Wallace is Man

Sounds like you're criticizing McMillan then

If you read the game thread, I was, in part.

 

[VanillaGorilla]

I've never said either of those things, even once. Care to link to those posts, mod? Or are you just making up shit?

Meh. I don't want to look them up but I could swear you've said things along those lines. Even if you haven't, recently you have been complaining about the forum a lot. I really don't care if you are outraged at me saying something that's not perfectly true. I'd still like you to answer the questions I posed, but if you don't I won't care.

I didn't, but I was able to still put 2 and 2 together. Sounds like you place the blame on McMillan for this loss for going to Wallace too much(although Wallace did answer the call).

I get where you're coming from, but between Aldridge floating around on the perimeter and no one else making a shot McMillan had to go to with the guy that was getting the job done.

Personally, I just think OKC is a better team. They're deeper and they have 2 stars to the Blazers' 0.

In other words, you're making things up I don't want to leave this forum, and I never said anything about a migration other than there appeared to be one, which Mediocre Man confirmed. Where they migrated to, I really don't know, but if you want to be a mod, you should actually get your facts straight before calling out your consistent posters. And yes, I did just answer your ridiculous questions.

Which resulted in a 9 point loss.

So you're blaming Wallace for the loss?

Ah, now we're reaching a synthesis. The known facts are

1. Wallace had a hot game.

2. We lost and it wasn't very close.

3. He got no assists. His teammates were left out of the game.


The possible causes are

1. Wallace made his teammates suck by selfishly going ISO. Damn him.

2. Praise Wallace, but criticize his teammates. By coincidence, they all sucked at once.

3. Everyone tried, but some central force didn't coordinate it together. The Coach.

 

[THE HCP]

Damn! I thought this kinda shit was going to stop!

 

[C_note]

So you're blaming Wallace for the loss?

Yah, apparently he made too many shots. He should've passed it more.

 

[PapaG]

I never said that. Let's see here though, last time i checked Wallace is a SF/PF hustle player. It was 28 shots, and he shot over 50%.
I guess if you were coach, whenever a player got on fire you would say "ENOUGH OF THIS SHIT, PASS THE BALL TO YOUR FAILING TEAMMATES".
He had 0 turnovers and was the ONLY REASON that game was even close...

Really?

Maybe me opinion is off-base , or maybe it isn't, but you did say I posted "similar fail posts and trolling..."

I'm not trolling. I think MIller and Wallace dominated the ball tonight, and the result was a loss.

BUMP

As a college student, I'd hope that you wouldn't make leaps in logic.

What I gather from this is that you do want to keep being a consistent poster on this forum. I realize there are things about it you don't like, but does all the criticizing help? I'm adding to it right now, but it seems to just start more off topic arguing.

I'm a mod of a forum with no active posters. If I ever became a mod here I would definitely be better about the "making stuff up" thing, but right now I'm not too worried about it. Sorry if I misrepresenting your opinions on the topic.

 

[RoyToy]

So you're blaming Wallace for the loss?

He already said McMillan.

I'm not sure if I would agree with that, but I'll just add that Miller didn't help at all. 13 shots is too many for him, especially when he's struggling.

Well I don't think you are trolling...just fail posts. I was talking about MIXUM.

I said McMillan and Miller in the game thread. The Wallace thread was more for historical perspective, yet it makes me a 'MIXUM' to the busybodies.

Why is it relevant whether he wants to post here? Do we all have to take a loyalty oath now?

While posting a lot, I may start saying I don't want to post here, just to confuse you and give you a headache.

 

[C_note]

On a side note, I noticed Luis Scola had 28 points, 5 rebounds and 1 assist on 23 shots tonight and his team lost by 6 points.

This has happened only 4 times in the last 26 years.

 

[maxiep]

So, does this mean I'm a troll? Wallace taking 27 shots with 0 assists, in a 9 point loss, is a fact. If that is ban-worthy, I guess I'm on the wrong board. As I've said repeatedly, many of you just need a target. I think it's because you lack the fortitude to offer your own opinions.

I'm impressed. How do you nail yourself to a cross? I can see how you'd get the first hand, but the second and the feet?

 

[maxiep]

If you had to rank the reasons why we lost, Gerald Wallace would be at the bottom of the list. Thanks, Crash for a hell of a game!

Classic. You nailed it. Harhar, get it?

I'll see if I can rep you some more (probably not).

 

[yenniedn]

because you've assumed the role of mixum. just ask them to change your name to it.

Do you honestly think we're too stupid to see it?

MIXUM posted negative threads after wins. When did I do this?

You're part of the problem, and bringing MIXUM into this illustrates your own needs, not mine. Some of you weaklings need a target, as I posted in the MIXUM thread.

You're giving PapaG too much credit. Between the two, he's clearly the lesser of two evils and much more tolerable. Y'all know what he does but, to his credit, at least he doesn't make BS posts or threads then sits silently at his computer and fap, fap, faps away with his Jergens like Mixum did. To a fault, he'll stay in the thread to argue his point and address anyone/everyone that cares to reply - he certainly doesn't run from any interwebs forum fights. Some of his arguments can be fairly well thought out and dare I say convincing. However, it'd be a lot easier to take him seriously if he didn't make it a point to argue with just about everyone about seemingly everything.

And if you don't want to get tied up in an argument with Papa, don't post between the hours of 11pm to 2am, everyone knows that's when he patrols (one "L") this forum. PapaG owns the night.

 

[mercykersey]

Wallace was a complete stud, drawing 7 thunder offensive fouls, blocking shots, driving to the basket,outside shots, scoring at will, he showed big time heart. I loved what i saw from gerald! He was the reason the game was within 2 when he stripped durant and durant flailed and they called it a foul. The call was bullshit and i felt the team sort of new it was bullshit NBA star fucker calls. We didnt get a good call the rest of the way and the lead ended up being 9. This game was neck and neck and the blazers deserved to win with most of the blazers sucking and 1 guy playing awesome. Thats how i saw it. So Pumped to have Gerald on our team!!!

Gerald Wallace is MAN

 

[HailBlazers]

Amen Brotha. Insinuating anything else for three pages is kinda crazy.

At the top of my list would be getting LMA the ball, it seems we forgot him once again. Even if Crash is on fire, dropping it in the post first is always a great way to get the defense off balance, then you can cut, slash, or swing the ball. The lack of ball movement until late in the clock was ugly and very frustrating.

 

[blazerboy30]

Right on schedule... another night of Papag on the prowl, looking for an argument.

oh yeah...


With respect to the topic:
Wallace played an amazing game. It is pretty lame to criticize him for taking too many shots when he shot 57%.

That said, I don't think we should be running an offense where Wallace is coming off screens and shooting 20 footers. That just isn't his game.

 

[Shooter]

40 points/0 assists

People used to bitch about Roy being a black hole...

Maybe it's a good thing Wallace DIDN'T pass the ball. No one else except him could hit a shot. If he'd been passing, we probably would have lost by even more.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Agreed; 0 assists is more a symptom of his teammates' play, and not his. Guys who make a living off assists see their stats suffer if their teammates can't hit the broadside of a barn.

 

[Shooter]

Really though, are we all supposed to be celebrating a 9-point loss to OKC?

No one's celebrating, that I can tell, but it's worth pointing out that OKC has a better record than we do, and just might be a better team.

 

[andalusian]

I'm impressed. How do you nail yourself to a cross? I can see how you'd get the first hand, but the second and the feet?

It's called Prep-work. You set a bunch of nail guns on an opposite cross, triggered by a cord, get in position and pull. Have you never watched Mythbusters?
