Dec. 22 Junk Drawer

So, topic of the day: What sites do you regularly visit besides BEdge? I get really bored with the usual suspects, and I'm guessing some of you guys do to, so let's collaborate to get some new sites flyin' around.

Four I check reguarly....

1. http://thinkgeek.com - Lots of cool trinkets and gizmos for nerds like me.

2. http://boingboing.net - Lots of random stories from around the Internet.

3. http://dealnews.com - Keeps you up to date on latest tech deals. I think Phil uses a similar one called Slick Deals.

4. http://joshmadison.com/chalkboard/ - Keeps you up to date with Woody's chalkboard from Around the Horn.

 

Keep addin' if it pleases ya.

I’m caught up through season 5…I’m gonna’ wait till 6 comes out on DVD to watch it. I hate having to wait a whole week to watch one little 20 minute episode.

There are some great episodes along the way

by Timmay! on Dec 22, 2009 12:51 AM PST up reply actions  

The view of 'uncomfortable' is a matter of an individual's sense of humor, of course.

If I start cringing while watching a show, I start losing interest. I’m fully aware that I’m basically the one person in the country who doesn’t seem to love uncomfortable scenes that make you cringe.

The US Office does a good job of balancing the humor with the cringing. They popped to the bad side of that line for part of season 5. But overall, the show is still fun.

by Timmay! on Dec 22, 2009 12:57 AM PST up reply actions  

I love the UK Office and didn't find it uncomfortable

But I don’t like Extras nearly as much because it is ALL uncomfortableness, it seems like.

Not ALL, but a much higher percentage than The Office, to me.

I really like the scene where, after you've seen years of Michael connecting with kids

He finally holds Jan’s baby and has no connection with it. It’s a real powerful scene for a light-hearted show.

It’s hard to watch a second time, but it’s powerful the first time.

And there’s definitely more awkwardness coming.

How long until you’re caught up? Sounds like you have 24 or so episodes to go until you’re current. Not sure how crazy you’re going with the marathon.

They really meshed when they moved to their own stories

Leaving the confines of the scripts from the UK Office was the key. In retrospect, Season 1 is very out of place. But that won’t stop me from watching the health care episode every time it’s on.

For me, the British version has two key advantages.

- Ricky Gervais is brilliant. Carell is good, but not as good as Gervais.

Tim is much easier to identify with than Jim.

It’s a helluva lot more realistic.

Well, Sergio got a lot of wide open shots as a Blazer

And, if ya take away his end of quarter flings, his percentage wasn’t awful, but it’s a pretty brutal shot last year.

When I’ve watched him this year (which isn’t enough to intelligently debate his improvement), he looked the same, and he is still fun to watch.

I agree.

I give Nate the benefit of the doubt because I think he’s a smart guy who comes to his decisions intelligently, and my gut says it’s a mix of him and Roy with Dre.

As the coach, he has to be willing to help guide the star through an uncomfortable patch for him, to help in the long run.

If what my unverified gut feeling is somewhat true.

I don't mind Blake starting next to good-Roy and sometimes-good-LMA

But getting the most minutes over everyone was always dumb.

I did like the theory of Miller coming in and being the Roy of the team while Roy was out, just like I liked the idea of him starting but going out first, and coming back in when Roy was out.

It could definitely have been handled better in apparently obvious ways, which makes me think there were less than obvious (but not necessarily correct or intelligent) reasons for the troubles.

You know I’ve been waaaaay in favor of Dre starting and getting the most minutes, with Bayless next.

And Nate willing to do that for the star is good and bad.

Roy, don’t blame others for you not working on your game and only now shaking off the rust.

Nate, don’t give in to Roy’s rust and think you gotta recreate last season.

Dre, don’t make dumb mistakes— you’re the solid vet.

Please just leave me alone regarding Miller

I don’t like how he handled being benched, I did not like his play off the bench, I hate his jump shot, I don’t like his personality and I think it is detrimental to the team. Everyone was high fiving and hugging after Bayless had his big game and Miller walked to the locker room alone. He is now and will forever be a douche to me.

That would be an appropriate way to phrase it.

Calling someone a douche because he didn’t see him hug Bayless or something is another story.

I still think Thom is joking, at the very least he’s exaggerating his dislike. It just comes across as childish after a while. Give it a rest already, or at least talk about it in a reasoned manner.

Plenty of people think Miller had a negative effect on the chemistry, but the hyperbole isn’t doing anyone any favors.

I just always thought it was hilarious Jake was ripping on his podcasts so much (in a good way)

When I always felt he was sorta an inoffensive, middle-of-the-road type analyst… and I saved all my annoyance for Gavin, that I couldn’t save any energy to be mad at anyone else.

I don't think I've ever read Casey's analysis work

I was here for at least a year before signing up, but that was still after Dave’s arrival.

I never think of Casey’s current work as analysis per se… he’s just writing positive stuff about the team.

I love the Pajamagram commercial

Women sure do love pajamas!

And the ladies keep hugging themselves, because they are so comfortable in the pajamas. “She’ll think you spent all month planning it” because she is an idiotic child.

