Around SBN: Devils Beat Rangers, Head To Stanley Cup Finals

JD 01-20-10

So my wife gave birth to baby #3 on Monday.

Star-divide

Since I don't have to go back to work for the rest of the month, how should I spend my time when everyone else is asleep?

So far I have been kicking around the idea of comparing the health care debate to the Blazers Point Guards. Sebastian Telfair is playing the role of the current system (not in the long term health of society). Steve Blake is Medicare/Medicaid (does some things better than Telfair, but can't do a lot of things well either). Chris Paul is a single-payer, universal system of insurance (far superior than what we have, but we can't get it because it is too radical of a change). I am still looking how to work Andre and Bayless into this topic. Thoughts?

I've done my fair share of acid and mushrooms. Acid's like anything else, once you've done enough, you learn to control it, or at least expect what's up next, and the fun is gone.

Cocaine is great fun, and thus not much fun at all: Too much is WAY too much. I avoid it now. Maybe once every few years, but that’s been a few years now since I made that little rule.
By the way, “Mortimer” i hope you will let the real Mortimer go soon. He’s really a nice fellow and a lot of good fun here at BlazersCentral. He doesn’t know anything about any drugs nor does he have any use to your DEA intelligence office.

I goto college at WWU

in Bellingham WA. There is a place called the arboretum next to the campus. It’s basically a hill with a bunch of bike trails and a radio tower on top and it also has a big watchtower that you can climb up and look at the bay from. It’s beautiful on any occasion but a bunch of us tripped and watched the sunrise from the top of the watch tower. It completely blew my mind.

I can't say conclusively, but Abraham had two sons

Esau became the father of the Edomites…“bad guys”

Esau literally means “Red” in Hebrew, so I’m assuming that’s where your book of useless facts’s fact is coming from.

That maybe Miller watched a lot of Balzers tape lately and studied the Blazers to sell himself to the Blazers? I’m cool with it and all. I just seems like he sold himself to the Blazers.

That´s a tough one, but I could do it.

Rudy wants a bigger role in a team that have Roy, Webster, Batum, Bayless, LA, Oden… And he could play better with a point guard he´d be used to play with. Now that Sergio is gone and he´s been injured everything seems to be more uphill. Ricky would fit right now.

Ricky won´t come to the NBA until 2011 or 2012. Now with Oden on the dock I think Blazers window doesn´t open until 2012-2013. By that time Ricky will be probably the best player coming into the NBA, with lot of experience under his belt, having played for the highest titles out of the NBA, and with a nice rookie contract.

that being true,

he’s shooting better. Although I think it has to do with him not being considered an true outside threat, and his defender leaves a bit more space, which translates in easier shots.

Space or no space, 48% is not bad.

w0rd

The line is a lil’ shorter, but that’s a very nice percentage.

19 for 40 isn’t a grip of shots, but last year and this year shows he can hit it.

Also...

He´s shot 22 three pointers in the last six consecutive games (ACB and Euroleague games) and he´s made 15 of them(68%). He still hasn´t a jump shot but he´s draining threes when he has an open look.

The 3 point line is at 22 feet 14 inches in FIBA this year, while the NBA is at 23 feet, 9 inches. It wasn´t a problem for Rudy and Navarro when they come to the NBA (it was at 20 feet 50 inches for the FIBA at that time), and it won´t be a problem for Ricky either.

I’d like to see if he keeps on making progress.

Frankly, I had a hard time watching him last year. This year not so much, he proved he puts in the work.
I’d give anything for him to not have tunnel vision.

Maybe. I like Bayless too and he´s also young.

By that time Bayless will have three or four years of NBA experience, while Ricky will have two or three years of experience as the starting PG in the best team out of the NBA and in the Spanish National Team, playing some Finals. Probably even.

I think Ricky will be a Nash type of player, with better defense, while Bayless will be more a Monta Ellis type. If both reach their ceiling I´d go with anyone. Even again.

As the team is constructed, maybe Ricky is a better fit, because he doen´t need the ball in his hands to be effective, and he makes his teammates better.

by amlmart1 on Jan 20, 2010 5:39 AM PST up reply actions  

If Ricky's body develops

And he can play the defense he appeared capable of playing in the Olympics, I don’t have much doubt he’ll be quite a bit better than Bayless.

How does Ricky’s body look this year?

by Mortimer on Jan 20, 2010 5:44 AM PST up reply actions  

I think you may have hit the nail on the head there.

How good is Bayless without the ball in his hands?
Good question, because I’m not really sure – just haven‘t paid attention to it.
There have been times when I thought, "what in the world are you doing", but then I’ve also seen him working hard without the ball. But I haven’t really focused on that aspect.

