    What does that even mean?

    He had a frickin great assist tonight where he drove to the hole, was trapped by like three Kings, and was still able to pass the ball to someone in the corner for three. Frye, I think?

    That third quarter run was an 18-5 run over 5 minutes. Travis had 7 points during that run.

    Worst player on the team by far.


    Absolutely kills our offense on every possession that isn't a fast break

    It means that it has been posted for 5 years now, so it must be true. His low basketball IQ is clearly why Nate trusts only Outlaw or Roy with the ball at the end of the game, and his low basketball IQ is clearly why Nate has either Outlaw or Roy defend the key offensive perimeter players at the end of close games.

    He has a low basketball IQ! :NOTMARIS:

    Travis was HUGE tonight. Roy had it going but he desperately needed someone to help out so Travis took the ball and took OVER. He was phenomenal tonight. Let's not forget what he did tonight. Roy wouldn't have been able to do it alone.

    Some posters are complaining about Outlaw's performance tonight in another thread. It is absurd.

    Re: Travis Outlaw Fan Club Thread

    It was nice to see Travis get back on track tonight. He did what he does best, and just score the ball and we need that from our bench. I don't want to see him try to set people up, or drive all the way to the hoop.

    Take that money one-dribble jumper, or he even had a nice finger roll tonight. He doesn't need to take it all the way to the rim and jam it. Hopefully this jumpstarts Travis. He showed a ton of emotion out there tonight, I loved it.

    Re: Travis Outlaw Fan Club Thread

    Travis played well tonight. It warmed my heart to see a sequence in the 2nd quarter (iirc) where PHX put up a shot and Ike, Joel and Travis were bouncing off each other for the rebound.

    Let's look at what he did that I really liked.

    1) He attacked the boards.
    2) He attacked the rim (had that nice finger roll)
    3) He spotted up in the corners, took it when open (doesn't matter much to me if it goes in or not, that's a good shot for he and Rudy)
    4) When needed, he took that one-dribble jumpshot. And it was going in tonight (when it's not, there are better ways to get points, but ok for tonight)

    If Travis brought this every night, you would hear much less from me about trades, fit, etc. Good game by him tonight.

    Travis was great tonight, no crazy ass shots, great hustle on the boards, took it inside with some authority.


    The kind of game I've been waiting for awhile to see him have. :clap::clap::clap::cheers:

    Re: Travis Outlaw Fan Club Thread

    There is something that just isn't right with Travis this year. I don't know what it is, but I can't put my finger on it. He was not this much of a liability on defense last year. For some reason, Travis can not seem to stick with his man. His rebounding is just as good thsi year, and he has made big plays this year as well...but I really think he is thinking to much out there. He is worried he is shooting too much and it is affecting his game. Nate really needs to sit him down and tell him to just ball..jmo

    outlaw is my favorite blazers always has been..When he came to us it was like a ray of hope. He was young and his dad is a cop so you know he would end up a nice good ol boy unlike the trouble makers we had to cheer for before.