Also, the shot of the guy watching his girl model her shapeless pajamas and he’s SUPPOSED to be biting his lip because he’s so turned on but it looks like he’s holding back laughter.

That being said….I have had 16 in a row before ….I punched out that last five in game 1 (for a whopping 192) and had the first 11 in game 2 for a 298 game. I think I finished with 735-740 …something like that

Absolutely

especially based on the fact that just 1 spare in a game (and the rest strikes) can result in a 269…so anything short of 11 strikes and 1 spare X 3 games will result in you not making your 800

They tried to stop me from too much shopping (hello, are you a bank?) by locking an account that unfortunately I happen to use with Amazon, and now probably a gift will arrive late and I have to check if a more important travel booking also didn’t go through.

When you call they want you to enter some stupid telephone code that nobody knows (not your pin, something else) and make one on stooopid. Well I can give you my address, my age, my name, my “secret phrase”, my card number, wohoo it might be me. Jerks.

hodadies is overrated

Anthony’s is better for straight firsh I think. OB Bar & Grill.. maybe you mean South Beach Bar/Grille in OB? They got killer Mahi Mahi tacos there.

I don’t remember where he ended up going. But basically the story goes that my boss was working really hard for his previous employer right out of college and was told that it would all be worth because when they all go to the convention in San Diego.. they would take him out for this great fish tacos that they serve pool side at the Hotel Del Coronado. But things kept happening. The first day it was like “no no lets do work today and then we can fully enjoy it” and the second day was “oh no if we don’t got to Tijuana today then we won’t get tequila” and so finally they head there the next day but when they get there they can’t get service and find out that they don’t serve those tacos everyday. My boss goes crazy ape-ish on them. The taxi driver says he knows a little place to get some good steak tacos so they go there. It’s like a hole in the wlal dive bar. My boss eats like a dozen of them. The chef comes out and declares him “Taco Boy”. He returns on his next and final day for a half a dozen more of them.

If you say you “busin’ some ladies”, it is slang for giving them the business, which is slang for “doing it”, which is slang for copulation.

Could be. I saw a documentary on modern Berber tribes recently. Tough business, now they are transporting simple things like salt for 6-7 months across the Sahara to Niger or Nigeria and make a few hundred dollar in profit if they are lucky. And one of the elders leading the trek said they don’t like talking about that era anymore, but of course they flourished back then. And it was a very bloody business costing millions of lives on the way before they even reached the ships – and the sea travel was dangerous again.

Portugal had the problem that their kings had already pawned off most of the profits from gold, silver and slavery in advance to Dutch and Italian bankers. And as happened in many countries with colonies, the smart and rich people got in that business and nobody invested back home causing their own economy to collapse once the colonies started to fail or break away.

Or his widow and children are trying to figure out a way to save money for the estate taxes when the team moves to the kids

and this is part of their estate planning.

This should be interesting because with the value of professional teams and US tax law as it is, there are very few families that can afford to pay the tax bill to keep a team in the family. As current owners die, who purchases the team and how willing are they to keep the team in their current location could set off a wave of relocations.

I get it. Since there are so few football games every year, I tend to pay more attention to them even though my Blazer fandom is from birth and stronger than my Duck fandom, which dates to about 1993 and on.

They now have a good trade chip. Or when he is gone still cap room like us this summer.

Cole Aldrich and a few others might be an upgrade for OKC

Though he is a bit tentative sometimes, and OKC might prefer to close the gap via trade. E.g. they could try to do the Okafor trade the Kings (and me) have been talking about. Harpring expiring plus Krstic plus a first round pick or something like that?

by Norsktroll on Dec 22, 2009 5:06 PM PST up reply actions  

Okafor would be great for them

Still not a guy who can guard Oden, but that’d be a great trade for Sactown or OKC if they got Okafor for cheap somehow.

But it's my concern

As far as how we match up with anyone.

They can get who they get, if their big can’t handle Oden, it won’t bother us in the long run.

It goes without saying Oden needs to be healthy.

I would assume Presti knows very well that Krstic and Thomas is not exactly Howard and Gortat or Oden and Przybilla or Bynum and Gasol. If he can change something about it (and is allowed to spend money, which seems increasingly the case), he likely will. Just saying that “OMG we need to plan for Oden” is not at the top of the minds of GMs in the West right right now, unlike the fallout from the Gasol trade and Orlando with Howard killing in the East. That might change with a healthy year for Greg.

by Norsktroll on Dec 22, 2009 5:32 PM PST up reply actions  

I don't expect them to drop everything and make it like how it used to be with Shaq

I just know, as a Oden.boy, that if the OKCs don’t have a guy who can match up with Oden (and who is that guy, in a few years?), then I won’t really worry about them being better than us since I think it’s gonna be, at best for them, equal otherwise.

I don’t think he can really get anyone who can match up with Oden no matter what he does, but Okafor would be a great addition and make them much better.

He rebounds well for his size, but not rebounds average, at best, for the center position. He doesn’t block shots. He doesn’t have a low post game or any type of post game.

Hayes does one thing; he defends very well for his size.

