Blazers v. Atlanta Game Thread

[Mediocre Man]

Our defense has been stellar lately. Hawks haven't scored more than 23 in a quarter. Amazing. On their own floor.

Are you watching the Atlanta feed?

Wilkins seems to be in awe of our talent.

 

[KingSpeed]

And Oden has been right there with him, but Blake has 8 more minutes than Oden.

That's what the problem is.


Haha, Bayless has 2 more FT's than our starting guard in like 3 seconds

Oden has more turnovers than rebounds and blocks combined.

Blake has been playing very well tonight. Let's get off the stupid "Blake should not be there" stuff.

Are you watching the Atlanta feed?

No. Watching Mike & Mike.

Josh Smith has top 5 talent, but is easily one of the dumbest, biggest whiners in the league.

Wilkins seems to be in awe of our talent.

When I went to Atlanta two seasons ago, there was an article in their paper saying that they wouldn't trade their players for our players but couldn't understand why they weren't winning.

The Hawks' offensive rebounding has thorn in the Blazers' side thus far.

 

[Mediocre Man]

God Damnit. PUT ODEN IN

I think you and I discussed that exact fact over a beer/soda, IIRC.

 

[KingSpeed]

If we can win this game, it is huge. We avenge the home loss. We beat the team with the second best record in the league on their court. We improve to 6-1 on the road. And we sweep a 5 game road trip for the first since... when?

 

[The Professional Fan]

This game is getting irritating. Webs. Man. Come on. That was the ugliest thing I think I've ever seen.

Jesus Martell ................

 

[Natebishop3]

Man.... Webster is doing his best Outlaw impression.

 

[andalusian]

Good god. Maybe Webster needs to sit this one out.

 

[toutlaw25]

God Damnit. PUT ODEN IN

He's not allowed to play more than 25 mins per game.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Blake has been playing very well tonight. Let's get off the stupid "Blake should not be there" stuff.

That's not my point at all. My point is Greg should not be on the bench with only 1 foul.

 

[The Sebastian Express]

Greg has one foul but for some inexplicable reason will not be playing over 30 minutes in this game.

 

[Sheldon Shape]

I wanna see Greg get some more shots when he gets in there. He should be in there RIGHT NOW.

 

[BBert]

He sure is. Maybe the Blazers need to give him a Travis Outlaw bobblehead until Travis is back.

 

[STOMP]

geez, I'm thinking the refs are trying to tighten this game up.

STOMP

 

[The Professional Fan]

Webster is.......dumbish.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Put Oden in!!!!!!!

 

[Natebishop3]

Lineup change!

 

[RoyToy]

This 4th Q by Webster is an abomination

 

[andalusian]

That's not my point at all. My point is Greg should not be on the bench with only 1 foul.

Greg has played 20 minutes so far and there are 9 more in the game. I suspect we will see him soon.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Well that was three minutes of spastic basketball ... ugh.

 

[B-Roy]

GET HEAD OUT OF ASS. JOEL PLAYING LIKE SHIT. PUT ODEN IN.

 

[Natebishop3]

You guys don't understand.... McMillan's rule for Oden was only to cover up his regular rotation. He never figured Oden would stop fouling. He has his rotation and it doesn't change. Oden comes out at certain times, no matter what. Just accept it.

 

[RR7]

Yuck Martell. Awful start to the 4th

 

[Mediocre Man]

29 minutes for Oden when he is not in foul trouble is inexcusable.
