Nuggets @ Blazers GAME THREAD (The Blazers strike back edition)

that was ugly.

 

Haha, what a play.

Those of you who say Nate is terrible on offense, just look at that!

 

20 more FGAs than Denver and we're down.. haha.

 

I wish we would go into half time with a lead, but to be down by 2 after how we finished the first isn't bad.

 

Rudy is gah-bage

 

I like Aldridge's aggressiveness, but why can't he make his jumper nearly as much as he used to?

 

He better turn it around in the 2nd half. We need him to win.

 

He's 7 of 12 tonight. Why complain?

 

A big fat 0 points from the bench.. yuck.

 

Fair enough. For some reason I just don't have as much confidence in his jumper this season. I absolutely LOVE his seemingly newfound aggressiveness though.

 

Want scoring off the bench?

Send Mills around a few screens, and on fast breaks; instant offence.

 

What did Kenny and Charles just say about B-Roy? anyone catch it? The stupid feed just cut out the whole time...

 

"Told you so" that he came back too soon after injury for the playoffs.

Said great players always want to play, and coaching staff should have held him back.

 

Barkley blasted the Trailblazers for allowing Roy to play 8 days after surgery last year in the playoffs. He said we weren't going to win anyway, and to risk your franchise player like that was stupid.

Kenny basically agreed with Charles and said any player is going to say they want to play, but the team has to step in and say no. Protect the player from himself. Both cited numerous knee surgeries on Roy as the reason it was stupid....Especially for the Blazers who were hit so hard with them.

 

thanks for the recap.

 

Comcast is fixed!

 

what a terrible start...

 

Aaron Afflalo...

 

Agreed. That kid can score. Get him in there.

 

This feels like a time where it would be nice if Miller took over a little bit, when he's not posting guys up and getting in the lane, it's jumper, jumper, jumper (from everybody else).
