Around SBN: In Crunch Time, Spurs Don't Change Their Game

(OT) In Honor of Lizzy Lowblow

Well, our first round is completed, and through Amlmart1's unimpeachable judgment, three winners were chosen. But our contest is just beginning, and a lot of points are still available to win the redundant title of "Unofficial Blazer's Edge Masked Persona" Official rules can be found here.

Update

Point totals as of Tuesday Morning

92wastheyear - 3 points

AnntheFan - 2 points

Jksnake99 - 1 point

Up today is Lizzy Lowblow. It is your job to do your best impersonation of The Lizard answering this question: "What will Portland's journey through the playoffs look like in the 2008-2009 season?" And tomorrow morning, or whenever lizards get around to it, the judgment will be pronounced. Good luck to all!

Like a bike ride up the coast

Huffin’ ‘n puffin’
Scootin’ and tootin’
Climbin’ the hill.
Peddled my bike across the Yukon once!
Popped a tire on a pop top.
They’ll be ups and down but our boys gotta keeps their eye on the prize.
Coach Nate will steer ‘em in the right direction.
KP will keep ‘em supplied.
Gotta keep on pumpin’ towards the goal.
Lotta twists an’ turns ahead.
In the end, they’ll reach the peak ‘er scenic lookout.

Ok ….now it is me 92. I didn’t really know know how to go about imitating Lizzy. Mostly what I remember about those posts was that it seemed like a bunch of random stuff with a little Blazers in the middle part. So that was what I tried.

No offense intended ^^

Mid-Night in Hawaii

The sun sets in the Pacific Ocean
Thanks for all the thoughts
and T Darkstars honor

I will always enjoy ya BEdgers energy
along with our Blazer Boys

In the meantime, an song
to get us thru the night
and down the road, Tomorrow

I’m ridin’ in the rain
Just ridin’ in the rain
What a glorious feelin’
I’m happy again
I’m laughing at clouds
So dark all about
The sun’s in my heart
Gots the "Redhopper" out
Let the stormy clouds chase
Everyone from the place
Come on with the rain
I’ve a smile on my face
I ride through the dawn
With my Rain Chaps on
Just ridin’,
ridin’ in the rain

Revealin’ “The Red Hopper”
Lizzy’s “Work Crummie”

The Lizard will come
Judgin’ all
Some will Raise
Some will fall
When the “Lizard” comes around

Gorsh

Who could win? All are good. Corvid said “Go Balzers”, which I was waiting for someone to do. JTduck also was listening to the Farmers Pre-game show and updating the gameday thread with what the radio is saying, and went hardcore with a Lizard picture for his icon… TiH was spot on, as was Ann and Jksnake99… I don’t envy you, Lizzy Lowblow! You’re bound to make enemies with several loyal Bedgers, so choose wisely.

Choose those you know you can destroy as the non-winners, and make the ones who can grant you political privileges as the top 3. You’ll soon have your every wish fulfilled and the Blazers start a 10 year dynasty that only ends because a meteor hit the Earth, causing a lockout-esque mini season with no playoffs. After the dust settles and the dead are accounted for, the Blazers begin their next run of consecutive championships that last for 5 more years. Then, we win the lottery and are back on the fast track to excellence.

All cuz of who you pick, Lizzy! Now keep in mind, the meteor is gonna hit us one way or another, so don’t think you can avoid killing billions by not choosing a winner. By choosing correctly, you at least let us enjoy 10 great Blazer seasons until the semi-tragedy happens (semi-tragic because only LA and some loser countries are hit by the meteor).

On this, all depends.

Mortimer, do us a favor?

When the meteor hits LA, please make sure your’re not in the area. Go on a second honeymoon or something. I’d hate to have you breathing in all that alien-meteor-Hollywood dust. It might affect your nervous system—and if your typing fingers stop working, it’s gonna be sad, sad, sad.

Colonel Rondo and his second round armada? 

If Boston is determine to rebuild and cut salary isn’t two mid lotto pics and the right salary filler decent. Maybe not enough but better than what most teams get in that situation.  I would prefer that over the Chris Paul package.

I hope and figure that the Trail Blazers could have the best of both worlds. I’ve never seen a more bountiful 2nd round. Its conceivable that the team could deal both lotto picks and still find some nice players in the draft.  Players like Orlando Johnson, Lucas Nogueira, Kevin Jones, Will Barton are 1st rounders in most drafts even if its just based on hype and potential. Then you have some possible gems in such a deep draft like Machado, a couple guys that I personally like from Georgetown-their center Henry Sims and forward Hollis Tompson.  Both high upside players that I would love to watch in the summer league.  If PA were to ever buy into or trade into late first or second round now is the time. Give me Freeland, Diebler and four second rounders in the summer league with Rondo coaching.
