Portland Trail Blazers (1977 NBA Champions)

[NFBuck]

Hard to imagine them being as bad as the Warriors. I rarely ever blame a loss on officiating but tonight was just horrible. At least it's over with.

I haven't seen them much this year, but in the past when they were competitive against the Cavs I found their flopping unbearable. Fortunately they were relatively bad actors and didn't get a lot of the calls. It becomes infinitately worse when the refs "bite" on that crap...see Pierce, Paul.

and for the adsud stat of the day....

Steve Blake has 14 assists after ONE quarter.

At this pace he will have 56 assists for the game...not too shaby.

Finished with 17. Brandon Roy almost had a triple-double despite sitting out the 4th. Blazers are now just 1.5 games behind Denver.

Blazers puttin the smackdown on the Spurs right now.

70-44 midway through the 3rd.

 

[OregonBuckeye]

Lost by 18 at Atlanta. This team is just terrible on the road. We can beat the daylights out of the Lakers and Spurs at home yet can lose to OKC by double-digits on the road. Frustrating. Something needs to change.

Is there a chance that Oden plays vs. the Cavs on Thursday? I might be at the game and I'd love to see him. I know he'll be traveling with the team, but I'm not sure how likely/unlikely it is that he'll play Thursday.

Anyone see the end of the 3rd Quarter vs. the Suns? Hell of a finish!

 

[OregonBuckeye]

Lamarcus is ready to take that next step and become an All-Star PF. I don't know what changed but he's been so much more aggressive since the all-star break. Maybe that's it. Not making the game.

Roy and Aldridge will be something special.

Oden's also really improving.

I'd love to see the Blazers knock the Lakers out of the playoffs.

 

[OregonBuckeye]

Like I said, Aldridge is ready to join the elite PF's. 31 and 16 through 3 quarters tonight. He's now attacking the paint instead of just shooting from the perimeter.

Blazers have the nucleus of a really good team for the next few years.

After the Zach Randolph era, thank-fucking-God.

 

[OregonBuckeye]

Another beatdown. 107-72 over OKC. 4 straight games won by 20 or more.

 

[OregonBuckeye]

Memphis leads 38-28 with 3 minutes left in the first half. This game has been Bru-tal.

Amazing second quarter. Incredible shot by Blake.
