    I'm disappointed that the refs are calling him so closely. Sure, they were all fouls.... but they were ticky tack. I'm not disappointed. His production is through the roof. If we could simply keep him on the floor, it wouldn't be a problem anymore.

    Come on Maris. What part of his line are you complaining about? He had a perfect Sergio line tonight. What part are you unhappy about? The 11 assists or the zero turnovers?

    PS.... is that a racist comment or what?

    Someone explain to me the rationale of not playing either of your centers against a team that has no center?!

    Gotta play Blakey and use a inept defensive scheme that requires 7'0 280 pound guys to switch onto lightning quick guards. Just gotta do it. Can't not do it. Just can't.

    He doesn't look that great when he's on the floor. He grabs some boards cuz he's tall but he he's so clumsy out there, often finding ways to turn the ball over when wide open under the basket. After a summer of work with Brian Grant and Coach Bayno, his offense has actually gotten worse this season.

    1 of 6 from the field, including two missed layups that resulted in easy baskets for the Hawks on the other end.

    Oh man Kingspeed is turning into the Nate McMillan of the forum; I predict great humor and possible suspensions from going down this path.

    LOL he grabs boards because he's tall? You know how many tall players in the NBA couldn't board? How about Ha? He must have been a rebounding machine, right?

    Blake should play no more than 15min a game.

    I find it funny McMillan never sits Blake for defense. He gets burned every game.

    Please trade him. Nate, too.

    WOW! It all makes sense now. That question was asked of Maris, and Kingspeed responds. Maris is your "other you". It is so clear now. The personalities have strong similar, bat-ass crazy traits. I can't believe I missed it before.

    Yeah, but you're criticizing the guy with 11 assists and zero turnovers, yet Blake escapes your criticism.

    post game nate calls out outlaw for not shooting indirectly!

    nate needs to figure out rotations and stop trying to play two PGs at the same time with miller and blake that simply doesnt fucking work..... and he kept flip flopping between people every thirty seconds, and martell shoulda kept shooting till he was cold again.... broy looked off today

    We're reaching a low point in criticizing Oden; if only some of our other forwards or guards could reach as much as Kingspeed here they might grab more rebounds themselves.

    Miller was entrusted with the ball with the game on the line and he fucked up. Ruined an otherwise good game for him.

    The stats don't lie KS, 8/9 is on pace for 20/20 in 36 minutes. And I know you're going to attack the minutes part, don't bother. The guy is productive when he plays, that's all that matters, but you don't seem to care because he looks "clumsy".
