this is getting ridiculous. http://blog.oregonlive.com/behindblazersbeat/2010/02/brandon_roy_will_not_play_satu.html
Andre Miller will just have to have another game like he had in Dallas and the Blazers will be able to have Webster and Batum on Kobe all night. If the Lakers are smart they'll just pound the ball inside all night, but there's always a good chance Kobe turns into a ball hog again and have one of his famous 9-31 nights.
I don't expect much from Bayless with a bum ankle and deep thigh bruise; he makes his living by being quicker and stronger than the opposition and without those advantages he's going to really struggle to have any kind of (positive) impact.
Bayless and Miller should not start together! Start Miller with Rudy and let's get some scoring and some energy going from the start - THEN bring in Bayless to relieve one of these two.
Darn. Guess we have almost no chance now against the Lakers. So much for Quick's inane thought that Roy being questionable for this game was possibly a "smokescreen" to fool the Lakers (Quick said this in the Quick Podcast). When Quick said this, I knew that Roy was probably not going to play, since Quick gets it wrong so often.
So what was the point of Roy having that surgery? Wasn't it supposed to speed up the healing process? It's been two weeks now.
kpee "brandon will miss 7-10 days" lmao just like greg a "knee bruise" and would be "fine" 27 days later
I agree. This is a joke. I'd rather they just moved to Seattle, or Baltimore. Get the fuck out of my city!!!!!!!!!!!!
Looks like Bayless will play. I think we should just sit him out to tbh. No real reason to further injury on anything else. You could tell this injury was affecting him in the third quarter during the Spurs game, I think it will have that same affect tonight, but we will see.
