Wiz @ Portland, 02/14/12 - The Valentine's Day Massacre Game Thread!

[jaspitzer]

I'm in class, any update on Aldridge?

 

[julius]

Failton still sucks I see.

the worst thing about Felton being crap is that no other teams would want him.

however, he is an ending contract, so that provides two positives.

1. He probably wouldn't be re-signed
2. He might get traded for a bad contract

wait, I guess there's only 1 good thing.

 

[Darkwebs]

It'd better count. We need any free points now without LMA

 

[julius]

injury or not, there is no reason why this team isn't beating the Wizards by double digits.

This is a team that has won 2 games on the road, for fucks sake. I hate the teams slow starts (and shitty finishes in close games).

 

[Sheldon Shape]

Nic has been our best player and Nate has egg on his face, so he takes him out, and the Wiz go on a run. It's like Nate doesn't want to see Nic succeed in teh same way he didn't want Andre Miller to succeed. What a shitty coach...

 

[RoyToy]

He still played 10min in the 1st Q

Let's not act like Nate sat him after 6

Wiz beat OKC

No he doesn't. He's only 0-2.

 

[RoyToy]

The Blazers are also getting ready to play a b2b2b

Don't need players racking up big minutes in game 1 if you can avoid it

This is the first of 3 straight games. He's not going to play him 48 minutes.

 

[RoyToy]

Nic now on pace to play over to play almost 40 minutes

Damn you Nate!!!

 

[MickZagger]

Smart move Nate.

 

[Sheldon Shape]

This is the first of 3 straight games. He's not going to play him 48 minutes.

So, he's been under-played all season and I'm supposed to believe that Nate is trying to keep him fresh for future games? Not buying it. Not one bit.

 

[B-Roy]

The level of scrubbery of Nolan Smith is off the charts.

 

[julius]

Wiz beat OKC

the statue of limitations on that little factoid died when the Blazers lost to Detroit.

 

[Darkwebs]

The level of scrubbery of Nolan Smith is off the charts.

He learned from the best at that in Felton.

 

[Sheldon Shape]

The level of scrubbery of Nolan Smith is off the charts.

Yeah, he's pretty worthless out there. I think Armon would be better.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

The level of scrubbery of Nolan Smith is off the charts.

I'll cut him some rookie slack.

 

[MickZagger]

Nic now on pace to play over to play almost 40 minutes

Damn you Nate!!!

Thats about right. He's currently the best active Blazer. He needs 40 minutes a night.

 

[Nikolokolus]

I'll cut him some rookie slack.

I'd just cut him

 

[Darkwebs]

I'd just cut him

But what if he can pull a Jeremy Lin?

 

[VenomXL]

I'm officially tired of watching this team.

 

[RoyToy]

Nic turns down open shot, travels

Ugh

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

I'd just cut him

HA!

We're dealing here with our own rookie, so I'm cutting him some slack while he learns NBA ball.

 

[Sheldon Shape]

LOL @ our deficit. McMillan is a lot like Obama in that regard. Everyone likes him, but he hasn't delivered anything substantive in all of his career.

 

[B-Roy]

I really laugh at the people who say Felton plays defense...

 

[RoyToy]

This has to be a terrible game to be at as a fan right now

 

[Nikolokolus]

Kudos to Slypokerdog for the thread title

 

[magnifier661]

What's the score fellas? Coming back from dinner.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

When a bad team is kicking your ass at your place it sure makes for a long night.
