Blazers at Lakers Game Thread 2/20/12

Defilitely. I also like Nolan's game. He's learning the game.

I'm sure you're called other things if that matters.

Your wife called me "God" last night.

Oh wait, you aren't HCP. Never mind.

I know it's only garbage time, but I like Eliot's game. Athletic to the rim, long-armed and willing on defense, seems to have range on his shot and best of all when he decides to shoot he just shoots instead of pounding the air out of the ball while the defense rotates and gets set.

Hopefully, we'll get to see more of Elliot tomorrow night since Nate played our starters so much in a blow-out loss tonight.

 

[Nikolokolus]

So I don't really remember anybody mentioning it, but did it seem like Felton got an awfully quick hook in favor of Jamal tonight? Granted he was on the floor and the team wasn't getting shit done in the first, but you'd think that after a pretty good game against the Hawks the other night, he'd give him a little more leash and maybe work out his confidence issues. This feels like one step forward, two steps back.

Pretty sick line from Batum. 18pts, 6rebs, 5asts, 2stls, 4blks, but he did have 5 turns in 36 mins.

 

[KingSpeed]

Gotta admit it's pretty amazing we scored 92. Thank you Blazers for not losing by 50.

Yeah ... wow. I mean you really showed me didn't you? Devastating burn right there, just devastating ...

Stop going to games ... no seriously!!!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Would you feel better if I changed it so he was saying it to me?

 

[Nikolokolus]

Well I don't feel insulted, I just feel badly for him ... being that unfunny is punishment enough.

Someone who takes these games too seriously = you. At least tonight. Lighten up, Francis. Beer time!

You're pretty late I see. Go back and listen to the dulcet tones of Ween back on page 3 or thereabouts ...

He is so mediocre.

Dude. Stay the fuck away from Blazer games.

 

[oldmangrouch]

A 37-4 run.

Lowest scoring quarter in team history.

The fact I can no longer even care about this Bull Dada is a bad sign.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Well, at least we learned that spotting the home team a 37-7 lead is not a good strategy. Live and learn, right?

 

[B-Roy]

I literally fell asleep right before and missed this game. Was pissed till I saw the score.

Good game to miss huh?

 

[THE HCP]

Shitty game! Nic came to play at least. Don't mind the T.O.s as long as he fills the stat sheet the way he did!

After the 1st quarter, everyone knew it was over. Heck, even after the first 5 minutes of the first quarter.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

He is so mediocre.

Which is like a breath of fresh air after Felton and Crawford.

 

[illmatic99]

@ChrisBHaynes

I asked LaMarcus Aldridge if this team needed a mtg: "It's enough talking. That's all we've done. It's going to have to be some action."

 

[BlazerCaravan]

So, I had to leave a dookie right after the game started. It was 3-0 Portland. By the time I get out and look at the score, it's 10-3 LA. It was over then. I should have held it.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

@ChrisBHaynes

I heart LA.

Nah, your dookie was probably more interesting than that period of the game, as the Blazers just bricked around 7 shots in a row, all jumpers. No driving into the lane.

I'm just disappointed I went with "Brickhouse" instead of Pink Floyd's "The Wall" for my musical selection at that point.

I'm more pissed that I left the BAND OF BROTHERS marathon on Spike to watch this sorry excuse for a game.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

So, after the pep talk by his coach and having one decent game to boost his confidence, Felton comes out and makes maybe the worst four turnovers I have seen in one game! He played with Gerald Wallace for years and yet apparently thought he would be parked on the three point line on a fast break??!!

 

[MickZagger]

Reggie Miller was pointing out how horrible the Blazers were coming out a timeout.

 

[B-Roy]

I didn't see the game, so how was Batum? 5 assists but 5 TOs, was he given more ballhandling duties?

 

[Mediocre Man]

Sadly teams with 30 point leads after the first 2 minutes of the game tend to let up. Maybe a few more embarrassing losses will actually force the Blazers to re-evaluate their infatuation with Mr Sonic
