And here we go with Game #17. Portland had better win. And winning would be easier if they just trounce the Nets early. Discuss the proceedings here. Please be respectful of each other and don't link to or ask for links to illegal streaming video sites.

As always nice
And as Bill Simmons noticed, we don’t get up in the middle of the game, only at the half.

Kiki's being interviewed for NJ
Basically says he knows this stinks, but they do have a long term plan, but that doesn’t make the short-term any easier.
Admits it’s very hard to evaluate the team with all the injury problems.
Long term plan
Sign LeBron
If plan A falls, we suck.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
Even when they move to Brooklyn though
They have to have a marketable major star to draw away Knicks fans.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
The Knicks also of course have a chance
To completely blow up their team after this year. So could be interesting in NYC pro ball.

Nets long-term plan:
- Sell to Russian oligarch
- Move to Brooklyn
- Sign LeBron/Bosh/other superstar
- Profit

Part 2 will happen
Official as of yesterday, the judge in NY dismissed the last challenge.

I really wondered how CDR fell so far in the draft
I don’t know if he can put numbers up for a good team, but he’ll have experience.
Agreed
I like his game a lot

Brandon Roy = Stringer Bell (smooth technician dedicated to his craft)
Nate McMiillan = Cedric Daniels (well intentioned leader, but he can be too rigid for his own good at times)
Martell Webster = Wee Bey Brice (straight up solider who follows orders; every organization needs these guys to be successful)
Jerryd Bayless = Marlo Stanfield (he's new to the game, but he's watching and waitng; he will take over and there will be casualties)
Rudy Fernandez = Jimmy McNulty (he gets results, but the leadership wishes he was less of a wild man; the ladies love him)
Greg Oden = Michael Lee (he started off a quiet kid, but he's beginning to tap in to his huge potential to change the game)
Andre Miller = Lester Freamon (do not let the laconic demeanor fool you, the veteran knows what's up)
John Canzano = Scott Templeton (scummy muckraker who stays up at night polishing his award)

Good spacing and ball movement
of course a bad pass doesn’t help anything
Chain Bayless to the bench
Today I learned where Rice got his "that's what he does": Clyde Drexler says it all the time.

I think CDR plays losing basketball. He’s ignoring the post and I’m not sure about his defense.
i cry for nic
Coach Cal don't teach no D
You ever watch his teams, no D.

He's still pretty young
He still has room to grow. But he’s going to struggle mightily defending Roy.

Starring Jerryd Bayless as "Pay Up"!
The Blazerverse and The Wire: A comparison
Brandon Roy = Stringer Bell (smooth technician dedicated to his craft)
Nate McMiillan = Cedric Daniels (well intentioned leader, but he can be too rigid for his own good at times)
Martell Webster = Wee Bey Brice (straight up solider who follows orders; every organization needs these guys to be successful)
Jerryd Bayless = Marlo Stanfield (he's new to the game, but he's watching and waitng; he will take over and there will be casualties)
Rudy Fernandez = Jimmy McNulty (he gets results, but the leadership wishes he was less of a wild man; the ladies love him)
Greg Oden = Michael Lee (he started off a quiet kid, but he's beginning to tap in to his huge potential to change the game)
Andre Miller = Lester Freamon (do not let the laconic demeanor fool you, the veteran knows what's up)
John Canzano = Scott Templeton (scummy muckraker who stays up at night polishing his award)
Based on what it would cost in a trade (one of Nic or Rudy)
I’d hope Bayless develops into a Harris-light type player. Agree that he’s a heck of a ballplayer though.

I am digging Nate's rotation right now
I’m still curios as to what our close game endgame lineup will look like, but the bench is doing a good job, and Nate is putting out some quality combinations

late call
put most likely correct
bayless leaves over my dead body
Start Andre (in a 2 guard lineup)
I think Dre will keep earning more time
I’m hoping it’s like Ginobili in SA – Dre will eventually play 25-30 mpg off the bench and in crunch time, Steve will get 15-20, but at the start

matchup isn’t about how good the team is. It’s about their defensive philosophy. The Nets pack the paint and make you hit jump shots.

