Opening Games Disappointments and Surprises

Postby tee-pane on Fri Oct 31, 2008 6:25 am

From what I saw, Bargnani not getting anypoints is a disappointment, Greg Oden struggling and injured another one. Beasley having 9 pts and like 2 rebounds! Kevin Durant had only 12 pts and lost first game as a Thunder!

Surprises i had was that Chalmers had 17 pts and 8 assists and played longer than #2 pick beasley, Chalmers basically performed better than other rookies in his first game. Houston playing strong with new big three line up.

Oden's injury after his first game after missing a whole season for an injury is pretty sad. I hope he doesn't become an injury prone bust
Allen Iverson passing on family values:

A.I.: son, what you doing there?
A.I.'s son: practicing my math for my test tommorow
A.I: practice? practice? we talkin' 'bout practice. not the test - practice. we talkin' 'bout practice. not the test, not the test - practice.

Chalmers was one of my 4 picks that didn't get autopicked in my fantasy team so I was very happy

I think Oden's injury has to top the list, even if you're not a Blazers fan since once again we have to wait to see him matched up against other prominent big men in the league.

At least he'll have a backup career as a blogger or as an entertainer.
