C - Nene PF - Martin SF - Melo SG - Affalo PG - Billups C- Bargnani PF - Bosh SF - Hedo SG - DeRozan PG- Calderon Tough game, lose 106-97 GOTG
this is the game that got smitch fired last year- the raps lost by 30 points or something horrific like that, falling to 8-9 and colangelo fired him the subsequent morning and of course in their next game against utah- they get blown out again. btw, the raps matchup really bad with this team- they have a physical frontline, a dynamic scoring wing (melo) and a physical point guard (billups) but i like our bench. i say the raps win 107-101
notes -derozan needs more run -wtf is up with weems jacking and triano doing shit all about it? -jack is playing his arse off -bosh is playing like a pussy against kmart -rasho sucks, he looks even slower than he was two years ago and thats just pathetic -we need to stop double teaming melo and allow him to be played straight up by wright -triano needs to abandon the two pg look today or else he would have squandered another game with his stubbornness -caledron is playing incredibly efficient -jr smith is a fun player to watch, too bad we dont have anyone contesting his shots
Considering how tough a matchup Denver is, I've been pretty impressed with our play so far. It's pretty clear that we were gassed at the end of the 2nd quarter though. Our personal foul tally is going to hurt us come the 4th quarter. I don't expect him to shut him down or anything, but Bosh has to do a better job on Nene. At least put in enough effort to keep up with where he is on the floor. After starting the season shooting something like 50% & 50%, Bargnani's shot has cooled considerably over the past week. The team's using him as more of a diversion. It was good to see him take to the basket more in the 2nd quarter. Apparently, I might have swine flu.
the nuggets are attacking the paint and the raps are taking jumpshots- i dont blame the refs for awarding the aggressors. although, if i was a raptor- i would take melo or jr smiths hands off with a fould- we all know melo cant fight. remember when nate robinson, all 5 foot 9 of him chased melo around msg and melo backed off like a pussy that he is?
no way!!! i knew a guy who was like in his 40's and he died from it about 5 months ago when the outbreak hit first but i havent heard of anyone else since then. how do u feel? i heard onions have been used a lot as an alternative treatment. drink lots of fluids (e.g. gatorade) and drink chicken soup. say away from your parents and older ppl in general because they are at a much higher risk of complications
I'm not exactly sure I do have it. I got this flu from my brother, and he went to the emergency room because he fainted from dehydration, where they said it wasn't H1N1 (because he wasn't experiencing shortness of breath). I went to the family doctor today and he said it probably was, due to its severity and my high temperature. Neither of them formally tested us for it. Either way, it's a really strong flu. It's given me a really strong headache and I alternate from burning up to shivering from coldness. I've definitely secluded myself from everyone and have been drinking enough fluids.
rasho shouldnt play another minute on the floor unless its against shaq or big z. notes -raps were gassed -i thought i saw bosh getting demonstrative in the direction of triano (me wonders what that was about) -bargnani doesnt compete at all defensively and thats like the 10th time ive said that this year and he needs to stop taking those off balanced jumpers -derozan needs more run -melo eviscerated wright, particularly in post up scenarios -wtf is up with pops jacking up shots in garbage time? rebound, hustle and defend- thats your role, nothing more, nothing else
apparently 36 ppl out of the 6.5 million who took the shot in canada experienced some type of extreme allegeric reaction, including a death. that data was frightening to hear but after reading about your bout with the swine flu- i guess i have no other option.
just looking at the boxscore and i noticed that rasho was a -17 in 8 minutes and 38 seconds- thats terrible!!!
