    As a college student, I'd hope that you wouldn't make leaps in logic.

    What I gather from this is that you do want to keep being a consistent poster on this forum. I realize there are things about it you don't like, but does all the criticizing help? I'm adding to it right now, but it seems to just start more off topic arguing.

    I'm a mod of a forum with no active posters. If I ever became a mod here I would definitely be better about the "making stuff up" thing, but right now I'm not too worried about it. Sorry if I misrepresenting your opinions on the topic.

    He already said McMillan.

    I'm not sure if I would agree with that, but I'll just add that Miller didn't help at all. 13 shots is too many for him, especially when he's struggling.

    Well I don't think you are trolling...just fail posts. I was talking about MIXUM.

    I said McMillan and Miller in the game thread. The Wallace thread was more for historical perspective, yet it makes me a 'MIXUM' to the busybodies.

    Why is it relevant whether he wants to post here? Do we all have to take a loyalty oath now?

    While posting a lot, I may start saying I don't want to post here, just to confuse you and give you a headache.

    On a side note, I noticed Luis Scola had 28 points, 5 rebounds and 1 assist on 23 shots tonight and his team lost by 6 points.

    This has happened only 4 times in the last 26 years.

    I'm impressed. How do you nail yourself to a cross? I can see how you'd get the first hand, but the second and the feet?

    If you had to rank the reasons why we lost, Gerald Wallace would be at the bottom of the list. Thanks, Crash for a hell of a game!

    You're giving PapaG too much credit. Between the two, he's clearly the lesser of two evils and much more tolerable. Y'all know what he does but, to his credit, at least he doesn't make BS posts or threads then sits silently at his computer and fap, fap, faps away with his Jergens like Mixum did. To a fault, he'll stay in the thread to argue his point and address anyone/everyone that cares to reply - he certainly doesn't run from any interwebs forum fights. Some of his arguments can be fairly well thought out and dare I say convincing. However, it'd be a lot easier to take him seriously if he didn't make it a point to argue with just about everyone about seemingly everything.

    And if you don't want to get tied up in an argument with Papa, don't post between the hours of 11pm to 2am, everyone knows that's when he patrols (one "L") this forum. PapaG owns the night.

    Wallace was a complete stud, drawing 7 thunder offensive fouls, blocking shots, driving to the basket,outside shots, scoring at will, he showed big time heart. I loved what i saw from gerald! He was the reason the game was within 2 when he stripped durant and durant flailed and they called it a foul. The call was bullshit and i felt the team sort of new it was bullshit NBA star fucker calls. We didnt get a good call the rest of the way and the lead ended up being 9. This game was neck and neck and the blazers deserved to win with most of the blazers sucking and 1 guy playing awesome. Thats how i saw it. So Pumped to have Gerald on our team!!!

    Gerald Wallace is MAN:cheers:

    Amen Brotha. Insinuating anything else for three pages is kinda crazy.

    At the top of my list would be getting LMA the ball, it seems we forgot him once again. Even if Crash is on fire, dropping it in the post first is always a great way to get the defense off balance, then you can cut, slash, or swing the ball. The lack of ball movement until late in the clock was ugly and very frustrating.

    Right on schedule... another night of Papag on the prowl, looking for an argument.

    oh yeah... :dunno: :dunno:


    With respect to the topic:
    Wallace played an amazing game. It is pretty lame to criticize him for taking too many shots when he shot 57%.

    That said, I don't think we should be running an offense where Wallace is coming off screens and shooting 20 footers. That just isn't his game.

    Maybe it's a good thing Wallace DIDN'T pass the ball. No one else except him could hit a shot. If he'd been passing, we probably would have lost by even more.

    Agreed; 0 assists is more a symptom of his teammates' play, and not his. Guys who make a living off assists see their stats suffer if their teammates can't hit the broadside of a barn.

    No one's celebrating, that I can tell, but it's worth pointing out that OKC has a better record than we do, and just might be a better team.

    It's called Prep-work. You set a bunch of nail guns on an opposite cross, triggered by a cord, get in position and pull. Have you never watched Mythbusters?
