That comment from Rice was aimed at us. I'd bet money on it.

What'd he say? =)

 

[Tortimer]

Great great game for Oden.

 

[MARIS61]

Who gets the last basket?

 

[KingSpeed]

Great game by Outlaw.

 

[ehizzy3]

damn he ended the feed early

I say we just call Greg "The Bust" for the rest of his career as a joke.

 

[Darkwebs]

Hooray!! Sweet victory is ours!

 

[chris_in_pdx]

Great game by Outlaw.

Outlaw still made some dumbass "Zach Randolph" plays, but yes, an overall good game for him.

 

[AgentDrazenPetrovic]

haha..watch the replay on the Charlie V flop-down in slow-mo....Greg just looked at him and said WTF?

haha

"Maybe this will shut up some of the Greg Oden haters out there."

Or something to that effect.

He said this game from Oden should quiet some of the people who have been talking.

 

[KingSpeed]

Oden's best game of the year?

Um yeah. And we won.

 

[KingSpeed]

Halfway to 50 wins.

Only until our next game. I'd bet my life on it.

Why did Aldridge not even play in the 4th?

 

[Darkwebs]

Why did Aldridge not even play in the 4th?

I think it was 'cuz Oden was establishing himself. Maybe Nate felt Oden needed more room on the blocks.

The lineup that was in was playing so well, I imagine Nate just didn't want to change it up.

 

[Ed O]

Offensive rebounds for Blazers: 19
Defensive rebounds for Bucks: 22

I think we would win some games if we could do that more regularly.

Oden had the kind of game he SHOULD have against low-level centers. His free throws were unfortunate, but he hit the boards hard and stayed out of foul trouble...

Did you notice a difference in how we got him the ball though Ed?

 

[MIXUM]

its funny how everyone gets so surprised when oden has a good game yet say hes not a bust.

this is what a first round 1st overall pick is SUPPOSED TO DO


and it means nothing until he does it consistently vs good centers/good teams. oden played greta tonight, like we have hoped BUT i wanna see him do it vs guys like duncan shaq okur and nene. then he has arrived. not vs gadzuric or whatever the hell his name is.

we should just sign tyronne lue btw.

That high-low between he and Aldridge was a thing of beauty. I know teams will scout it and try to take it away, but if they can get that going even a little bit then good things are going to happen.

 

[Ed O]

That they actually passed it to him from more than one spot on the floor?

Yes. It's amazing when someone other than the point guard is willing to pass it into the post.

Thank you for your input. It was much anticipated and much appreciated.

Again, thank you.

Which first pick overall averaged 24/15 again?

This is a good game for almost any player in the NBA... Dwight Howard is one of the few big guys who could remotely expect to do that (although other players clearly are capable). It's kinda silly to expect that from the first overall pick, even if he didn't miss a year because of knee surgery.

Final tally:

Sergio +18

Jerryd -1

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

Bayless looked all wound up again tonight. Committed some stupid fouls which took him out of the game.

Someone needs to slip him a valium or something.

I love when I block a guy, but end up seeing his posts via quotes...

Exactly Nik. I love that high/low and I'm glad that Nate is actually working on ways of involving the big guy more.

my thoughts on game....

oden was great but has to do night in and night out.

roy is obviously still very hurt. he has been dreadful 2 games in a row. infact he was almost a decoy out there tonight. maybe he really was. well it worked but it wont vs the cavs.

even though we scored 100... our offense just seems like it has way too many problems scoring consistently. The other problem is... we just never finish easy point blank shots. it kills us so much!

sergio outplayed bayless by a mile. you likely wont hear that again in the same sentence...ever! I have to be fair though. Sergio looked okay but cant shoot worth piss.

how great would jefferson look for us. did we really turn down him for zach? good god what a mistake. instead we are stuck with frye who is teh nicest cheerleader you will ever meet.

Aldridge hitting that jumper is a thing of beauty.

MY BIGGEST CONCERN....WHY DO SCRUBS OFF THE BENCH ALWAYS SCORE AGAINST US? It happened in the bobcats game and tonight both early in the 2nd. It seems like they always make these tough shots.

anyway..theres no way we beat the cavs...if we do...i wont post till monday.

 

[MARIS61]

We won all 4 quarters.
