The OFFICIAL Stampede vs Vipers Game Thread 1/3/14.......

Best fans? Subtract the posts that have nothing to do with the game and it is closer to 3.

 

I have to admit his size did catch me by surprise when I watched the highlights. Not used to seeing him bigger than his opponents. But no doubt he is a shot maker. He scores from various ways. Can't have too many players with those skills.

 

He did the same thing in the summer saying we should trade LaMarcus.

 

Yup. I defend my opinions. Sorry if it annoys you..... actually I'm not.

 

Sly good hanging out with you tonight man!

 

Fuck Steve Blake.

Let's drag Rod Strickland out of retirement.

 

Bromance in Idaho.

 

Liked what I've seen from CJ, seems like he could be a solid contributor, all around offensive player. Always liked his in-between game, doesn't have Lillard's long range shooting but seems pretty good at going past his defender than scoring from mid-range jumpers or floaters closer to the basket. Seems like a very smart player, u could see he's not used to playing with these guys also feeling a bit awkward being more highly-regarded than they are, sometimes trying to force the issue a bit, but when he relaxed to playing a more team-oriented role he was able to make some nice things, dishing a few assists and creating for himself and others.
Also, I must comment on Pierre Jackson, NoVoodoo praised him before the draft saying he would be a steal in the 2nd round, I think he definitely deserves a chance in the NBA, he's tiny but has surprising ability at the rim and great 3-point shot. He is a very small off guard but has offensive instincts you can't teach.

 

I was thinking something like this also jlprk. Just reading this thread today makes me think that the guys are really enjoying having her on our forum; and it's a relief that she is tough enough to survive here; that we don't have to worry about driving her off. (and yes there have been several over the years that more or less didn't feel comfortable here)

 

After reading this thread I have another poster I can't fucking stand.

SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU (edited name)

 

This doesnt show his assists but he dished well in the flow of the half court offense, when breaking down his defender one on one and in the transition game. He had a few great passes that his teammates missed a bunny on as well. Seems to have a decent nose for the ball as a guard when rebounding as well. Im not at all worried about the 3 pointers that he missed. Most were on line and just rimmed out. He will be fine there. Tonight's game (1-4) will be interesting to see how he reacts on a back to back.

I got to meet him after the game, real nice guy. Let us take a picture with him and everything. He is pretty short but damn he can ball. Kind of a mix of a poor mans Nate Robinson and Isiah Thomas.

 

I see both of those comparisons.

 

FYI y'all, B.F. and crandc are not the only female posters on this board. It isn't necessary to draw attention to one's gender, or race, to "survive" on a message board. I've seen nothing but respect for other female posters without the need for them to be aggressive to get "respect". The one notable exception being the chick that I didn't believe was a chick who tried to use her looks and persona to get attention from the get-go. I resent the implication that an earnest female poster can't get respect here unless she is combative. That is simply not the case.

First, I wish CJ the best - but it is tough to have a successful NBA career with chronic foot problems.

Second, Mo is currently our best bench player. That should scare the shite out of Blazer fans.

 

Did you get a decent close up look at his cardio? Was harder to see on the stream, but he looked like he was breathing fairly hard in spots.
