Damn Gerald is good!!! He made durant look like a pussy in this game. Durant plays like a girl compared to Wallace That was a clean strip Wallace had on Durant they called a foul, so many bs calls or we would have had this game. Fuck the NBA and the pussy ass star calls.
I thought the reffing was pretty even. There was only a few calls I was upset about, the Wallace layup at the end were perkins hit his hand sucked but we got the benefit of a lot of offensive fouls. Wallace did really well vs Durant reminds me of how he destroyed Lebron last year.
G.Wallace is THE man. If it wasn't for him the game wouldn't have even been close, he was all over the place. I would say the ball was not passed to LMA enough though.
The game wasn't close. The Blazers were behind for all but 27 seconds of the game, and PDX lost by 9, which is a blow-out in the NBA.
What are you talking about? The Blazers lost by 9, and I'm posting about some reasons for it. Do you think Miller played well tonight? Do you think Wallace distributed the ball? LMA got froze out tonight, and it was obvious, IMO.
Really though, are we all supposed to be celebrating a 9-point loss to OKC? If the Blazers had won, I wouldn't be posting anything critical of the team. But, they lost, and handily.
Why should we expect Wallace to pass the ball when he shot so well? If he's got the green light and is playing well, why should assists be any indication of a deficiency in *his* game (if anything, you could say it's an indication that his teammates weren't hitting shots).
because you've assumed the role of mixum. just ask them to change your name to it. Do you honestly think we're too stupid to see it?
MIXUM posted negative threads after wins. When did I do this? You're part of the problem, and bringing MIXUM into this illustrates your own needs, not mine. Some of you weaklings need a target, as I posted in the MIXUM thread.
I was expecting something better than PapaG's off-track skit here in this thread. Wallace sure did kick ass! I'm confident in that this toughness/hustle is something that will stay consistent from here on out. It's one of those things that make our average game better. This team will only get better from here too, that much seems certain. Beating the Spurs when they're playing their A game, then competing @OKC when Ibaka/Westbrook are going bonkers and Durant is getting his usual calls - a very nice development that seems to be directly correlated with bringing Wallace aboard.
who brought up the bit about wallace's "historic" game and snidely mentioned how people call brandon a black hole? twern't me.
The Spurs were playing without Duncan, and the Blazers needed a miracle to win the game. I'm not a negative poster. Please find me examples of your libelous accusation...
No one else could do anything tonight. Without Wallace scoring it would have been a blowout. Wallace didn't get assists cause he's not put in a position to distribute like Roy is/was on his ISOs.
Well, perhaps you're right, but at the same time I watched both games and it sure seemed like the game w/ Duncan was an easier win for the Blazers. LMA could pull him to the perimeter and then could beat him with a jumper, fake w/ drive, or go in for a post up. Splitter did a better job because he was more mobile and was more apt to check LMA way out at designated pick-n-pop spot. Manu went on 3 point shooting streak in the fourth quarter of the last game, and Parker was getting calls galore and Splitter was 5-5. The miracle? Man, it's the best team in the league - anything they do is still from the best team in the league, i.e. if SA makes those kind of mistakes then other teams would make worse mistakes. The only thing that could top it if it was in the playoffs. You are blatantly trolling man, and I'm being sincere. It's fun sometimes, I understand...I guess.
