Game 1: Blazers vs Rockets - Game Thread

[Legacy]

Roy gotta take over next half.

 

[Sedatedfork]

I'm not calling it, but we need to punch somebody in the mouth.

A technical would be nice.

 

[Brittany_Loves_LamarcusA]

Time for me to start praying

 

[KingSpeed]

Why can't I go all caps?

That is fucking important right now.
What the fuck mods?
Let me go caps.

You can't type the first word in caps. But after that, IT'S FINE!

 

[Iwatas]

Man, do we need a real miracle... need to get it down to no worse than 10 by the end of the 3rd.

 

[VenomXL]

The Rockets are beating us up and the refs are letting them get away with it. It's fucking bullshit. So much for home court advantage. Fuck this shit.

 

[yakbladder]

Anyone else think Stern came to town to get some money and was turned away by Paul?

Either this will go down as one of the greatest Portland Trailblazer playoff come-backs ever or else this is the start of a first round flame out. The only consolation is that I don't see the Rockets being this proficient from the field for the rest of the series.

 

[KingSpeed]

Nothing good about a technical. Gives them an extra point we can't afford to give up.

 

[illmatic99]

Please deny Yao the ball.

ORRRRRRRRRR YOU CAN DO THiS!!!

I lol'd

 

[B-Roy]

How do we have 3 free throws and they have 15 FUCKING FREE THROWS.

 

[Sinobas]

Game over, series over, season over, we're not beating the Rockets. Their defense is too tough and the Blazer's just are not tough enough to crack their defense, and apparently, we can't stop their offense either. That's a really bad combination.

This is probably THE WORST match up we could have possibly gotten in the 1st round, and it occured because the of that bull shit 3 pointer in SA and Posey missing a FT.

No mods here during the game, and Ed hasn't been around since Thursday.

LOL

What station is the game on anyway? I turned on KGW, and they were showing "World's Greatest Prisonyard Gang-Rapes."

not to mention Finley's three in Sacramento that should've have counted

Wow -- I laughed pretty hard. Just watched the Miracle Minute. I feel a little better.

I'm about to punch myself in the mouth

 

[Nikolokolus]

Welcome to the playoffs boys. Seriously guys, did you think the refs were going to bail out the youngins?

 

[KingSpeed]

didn't the Rockets blow a 15 point lead in their last game of the season?

I expected to get equal calling on both sides. Unfortunately this appears to be too much to ask.

I guess anything can happen, but ...

Are you f'n kidding me? You wait till half time to try to find the game? It won't hurt to scroll through the channels

 

[Nikolokolus]

Why? Yao is a superstar, Brandon is largely unknown around the country.

If you want to put your foil hat on and indulge in conspiracy theories, you start to wonder just what David Stern breezed into town for.

Yeah... thanks for the good chuckle. I needed one, and points to you for creativity.

Now let's see us come out and actually play the second half!

I'm so fucking sick of the quitters in here. I guess there's no reason for you to post here until the draft.

Christ, I can just see Charles on TNT recapping this game: "Portland's a jump shooting team, they aint gonna do nothin"
