Aldridge w/ the block and then the jam on the other end. He has stepped up this half.
 
holy crap... we're playing well. I wonder if Greg can develop a jump shot from 10 feet and in. He was wide open.

He made a jumpshot against the Heat. I wonder why he didn't shoot it there.
 
Aldridge on fire in this quarter. He's 6 of 7. Wow!

I think that's the only time he's taken one too. He has a nice form at the FT line, he should trust it or try it when he's open like he was.
 
Oden to the foul line once again.
 
LA and Oden being aggressive on the 2-man play. This is exactly what I hoped we'd see in a hi-lo two man game.
 
Batum hitting the O board.
 
Why is Oden getting bullied around down low when he has so much size on everyone? He isn't going up strong with the ball and everyone seems to be able to knock him around.

He gets stripped on the post more than anyone else that I have seen in the NBA in a while.

He's got great hands and seems to be a strong guy... I hope it's a matter of experience and maybe altering how he holds the ball. I suppose it's his general hesitancy, as well, that lets people recover and help to collapse on him.

One thing that I love is that he works hard on the offensive boards. For every one he gets, he's got the inside position at least one other time and the ball doesn't bounce right. I love it how hard he works there.

I know, he seems to get stripped a lot. I hope it's something simple he can correct.
 
Another 3 by the Blazers, this time from Outlaw. We're living by the 3 this game.
 
I wonder if Webster will get any more minutes in this half.
 
Plus 5 in the 3rd Quarter.......Time to take over this game and come home guys!

He brings the ball down to low where guards can strip him, and then he tries to dunk it every time and big men will block it. Greg should ask Joel to get some pointers, since Joel's shooting 85 percent and gets a lot of his in the same position that Greg finds himself in.

He does a couple of things that should be completely correctable with practice and experience: 1) he brings the ball low when he gathers himself instead of holding the ball right at his chest or under his chin which makes it easier to strip, and 2) he's still probably recovering his explosiveness after MF surgery and as he improves he shouldn't have to spend so much time getting ready to explode.
