    Ive never seen so many missed dunks/easy shots. For once can guys like Aldridge, Outlaw, and others not named Roy worry about making teh fucking shot instead of trying to get oohs and ahs from the crowd. I mean you think Nate would say just make the shot rather then trying to impress the crowd. its fucking annoying.

    With Aldridge and Outlaw, I prefer it. Their dunks seem to go in way more often than their layups, especially when there's room to pack it. And dunks are especially better than the jumpers they take. Also, there's nothing wrong with getting the crowd involved.

    I thought this was a thread started by Ed O after the Fernandez/Ariza situation.

    well thats what seperates guys like duncan from guys like aldridge....

    duncan could give a shit if the fans are excited about his dunk.... aldridge and outlaw... not so much.

    the well coached teams are the ones who finish at the rim instead of trying to get a cheer out of section 2

    LaMarcus only dunks when he is frustrated generally and the idea that he showboats is humorous.

    I have Mixum on ignore and refuse to read the posts (thank you guys for not quoting him) but looking at the thread title, it doesn't surprise me that now that we look like a pretty sure thing for the playoffs, he reaches even further for something to complain about.

    PS. You can click on any poster's name and then click user lists and add them to your ignore list. Any poster you want, even me!

    mixum- what do you think about our record and our current positioning? Weren't we supposed to miss the playoffs if we didn't make a trade? Can you believe we may lead the division in 9 hours?

    well if we had made a trade, games like last night and many of teh past week wouldnt put so much pressure on our star while taking the chance of wearing him out. we still badly badly need more scoring. also im getting tired of blake and our other horrible pgs who have seemed to regressed.

    and just as fast as we can lead the division... we could be in the 8th spot by sunday night.


    with 17 games left .... we dont have many easy ones while 10 are on teh road!
