Blazers broadcasters whining that Jeff Pendergraph > "Teego" Splitter

[objective]

Found this marginally amusing, and it's Spurs related.

Just started listening to an official Blazers podcast, and the show starts by the Blazer broadcasters talking about the NBA Preview magazines that are out, and one immediately whines about how that mags don't rate Jeff Pendergraph among the top 35 PFs in the NBA and specifically complains about "Teego" Splitter. Also complains that Derrick Favors shouldn't be ahead of Pendergraph.

:rolleyes:rolleyes:rolleyes:rolleyes

Those guys are such pathetic homers. Pend-whatever will be lucky to see 10+ minutes on any given night.

[SenorSpur]

Once again, the Blazers brass and their support staff engaging their favorite past-time - staring over into the urinal and comparing penis sizes with the rest of the NBA teams.

[TimmehC]

:lol Jail-Blazers

[Chieflion]

Jeff Pendergraph better than Favors. LMAO Blazers.

[Man In Black]

Good player but come on, All-Pac 10 1st team his senior year doesn't equate to All-Euroleague 1st team or Spanish League MVP of Splitter.

[timtonymanu]

Blazers broadcasters are the worst. Living out here in Portland now, they are very unreasonable.

[elemento]

lol Bowie and Oden

[EricB]

Its the yearly overrated the "depth" of the Blazers....

[Veterinarian]

:lol Jail-Blazers

Holy fuck bro, your smack is about four years behind.

[Leonard Curse]

did any on you guys watch the lakers training camp on nbatv? they asked the gen manager who he thought can compete with them he said "well i think the MAVS,PORT are going to be really tough this year and so will OKC & jazz." i was like huh???

So then phil comes and talks to the nbatv crew, and they ask him the same Q and he also says the mavs,utah then he says "we know san antonio is going to re-emerge as a top team in the W again and be tough with their new players".

which i didnt believe because after that he said "the suns are going to be tough,cp3 will always make his team good" guess he was just being respectful but i honestly think everyone considers us dead!

[spurs10]

Teddy Pendergrass? Is he with Blazers???

[Texas_Ranger]

I gues they also think he's better than Timmy. What a bunch of morons.

[Thompson]

Holy fuck bro, your smack is about four years behind.

If the Blazers trade for Carmello, he's actually a year or so ahead.

[SenorSpur]

Teddy Pendergrass? Is he with Blazers???

:lol Splendid reference!

TP was my man. And as a HUGE fan of his, I can appreciate the reference.

May he RIP!

[lefty]

Jeff is the best big man, Jerry, the best !!!

[Russ]

They had to replace Oden > Durant with something

[rjv]

jeff pendergraph was a singer in the early 80's, right? he opened for kenny loggins once i think.

[lefty]

No, he was a comedian


And the 1st man to REALLY walk on the moon

[Brazil]

lol pendergraph

lol better than favors

lol homers

lol picking oden over durant

lol jordan

[lefty]

lol jordan
Hey

Sam Bowie looked like a legit choice at the time





















:lmao

[Drachen]

Teddy Pendergrass?

[lefty]

Jen Telegraph ?

[Drachen]

Found this on a CNN article:

"Ashley Judd traveled to eastern Congo, her second time to the region, with John Prendergast of the Enough Project at the Center for American Progress. "

That guy??

[nickdaquick]

I'm glad a few of you guys say the Blazer annoucers are bad because I used to live in Oregon and completely agree. They're HUGE homers and think they have the best team every year. I know it's their job to report on the Blazers but lets be real. The only thing they do is give their fans false hope.

Pendegraph was good at ASU but not dominate. He also had Hardin on his team and they weren't the best team in a terrible PAC-10.

[lefty]

I can't wait for the 1st meeting between Portland and San Antonio

They have really built some hype :lol

Nothing really to laugh at here.

We breathe air, eat food, drink water, reproduce and the Blazers fail. Anything else would go against the natural order of things.

Tlong cares

[objective]

lol, just started listening to hour 2 of that show.

The hilarity continued.

The broadcasters have an interview with Pendergraph, where this time they whine to Pendergraph himself about Splitter and Favors being ranked ahead of him. Pendergraph didn't even know who Splitter was. One host then asked him that "does that make your blood boil and want to kill somebody? Especially these two guys, Splitter!?"

Pendergraph jokingly responds that he wants to beat up a lot of people, then hits on the real reason he's not ranked higher than those guys . . . "Politics". Magazine writers didn't personally know Pendergraph and they only cared about names and popularity.

Followed by him referring to Splitter and Favors with the question "What have you done? you haven't proven anything." And then Pendergraph boasted that he, the unrated guy, would be smacking them around.

Awesome.

He was the real deal! :toast

[spectator]

these the same guys who missed on jordan and durant because they found "better" players?

[TimmehC]

Rich Cho sez he's still unsure about 15th spot but that pendergraph will be released

They must be doing a payoff or some sort of injury settlement. He hurt his knee.

If he was any good they would have let him sit out the season and come back next year. Especially since they already cleared up a roster spot by sending Bayless out.

[Zelophehad]

Not that you ever said he was good. Just clarifying.

I get what you're saying. I'm not sure how it works in the NBA, but I know in the NFL, you can't release an injured player, even if their contract is non-guaranteed.

[D-rob fan]

Look's like he's out for the season.

lol, Portland writers.

[Thompson]

He did look pretty good the two or three times I saw him play. Spurs can pick him up and use him as the 'McDyess replacement' next year. Not gonna happen, but it would be a great 'screw you too' to the Blazers if it did and he panned out for us. :lol

lol, Portland writers.

Yup, just waived! :lmao

Looking forward to Teego dropping a 12/8/2 on those announcers when he visits Portland.

They may have been right, guy seems to have a lot more moves.

this, tbh :lol

[SenorSpur]

He was the real deal! :toast

Now that the Spurs have signed both Splitter and Pendergraph, it appears that it's time for the Blazers to simply "let it go, looks like another love T.K.O." :lol

[unforeseen]

:lol Bowie over MJ

That is all...

portland: where great potential ends up in the OR!!!!

if i were a draft prospect, i would try any means necessary to make sure i didn't end up on that team. If I am Lillard, I get the hell out of there the minute my rookie contract is done.....before the curse of the brokedown knee gets him too.

[Leetonidas]

About to crash like teddy pendergrass, mama said a hard head make a tender ass

[cd98]

I remember Pendergraph in his first year in Portland. He had solid games against the Spurs and was making a name and case for himself in the league. Unfortunately, he suffered the Blazer curse and injured his knee. Not sure he has shown the same promise since, but the Spurs are surely betting they can retap what he did earlier in his career.

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

I've lived in Eugene my entire life, I hate watching Spurs game on the Blazers network. I've never heard bigger whiners about officiating on any sports network. They seriously sometimes act as if Duncan is only good because of reffing help.
