Bayless sucks

killing our chance of winning by 50

 

[maxiep]

I love it! We're up 40+ and Bayless still looks pissed.

Why don't we have dozens of people commenting on this thread?

I know! It's weird. 25 pages last night

is everyone at the game?

 

[PapaG]

I feel bad for the Bulls' fans right now.

Lindsey Hunter is the only player who showed any effort, and when the Blazers were building their lead to a blowout in the third quarter, the camera panned the Bull bench during a TO and Drew Gooden was laughing.

Vinny Del Negro has his work cut out for him.

 

[Wizard Mentor]

should help our Hollinger ratings.

 

[KingSpeed]

Derrick Rose 6 pts 1 asst 1-8 FGs

Oden= rookie of the year

 

[PapaG]

should help our Hollinger ratings.

Phew. Now I can sleep.

I think I found the forumula for success, I've discovered that if I open and drink a beer every quarter and don't post during the game the score balloons out of control, I'm going to test my hypothesis over the next few games and see what happens, worst comes to worst I get a nice buzz at the very least.

Give him a break. It was pretty funny, wasn't it?

116-74 Blazers final. And it wasn't that close.

 

[drexlersdad]

everyone scored, oden with 11/10/3 in 17 minutes, what a fucking game.

 

[Tortimer]

Great game! I was hoping for a game I could relax and not have to worry about the end of the game.

 

[PapaG]

It's funny if you like losers who laugh while being clownstomped on national TV.

 

[Blazed]

God, i'm sure glad we didn't end up with Tyrus Thomas, that guy sucks a fat one. He's terrible.

 

[Nikolokolus]

I'm not sure what I just witnessed tonight ... Our center position has suddenly morphed into the a two headed beast in the past week.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Wow.

True story - I was thinking before the game that, with Oden, we should blow teams out like the Chicago Bulls.

This one wasn't close from the start.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Steve Blake

...Injured by Drew Gooden's beard.

 

[PapaG]

I'm not sure what I just witnessed tonight ... Our center position has suddenly morphed into the a two headed beast in the past week.

Przy has shown this ability before with some monster games. Now he seems energized, confident, and doesn't care about fouls. It's a thing of beauty.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

11 pts 10 rebs

14 pts 9 rebs

The two headed monster indeed.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

We ran an uptempo offense tonight and Blake and Sergio looked great running the point.

Something to ponder...

It's not that impressive of a win as you would think. Although this should wash out the Lakers blowout in my power rankings allowing Portland to make a big jump tomorrow.

I don't mean to "dick it up" and rub salt in an open wound, but what the fuck are you talking about? That's about as impressive a win as you are likely to see in the NBA.

We had blocks and defensive stops which lead to easy buckets, that's what Nate's been talking about for 3 years now, tonight the team just executed the game plan to perfection (as well as pounding the ball inside to our bigs)

 

[bodyman5001]

Looks like a great game, only got to check in and out while watching more shit movies my girlfriend rented. FUCK the Red Box. A dollar is cheap unless the movie is crap....

Anyway, gonna go watch the game on my DVR.

 

[handiman]

Great game from everyone in a Blazers uni, and we're finally in the positive for point differential!

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

I know it was a win, and I know I always find a way to bitch, but....

LaMarcus laid another egg. 4-13 FG, 11 pts.

 

[HOWIE]

I was very impressed with the win tonight, Portland came out a little flat to start the 3rd quarter thus Portland wasn't able to hand Chicago their worst franchise defeat, but none the less, Impressive Win.

 

[Nikolokolus]

That makes you a bonafide hater. He had good energy tonight, his shot is still just off, give it time.

 

[alex42083]

I thought LaMarcus played a lot better tonight. The FG shooting may not show it, but he was pretty active defensively and disrupted a lot of the Bulls' offense.
Chicago looked just terrible tonight... almost embarrassing.

 

[noknobs]

That was fun, let's do that every game. I can't even bitch about the refs tonight.

I can't remember the last time we built an early big lead and instead of giving it right back, we actually kept attacking and put our foot on their throat. The Bulls kindly helped our cause.

edit - And I also liked Aldridge tonight, despite the continuing shooting slump. The energy and aggression by him and Roy even when we were up big, really helped increase the lead.
