After one:

-- The Blazers can't hit the broad side of a barn.
-- Oden is becoming a force on defense. Love it.
-- Nice to see Webster out there.
-- Graham is killing us.

We're lucky to be as close as we are. Fighting fatigue at the end of this kind of trip is rough, and the early start makes it a weird game.

Sergio is definitely far more efficient at turning it over than Blake. Plus he doesn't have the two pesky "3s" that Blake managed to get.

Blake's numbers look good but he played terrible IMO. Sergio isn't player any better either.

Blake scored 30% of our points in the quarter in the 9 minutes he played. I don't think it's fair to point HIM out as being terrible.

7 freaking TOs in the 1st quarter. Should be down 20 the way we're playing. Come on, this is the Toronto Raptors, not the Celtics. Protect the damn ball.

Might as well get Outlaw out if he can't hit his shot. Damn we are going to get blow out if we don't turn it around soon. I would hate that to happen after the bad game against the Celtics.
 
So, this was our response after the Boston loss.

It wouldn't surprise me to see a poor stretch of basketball coming our way over the next 10 games.

We're on pace for something like 34 TO's tonight... and we show no signs of doing any better this quarter.
 
The Blazers look flat-out asleep out there. The rigors of this early schedule have finally caught up with them.

And who the hell are these announcers on NBA-TV? Good jesus, these east-coast blowhards make me want to put a pistol in my mouth.

Turnovers and no defense the story of the first part of the game. Ugh.

Especially since Toronto has said "we normally don't play defense, but we decided to copy the blitz Boston put on Portland tonight." And it's working. If we can't adjust to a "surround Roy with 5 guys" defense, we will struggle.
 
Toronto is getting into the lane at will tonight, our defense looks as strong as a wet paper towel.

oops, please delete.
 
Re: Toronto - Blazers game thread

Portland needs to get someone to shut down the paint!!! Toronto is shooting lights out......Joey Graham.....are you kidding me?
 
Wow. Sounds like maxie called it. Major Boston hangover.
 
Our energy and passing look so poor tonight ... er today
 
Tough shot by Rudy. Glad to see him drive to the basket.
 
Why is Oden not in the game? He has one fucking foul.

Put him in damnit.
 
No interior defense get Oden back in there Nate!
 
what a crappy game so far. Thank god at least Rudy came to play.
 
For all those who are calling for Oden, do you not realize that he's really not that good of an offensive force?

Because Bargnani and Bosh are their 4 and 5 who live on the perimeter. That doesn't favor Greg on defense.
