Game Thread 2022-23 Game #79 - BLAZERS @ GRIZZLIES - APRIL 4, 2023 - TUESDAY - 5:00 PM (PDT) ROOT

I get that

but both times you've mentioned it you've contrasted it with the starters. So it's legitimate to point out the situations the starters were facing versus what these guys are facing. It's a lot easier to watch lovable losers when you love the losses

 

I mentioned it because Lamar mentioned it. And I don't love the losses, but it seems a 'necessary evil' to get this franchise legit talent since they don't seem to do it trade wise and can't seem to do it FA'cy wise.

 

you need to have good assets to land legitimate talent in a trade. Olshey left a bare cupboard for Cronin. And it's still pretty bare

as for the lovable losers and rooting for losses, an example: people here, including myself, were chucking about and celebrating the shit Eubanks did in the 4th Q last night. If he or Nurkic had pulled that shit in a 4th Q in January people would have gone ballistic

 

This dude just ACTUALLY thought this and typed it out. I love this place.

 

Why? Why put that dude on blast like that? You think HE wanted to take his best player off the court in a winnable game? This doesn't make sense bro.

 

Sarcastic
Deserves a chance
Temper expectations
People need to chill the fuck out

 

I don't know if I buy that. Heard it from the Minnesota announcers. So, our guys were fighting harder because some team might be watching them than the guys fighting for a playoff spot?

 

What’s your purpose for being on here? Saying that he looks good in a few games means I’m freaking out over him? What other positives can you extract from this?

 

As this season got heavy, we would see Billups yank bench players on a heater, just to replace them with jello legged starters. I thought it was bad coaching through biased favortism, but I did not realize it was a predetermined tank year.

 

Affordable luxury. They are pretty nice and we needed a third row seat for kids. Everything else is either 60-70K or a minivan. I was actually impressed with KIA? They have a lifetime warranty going right now.

 

Mazda merged with Ford in the 90's. Everyone that buys a newer Ford is actually getting a Mazda. (Other then giant trucks, those are still built Ford tough)

 

Your information is out of date.

 

good luck finding a Ford that doesn't have a twin built by Mazda in Japan. Like I said, 1/2 ton and up trucks and news crew vans are a different category. So are exotics like the Mustang and Miata.

But it all don't matter pretty soon. Every new car will be an electric import from China.

 

Move it to our car thread FAMS!!!!!

 

Your definition of "exotic" differs from mine sir/ma'am.

 

ok...but isn't your idea of exotic sprinkling paprika on a turkey-burger?

 

I don't understand this take at all, yet I still smile.

 

They make burgers out of turkeys?~?~?~?~?!!!!!

 

It’s a game thread I apologize for bringing up the car.

 

If you sat in a 500hp Mustang, you would accept the cheaper aspects and smile during every takeoff.

Miata? I saw a guy put a V8 in one, but the damn car is too tiny and got scary speed wobble at 150mph. Probably why they offer just a 4cyl Sunday cruiser.
