Yup. This team is so much better than the Westbrooks on so many levels. Talent, leadership, coaching, fit, fan support. But... Bucher's hair is pretty.
Also- I never bash Oden. Not like people in here bash Outlaw if he has a bad game of fails to hold his man to 0 points. That is bashing. Check out these threads started by ME: http://sportstwo.com/forums/showthread.php?t=139264&highlight=On Oden http://sportstwo.com/forums/showthread.php?t=139264&highlight=On Oden Doesn't look like bashing to me.
Nate has stopped playing head games with the bench and it shows in their execution. The whole team is ready to rock in the playoffs.
Was that a mistake on Mike Rice's part? At the end of the half he is -22. Jeff Green is -38. We may get to see a little Jerryd Bayless in this game.
Congratulations to the Nuggs. You can't really count on the Kings to help you win your division. Hopefully Denver is too busy celebrating to take us seriously on Wednesday.
When Oden doesn't do well you a lot of the times go off the deep end and then later to do damage control you often post positive threads. So Outlaw never has a bad game so shouldn't ever have negative stuff said about him? It works both ways and yes what you said about people bashing him is the main reason I said anything about Oden. I shouldn't have said anything about being a man or not, my bad. But I'd think it'd be a lot easier to admit at times you do get frustrated and go to extremes. Otherwise you don't have a clue what a serious project is. Oden certainly isn't one.
I thought Durant was supposed to be a future MVP candidate. That we didn't have any player that was good as him?
Yep, that's the exact same point I made in the original Bucher thread - defense and rebounding win championships. With Joel an Greg, the Blazers have it covered now - and or the next 15 years. OKC doesn't have a single decent young big on their roster - let alone a dominant one. BTW Ric Bucher, the Blazers have now outscored the Thunder by 66 points over the last game and a half. You may want to re-think your position on the future of these two teams - while you enjoy a healthy helping of crow with a side of humble pie. BNM
I thought Rick backed off his brighter future then the Blazers premise and just wrote a glowing article about the Griz's future? What did the article actually say? STOMP
Anyway, sounds like it's a great game! Wish I could watch it. The one stream was so bad it wasn't worth watching and the quality one just stayed a blank screen the part that the video is suppose to be in.
Eric is an extreme FAN, which is the best kind. Not that I ever go to extremes over any certain player. A "serious project" usually doesn't pan out. Last one who did was an auto mechanic named Mark Eaton.
