Blazers at Lakers Game Thread 3/20/11

It definitely won't surprise me if the lakers step it up in the 2nd half. Hopefully, we are able to respond

The Lakers do a lot of things well, and one of them is making runs when they are down. We're definitely going to have to keep the pressure on.

 

[TripTango]

Crash, baby. That is all.

 

[Darkwebs]

Gerald! Incredible hustle

 

[Darkwebs]

Batum is suddenly ice cold. Someone else may have to carry us offensively.

 

[Darkwebs]

Dre passes Cousy on the assist list. Congrats!

 

[Darkwebs]

Wes with some superb D there on Kobe.

 

[Darkwebs]

What a dime by nic to crash

What a dime by nic to crash

I love how Wallace makes himself available and is always ready to receive a pass. He really makes sure he's in good position. It's awesome to see!

 

[BengalDuck]

I'm still not sure we'll pull this out with our tired legs but it sure seems like we've played merely average and are 9 up on the road vs. LA... pretty good

 

[Darkwebs]

Our D and rebounding is getting the job done so far.

Yup -- and he keeps getting better as the team learns how to use him. Good health is all I ask...

 

[BengalDuck]

This would be a blowout if matthews or batum could hit a three this half.

 

[Darkwebs]

Premature ejaculation by the ref there

 

[TripTango]

Here comes that run...

 

[TripTango]

HUGE shot by Batum.

 

[Darkwebs]

Here is the laker run
Batum says in yo face to break the run

 

[Darkwebs]

Another buzzer beating air by Blake

 

[Darkwebs]

Roy has been bad tonight on both ends

 

[TripTango]

Ouch.

 

[TripTango]

4-point game now.

 

[Darkwebs]

Crash crashes his way to the rim!
Barnes hits the half court shot. Are u kidding me?!

 

[Kaydow]

Matt Barnes from half court . . . Shades of Brian Shaw. Why?????

 

[Darkwebs]

That half court prayer doesn't bode well for us if that's a harbinger for things to come

 

[Darkwebs]

Seems like Roy's shot is flatter than usual. He has been bricking nearly everything tonight

 

[BlazerBeav]

So many chances to build the lead - come on Blazers, take advantage!

Tired legs ---> flat shots

 

[Darkwebs]

Rudy 3!

good point. Back to back situation with Roy's knees

Some nice creation by Roy to set up Camby for FTs
