    You mean sprinting? Because I don't think I've ever seen him sprint. Even in college.

    Anyway. If you gave Lopez a flagrant, only fair.

    On another unrelated note, the Portland crowd is impressive as usual.

    "I'm not going to allow my putative owner to answer that question, this is an NBA related press conference. Paul Tagliabue and Roger Goodell have collectively sung their praises of Tom and if uh ESPN has a problem with that tell Mr. Skipper to call me at my office."

    He's not going to run down the court when he's guarding the trail man.

    It's odd because we though Davis would be so much farther ahead than Rivers, but I'd say they are at about to the same level with respects to their Positions.

    Davis is playing like someone that doesn't care and certainly not the #1 pick.

    When this team is on offense, all you hear on the floor is "d'oh!"

    Hickson doesn't spend most of the game guarding Luke Babbitt.

    Too much negativity on here tonight! But I get it, this has been really embarrassing. This rebuild is going to take longer than any of us want it to, that's for sure, but remember guys, what we have on the court now is not a legitimate basketball team. You shouldn't expect much at all.

    Both were wrong, but the Batum one was awful.

    This team makes the same mistakes every game & they barely play hard most of the time . That's all about coaching & getting the guys ready to play every night. We lack talent , but with the talent we so have he doesn't work with at all..The team offensive philosophy is terrible . As a matter of fact what is our offensive philosophy ? Monty looks like he is coasting for next year
    Dell Demps PLEASE get us some scorers!

    Please stop with the Davis non-sense. When he runs hard he has a long stride so it doesn't look like he is. He ALWAYS runs like that.

    Secondly, Portland's frontline has athleticism and size. Bad matchup for him and Anderson. Guards getting beat like a drum don't help either.

    I feel like Monty is kind of in a hard position, arguing and fighting with himself over trying to win games and developing the young guys.

    That could be a reason for his weird rotations.

    I'm glad you also have kept some sanity and are not hitting the panic button on a 19 year old rookie coming off an injury.

  18. #193

    What talent do we have? As much as I love Davis, he's still a work in progress offensively.

    Anderson? I think we do a fine job with him.

    Besides those two? Rivers? Can't really complain there either.

    So last year we had a better team, and everyone wanted to tank. This year it looks like they are tanking and you want them to try?

    Glass half-empty approach I see.

    My thoughts exactly. He can play the 2 and help handle the ball.

    I'm just not impressed with Davis. We all thought he would come in an make a difference. He gets bullied on defense, and our Guards can't find him on Offense. IT's just a stinky situation.

    Our offense doesn't fit the personnel. I haven't seen a screen or screens for Anderson all game. Instead they make him go 1 on 1. Why?

    Say what you want, but i believe aminus massive dip in form has killed us. We dont have any production from SF anymore. I like to see vazquez get firey and attack like that. He needs to limit the **** ups and keep ballin

    I still think he could run faster, but I'd rather he take it easier on his feet. Bigs always have feet problems. The lighter he runs the better. But that's so far and away from being a problem, Im' not sure why its constantly coming up.
