Blazers/Lakers 4/11 Game Thread

[BlazerCaravan]

lol. Sounds painful. He banged knees with Artest, I believe. Went to the locker room.

He'll be back, unless we're down 20 before he can get back to the bench.

Roy......

w/e, take another big game off

 

[chris_in_pdx]

Fuck the NBA. Jesus Christ, these games are so goddamn predictable. I don't know why I even allow myself the pain of hoping any different.

What's the old saying? Those who do the same things over and over and expect different results are by definition insane.

 

[julius]

You'll win, and then get run over by a car with the way you predict.

Hey, even MORE famous people...well, Neil Diamond was famous...watch Laker games! Thanks ABC!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Perfect game!!

Roy faking injury.

LMA pretending to be soft.

Rudy acting like he's in a shooting slump.

The Lakers are soooooo going to over look us in our first round series against them.

A+ for execution of the "The Plan" to crush the Lakers in the first round of the playoffs!

They're never going to see this coming.

 

[craigehlo]

The Lakers aren't breaking a sweat against this defense.

 

[Mediocre Man]

LOL at a 3 out of a time out

 

[The Professional Fan]

Nic kinda looking scared again.

 

[craigehlo]

Nic kinda looking scared again.

Yep. He needs to put it on the floor right now and stop rushing his jumpshots.

 

[alex42083]

hahaha... Kobe.. you ain't that good.

 

[<-=*PdX*=->]

Good D on Kobe right there. I can't believe he takes some of those shots.

 

[The Professional Fan]

Ruben Patterson has nothing on Nic's Kobe stopper skills. Hah.

 

[chris_in_pdx]

Blazers need to instigate a fight before halftime. Get some blood flowing.

 

[alex42083]

Down 1.. I'll take it.

 

[The Professional Fan]

Nice finish to the half. Those Laker fucks are sitting on their hands.

I can't believe he makes some of those shots.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Playing well in spite of your coach........Priceless

 

[VenomXL]

One point game at halftime, I'll take it.

I need an update on Roy though.

 

[RoyToy]

How are the Blazers down 1?

This game is kind of boring..

 

[<-=*PdX*=->]

I guess I'll take it after what has happened in the 1st half. You tell me that Roy is gonna miss most of the half and we will only be down one? Lets hope we come out focused in the 2nd half but I doubt our coach will change gameplan.

 

[chris_in_pdx]

I agree. Nate is being completely outclassed.

However, MM, you can only bitch about Nate so long before you need to start suggesting better alternatives. Who would you bring in to do a better job?

Speaking of things being completely predictable...

I think they're down by 1 because Roy isn't playing. Not that he's the cause of them losing games, but they've had to nut up since he's out.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Honestly, Roy missed the last 7 minutes of the half, Nic has been way off on his shot, yet we're only down 1 at the break at the Staples Center. Please explain to me how exactly the gameplan sucks? Seems like damn good coaching to me.

 

[illmatic99]

What happened to Roy?

I don't think you understand what I meant. Remember how the game started? Us down by 9 and we had no drive or focus... I hope that doesn't happen to start the 2nd half but I am half expecting it.

 

[ehizzy3]

I didn't know Roy missed opening night his rookie year..couldve sworn he scored like 14 against Seattle...jvg you fruit

 

[mrkorb]

Anybody notice that our bench is beating their bench 17-3. How many games has it been since we've seen 17 points off our bench?

He won that game for us in Seattle down the stretch!