You won.

your argument is not one of position but of quality. His playing style is that of a center in today’s NBA.

Is he a good center? No. Is he better than what we have at center? Heck yes.

he's an enforcer at the 4

he would do very well alongside a player like Bosh. I’m sure he would play well with Yao, but I don’t recall seeing them play together. (I’m sure they have, I just haven’t watched it). A center who can step out and shoot a bit who needs a bit of help doing the dirty work or a PF/C combo like Bosh who definitely could use an enforcer.

not quite

Hayes is a classic 4 as opposed to the new style 4 like Aldridge. He is best suited to playing with a 5 that compliments rather than duplicates his skill set. He would also play well next to Duncan, at least in a 20 minute bench role.

Bosh is a pretty soft PF...

…I’m not sure why he would be a good fit next to Hayes, because if Hayes isn’t a center then there is no center if he’s next to Bosh. Bosh definitely ain’t a center.

I think, aside from height, Hayes is similar to Joel. No offense, so his minutes has always been restricted his entire career, but a very good defender and rebounder.

Hayes doesn’t block a lot of shots, but he gets steals, and plays very good post defense.

I've been saying he's a back up

he wouldn’t play alongside Bosh the whole game, he would come in and provide toughness that Bosh doesn’t, but he wouldn’t get in Bosh’s way like he would playing with someone like Shaq or Dwight Howard.

It’s never going to be ideal when you’re bringing in a 6’6" guy to play either the 4 or the 5, but you make it work by complimenting his skill set.

#52 #88 #10 #8 #5 #25

by Cablinasian on Dec 22, 2009 9:47 PM PST up reply actions  

Height matters because it helps deter opponents going to the rim

Oden changes games not only with his 1v1 post defense and raw strength, but also because he can guard the rim and force players into bad shots or force them out of the key entirely.

Hayes is great at 1v1 defense and pick and roll, but he’s not gonna stop a guy at the rim or in the paint the way Oden or Howard or even Yao (with his tremendous size) does.

This is part of being a center.

it's both

He’s not a true center because he doesn’t do enough things that true centers do.

Things you want a center to do:
Play defense well against other centers.
Rebound well
Be a scoring threat in the post
Block shots

Hayes does one thing on the list well and is okay at rebounding. He only gets 25 minutes (maybe fewer) a game because he can’t play the center position the for 32-35 without being exposed.

Hayes is a stopgap measure and clearly a backup. He’s better suited to be a tough, enforcer type at the 4 playing along side a big man with shooting range.

Norsky gets a mention in Pelton's blurb about Joel

http://www.basketballprospectus.com/unfiltered/?p=398

In this case, it was Przybilla’s patellar tendon that was torn, precipitating the dislocated kneecap. Injuries to the patellar tendon are relatively rare in the NBA. Blazersedge commenter Norsktroll found five examples this decade, including Warriors swingman Kelenna Azubuike earlier this season. Only once did a player return that season, and that was when Antonio McDyess partially tore his patellar tendon in October and briefly played in March. To that end, while the Blazers have yet to announce a timetable for Przybilla’s return, the logical conclusion is that his campaign is likely over

Still I would absolutely agree with Carroll based on the data that it’s easier to come back from breaks than tears of the patellar tendon. Though NFL players routinely returned from it after a year, it also spurred the career end for at least Mourning and Damon Stoudamire (a small and a big, though both older than Joel).

Roy gets very little national love

and doesn’t put up gawdy stats like Lebron, Wade, Kobe or even Melo (with his slew of 40 point games).

He might get some off-hand mentions in the MVP race, but he’s not going to be a threat to win it unless he averages 28-30 a game.

You won.

In the postgame locker room, Roy could not lift his left arm over his shoulder after dinging it in the fourth quarter. After missing a layup, he got tangled with a Dallas player while wrestling for the ball and “tweaked” it. Roy said he was told it was “loose,” and he was in noticeable pain down the stretch and after the game, but said he would try to play versus the Spurs.

He planned to take some anti-inflammatory medication to help his shoulder in the short-term and expects to undergo an MRI when the team returns to Portland on Thursday.

“It hurts,” he said, “But we have to wait and see. I’ll know more in the morning.”

I’m sure this has been to talked to death already, either I’m blind or Mike Barrett doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

Joel didn’t hurt his knee by falling on it. He landed on both feet and he was already reaching for his knee before he fell on it. Falling on it didn’t help matters, but I replayed that about 20 times, and there’s one angle that looks like his knee is creased before his leg folds underneath him.

Right.

More central to my point was Barrett said like 10 times at least that Joel got his foot caught behind his other leg and couldn’t bring it around and then fell on it in freakish sort of way. Which was in no way what happened. He was just completely off tonight on several calls.

Blazers Broadcasters Mike Barrett and Mike Rice re-enacted NBA referee Scott Foster's controversial goaltending call on Portland Trail Blazers forward LaMarcus Aldridge, who was defending Oklahoma City Thunder All-Star forward Kevin Durant, during this week's edition of Blazers Courtside. Remarkably, no one was injured during the taping of this segment.
