BLAZERS @ SUNS 2/10/10 GAME THREAD (1 Viewer)

Blazers haven't won in PHX since 2004? Wow. We kick the Dallas and PHX bugaboo in one season, short handed? Very cool.
 
Our Steve is better than their Steve, for tonight at least. :D
 
Andre swore on TV in the sense of over hearing it on TV, or he swore during an interview?
 
OK, credit where credit is due. This isn't just the best game of the season (easily) for Steve Blake, it's most likely the best game of his career.

His previous career best GmSc of 26.5 was also against Phoenix. It was the game in December 2008, when Roy scored 52. In that game, Blake had 22 points on 8-15 shooting, 10 AST, 4 STL and 0 TOV.

Close, but not quite. Blake missed his last 5 FGA, after starting 7-7. His GmSC ended up at 24.8 - tied for the 3rd highest GmSC of his career.

3 of his top 5 games have come against Phoenix.

And 2 of his top 6 came against Portland when he played for Denver (including his other 24.8 GmSc game).

OKC just passed the Suns with this loss.

Over hearing it on TV. He said 'Fuck' after he was fouled again after missing a FT. MB probably heard it too since he laughed when Andre said it.

so what you're saying is...Steve should play the Suns or Portland for 82 games a year and he'd be all world.
 
Crazy stat of the night: 'Dre with 3 blocks
 
Another crazy stat of the night: Blake hitting 4 of 4 clutch FTs
 
Very impressive statement by the Blazers tonight after that debacle at home.

Well, an all-star anyway. It is odd that all but one of the 6 best games have come against the Suns and the Blazers. Well, not so odd about the Suns. Nash is an awful defender. So, it makes sense Blake would score more than usual against him.

Steve with the post game interview!

Steve finishes with 20 pts on 7/12, 12 asts/1 TO's, 2 rbs, 2 stl, and 1blk in 38 minutes.

Nate had to rush Steve back in at the end of the game to steady the guys and hit ft's at the end.

NICE GAME STEVE!

I don't know how a team can look so dumb one night and so together the next. Scrappy win for the team.

:cheers:

Go Blazers
 
I didn't watch, is Batum okay or not?

From the looks of it, I think he'll be okay. It appeared that Amare, rushing in for an offensive rebound, ran into Nic's shoulder. It didn't look too serious on the replay, but knowing our luck, I don't want to guess what the worst case scenario might be

Not to take away from what the guys did tonight, but the opponent(s) probably had a lot to do with it. OKC is a really, really good defensive team (5th in the league per possession) and the Suns are one of the worst defensive teams in the league. But hey, credit the Blazers for exploiting it, and for the pretty good defensive effort from the Blazers.
 
Just saw the replay of Dante posterizing Amare. Holy crap.....he's got some hops!!

Kpee....Executive Of The Year!

And it comes when Nate inserts him back into the starting line up after a terrible home loss.

Isn't Nate a genius? :D

And the Blazers have trotted out some awful defensive PG's during that time, so Blake's remaining top games against them makes sense on the surface, too.
 
posted this in the twitter feed thread but Blakey's wifey is on teh twitter! http://twitter.com/kristenblake2 tweeted all through the game too!
