    BGrantFan wants the guy who is 0-4 to shoot more while terribly upset with the guy who has 13 on 7 shot attempts. Get the fuck out of here.

    I don't think it's reasonable for everyone to question the talent or capabilities of a player or the team based on less than one half of basketball.

    The Lakers are really good, and Portland is playing like crap. It doesn't mean that the team needs to be disassembled or that Miller is no longer a PG or that Roy is washed up.

    Roy just clanked another open shot off a Miller pass.

    Why is Aldridge camped out at the 3-point line in the corner?

    Lasoftie shooting threes while letting Gasol nearly get a triple double in the first half.

    God, we suck.

    There's really no point in playing the starters big minutes in this game.

    You have GOT to be kidding me. Miller would have 6 assists if Roy was hitting the open shots he has gotten for Roy.

    Don't get in the way of all the crazies making themselves look like idiots for over-reacting and doing whatever it takes to try and prove how terrible some of the best players on the team are.

    Everyone on this team is terrible at rebounding.

    Just adding Greg and Joel isn't going to fix the issues in this "offense." It will cover some of the warts, but it will still be terrible against solid opposing defenses.

    Have to agree here... Andre would have the assists if the guys were making shots. But ... they aren't.

    Fisher and Blake have both outplayed Miller tonight. Get the fuck out of here.

    Or maybe the guys would be making their shots if Andre's passes weren't off.

    Ugly first half. It's tempting to shut it off and watch Dexter instead.

    I'm not kidding you. Miller is a fucking sieve on defense, and he isn't getting our best player the ball in his scoring zone. This is 2nd half of OKC 'Dre.

    I have to agree with this.

    It WILL improve the pathetic rebounding though. Geez.

    It's not on a half, nor is it on just this season. It's an odd fix from the get-go. Some of it is (I think) Roy's unwillingness to play with Andre, and some of it is the easily defend-able offense.