RIP Dan Fitzgerald

Who helped start the Zags on their run towards becoming a consistent national power.

Link: Fitzgerald dies; built Zags’ foundation

Quote:

Dan Fitzgerald, the coach who built Gonzaga into a national basketball power but resigned before the school began its current run of NCAA tournaments, has died at the age of 67.

" I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for Fitz. He’s had a huge impact on how we still run the program, how we work, how we prepare. What we do and what we achieve now has Fitz’s imprint all over it.
    " — Gonzaga coach Mark Few

Fitzgerald collapsed Tuesday evening in a restaurant in the suburb of Airway Heights. He was pronounced dead at Deaconness Medical Center in Spokane, according to a nursing supervisor at the hospital.

The cause of death was not immediately released.

Fitzgerald recruited John Stockton to campus, took the Bulldogs to their first NCAA tournament in 1995, and built the coaching staff of Mark Few, Dan Monson and Bill Grier that has put the Bulldogs in every NCAA tournament since the 1999 season.

Fitzgerald was 252-171 as coach from 1978 to 1997, and also served as athletic director.

“He was an unforgettable personality,” Stockton told The Spokesman-Review. “He was loyal — incredibly loyal — above all. He was there for anything and everything I’ve ever needed, ever asked for.”

oh to be young and having such questions again....

well, let me tell you a story, DS, that might be relevant. or not, who can tell?

I get a work order that a computer in the library is not working. I call the appropriate staff member to ask what the problem is. I am told that the monitor says there is no “hardware connect”. I am assured all the cables are plugged in. I ask if the monitor is turned on and am again answered in the affirmative. So I tell them I’ll come down to look at it and hang up. I go down there and do you know what the problem is? The monitor is not turned on. yeah…..

so is this real life? I say yes. As real as it can be for now. The question in my mind is “what composes real life?”

by DrivetheLane on Jan 20, 2010 9:07 AM PST up reply actions   1 recs

i've never seen the monitor display "no hardware connect"

I have seen them display a message saying “no signal” which is the message a monitor will give when the computer is not turned on but the monitor is. When i got there, the computer was turned off and so was the monitor. As is usually the case in this job, who knows what was actually going on when the computer/monitor “didn’t work”.

An all-white basketball league? Some seriously want it

No joke

Link:
Whites-Only Basketball League: All-American Basketball Alliance Bans Blacks, Foreigners

Quote:

A whites-only basketball league aims to launch in twelve cities this summer, according to a report in the Augusta Chronicle. The All-American Basketball Alliance would also ban players born outside the United States.

The league’s commissioner, Don “Moose” Lewis, claims that he doesn’t “hate anyone of color. But people of white, American-born citizens are in the minority now.” Thus, he says, the All-American Basketball Alliance would be “a league for white players to play fundamental basketball, which they like.”

The report includes additional shocking quotes from the commissioner:

    Lewis said he wants to emphasize fundamental basketball instead of “street-ball” played by “people of color.” …

    “Would you want to go to the game and worry about a player flipping you off or attacking you in the stands or grabbing their crotch?” he said. “That’s the culture today, and in a free country we should have the right to move ourselves in a better direction.”

Good luck on getting that. Too bad it’s not next year’s birthday, or you would also have a line of people willing to get you a beer.

The problem as I saw it

and what got me most worked up is a number of people told her that her question had insensitive/highly racial connotations and she kept going. I think one person directly told her she was implying certain races are genetically pre-disposed to crime and her response was “could be”. I think that type of response led to the harsh tone of my and others replies.

i remember the "could be" response

being towards something that was asking if she was really that ignorant, which is a completely inappropriate response. if someone had just explained why her question could be offensive without making any personal remarks about her (which I didn’t see happen) things probably would have died down. unfortunately, one of the sadder things around here is when someone puts their foot in thier mouth, there is no shortage of piling on. and the piling on does not come in the shape of edifying discussion.

Insensitivity is one thing

but, and again speaking only on my own behalf, her responses/posts led me to conclude she had a concrete racial point in mind she was trying to make or joke about, and the Yahoo reference was a straw man – basically I’ve got this idea, and here’s something I read that backs me up. That got me pretty riled up.

Again, the "could be" in response to

a poster telling her that her question (Is that why the crime rate in PDX is so low) was basically saying if there are a lot of black people in an area, their race alone and nothing else is going to lead to crime was what elicited my own harsher response. That was, imo, deliberate on her part and meant to fan some flames. Everybody is entitled to make their own conclusions, but that was mine

The following is set in the distant future....

