Nate McMillian was bashed because he never deviated from his rotation on a game by game basis. Stotts did tonight, and it paid off.

Everyone on edge tonight. Must be close to Christmas time

I already posted it, Eric.

I didn't think he looked all that good. He didn't crash the boards all the well. Some of the rebounds bounced right to him. Got pushed out of position. He was better at blocking or altering shots.

ANd THAT is your THEORY. Thank you for contributing.

We were posting at the same time. I didn't see that post when I was writing mine.

Attacking Nate was unnecessary.

That's fine. I'm not opposed to that move. Something had to be done because the bench simply wasn't scoring. I don't know why you automatically think that I'm bashing the move.

That was a lot of legwork for a throwaway post. Just saying...
