Game 1: Blazers vs Rockets - Game Thread

[Fawzi83]

This is what we get for getting our hopes up

 

[Lost One]

Welcome to the playoffs.

Blazers are young, don't have much experience in the postseason...

It's one game. I'm expecting them to knock off the butterflies and play better in Game 2. I mean, you guys are the better team...

taking bets--- how close will we get the rest of the way? 12 pts? 3 pts? win?

lol Mamba is enjoying this thread

Of course he is. He knows Houston has our number and we have the L*kers. Houston is paving the way nicely for K*be to get his ass handed to him by LeBron.

This is gonna be as close as we get

 

[MARIS61]

why is the hottest team in the league getting beat by 25?



at HOME?

No ball movement at all, walking it up the court, no defensive pressure, no player movement, and playing 5 on 8.

[BasX]

Nice drive by B-Roy

Someone PM me so I have 700 PM's in my inbox.

 

[maxiep]

Roy is doing it all on his own. I'd like to see the other Blazers give him some help.

Sorry, attention whoring is only for Southern Californians. We don't do that in the Pacific Northwest.

 

[Fawzi83]

I hope we start Oden next game

 

[MARIS61]

Will we finish with Frye or Ruffin at center?

 

[BasX]

Werd. Werd Dawg.

 

[yakbladder]

holy crap..they called a fourth foul on Yao..I'm going to go run out and buy all the lottery tickets I can handle.

The one player I'm a little disappointed with tonight is Travis Outlaw. Was kind of hoping he'd take it to the rim a few more times and try for the dunk-it-or-foul-me approach. But there's still time and he's pretty good at redeeming slower starts.

 

[THE HCP]

Here come my Blazers!

 

[illmatic99]

24 to 5 FT advantage. I hope the refs are enjoying this.

 

[Fawzi83]

If we want to have a chance at this game we have to get to 14 down before the 4th

 

[MARIS61]

Blake with some D.

 

[Trip]

Mutombo continues to own the boards.

 

[BasX]

OMG Joey Dorsey...

 

[BasX]

Portland, stepping up.

 

[KingSpeed]

we're playing good D

now we need to score

 

[MARIS61]

Blake picking up the D again, everyone else standing and watching.
