Damn 'dre!

 

[Natebishop3]

Am I the only one who can't stand alternative camera angles?

I feel like I can't see what's going on... it's weird.

 

[KingSpeed]

Don't trade Andre Miller. We need him.

 

[Natebishop3]

That was a pretty feed from Dre to Nic. Suh-weeeeeeeet!

Nice job!

And for the rest of you,

"They've gone wild in Portland," Musburger yells. Walton tears off his jersey as fans fill the court, grabbing at anything in sight. The team fights its way into the locker room as Musburger signs off and CBS switches to the Kemper Open.

Portland fans crash the switchboard at KOIN, the local CBS-TV affiliate, protesting the quick cut to golf. Dick Butterfield, KOIN's general manager, is at the game and doesn't find out until later. He calls the move "plain lousy judgment." Don Wiederecht, a communications director for CBS, apologizes to "our basketball fans" and assures them the trophy presentation and "locker room activity" will be shown on CBS Sports Spectacular in a few days.

I love how we're making Durant play D. Batum is just running around the court off screens, like Rudy usually does.

 

[Natebishop3]

I'll rep the first person who knows what I'm talking about.

What Blazer fan DOESN'T know what you're talking about?

 

[Natebishop3]

Aldridge is fucking dialed!

 

[Natebishop3]

Ugh, how are those not free throws? He was in the process of going up for a dunk..

 

[Natebishop3]

Hell, Westbrook gets coddled almost as much as Durant. He has to be one of the most overrated players in the league.

 

[Natebishop3]

It's amazing how well these two teams are shooting.

 

[Natebishop3]

Roy just isn't on tonight.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Aldridge: ONE rebound

That's very Bargnani of him

 

[illmatic99]

I loved Reggie as a player, but he's bugging me tonight. WTF, man. OKC isn't playing an intrasquad scrimmage tonight.

You can talk about POR.

 

[KingSpeed]

This is the best team we've had since 99-00 easy.

 

[Natebishop3]

No he can't. I'm sure it comes from up top. "Talk the Thunder. Talk the Thunder. Talk the Thunder."

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Dante is a fucking solid bench player. SOLID.

 

[Natebishop3]

Roy is playing like shit tonight.

 

[Natebishop3]

Time for a timeout. This lineup sucks.

 

[illmatic99]

I hate this no PG lineup.

 

[Darkwebs]

Roy looks lethargic- no energy, no 2nd gear.

 

[KingSpeed]

Dante is a fucking solid bench player. SOLID.

Agreed.

 

[Natebishop3]

There we go. We need Roy to start hitting.

 

[illmatic99]

I don't want Dante shooting 18' jump shots early in the shot clock.

 

[Natebishop3]

"Oh my goodness what a great move by Sefolosha" to get the ball right back to the Blazers....

 

[B-Roy]

I hate Dante taking that shot...

 

[Nikolokolus]

I hate this no PG lineup.

Seconded. Armon handling the ball just looks better than Roy or Matthews, mostly because it should free them up for wider open jumpers when Johnson is pulling defenders to him and passing.

 

[KingSpeed]

I don't want Dante shooting 18' jump shots early in the shot clock.

That's his shot. He hits a high percentage of them. If he's open, he must shoot it.

 

[Natebishop3]

Matthews doesn't make good decisions with the ball. I've been kind of disappointed by that. Westbrook fell down and he couldn't take advantage of a 5 on 4 situation.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Pretty fun game to watch. Now lets go on a run Blazers!
