I can't wait to see Kidd run the show.

I fell asleep super early on monday, and didn’t see the miami game because I was asleep.
The highlights of the games have been pretty badass. GO MAVS!!

I hope I'm not the bad luck of the team ...

I haven’t watched the last three games .. only parts of the miami one … If we play bad tonight, I will not watch anymore :P

Right move by Josh

Results in a turnover, though.

I agree

But he’s usually hot in the first quarter, anyway.

I think it was mentioned on DB.com (I think that's where I read it)

That Carlisle has quietly tightened the roster to eight guys.

by Marie on Feb 4, 2009 8:03 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

That's good

It’s looking like the SG starting spot is Wright’s.

by Marie on Feb 4, 2009 8:04 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

are you a fan of wright

i kinda expected more, he seems older then he really is.

by mrichardson70 on Feb 4, 2009 8:06 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

I don't have a valid opinion of him right now

He’s pretty active, which is great, and is not bad on defense. Would you rather Gerald Green start at that spot? Or George?

by Marie on Feb 4, 2009 8:08 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

no i think your right (with wright)

i think it is just a weak position for us.

by mrichardson70 on Feb 4, 2009 8:09 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

I think from a starting position

Dampier fills his position better then Wright does at SG. Problem is that there really isn’t a back up center right now and Terry as the 6th man is clearly a front runner for 6th man of the year. Toss up I guess!

Trust issues, to be more accurate. There was an incident in which Roy (?) forgot to invite him to a team dinner or something, and then LMA didn’t speak to Roy for a while.

by Marie on Feb 4, 2009 8:47 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

yeah

That story on ESPN was the first I’d heard of it. Aldridge is apparently a bit of a loner, hesitant to put trust in anyone.

I really like Aldridge the kid, I just really dislike his game. He’s a bad defensive rebounder, a below average defender, doesn’t draw fouls and relys on jumpers way to much (that’s ok if you are a great shooter like Dirk, but not if you are a merely pretty good shooter like Aldridge). Aldridge is an above average player, but not the star most Blazer fans think he is.

Well

good game guys. I didn’t think the reffing was great, especially the clear path foul, but it happens. It wasn’t terrible to the point that it cost the Blazers the game.

good luck… we might meet in the playoffs. Who knows.

by Cablinasian on Feb 4, 2009 10:03 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

oh, definitely

I loved seeing Bayless, Outlaw, Roy, and Rudy fighting to the last second. There are a lot of teams that would have thrown in the towel down 11 with only a minute left. Road wins are very difficult against good teams, and we came close.

We only needed a split of DAL/NO, now we just need to take OKC down on Friday for the winning trip.

the Blazers just do not matchup well with Dallas.

we miss Steve Blake an awful lot

I dunno who we can beat right now.

by Cablinasian on Feb 4, 2009 10:10 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

our entire offense is predicated off the two man game with Roy and the point guard

who sits in the corner waiting for the pass. WIthout that, the defenders can help onto Roy, no problem.

by Cablinasian on Feb 4, 2009 10:13 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

And Roy can't do it all

Good bench production tonight, though.

by Marie on Feb 4, 2009 10:14 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

yeah...

Bayless is coming along… he’s played the equivalent of nine full games at this point. He just makes too many rookie mistakes. Blake is steady and hits the three, something we need in a bad way right now.

No excuses though. We lost this game, flat out.

by Cablinasian on Feb 4, 2009 10:16 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

No one to play defense against the point against the quick guards

although I’m not sure anyone is worse than Sergio. Bayless’ D is alright, but he makes rookie mistakes constantly.

