ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Blazers 5/2/2014 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 6)

Mchale has been putting Parson on opposing PGs in regular seasons.. IE Chris Paul. This is not the first time Mchale doing this....what makes it worse is that this NEVER worked in regular season

 

I was one of those, thought he was a diva. But he did what he had to do, he was mature and had the right attitude, he's a keeper.

 

He's put Parsons on elite PG's before, I wouldn't put it past him to do it again.

 

Yep was just in shock last night but this when I opened the sports section. That's when it hit me. I think I teared up for Dwight most of all.


I just remember him in the workout room on a Saturday night during All Star weekend. Committed. So glad we have Superman !

 

You know we have all seen ridiculous stuff in the NBA. Fisher .6 shot jumps out, cater just made another one with 1.7 on the clock. Roy's shot was under JVG, right? We have biatch and moan about Rick A inability to defend the last 3 as well. BUT this one I feel different, because Lillard was so wide open and the mistake is glaring. Because this has happened many times in the regular season. Because during this series, there were so many times we lost Lillard on picks. So there is no excuse or insisting that was just a great shot by Lillard. Given, how hard wide open he was and they had 5 seconds to inbound, that was a hight percentage shot for Lillard.

 

Lin WTF?
WTF?!

 

Lin is a loser what do you expect.

 

It feels worse today... ... ...

 

I know I'm so sad ..

 

You'd think fans of a team that has been just as devastated by injuries as Portland would stop inviting bad karma

 

Are you serious? Wtf lin

 

A loser? I am one of the strongest supporters in getting Jeremy off the Rockets, but a loser he is not. Undrafted, and now making 15 million next year.

The exact opposite of a loser.

So what if he goes out and parties, it just might be his way of coping with the loss.

Ever been dumped by the love of your life? Did you stay in and sulk or go out and move on?

 

Good for him. He knows he's gone from the Rockets, so why not go have fun.

 

Looks like Canaan's next to him in the black. Calm down. I seriously doubt he was partying with Lillard.

 

This video gets me so mad with Bev. He had Lillard fronted first. Then why switch with Parsons? And worst, he went underneath Mo William allowing Lillard a free lane to dash for the ball. Why was he that dumb? He should know that there is no wait Portland was going to throw the ball across the court to their area. The only way to have time for a shot is to receive the ball close to the guy on the sideline, which means a mad dash by someone towards the sideline guy. You need to block that option. But by Bev switching with the slower Parsons who is on the wrong side of Dillard, as well as Bev moved away from the side of the dashing lane, we had no chance to contest this shot. BAD decision by Bev. Bev's stupid move actually costs us the game.

 

Ok he is not a competitive championship player.

 

Now that, we can agree on.

 

That's just it: with Lin in, the defensive setup would have been different. Lin is like a coach out there.

 

If Lin had been in and not Bev, we wouldn't have this bone-headed move by Bev to switch with Parsons the last moment before Lillard dash for the ball. See if for yourself how stupid it was that Bev who had fronted Lillard from the dashing lane and then switched with Parsons the last moment. I like Bev's defense in reg season, but this mistake is just too dumb to ignore.

BAD decision by Bev. Bev's stupid move actually costs us the game.

 

Famous last words. Lin has a LONG history of proving his detractors wrong.