I met a traveller from an antique, rain soaked land
Who said: "Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown
And wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed.
And on the pedestal these words appear:
`My name is Odenmandias, Center of Centers:
Look on my blocks, ye mighty, and despair!’

or that he worked too hard this summer as well, remember this is the first year he came into camp in shape… a stress fracture to the fifth metatarsal is not a jumping injury

Most fifth metatarsal fractures are caused by accidents that cannot be prevented. However it is important to wear proper fitting footwear and avoid playing or running on surfaces that are uneven.

neither of those point guards are better than Miller.

bottom line. I don’t think either of them would pick up the necessary slack from losing Miller and Haywood won’t get this team to round 2. The only way this is ok, in my mind, is if Przy (knock on wood) is actually gonna have his career ended over this injury. We don’t need 3 centers and renting Haywood at the expense of Miller does not make sense in the short or long term.

just remember miller is a short term rental as well. I don’t see any deal out there that guarantees getting to the second round, but in this case it would free up space to develop our young pg’s more for the future which is why I think this would get done over trading Blake

From Randy Hill via Fox Sports.
COACH OF THE YEAR: Scott Brooks, Oklahoma City Thunder (Quarter-pole pick … Brooks). Houston’s Rick Adelman is a popular choice, but it sometimes can be easier coaching a team of low-paid overachievers with an us-against-the-world mentality. Adelman still would be a fine choice, but Brooks has actually transformed a team of young hotshots into one of the league’s top defensive squads.

Durant's no longer a significant liability. He's not great on that end, but his length does bother players at times.

Westbrook and Sefalosha put a ton of pressure on their opposite numbers. They just play hard and bother the other team.

Collison, Ibaka and Thomas do a pretty good job defensively on the interior, Ibaka in particular in my opinion.

The restaurant has a limited season: the 2010 season, for example, will run from June 15 to December 20. Bookings for the next year are taken on a single day after the closing of the current season. The average cost of a meal is €250; the restaurant itself has operated at a loss since 2000, with operating profit coming from El Bulli-related books, and lectures from Adrià.

Keep the faith.

that they operate at a loss. that means the meal must be extremely reasonably priced. for that much i’d probably eat there once if i could get in. even those rabbit guts looked good.

Just had a very weird auction on ebay

The article description, ratings, etc. all looked good. But for some reason it constantly switched between offers made for the product and no offers made (starting price). The only explanation I have is that the seller was throwing out offers because he had set the starting price too low or wanted to make a private auction or something like that. I hope I didn’t end up with this, it got very weird at the end. I won’t transfer money for that if I did.

well the short story is the scene at the beginning when the monkeys see the first monolith, is when the evolution of man from the animals is sparked,

by an outside entity which could best be described as god. Not a denominational god, but rather one born of more universal principles. Immediately after it’s appearance the monkeys become aware and begin to use technology, in this case the bone. Fast forward to the next scene and we see a spaceship in the exact shape of the bone, symbolic of the breadth of our evolution but holding true to its origins, albeit not consciously. In this time man has progressed to the point where he has mastered his environment totally (in his mind) although he has still not moved past the violent tendencies which have driven his evolution. At this point the need for god in man’s world has subsided. This is when the new monolith appears as a reminder that man has essentially mastered nothing, and has just reached a minor understanding of his place in the universe. But he is arrogant and man’s arrogance even goes so far as to give his intelligence to a machine, and in doing this, man plays god. But he does not have the wisdom to give the machine proper reasoning, and in doing so, creates a dilemma in the machine that leads to his own destruction. The only one who is not destroyed is David Bowman, because he can see enough the arrogance of man, and is deemed evolved enough to make another step towards universal enlightenment, his rebirth is illustrated with the starbaby. I hope that comes across alright, it’s hard to read the whole thing in this tiny window.

I took some time to watch an episode of Cheers on my DVR

lol…I think you pretty much nailed for the most part got more out of it than I did (such as the sub-text about technology and the ongoing need for God). The God (or as Clarke envisioned it, an alien intelligence) found the hominids (proto-humans) suitable for an evolutionary nudge. The modern Humans found a second monolith on the moon …this was a signal to the alien intelligence that Humanity had evolved enough to leave their own planet and were ready for the next step in evolution. The mission to Jupiter followed the signal sent out by the 2nd monolith. The computer stuff on the trip (and the events that followed) was implied (in the novel) to be caused by the alien intelligence as method of getting David Bowman for the final step of the evolution …the star child. The subtext the you discerned about the interactions with HAL and technology general was pretty well done in the movie …but wasn’t mentioned in Clarke’s novel.

