    I mean, sure, the Blazers unfortunately lost to the Wizards, but, did you REALLY think they'd beat the Sixers tonight???

    Also, credit Nate with this win. He adeptly mixed and matched with great feel and skill.

    I give Nate credit for sitting Webster down in the first when he was 1-8 or whatever, though I think he deserved at least a look in the second half. I wish they would've run the back-down-Iverson-in-the-post play more than once for him, as well. Oh well.

    Cynically, I wonder if Blake or Outlaw or Rudy would've been pulled if they started 1-8 (we didn't see that much in the early season), but I'll chalk it up to "Nate Growth" and give BoD on this one.

    Rudy was 2-6 although he did look good tonight on both sides of the ball...I didn't remember Webster taking any bad shots. With how well he's been playing lately I was kind of waiting for a game like this to happen...We'll see how he bounces back.

    I won't complain when Nate makes a great in-game adjustment, even if that means he might not have made one earlier in the year or his run here. Repeating a mistake would be the real trouble.

    Rudy did a lot of "little things" off the ball and even defensively which made up for his less efficient second half. Without that really sweet assist to Aldridge for the and-one layup in the closing moments of the game we maybe don't win that game.

    good win but that wizards loss was still real bad. we have no chance in boston. pistons are playing well.... so they could easily be 1-3 on trip. we have a 2 game lead for playoffs.

    I've said it before, I'll say it again: This current season is doomed and this team has no business making the playoffs. It's so bad that even if KP makes a perceived great deal, that will fail miserably in the end, as well.

    If none of the above transpires as stated, then KP and Nate should absolutely become EOY and COY, respectfully.

    so roy and la arent franchise players then.

    if this team isnt good enough to make the playoffs minus oden and pryz and outlaw... then dont expect us to do well next year either.

    I'm saying Roy is gonna be out a "lot" longer than folks anticipate. It's just another setback in a freakingly ridiculous string of setbacks this season.

    He says that shit all the time. He's never right and he never responds when he's called out for it. He's a troll.

    Knowing your opinion about Nate, I think that is big of you.

    :cheers:
