The Blazers will play hard, and well for three quarters, then do the same thing they've done for their entire careers - pull back and wait for someone else to take over down the stretch, but there's no one there. And then they will lose.
I think wallace does have the most talent maybe other than Webber or Kemp which just goes to show you how sad it is that he's wasting so much of it and Kemp is wasting all of it. Eddie unlike sheed is gonna be a superstar with that kinda talent. And by the way Pippen is still a biiiiaaaaatchhh!
Eddie a superstar, he might be something special in a couple of years but to say he is going to be better then Wallace is just pure foolishness. If anything he maybe a better defender then Wallace but his offense is never going to rise to the level at which Wallace plays. To be able to hit 3 pointers with the best of them and to be unstoppable down low is something Griffin will never achieve. Griffin is great at blocking shots but he often has his shot thrown back in his face. At best Griffin will be a bit better version then Garnett but to say that he will be as good as Wallace or even better is just plain silly.
Wallace is good, but he is dumb as bricks. He still almost got ejected last night in the 4th quarter when they were up by 40 gazillion, complaining about a no foul call. Even the Blazers announcer (that guy who does national tv sometimes) commented on how dumb Wallace was being.
Yeah you have a point he is over emotional but its just his heart and his love for the game. Hes a great competitor, he just gets upset when the ref misses a call even if the game was a blowout.
Hey thats why I'm not the one trash talking about the Rockets you freakin idiot. I never said Wallace's "talent" is less then that of Garnett or Duncan or Webber. I probably like Wallace more then any of the other 4's anyways. But the point is that talent alone does not make a player great. Remember Rider (the other JailBlazer)? He probably has enough talent to be a top 5 shooting guard in the league. But he is a freakin moron! Wallace is awesome, but the man is dumber then you. I wish the Blazers would actually beat the damn Lakers, but they are nothing but a bunch of p*****s come playoff time. Mommy! I dont want the ball! Who wants the balll! I am so scareeed!
wait ar you really that stupid? . wallace is a nice player, but not even close to garnett, webber, duncan, nowitzki. saying griffin will be better than garnett, is about the same if you said, griffin will be the best forward in the nba, for years to come. when i read your posts i first thought you were kiddin, but you really think wallace is better than garnett,webber, duncan, nowitzki. if that is true, i think you have never watched any nba game. and any discusion with you is useless
scottie.... 11 pts a game.. 6 assists a game. 5. 3 rebounds a game. 2.84 turnovers... 41.6% shooting... how much is he making.. 12-13 mil a year??
Is that really a trick question? He is much more stupider then you and I could imagine. If Eddie turns out to be a better version of Garnett, then I am throwing a party at my house and everyone is invited.
And look at the ****ing Wolves, what the **** is happening to them, Garnett is choking come clutch time. In that place Wallace would be carrying his team, just because my opinion is different from yours and right doesn't make it wrong. I watch basketball quite frequently and I just simply don't see in all the other power forwards what I see in Wallace. Sure some of them can play outisde, some can play inside but not one of them blends outside play and inside play as well as Wallace. I mean just because Garnett dominates the Rockets and he may appear like a superstar against them doesn't make him one. I've evaluated his game and he's no Wallace plain and simple. And if you guys can't see that then, well I guess the best way to put it, just wait for playoff time and I shall be vindicated people.
Wallace probably does have as much talent if not more than any other pf in the league - Pipdady is right when he talks about Rasheed's ability to blend the inside and outside... few pf's if any can match Wallace in that department. The Blazers are a talented team and if they can get their act together in the <b>4th quarter</b>, they can make some serious noise. There's no denying the talent of the Blazers and we'll see if this winning streak actually translates into come playoff wins soon.
this is the first inteligent thing you've sayd this thread. we will see. he does what he did with the rockets, make 1 point per million
Dallas has very poor man to man D, which means they must have good help/rotational D, which they are lacking. All of this equates to having a piss poor defense that will kill them in the 2nd round of the playoffs again.
Once again the Trailblazers have won, thats 15 outta 16 for the red hot surging Blazers. The momentum continues to build, lets just hope that it will take them all the way through the playoffs.
You have to love reading these mindless fans who suddenly grow a sack when their team breaks off a decent winning streak. Remember last season when the Rockets went on that 16-4 stretch? Yeah, we were the best team in the league... Get some humility, Blazerfan. You have to realize at this point that the play of the Blazers towards the beginning of the season is MUCH closer to what the guys will give you night in and night out than what they have done the last 16 or so. Sure, the team has talent, but they are nowhere near as good as they are playing now. And even if they pass Minnesota (which will be just as much the TWolves fault as the Blazers, Minnesota is struggling right now), the Blazers will pull their traditional disappearing act int he playoffs, and they will be led by the biggest disappearing act of all time, Scottie Quitten. Come and talk you trash after the playoffs are over. We will be glad to discuss your team's early exit.
