Dunce Cap of Defeat #5 Celtics 87 Magic 56

[surflawyer]

This isn't the first turd we've laid and it won't be the last. I just can't stand losing to the Celtics especially when they are shorthanded.

Wow ... 56 points and a 31 point spread .... that was one big turd.

I vote the entire team.

Everyone...i went with the real dunce cap winner Ryan. He's no better than his dad Troy Murphy. Easy choice and it's not even close.

You know what's funny? Or at least ironic?

You are to Ryan Anderson what you accuse everyone else of being to Jameer. If someone says something that isn't 100% positive about him you attack them, yet I can probably count on one hand how many times I've heard you say something positive about Ryan.

well at least someone else said it. christ.

but nearly all of us have our unique nuances and biases with the Magic FO and players ... so whatever... i can't hate... but i was irritated, like last night i was being critical of everyone's terrible play (not just jameer's), but i got singled out for my one post out of anger about how jameer was being outplayed and out-hustled by bradley... i said "jameer is making bradley look like an all-star" to exaggerate the point of my frustration with nelson and how terribly he played (i mean seriously, jameer should have smoked that clown! i know it, and you know it). no one in their right mind would think bradley is an all-star (gtfo). and i didn't vote for any of the players (so i default voted otis), because it's not all jameer's fault, IT WAS EVERYBODY'S FAULT that we lost the game badly... but whatever... everyone gets nippy on here during a loss, so F it. live and let live.

cat's out of the bag at least. *cheers*

yea im with you, last night almost everyone said how bad ryan was playing, jrich is awful, BBD cant play, redick cant shoot, and everyone sweeps it under the rug and agrees, but once you mention jameer, or jameer is getting outplayed by bradley it opens up the flood gates, "haters, jameer haters are out tonight, bunch of haters, etc"..its like jameer is a secret password to be called a hater, even if hes playing bad some people will not admit it, they will call you a hater instead

ryan was terrible last night, couldn't make a shot to save his life, he should be a bench scrub (nothing), ah come on jameer push the tempo, (all hell breaks loose)

Yeah I know, and the funny thing is... I would venture to say a lot of us ARE NOT "Jameer haters"... that phrase is so pet peeve annoying... I actually really like the guy... but he just so happens to p*** me off a lot with his play at times... most of us want him to play better (what Magic fan wouldn't?)... and I will say this though, the reason Jameer gets a lot of flack on RealGM is because he is essentially our "QB"... he plays the most important position imo!.... he is the decision-maker, he's the ball-handler, he's the tempo-controller, he's the one that initiates everything (when he doesn't defer to Hedo). At the end of the day Nelson gets "QB criticism"... but again, we criticize everybody.

I even criticize Dwight, Ryan, Earl, and Von on many game threads... and I like those guys... but dang, did they all play like absolutely **** last night, we all get angry when we see stupid plays and our players not performing well... so again, it's just "irritating" when people attack folks that "criticize Jameer", but not when the same people criticize any other player... I mean yeah, there are some folks that take it too far, but at least in my and your case we're fair about... heck did I not make a "Operation: Let's Get Jameer Going" Thread a few days? And I posted it the very same night I (and many others) were posting about how crappy Jameer played against the Spurs (what was it, he shot 2 for 16?). So again... it's reaction... it's frustration... and it's real-time criticism... it's not hating. It's done to ALL THE MAGIC PLAYERS, not just Jameer.

[CPBalla2003 n da 863]

I dont know where I read it but it was a quote from Larry Brown or Popovich, if I'm not mistaken. He said something along the lines of "There will be 4 games every season where everything goes perfect for your team and 4 games where everything goes horribly wrong no matter what you try." I guess this was one of those games in this season for Orlando.

well put.

[Neato]

Geez Rynowitzki did not contribute offensively at all? I'm still picking Jameel for contributing in the negative direction.

0-8 isn't taking the team in a negative direction?

Was referring to the 5 really bad turnovers. Here you're not even getting a shot off.

He got 8 shots off .. they didn't go in.

But the entire team was basura, so I went with Otis!

This. Over and over again.

It boggles my mind how ANYONE can call me a Jameer hater after all the times I have stood up for him and defended him. He's playing like ass this season, even a blind man can see that. I want him to break out of it, I need him to break out of it because I don't want to see him traded. But if he keeps this up, we can't justify keeping him.

Hell, last season even I said "Dwight is making Bynum look like an all-star". Or "Caron Butler would be in the Hall of fame if he played all 82 games against us". It's not to be taken literal.

Oh yeah, you know we'll never change, lol.

I do like this board a lot, though. Especially now that I've ventured out more onto other team's boards more often..........There are some real idiots out there. Delusional idiots.

I'm happy our forum isn't as bad as other teams'... or even the GB.

[Hilltop]

I've stopped posting on the GB.

One reason is that I have less time. Whatever time I spend on RealGM will probably be spent talking Magic on this board. Another reason is the 'crowd'.

Truth is, most fans only know about their team and their players. The GB is where they all converge and pretend like they know about everything just because they heard Charles Barkley or Kenny Smith say something on TV.

[Jaxfann]

Everyone...i went with the real dunce cap winner Ryan. He's no better than his dad Troy Murphy. Easy choice and it's not even close.
