Blazers @ Celtics + 03/09/2012 = Game Thread!

Nah, that would never happen because he'd miss a couple of dumb shots (comes with the "aggression" territory) and get immediately benched by Nate. In order for Nic to get to the spot where he's at now he's had to show McMillan for years that he won't take stupid shots. But I agree, if Nate allowed that type of scoring mentality for young kids then yes he'd be a great scorer. This had just been the first time Nate allowed Babbitt extended minutes in which Luke made his shots.

 

In answer to a couple posts; i don't think Wallace's problem is not trying; actually I think it is trying too hard at times to get things going offensive; putting himself in situations where he fails or turns the ball over. I think if he is given some of the type of plays where he can succeed at scoring; this will keep him working hard on everything else. McMillan thinks you just turn Wallace loose; I actually think he needs a little help with structure and having certain type of plays called.

 

Which owner (other than the Russian) played the game?

 

If a coach quits midseason, no owner will trust him with a head coaching job. A coach has to wait to be fired even if he wants out.

 

Er, I think he's saying he hopes Paul sells the team. And that he's also tired of Allen/Kolde/Vulcans/Hatguys running the show and would like someone that's been directly affliated with previous organizations calling the shots.

To answer your question though, Michael Jordan comes to mind.

 

Oh yeah, thanks, easy to forget him.