Sorry
Chad Ford on Oden, "He's definitely a defensive force... I don't think he'll ever put up the big numbers that Shaq did. But he could be the best big man defender in the league... frankly, having a 7 footer that can do that will produce more rings than a 6-11 small forward who can score 30 ppg. That was the thinking all along why GMs preferred Oden to Durant. KD is the sexier player and as an offensive player there is just no comparison. KD is great. Oden is aspiring to average. But defensively, Oden could be dominant. KD ... not so much."
Could have said it better myself. Thanks Mr. Ford!
All the retired Blazer numbers are a bad joke.

The Blazerverse and The Wire: A comparison
Brandon Roy = Stringer Bell (smooth technician dedicated to his craft)
Nate McMiillan = Cedric Daniels (well intentioned leader, but he can be too rigid for his own good at times)
Martell Webster = Wee Bey Brice (straight up solider who follows orders; every organization needs these guys to be successful)
Jerryd Bayless = Marlo Stanfield (he's new to the game, but he's watching and waitng; he will take over and there will be casualties)
Rudy Fernandez = Jimmy McNulty (he gets results, but the leadership wishes he was less of a wild man; the ladies love him)
Greg Oden = Michael Lee (he started off a quiet kid, but he's beginning to tap in to his huge potential to change the game)
Andre Miller = Lester Freamon (do not let the laconic demeanor fool you, the veteran knows what's up)
John Canzano = Scott Templeton (scummy muckraker who stays up at night polishing his award)

How is he ever going to learn if he just gets yanked. What's the point, Nate?

Roy: DO NOT BOUNCE PASS TO BIGS IN THE PAINT. EVER.

Unless it's a European big who can do that
Should have drafted one to accompany Rudy and Roy :)

I love the way the Blazers are playing though.

HALFTIME: PDX 49, NJN 44.
Teams played even in the 2nd Q. Not so good.

AFTER Blake came in.
I don’t want to pin it on him but why bring him in when Andre is playing so well?

look for oden to play atleast 20 mins in second half or i am pissed
"shaq and zach randolph have the same trainer... "
best one liner i ever heard.
he gets pulled at teh 6 min mark and goes back into with 10 to go, so the maximum he will play is 16 more
How did you guys win that?

There's no reason this shouldn't be a 12-15 point lead right now.

Martell and Rudy can hit 3's. Blake is totally redundant out there with them.
It’s making me want to vomit.
Literally.
If not for how bad it would be for my precious pearly choppers, I would vomit. On my keyboard. Right now.

Yea. See. The problem with that is...
I’m sort of just a little not close to being an NBA player on ANY team, much less one playing the Blazers.
My teammates used to steal the ball from me…If that’s any indication of my hoops prowess…or lack thereof…

Thanks man. My self esteem goes up 2% every time I post here.
By year’s end I’ll be capable of making impressive motivational speeches and will once and for all pep Nate into having the courage to bench Blake.

Unless both centers have 3 fouls one should always be in
especially against a team that’s killing us inside and doesn’t have much else.
Your confusing thesis has captured my attention. Tell me more.

No no no. Dante was getting a shot at playing center!
That way Joel can be freed up to backup Martell at 3.
Didn’t you see that? Are we watching the same game?

But isn't it wise to limit Oden's minutes overall?
He is still recovering from an injury.
He’s getting around 25 minutes a game, right?
That sounds about right to me. Maybe 28.

I'm just trying to positive for a change!
Help me out, dudes. Help me out.
I’m thankful for the Blazers.
Ahhhhhh. See? I’m so positive right now.

we've given a 0-14 team the confidence to be able to steal on here,
going into the second half.
hard to be positive about that
There are maybe three reasons not to have one of the two in there at all times.
None of those three reasons have been applicable tonight.

He's not still recovering from an injury, the knee is healed
The athleticism he has now should be about the athleticism he will get back. Maybe 5% less.
Ceterum censeo Lakers esse delendam
he's recovering from injury?
What injury? This is news to me

It would be embarrassing to lose this one. It could happen.

Yes it could.
and that would be horrible.
the 3rd quarter and 4th quarters are going to be key. That’s my bold prediction!
