The Lakers are good. So much deeper than last season. Scary.

 

[KingSpeed]

I'm signing out of this thread. Goodnight, friends.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

yeah they are. hopefully Bynum REALLY fucks up their chemistry when he gets back and Lamar starts playing shitty.

only way for us to beat them in a series is if Oden plays well and is a game changer. other than that, they are too good.

 

[maxiep]

we're not the type of team that can just "turn it on". every game is important. and games against the lakers are doubly important. the Thunder are a .500 team, we need to win and compete and the blazers just didn't show up.

Okay. You make a big deal of tonight. I'll think differently about it.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Okay. You make a big deal of tonight. I'll think differently about it.

yeah, lose by 25 to one of our most hated rivals. no biggie. not only did the blazers lose, they failed to even show up tonight.

absolutely nothing positive to take out from this loss whatsoever, except maybe next time they'll overlook us.

 

[maxiep]

The Lakers are good. So much deeper than last season. Scary.

Yeah, Blake and Barnes were terrific acquisitions. When they get Bynum back, they'll be something.

Notice when we were down they were knocking the shit out of us physically to send a message. It looks like Phil took a page from Chuck Daly's playbook.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

So when does the game start?

Aren't we playing the Lakers tonight?

 

[maxiep]

yeah, lose by 25 to one of our most hated rivals. no biggie. not only did the blazers lose, they failed to even show up tonight.

If you're such a fan who takes losses so hard, why couldn't you even bother to show up to the game tonight?

 

[Darkwebs]

The good news is that even with this loss, we are still #2 in our division.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

If you're such a fan who takes losses so hard, why couldn't you even bother to show up to the game tonight?

Because the last time I was at a lakers-blazers game, I got in a few scuffles and I remove myself from those situations.

 

[maxiep]

Losing to the Lakers at home isn't a big deal. It's how bad this team looks against legit competition. Nate's "coaching" hasn't improved and neither has the product on the floor from last year. Missing two centers is no excuse for not being able to execute offensive sets.

Something isn't clicking right now, and it has little to do with the L*kers. The coaches and the players will have to figure it out. I agree, it's not something that is going to be fixed by GO and Joel coming back.

 

[maxiep]

Because the last time I was at a lakers-blazers game, I got in a few scuffles and I remove myself from those situations.

Wow, you're hard core. Did someone sit next to you with an Ed Hardy shirt that clashed with yours? Was your cell phone signal not strong enough at your seat?

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Wow, you're hard core. Did someone sit next to you with an Ed Hardy shirt that clashed with yours? Was your cell phone signal not strong enough at your seat?

no, just a whole lot of cholos yelling shit at anything in a Portland jersey.

Pussy!

its hard being a portland fan in LA. you guys just don't understand, its fucking painful. I've been here since 95 and its been shit talking all day all night.

everytime we lose, my facebook wall blows up. the texts start coming in. and these are my friends. everyone else to me is worse. the lakers make me fucking sick.

Did they make fun of your shoes because they were from last season?

what the fuck is your problem tonight? seriously.

I'm with you bro. I've been here a year and a half now.

Yeah, none of us have ever lived in a rival city. Living in Manhattan, I NEVER took grief for being a Red Sox or a Redskins fan.

 

[maxiep]

Because you're letting some fair weather L*ker fans get under your skin. I've never seen a fanbase (other than ours) lose interest in a franchise so quickly when they suck. Staples is a place to be seen, not to watch hoops. Fuck LA.

 

[Sheldon Shape]

He acts like the loss doesn't matter but he's actively making snide comments to anyone showing concern to the loss. It's fucking hilarious.

Uh, if we were losing interest, we wouldn't be this pissed off. There are serious problems with this team and we're just venting. and this is healthier than jumping off the hawthorne bridge.

Once again, I admire your spunkiness in trying to analyze what other people think. You keep plugging away, Sparky.

The loss sucks, but it's one loss. The season isn't over. And I'm mocking you because you're calling out other posters because you're throwing a hissy fit that you're going to take a bit of grief. If you can't handle it, either become a L*ker fan like all the other fairweather fanboys or move out of LA. It's a shithole anyway.

I guess you weren't living in Portland during the Cheeks years. We make the playoffs for two decades in a row and the minute we have one losing season, the fans split the scene. Our fanbase is as spoiled and whiny as they come.

As for this team, yeah, we have some problems. Sometimes it takes a brutal loss to face them. Something is clearly wrong, and I don't think the problem is physical. We're just not clicking. I'd be more worried if we were playing great and got blown out. This game wasn't a surprise to me.

You've spent the whole night telling people it's one loss and it doesn't matter and making fun of their concerns. It seems like you have low self-esteem and don't know the purpose of the message board. The message board is for people to voice their concerns and thoughts about the team. If you don't know why people are pissed off about the loss than you have less feeling in you than Nancy Pelosi's face. Please continue to tell people they are overreacting for the rest of the night. It's not like you have anything better to do. Oh, and I live in LA because I work for NBC.

Another swing and a miss. Your assumptions and conclusions speak volumes about you, BTW.

I haven't made fun of anyone's concerns about this team. I share them. I wasn't the one calling someone "fanboy". You were trolling the forum. I've been trying to calm people down, and part of that process was mocking you.

You should learn the difference between analysis and bitching by the way. I'm not happy about the loss, but screaming about it isn't constructive.

And congratulations on your big job working for GE and Comcast. I bet you have a bitchin' set of cable repair tools.

ROFLMAO. Who's bitching? I just think people are too devoted to their messiah Roy and that he can do no wrong, obviously the case with many posters tonight. How many people have you mocked tonight? I don't think you could count on both hands. Your insecurities read loud and clear. MSNBC might be the place for you btw. And it's not GE AND Comcast, it's one or the other smart guy. Don't you have a family to get to tonight or no? I guess trolling the message boards is a full-time job in this recession. Good luck on keeping the fans "calm" by taking shots at them. You must be a success at such a ripe age.

wtf?

This is where you and I differ. I like the Blazers and I support all the players. I want them all to do well. You keep hating though.

As for my insecurities, I'm not the one moaning about having to be mocked by L*ker fans.

You may wish to check with your boss as to whether or not GE and Comcast own NBC. Both currently own the company; Comcast is moving up to a 51% share. Why do I have to tell you about your own company?

And as for mocking fans, I've done no such thing. I've mocked you, and you've shown you're no fan.