It should be noted that while Clarke and Kubrick outlined the story together, the screenplay and novel were written simultaneously..so they have some minor differences ….like which planet the Discovery was going to ….Saturn instead of Jupiter….(no biggy, right?)

interesting.

i liked it so much because it seemed to say that the politics and all that other stuff didn’t matter. for the soldiers, it was all about sticking with the guy next to you. Eric Bana delivers that line, which I think is the core of the film.

i can see what you mean though.

by DrivetheLane on Jan 20, 2010 9:47 PM PST up reply actions  

This was my take on the movie as well

the soldiers do what they’re ordered to do, and they have their fellow soldier’s backs. If anything, I saw the last scene or so as an anti-war commentary – the general tries to clean up the bloody mess on the ground floor of the field hospital, and he ends up making it worse. I saw that as an analogy for the US military presence in Somalia, but that’s just my read on it.

one time when i was in England i hung an

american flag outside the window of my flat. it got ripped down and stolen. i was upset about it. someone told me it’s not unexpected being as it’s a political statement. i said, no it’s not, i meant nothing political by it.

i now realize that just having it there was a statement. same thing with the movie. when you have a government institution in a movie, politics come in to play. perhaps not overtly, but they are there. even what blazeraddict is saying, the movie is making a political statement by being anti-war.

you are ruining one of my favorite aspects of that film

like Bana says: it doesn’t matter what the politics are, what other countries think, etc. all that matters is you and the guy next to you. I thought the movie illustrated that nicely

It also fails to mention that the american

military saw fit to fire missiles and cannon fire into a house where clan and religious leaders, who were not aligned with the main warlord, were meeting to discuss a peace proposal from the UN, slaughtering many of them. That’s just one of the things that precipitated the retaliation where 18 american soldiers were attacked and many, many Somalis killed.

A few observations on the "Point" guards tonight.

1. Tom in Hawaii hates awesome players cause they’re so awesome. Clearly he is jealous, or fearful of Andre Miller, cause he is awesome and we are lucky to have him, cause if we didn’t we wouldn’t have won that game, I don’t care who else we had once Roy left the game I was like “OH CRap” and then he was playing and I was like “SWEET”. And then we won, so in your Face TIH.
2. Jerry Bayless can run like the wind.
3. Steve Blake is great if you want someone to completely stop the offensive progression, say like pushing the pause button on the fast break, he is also really good at making the worst pass available on the floor ie; passing into a double team, or passing to the audience. He is also really good at not taking open shots, Nate must love this because it does not instantly result in a turnover, this also give Steve time to wind down the shot clock and then make a pass to someone who isn’t expecting it, or B can’t do anything with it, and then the shot clock expires while someone else has the ball and then Blake’s all “YOUR BAD!” He plays nate like he plays the basketball game like a suckerface.
4. Patty Mills was completely forgettable in tonights game, the experiment is over it’s time for the team to do the right thing and trade mills for Lebron James and Dwyane Wade and Chris Paul.

Macgruber movie red band trailer

filmdrunk sums it up nicely:

I’ll be honest, I thought making a movie out of the MacGruber sketches was a colossally stupid idea at first. But let one of the Lonely Island guys direct, throw in fat Val Kilmer as a villain named "Dieter von Cunth", and make it a hard-R rating, suddenly I’m cautiously optimistic. I also love Kristen Wiig whenever she’s not playing Gilly or the Target lady. .

Nate’s offense is definitely not for him.. I think he’d be way better off in an uptempo system or even on like the Pacers where they shoot a ton of 3s

but on the Knicks or Suns, where there is a ton of pick and roll action and 3s shot.. I think Rudy would be great fun to watch in a system like that where he is allowed to be creative with his play

I think he would be the most special in a system like Utah’s, where it has order and good halfcourt schemes with a bunch of cutting off picks, a system that relies on everyone being able to pass. They also run quite a bit, so he could use both of his main skill sets: breaking and offensive movement.

Houston was the absolute worst matchup for us in the playoffs last year. Plus, Portland probably wins that series if they don’t come out so terrified in Game 1 anyways.

A system that emphasizes no fastbreak points, very little interior play, and isolation is not hard to scheme against. Good coaches have given us fits already by simply sending a trap at Brandon when he’s above the three point line.

we were? Maybe he was getting more touches, but that was mostly Andre force-feeding him, and there was an article written by Jaynes the day after his injury talking about Oden not getting touches.

It is an offense that is possibly the most basic in the NBA, that is built around jump shots and isolation. Trying to build players around this scheme is insane to me.

You've missed nothing!

To quote Norsk yesterday, this is what you missed:

    * Greatest monsters
    * Tom hating Miller (and why?)
    * Something about chicken, cooking and cold feet
    * Women, am I right?
    * Some basketball/game discussions
    * Politics
    * Other random discussions and pictures

I think Norsk nailed it pretty well.

Shooting percentages as they apply to certain areas of the court.  Note who one of the best shooters in the NBA from the wing is.  Check out the guy dominating under the hoop as well.  Pretty impressive for a 6'9'' guy.
