Preseason Gameday Open Thread - Suns

PrintUpdate: The Blazers just sent out a text...
The Trail Blazers sign LaMarcus Aldridge to a five-year extension today.
There will be a press conference tomorrow; I'll be there. Should be awesome. Read more about the signing at Blazers.com.
---------------------
Round one against the Phoenix Suns this preseason didn't go the Blazers way. Round two, this time in Vancouver BC rather than the Memorial Coliseum, looks to be a depleted affair. Joe Freeman tweets...
Turns out Batum is in - and will start - tonite when the Blazers meet the Suns. He'll join a start linuep with Blake, B. Roy, LA and Oden.
Given that the Blazers just cut Ime Udoka and Jarron Collins, and Patty Mills and Jeff Pendergraph are not available due to long-term injury, Nate McMIllan might not (hopefully not) see his team this short-handed all season long.
Update: the Blazers texted to say GO and LMA are probable while Batum is questionable.
As for the Suns, Goran Dragic is a game time decision and Steve Nash will play in front of his hometown crowd, according to Paul Coro. Hopefully the Blazers didn't have any problem getting plenty of ankle tape for Andre Miller and Steve Blake through customs.
Tip is at 7PM Pacific. Once again there is no television tonight. Radio: 95.5FM.
In the meantime, be sure to check in on the brilliant Phoenix Stan and company over at Bright Side of the Sun. I love that site.

I would prefer the Blazers score more points than the Suns tonight.
Yes! Yes! In the face!

that would be my preference, too
and that no one gets injured

I concur ...
… foremost importance being lack of injury, followed by the the scoring of more points by the team I support than by the rival team in the contest.
"Is it always like this?" Collins said after the scrimmage. "It was like the first game of the NBA playoffs or something."
Were it that ...
… none be injured, all be strengthened in both body and wisdom in the art of basketball, that chemistry be established between the various guard positions in especial, and that in the end, as has been mentioned, that more points are scored by our team than theirs.

How about a good game for Roy, Aldridge, and Oden?
All three haven’t played well in a single pre-season game. That would mean more to me than the final score.
you must have no watched much games then
cuz oden has played well when hes been in
Trade for Luis Amundson!!Do it KP!!
my fault. terrible use of the English language on my part.
They haven’t all played well in the same game.
the suns are always
an exciting team to play, hopefully the guys can get out of their shooting slump and knock down some 3s
Cleveland is not going to win the title!

Shaq should spend more time on his game
And less on stupid stunts like intro gags and reality TV shows.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
Dude ...
honestly, nobody dislikes Shaq more than me, but what’s he got left to prove?
He was the biggest, bulliest bruiser that basically rewrote how the officials called the game. Part of the reason Joel and Greg are getting so many touch calls in these pre-season games is that the refs don’t know the the Shaq-call rules in the NBA. Centers are allowed to push and shove each other a lot. didn’t used to be that way (that I recall) but now it is in this league.

Shaq will ruin their team
Just like he did here in PHX.
He first comes in saying he’ll be the “role player” Cleveland wants him to be…
then that will get old and he’ll start demanding touches, and it will go down from there.
They say "don't swim with the sharks", but I'm faster than sharks so it's not a big deal...
Since Shaq is no longer on the Suns I could make them
my second favorite team now that you have Channing.

lol Amar'e is going to score atleast 35
as long as he plays for atleast 30 minutes. No Aldridge. No Oden. Pryzbilla will be busy with Channing while Amar’e crushes you crazy Blazer fan’s heads into the floor.
and Nash will be inspired tonight for obvious reasons. Should be atleast 57 standing ovations for him tonight.
honestly? Channing will keep Pryzbilla busy?
C’mon. we love channing, but his game isn’t that bombing.
If LaMarcus is out, Amar;’/e may have a big night, however.

he was good during preseason, but i don’t believe he will be AS effective in the regular season.
His numbers
when Alvin Gentry took over last year were really good

plus - if you compare him
to your boy Bayless (who played about the same amount of time last year as Dragic) Dragic has the edge.

he's pretty shnazzy
but he’s been very inconsistent with his shot so far in the preseason. When he’s been hot, he’s been HOOOTTTTT. When he’s cold he’s been pretty terrible. I think he’ll shoot over 47% this season as long as he maintains a steady amount of minutes.
Agree with that
He just a guy that needs to get his rhythmn. He will get the minutes necessary for that to happen. 12 point, 6 rebs and high 40’s in shooting sounds realistic
Not a suns fan, obviously...
But that 29 point outing was pretty neat.

It would just be too hypocritical
Blake over Miller is bad enough when neither Blake nor Roy looked good together in pre-season either.
I can agree with that
Blake needs to just play within himself… maybe with Andre aboard Blake is trying too hard to impress and it’s backfiring

I’m generally at BrightSide, but Blazers are my 2nd favorite team, and I love this site. Glad to be in the comments tonight. This is always so busy! You guys are insane fans…
I’d say most passionate fans, but I’m from Toronto so I know how crazy we get here :P

oh dude, don't make that comparison.
we think of ourselves as the sophisticated crazy fans, compared to the lunatic crazy fans in Toronto.
Plus, we hate your former announcer for screwing Roy out of a unanimous rookie of the year award.

boxscore suggests teh Blazers starters played well. It also suggests that playing a full 2nd unit— with all 5 starters on the bench— isn’t working tonight. This is something I’ve felt about this year already— that the Blazers ought to have Roy, Oden or Aldridge on the court the vast majority of the time. Of course, having Rudy helps the bench, but still.
Anyway, I’m glad Roy apparently discovered his shot.
yeah I'm a big fan of kepinh at least Aldridge or Roy on the floor with the second unit
also would like to see us go only 8 to 9 deep at most
yeah, me too
I’m a fan of some non-traditional lineups in order to get your best players on the court.

I will say that I've always felt he needed to become a 3 point shooter
He was always going to be terribly inefficient shooting deep twos. Might as well work hard on expanding your range a couple steps and improve your efficiency by 150%.
Channing could be a really good fantasy bball player this year.
Big time steal if he gets minutes
Whether it is ACTUALLY effective is up for debate, but stats wise he should produce.

most of the rebounds he gets fall right in his hands
real rebounding is instinctual and he just doesn’t have it…..and never will
He isn't a natural rebounder, no
LUCKILY we got Oden and Joel, who are as natural as a river stream floating peacefully by a tall powerful mountain at rebounding.
