Blazers vs OKC Thread 11/04/10.........

now someone remind me of the ending sequence last night I cant quite remember. Matthews goes to the line.. goes 1 for 2, Thunder hit 2 free throws, and then Armon hits the buzzer beating 3 that means nothing right? If so.. that damn FT by Wes Matthews cost us the tie

Pretty much.

Pretty much.

Couple that with the needless foul on the fastbreak, and we should've won. Hindsight is fun!

Had Wes Matthews gone 7-7 from the line instead of 5-7, we win right? There are so many things that go into a win or loss, I think it is hard to pin on one thing,depending on which player/coach you like/hate.

The Miller crusade continues...

Not really. I just read multiple posts about how "incredible" 'Dre played, and I disagree vehemently with that opinion. Getting destroyed on defense and allowing a freaking PG to get 6 offensive rebounds is not part of an "incredible" performance, IMO.

Do you expect a player to be excellent for 48 minutes? Do you expect them to be incredible at every facet of the game? We brought Andre Miller to Portland to pass the ball (11 assists last night) and be a complimentary scorer (16 points). He did that last night. Could he have played better? Sure. Everyone on the team could have played better.

Heck, had the refs called an over the back on Westbrook as he pushed Camby the get the rebound, we would've won as well.

Beats me, move on to the next game. Get ready for the Lakers. Get revenge in OKC.

I already posted that I loved what 'Dre did in the first half, and that he needs to make up for his terrible defense by being exceptional on offense.

Keep up.
