tough loss to see, but i see it more off an off-night bad matchup sort of thing. I expect a W tomorrow night to get back on a roll... good to see Twill out there, good court vision. I really hope we can cash in some of these guys for upgrades. I love the collection of talent, but we can't play everyone and we're just wasting talent because of it. If we can't get a superstar, hopefully we can upgrade 2 positions instead.
I say you guys will hate Twill by the trade deadline since it only took one bad game for you to hate JHill with all the highlights and cheers that have been put up on this site.
people are overreacting yeah Brooks sucked tonight but he's probably about 80% after that injury... with that being said he should not have played the amount of minutes he did tonight he was hurting the team more than he was helping
bad loss...AB got destroyed by a scrub..no one could buy a shot...the only upside is we got to see T-Will play. i have to admit that this guy can ball...if he can develop his Jumpers then he would be a solid player..
We could have really used Chuck Hayes in this game. I was really disappointed in Jordan Hill and Aaron Brooks. The rest of the starters played like trash as well.
I thought you guys wanted this team to get younger? So why do you want to ship Bud out and not Battier? Have T-Will start and Bud off the bench!
Ugh... this is the kind of game that makes me want to tear out my hair (if I had any), wail, and beat up somebody.
Well I have to say if one of our PG's had to be traded, I would say Aaron. The guy's ego is too big for his own good and when he's embarrased on defense, his frustrations seeps into the offense in the form of horrible shot selection, dribbling into double teams, jumping into the air without a plan on what to do with the ball, etc, etc. Anyhoo, I'm glad T-Will was finally unleashed onto the general populace, and he looked pretty dang good with his vision of the court. His jumper (even though he made one) still looks kinda spotty but overall, I would love to have him out on the floor with either the first or second unit with time being taken from bud and lee. And since we just got destroyed by a team without its best player thats fighting for the same playoff spot as us, I've lost a bit of hope but not all. Our best low post defender was gone and he would have certainly helped in this game. There really were no bright spots in this game other than the fact that we finally saw Terrence Williams (who looks eerily like Jermaine Taylor when you watch the game on your computer) play and what hes capable of and its given me a bit of optimism for the future of our team.
That was surprisingly one-sided. Both the starters and the bench got thoroughly outplayed. Gotta give credit to the Blazers for playing great hustling defense. And I'm surprised by how well Camby plays the high post. He would have been perfect for Adelman's offense.
