Post Game: Blazers

[DH34Phan]

Salmons played well. Sanders played well in garbage time.

Besides that, the team looked awful.

[Scoops]

Way to step up and take charge of the team Bogut. Marks is tough though, let's be real.

[stevescheffler06]

Really hard to even care about the team that showed up tonight.

[The Wet Whistle]

Addition by substraction. It is unbelivable how better some teams are without some players even if those players are talented and have good stats. Wait and see

[drawingtechs]

With our current team chemistry, with or without Jennings we would have been hammered tonight. Hope we start getting it soon.

[SheedsWeed]

*sigh*

Lakers tomorrow.

Salmons was awful early, as was everyone else except, strangely, Dooling and Gooden.

Salmons was OK in junk time (aka the second half), everyone else complete ass led by Bogut who was absolutely awful. No idea why Skiles had him setting high picks and us shooting jumpers over his head the entire first quarter other than the very first play of the game but that doesn't excuse the sh*t he served up after that. Terrible performance.

Oh yeah, Scott I know you don't have much to work with right now but here's a tip, when you've got a guy averaging 21ppg since coming back from injury and your best scorer goes out GIVE HIM THE DAMN BALL. Here's one more, your rotations eat sh*t and Brockman may be the worst player in the NBA, playing him for extended periods is not a good idea. K Thanks.

Skiles pubed this game up worse than Bogut did. His rotations were even worse than usual (see mid 1st quarter). He is back to playing Brockman over Sanders again for no reason, and he subbed Brockman in for Gooden while Gooden was having a good stretch and subsequently left Gooden out till he got cold again.

He never really committed to going to Bogut in the post, and even if Bogut is having a bad game you don't abandon your team identity and your best player because he misses a couple shots in a row.

Was a terrible game from almost every player, but it was also a terribly coached game, for basically the entire game.

I don't get this... we had won what 4 of 5 before he got hurt in the SA game, lost that game to the best team in the league on a last second shot. Things were looking pretty good.

Bogut didn't start the game out well, its true. But point me to a successful team that just stops going to their best player completely if he doesn't start the game hot. Bogut needs to get 15-20 attempts per game, 7 is ridiculous and completely Skiles' fault.

[KingCammo]

**** abysmal.

[GHOSTofSIKMA]

we were brutal. lakers game is gonna be down on our knees with a rag in the mouth bad. at least we hhave skiles to get us ready. good night all.

[drawingtechs]

Big changes are needed if we want to start winning, something needs to happen. Surely Hammond is aware of this and is in the midst of conjuring something up. If not, we are ****

[AussieBuck]

Seems like a game that should have a BOAT thread, I can't be arsed doing it though. I'd rather watch Blake Griffin dunk on fools.

Yeah but the difference is, Bogut and the rest of the team didn't play like a bucket of **** in those games, if they did we would have been blown out in those games also. Our current team chemistry is rooted.

[JayMKE]

It's time to tank guys. There are no win now moves. If we can get rid of Maggette, Gooden, or Salmons do it but this season is pretty much dead. Hope everybody is healthy next year with our high draft pick.

[FireStreetlifeNow]

Really hard to even care about the team that showed up tonight.

+1

Can we please cut Skinner and pick up a younger guard who can shoot the ball. While we're at it, let's get rid of Brockman and Boykins. The only way they'd ever be effictive is if you let Boykins ride around on Brockman's shoulders. This is going to be a painful stretch w/o Jennings.

Also, is Ersan allergic to dunking the basketball? He misses so many close layups that would be easy buckets if he'd just dunk. Others do this at times too.

[blkout]

It's not time to tank lol. We knew we'd struggle through this stretch, if Jennings was going to get injured at all then he got injured at the "best" time because we weren't going to win a lot of these games as it is.

I will agree obviously Bogut played like crap, but did anyone else play worse than normal? I don't think so. We never got beat this bad even when Bogut was out. I think Bogut and Brandon have a good chemistry and he missed having Jennings out there. We may (probably) still would have lost, buy my money says it would've been a lot closer. I just think it's too much of a coincidence that his first game that he is out, we (and Bogut) play the worst game of the year.

[clownparade]

clearly we shoulda done that jennings for mo williams trade while we could, this game woulda been a 50 point win for the bucks if they had mo out there.