I guess it’s a viable option… I tend to think Pritchard is showcasing Sergio.

by Cablinasian on Feb 4, 2009 10:19 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

I thought I heard/read that he's on the block

I must ask, though, when Oden will be consistent. His numbers tonight were not great. I liked it better when Przybilla started instead.

by Marie on Feb 4, 2009 10:21 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Actually the biggest problem with Blake being out

is that he is the one guard on the team who knows how to feed the post. Oden is ridiculously efficient once he gets the ball in position, but no one can get it to him…

by Cablinasian on Feb 4, 2009 10:22 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

That's sad

How long is Blake out? Will he be back before the All-Star break?

by Marie on Feb 4, 2009 10:24 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

hopefully his shooting remains good

a separated shoulder can mess with a player’s form.

by Cablinasian on Feb 4, 2009 10:24 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Great

That’s reassuring, since that’s also Jameer Nelson’s injury…

by Marie on Feb 4, 2009 10:26 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Didn't he hurt his labrum?

I think Blake’s is much less severe. It was the lowest grade of shoulder separation.

by Cablinasian on Feb 4, 2009 10:27 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Yeah

The thought of him being replaced at the ASG sickens me, not to mention how this injury will affect the Magic the rest of the season.

by Marie on Feb 4, 2009 10:28 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

they were doing so well

and it all goes down the tubes… it really is sad.

by Cablinasian on Feb 4, 2009 10:30 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Jameer tore his

muscle off the bone.

Blake just dislocated his shoulder. Then he came back a couple games too early and reinjured it. But it is not serious like Nelson’s.

by Sabonis4Ever on Feb 4, 2009 10:27 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Same injury as Raef

Don’t want to scare Magic fans, but that could take some months of time to heal and ultimately he will need the surgery.

by Norsktroll on Feb 4, 2009 10:31 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

I honestly thought Jameer decided on the surgery

But now I’m hearing that he’s just doing the rehab, so I don’t know what’s going on.

by Marie on Feb 4, 2009 10:33 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Raef did that all summer, but in the end it didn't work

Jameer is younger, but no surgery leaves the shoulder very susceptible to re-injury. One big pick or grab of the arm could dislocate it again.

by Norsktroll on Feb 4, 2009 10:36 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Understandable

You guys don’t call him a bust over at BE, do you?

...

What do you think?

Karma

by Sabonis4Ever on Feb 4, 2009 10:24 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Well....I would question anybody who calls him a bust after 40 games

When he has not played for a year and a half before that, and coming off microfracture surgery. We see flashes of greatness. His biggest problem is foul trouble and inconsistency. And we run 0 plays for him and force him to guard guards on the pick and roll.

Karma

by Sabonis4Ever on Feb 4, 2009 10:30 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

It's more on the point guards

he is 280 pounds. He can’t guard Chris Paul one on one.

by Cablinasian on Feb 4, 2009 10:32 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

That's what is so frustrating

Oden in foul trouble isn’t surprising when he’s let down by his perimeter defense constantly.

by Cablinasian on Feb 4, 2009 10:35 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

At least he's not playing tentatively

Like he’s afraid to get hurt again. I haven’t seen enough Blazers games to know this, but is he easily intimidated by the other bigs in the game (like Garnett, Duncan, etc.)?

by Marie on Feb 4, 2009 10:38 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

The best thing about this year

is that he takes no crap from anybody. He stood up to KG really well… I think it was Ric Bucher that remarked he was incredibly impressed by Oden not giving anyone an inch.

He also gave Ray Allen a hard foul that swung the game… i’ve been more than happy with that part of his game.

by Cablinasian on Feb 4, 2009 10:39 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

That's good

As long as he’s not dirty or a jerk. He seems like a cool guy off the court.

by Marie on Feb 4, 2009 10:42 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Nah, he's a super nice guy.

Does a lot in the community that goes unreported… he has said that he loves games where opposing centers want to get physical down low. It’s not that he’s dirty, he just loves a good physical battle.

by Cablinasian on Feb 4, 2009 10:44 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

The opposition has no effect on him

The only thing holding him back is fouls, and his full athleticism has not returned yet. And we run no plays for him.

by Sabonis4Ever on Feb 4, 2009 10:41 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

A question, just wondering if someone saw it differently

when Dirk was fouled by Bayless in the closing seconds, the clock was at 7.7 seconds. When he missed the free throw, it was 7.0 seconds. If it was a whistle before the inbounds, how did time disappear?
