he’s a really bad writer, his articles are (or at least were since I don’t read them anymore) littered with grammatical errors and misspellings. He’s good at photographing sneakers and complaining about the city though.
I suggested Dame, CJ, RoCo Larry, and Nance. I think CJ fits better with the defensive-minded front-court starters. Plus I want them to go away from CJ being the focal point of the offense with the 2nd unit and I prefer Norm on the floor with Ant.
It's the same as NBA.com. I used to love using their box scores and then they changed it and it became horrible overnight. I still think they tanked their own site to drive people to ESPN (tinfoil hat.)
It’s very obvious he’s never lived anywhere else. Like bro, welcome to any other major city in the country.
This was my complaint with Freeman and Haynes more than Casey. Sometimes I wonder what would have happened to Haynes if Dame/CJ didn't take a liking to him.
Billups said in his interview yesterday he didnt see a problem as league is getting smaller. He doesnt hold back on his takes. Said also, he wants Norm and Ant bringing the ball up while dame rest.
Chauncey is a brand new coach and I expect him to take any challenge he has in front of him head on. Even with that mindset he said having that small of a forward would become a problem in the playoffs because teams would start targeting that. I think teams will game plan for it from day one. I'm not saying I know better than Chauncey, I'm saying Chauncey has a stake in being optimistic and setting a high expectation for his team... that doesn't always equal reality. He'd be a terrible coach if he let everyone off the hook by saying some shit like, "Yeah, it's too bad we've got a short guard playing the 3 and two small guys who have struggled defensively their whole careers at the 1 and 2 so we're pretty much fucked on defense and better just out shoot our opponent every night because we're not getting stops." That's not how a coach should be. Even if the situation is less than ideal the coach should expect his team to perform and coach them to do so but that doesn't mean that the results will follow.
I know. It also included "Dame" and "Lillard" in his starting 5 as well. (same post) That is why I said two sets of twins. Edit: Oh I get it...my previous post had both.
Nance said he'll probably be guarding more SFs that are bigger like Lebron...Chauncey said Norm would play alot of 2 guard with the second unit and that they'd adjust in the playoffs as necessary....Chauncey is a very direct and clearly spoken coach..I like him alot
The point was and still is that at least half of the league has a much bigger lineup and pretty much all of it is bigger. That is IF Nurk can somehow stay on the court (Very unlikely) and Zeller can keep from getting injured (Quite Unlikely). Blazers lack length. Everyone who is paying attention knows this.
