Cisco Kid
Blazer Fan here. Not understanding why FG isn't getting more P.T? It would seem to me he is one of your better players, and maybe one of the few who can play "D". What is going on down in Sactown? Still some lingering injury rust?? The Kings actually remind me a lot of Portland from 3 years ago. Keep the faith- there is hope! You will probably have turned over 3/4 of the roster by then. Thompson looks like a keeper (and a pleasant suprise to some). Tough interior defense will be required to afford the luxury of mild outside pressure (KMart). Luck in the lottery will go a long way.
Good Luck. The Kings remind me of P-Town, in that we're both the only show in town. Keep your chin up, applaud the positive and the good effort, don't hesitate to chastise the underachieving efforts, and never accept less than the best from the players, coaches, and management. Fans CAN sway what happens to a large degree.
BTW, I did the bright purple uni's.. (and someone tell Vlade to go on Nutrisystem!)

Come back with your mock optimism
when Portland does damage in the playoffs. This is no pity party.
And for pete’s sake… “mild outside pressure”? What are you? A fortune cookie?

don't like getting advice
from a team which hasn’t been to the playoffs since the start of this millennium. It’s as sensible as a Laker fan posting “haha, you guys suck.”
The post claims to be concerned with Cisco, but there’s only two sentences about him with little explanation of why the author cares. Then he segways into his gloat session. Then he gives me advice on being a fan… like dude, if I’m on this website, then that means I’m a fan. So take your advice and shove it.
Rudeness.

He was asking why Garcia doesn't get more playing time.

why?
two questions, then two paragraphs of crap unrelated to the original questions.

exactly
but the point of the limit is to prevent stupid things from being posted.
put two and two together. let’s make 4.

Your angry sarcasm is special
You must only use this power for good, kemo sabe.

mind you,
that’s the only thing this guy’s ever posted. He’s not on BE.
I’m not insulting all Portland fans. This guy’s just not all there. Your defense of him makes me wanna throw you in the same loop, especially with some of the other stuff you posted.

Not to be a prick
But I don’t understand why this was posted.

Attempting to answer
27 minutes per game off the bench has got to up there for 6th men, though I have not really checked (discountung “6th men” like Manu).
That said, his minutes would be even greater had he not been hobbling for most of the season.
He’s not as good as Martin, so he doesn’t get the start at the 2.
He may or may not be better than Salmons at the 3, but Salmons is worthless off the bench, so there you go.
And while he logs some time at the point, he’s not really a point guard.

When you're paying youre 6th man (and I know teams like Dallas are paying Jason Terry more)
Mid Level money, he better be getting minutes. Cisco is one of those glue players, that on a winning team is appreciated, and on a losing team, sort of falls by the wayside. Petrie, for one, and I’m glad, does know this.

Starting Point?
I rather see Cisco start at point until we make a trade.
Udrih backup PG,BJacks at backup SG,then give Green some MINS at SF!
I'd rather see Donte get mins
However, if he isn’t giving effort defensively, I find it difficult to believe that he would get much out of them.

I am the stone that the builder refused
I am the visual
The inspiration that makes ladies sing the blues
I am the spark that makes your idea bright
The same spark that lights the dark so that you can know your left from your right
I am the ballot in the box, the bullet in the gun
The inner glow
That let's you know to call your brothers son
The story has just begun
The promiser was to come
And I'm a remain a soulja 'til the war is won.
Huey strait pimpin yo!
Difference is that Donte may not have a place in the league with that type of mentality
As it is, it’s hard to imagine any team willingly signing MIller with the effort he’s currently giving. Although, it’s hard to imagine Brad playing that poorly when he’s into the game.

214 has it
with Pooks added point that on a winning team (even marginally) Cisco would probably be one of the fan favorites (to expand).
Hell, he’s that now.
So imitate the action of the tiger!
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood,
Disguise fair nature with hard-favoured rage.
- lend the eye a terrible aspect,
Now set the teeth....and teach them how to war.

Stars aren't the only ingredient to winning a championship
Everyone buying into a shared commitment is part of that, and how your role players do that is quintessential to doing so.

Ouch!
First dude to post was all over me like a Bum on a sandwich! So let me address the “concerns” of that guy, who musta had a bowl of cranky for breakfast!
1. No gloating whatsoever. Indeed, we HAVE NOT made playoffs in a long time. Wouldn’t gloat even if we had..
2. Garcia is on a team of mine, and seemed to be doing better last year. Yeah, I know, injury + rust this year, but he only got like 13 minutes the other night.
3. Have been reading Blazers Edge for awhile;however, just signed up last night to post on SB Nation, and as it turns out, SacTown Royalty is where I started. Will definitely be posting there in the future. Sorry to have inflamed you, but as an admitted outsider, I think I may have a point. The Kings biggest issue from what I can tell is no defense, on the ball pressure, etc. Seems like Garcia could help there. There’s seems to be plenty of guys who can put the ball in hopper..
4. I think Pookeys comment on being “a glue player” makes the most sense. Guess we’ll just see how it all plays out.
Gotta go. Big game against LeBron tonight at the RG!
Sign up for Bedge
That’s probably more your cup of jungle.
