A Place To Talk About Giants Baseball

Giants Offense Diagnosed with Koro

Posted in Uncategorized by Flavor on May 11, 2016

Maybe that’s a little rough but I’m a damn Dr. and that’s my diagnosis.

And sorry, I refuse to believe that the absence of Angel Pagan has led to this limp offense. Because if true, we are in huge trouble this year. Crazy Horse and his slap hitting ways is not the path to a successful offense.

The culprits are littered up and down the line up with Posey being the usual worst offender. Like it or not, he gets paid coin for a reason. He can’t just be good when everyone else is good. Maybe it’s tough for him to get any rhythm going with all the rest he’s forced to take…..

After getting shut down by 2 middling AL starters we get our shot at a 3rd today. Maybe Bum just says “fuck ya’ll” and just does it himself…….

    His first year, Barnes was amazing. He’s been very inconsistent since. He did the Warriors a favor not signing ghat deal.

  2. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:04 pm

    Wow. All hand on Thompson.

  3. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:05 pm

    Agree about Curry, he’s clearly still rusty. He’s had some good looks in the first half. The slow starts have to be shored up moving into the next round. Either of those teams gives the W’s problems. I’m actually hoping SA wins, but I don’t think it happens.

    • alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:10 pm

      Curry is just bored he does all his damage in OT..

  4. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:05 pm

    Fucking Latrell. That ad is surreal.

  5. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:07 pm

    Frankly, Portland worried me more than either. We match up well vs OKC, and SA we can take even easier.

  6. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:28 pm

    That shit was sloppy right there. Warriors need to tighten it up. Festus having a nice game.

    And holy shit! I almost needed a triple-bypass after that game this afternoon. If the Giants left RISP one more time, I was going to start throwing large=, heavy, sharp objects.

    The Warriors are closing it out tonight.

  7. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:30 pm

    And 3!

  8. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:30 pm

    Fuck losing bogut is going to hurt

    • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:30 pm

      What!? I had to step away for a bit. WTF happened with Bogut?

  9. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:31 pm

    WTF is a “right adductor strain?” That is what they are listing for Bogut…

    • unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:33 pm

      It’s next to the left adductor.

      • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:34 pm

        Fucking groin injury…not good.

  10. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:32 pm

    Portland is a young team and it shows.

    Did I read that right? 29 LOB today? Gotta be the pitching…….

    • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:34 pm

      Yeah, that fucking pitching has been atrocious of late…everyone is pointing at the lame-assed bats, but…

    • zumiee's avatar zumiee said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:35 pm

      16 LOB, in a 13 inning game.

  11. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:33 pm

    Fuck! Not good…

    Good call for a time out there.

  13. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:43 pm

    Varejou was a great pick-up…

  14. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:51 pm

    He has his moments. Hope green isn’t too hurt. Didn’t look bad but basketball and ankles…….

    • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:52 pm

      For an off-the-bench guy, I like his energy.

  15. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:52 pm

    Zumiee – what can you tell me about the Freight and Salvage in Berkeley? I know you go there a lot. There is an artist coming there in June that I really want to see.

    • zumiee's avatar zumiee said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:07 pm

      Great venue. It’s usually general admission, first come/first served. People start lining up fairly early, depending on the artist. But not really a bad seat in the house, IMO. Comfortable chairs. A theater-type venue where people are hugely respectful of the performers and don’t talk during the songs. There are drinks and snacks for purchase but not meals. It’s near Shattuck which has a lot of places to eat. There’s a parking garage very close. I love this venue.

      • zumiee's avatar zumiee said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:10 pm

        And near Half-priced Books; I love that bookstore.

  16. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:54 pm

    Livingston really needs to look for that shot more.

  17. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:55 pm

    Livingston has a lot of turnovers

  18. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 9:59 pm

    Give me Mo Mo!

  19. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:00 pm

    Green hurt himself?

    • unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:01 pm

      Tweaked his ankle on a drive

    • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:01 pm

      I missed that….Charlie said something to that effect. If so, hope it is nothing serious. Bogut, with the strained groin, will be out for a while. Could be done for the year depending on the extent of the pull/strain.

  20. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:01 pm

    Jesus. Crabbe levels Barbosa with his leg and the refs finally swallow their whistles?.

    • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:02 pm

      Need to take Crabbe out. That fucker has had too many hot streaks. Someone needs to put a body on him, hard. Nothing dirty…just to get his attention…

  21. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:04 pm

    I’m still trying to figure out who the hell Crabbe is. The fucker has been channeling Oscar Robinson all series. He just ain’t that good.

  22. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:04 pm

    Livingston is having a weird game

  23. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:04 pm

    Warriors are smelling blood…

  24. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:05 pm

    I’ll take Livingston with his flaws. Sweet finger roll by Steph!

