[maxiep]

That was the win of the season. Great, great, great, gutty win.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Blazers win. 5 Blazers beat 5 Mavs +3.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

First win in Dallas since Jan. '03!! And who woulda thought it woulda come tonight?? So proud of this team right now!

 

[Darkwebs]

Please god, heal Roy's shoulder.

 

[maxiep]

Wow. Gutty, gutty win.

Beat me to it.

 

[illmatic99]

Amazing resilience. Great victory. The reward? a healthy , rested Spurs team.

 

[Darkwebs]

Roy says his shoulder will be alright. Hope he's correct.

 

[The Sebastian Express]

Amazing heart and balls by the team to gut this one out after another crushing blow on the injury front.

 

[B-Roy]

Great win, but now what do we do without Joel?

(Insert Rudy Tomjonavich quote)

 

[Darkwebs]

I can't believe we beat the Suns, Heat, and Mavs all within a week with our depleted roster. Maybe teams are starting to overlook us.

 

[andalusian]

Say what you want about this team, say what you want about this coach, these guys have a heart. Can't be more proud of them.

 

[ehizzy3]

good win...just caught the last few minutes tho

^ This.

Everyone will have to step up defensively and on the boards. Otherwise, it'll get ugly for us and we'll be lottery-bound.

 

[Nikolokolus]

I tip my hat to Juwan and LMA tonight, they really stepped up when we needed them to board and play some D

Or maybe you're overlooking your own team.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Old man Howard with the double-double. Great to see

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Pretty amazing win with Juwan Howard playing center and Webster not showing up again.

 

[MARIS61]

Everyone will have to step up defensively and on the boards. Otherwise, it'll get ugly for us and we'll be lottery-bound.

At this point the lottery seems like a best case scenario.

 

[mgb]

As Roy said, bitter sweet win.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Two things I hate most about the NBA. Season ending injuries and Pathetic (and I mean absolutely fucking pathetic) officiating. And I am not even talking about the out of bounds play. Its really quite sad how they can ruin the game.

 

[julius]

Yesterday, all the players were not hurt you see...now it looks as if they're not healthy today...oh I believe in yesterday...suddenly, they're not half the team they used to be...There's a shadow hanging over Rose City...oh yesterday, came suddenly...Why they had to get hurt, I don't know, they cannot say. I said, somethings wrong, now I long for next season....

 

[SheedSoNasty]

Honestly, I never thought in a million years that we would have won that game. With the way we've played the Mavs the last few years and all of our injuries, that game had disaster written all over it.

I'm really impressed with the way they fought through to the end. Big W.

 

[southnc]

Gritty win.

They held Dallas to nearly 20 points below their average!

 

[julius]

Oh man, I just saw the replay. That was brutal.

 

[B-Roy]

As much as I crapped on Howard, dude had a double double and 4 assists.
