Blazers @ Thunder 11/02/12 GAME THREAD

[Nikolokolus]

Empty seats with in the front row with time on the clock ... must need to get home and milk the sheep.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

coach pulls your two stars out with a minute left, and you can't even give them a hand? Stop this "best crowd ever" crap.

The PA announcer didn't let them know they needed to clap.

 

[ABM]

You just know Westbrook was gonna be certain he out-performed Lillard.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

look at that. entire sections of fans gone. This won't be pretty when this team sucks.

When's that going to be? Not for a while yet.

 

[Nikolokolus]

You just know Westbrook was gonna be certain he out-performed Lillard.

Of course.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

You just know Westbrook was gonna be certain he out-performed Lillard.

He certainly scored more... But Lillard has more assists.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

When's that going to be? Not for a while yet.

When Durant bolts for NY or LA.

 

[BrianFromWA]

The Wizards with Wall and Beal.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Well .... all things considered, that pretty much went to script. Nice to see Lillard take his show on the road and perform. Nicolas though ... *sigh*

 

[BlazerCaravan]

When Durant bolts for NY or LA.

That will be amusing, you're right.

 

[B-Roy]

He certainly scored more... But Lillard has more assists.

He toyed with Lillard's defense.

It'll be fine though, he'll learn.

 

[Nikolokolus]

He certainly scored more... But Lillard has more assists.

Lillard is going to have trouble with defense for awhile I'd wager. However you want to cut it, Westbrook is an all-star and Lillard is a rookie and it seemed to show.

 

[MARIS61]

Look at all the OKC fans leaving early. gotta get up early to milk those fucking cows!

Lillard would have had a better game than against the lakers if Batum hadn't been so stymied by defending Durant... He seems like he always underperforms against Kevin.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Oh yeah I don't disagree. But Lillard with worse teammates managed to distribute better... You know, like a pass guard.

 

[EGame]

Were that much closer to the number 1 pick overall!

 

[EGame]

And jesus Durant had 17 rebounds? I didn't even feel like I saw him rebound once

 

[santeesioux]

Were that much closer to the number 1 pick overall!

Lakers already have a head start though!

 

[Blazinaway]

Well .... all things considered, that pretty much went to script. Nice to see Lillard take his show on the road and perform. Nicolas though ... *sigh*

agree, we played hard but OKC is a NBA finals team. Like what I saw and I can easily watch these guys. Lillard another good game, Nic's offense was awful tonight

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Good individual stats for Lillard, Hickson, and(against all odds) LaMarcus.

 

[ABM]

42-15. That was your game right there.

 

[Boise Blazer]

Well I feel like Lillard didn't necessarily have a great game but he still had good stats and that makes me very hopeful

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Well I feel like Lillard didn't necessarily have a great game but he still had good stats and that makes me very hopeful

21 points, 7 assists, 3 rebounds, 2 turnovers, and I agree, it didn't feel like a great game from him... Holy Hell!

 

[julius]

Some positives we can take from the game (and granted, I'm taking these almost exclusively from the box score and what you guys said).

Lillard played well against one of the better PG's in the game.


um...

Im sure there were other positives.

 

[BrianFromWA]

Rasheed Wallace, 3pts, 1reb. Nic Batum 3pts, 1reb.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Well I feel like Lillard didn't necessarily have a great game but he still had good stats and that makes me very hopeful

For his second NBA game against the runner up in the finals? He played fine. He shot efficiently, took care of the ball and even managed to distribute the ball instead of reverting to ball-hog mode when things started to slip away. Nothing for him to hang his head about at all.

 

[EGame]

Could be worse, we could have lost to the Orlando Magic like the Nuggets did

 

[EGame]

Rasheed Wallace, 3pts, 1reb. Nic Batum 3pts, 1reb.

The real question is how many minutes for Rasheed lol

Babbitt didn't spazz out in actual quality game time (that much),
Meyers Leonard didn't fall as much as Game 1 and is showing a bit of spunk.
Hickson has some bounce.

One.