    • Lurker John's avatar Lurker John said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:07 pm

      He’s quietly had a great year. Very good player who gets lost in the Steph/Klay shuffle.

      • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:09 pm

        He is great at what he does…coming off the bench. I think he is invaluable.

      • Lurker John's avatar Lurker John said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:11 pm

        And when I mean lost in the shuffle, I mean from a media standpoint. The W’s are very aware of his value to the team.

  25. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:06 pm

    I will not be sorry to see Damian Lillard go. The dude is a goddamn handful. He’s been torching the Dubs for 5 straight games.

  26. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:07 pm

    No shit about Crabbe. He’s had a hell of a series. That team will be scary when they get a little more seasoning.

    • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:10 pm

      Yep…they are a team on the rise. But, so are the Warriors. Fuck, our guys are all fairly young (well, the nucleus is). With Kerr at the helm, our Warriors should be good for a while…

  27. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:09 pm

    And there is some of the lock-down D!

  28. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:11 pm

    The officiating has sucked this series. Very inconsistent, IMO. Hell, there have been good stretches when the refs swallow the whistles, and then you get this type of shenanigans. Just give me some fucking consistency!

  29. zumiee's avatar zumiee said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:13 pm

    Chi, I answered your Freight and Salvage question. You’ll have to scroll back a ways for it.

    • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:16 pm

      Thanks, Zume. I will probably just give you a call to get the complete low-down.

  30. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:13 pm

    Barnes gets bumped on the layup, no call. Draining gets ball and the foul.

  31. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:14 pm

    Why do they keep feeding Barnes?! FUCK.

  32. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:15 pm

    Warriors are getting too cute

  33. zumiee's avatar zumiee said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:15 pm

    Puig Ks to end it; Dodgers lose.
    Giants are tied for first place again!

  34. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:16 pm

    Green taking on the ref, Ken Mauer, with a extra love slap, and drawing blood,lucky he didn’t get Teed up for that one..

  35. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:16 pm

    Iggy!

  36. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:16 pm

    That’s the big hole in Curry’s game, no D. Fucking McCollum walked right past him to the goal.

    • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:18 pm

      I don’t know. He is still not 100%. Not too many that are even remotely close to Curry as a scoring threat that plays great D. He has his moments and can play hold his own defensively. He is no slouch, iMO.

  37. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:16 pm

    Holy Shit! Curry is fucking unreal!

  38. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:18 pm

    The fucking officials are a goddamn joke. How many Warriors have gotten clubbed in this series with no call. Fuck.

    • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:20 pm

      Oh, they have been so consistent…consistently inconsistent. Fuck them…Warriors just need to close it out, NOW!

  39. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:19 pm

    Blazers won’t go away, great game!
    But in the end this bitch is ours!!

  40. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:19 pm

    Curry’s a decent defender. It certainly isn’t a big hole in his game.

    • chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:22 pm

      Agree. No disrespect LJ, but I agree…not a lot of holes in his D. He isn’t great, but he holds his own.

    • Lurker John's avatar Lurker John said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:24 pm

      I don’t know, letting a guy walk right around you to the basket and fouling him isn’t good at all. You foul him so he doesn’t score. I’ll just say that it’s something he could improve.

  41. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:20 pm

    The refs have swallowed their whistles on 3 fouls on lay ups.

  42. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:23 pm

    Take the fucking layup! Too fucking cute

  43. snarkk's avatar snarkk said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:23 pm

    Generally I think NBA officials suck. Not only missed and inconsistent calls, but pandering to certain players, and letting others get hammered with no calls. It’s been that way for years. The way Harden gets calls is an absolute joke. And Donaghy was an only, rogue ref. Riiiiiiight…

  44. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:23 pm

    WTF…I think he may have just carried the fucking ball there. The refs are unreal.

  45. snarkk's avatar snarkk said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:24 pm

    About time for Barnes to make his usual big 3 ball in the game, after 4 quarters of yawn…

  46. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:25 pm

    Lillard took 4.5 step to the basket earlier and they didn’t call it.

    • snarkk's avatar snarkk said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:26 pm

      There is no traveling in the NBA unless you’re on a skateboard…

    Such bullshit! Thompson is standing STRAIGHT UP, arms straight up…

    • unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:32 pm

  62. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:32 pm

    Really stupid play by Klay. You don’t leave your feet there, EVER.

  63. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:33 pm

    NO STUPID FOULS!

  65. chipower9's avatar chipower9 said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:34 pm

    I agree…after watching it again, definitely a bone-head move by Klay. Hey, lock-down D here, and no stupid ass fouls…

  66. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck said, on May 11, 2016 at 10:34 pm

    Jesus. And they almost blew the inbounds. Curry seals it.
