[riverman]

Beating the Lakers again is like double the pleasure, double the fun!!! Smackdown in smellay!

 

[BBert]

[Jon]

Bout time we won by 20+

 

[noknobs]

Loved the effort in the 2nd half. They looked like a team that wanted to stay together.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Very good defense in the second half. It'd be nice to see a sequel another 45 times this year

 

[ripcityboy]

That kid must have been coddled as fuck. What is wrong with him?

No idea. Stopped paying attention after the Ducks beat the crap out of them and Coach Mike acted like a tool with Dillon Brooks.

 

[illmatic99]

Held em to 30 in the 2nd half

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I think AC and ET are finally starting to click...ET with 7 dimes already in this game..

I don't know; Turner can't seem to find Crabbe on backdoor plays.

 

[riverman]

This is what happens when you don't play Meyers that much

 

[ripcityboy]

I HATE LA!!!!! DUN DUN DUN DUN.......

Meyers has the slowest 3 point shot I've ever seen.

Come check out my Grandma shoot the '3'. She'll give Meyers a run for his money with the sundial measured release.

 

[Scalma]

Was at the game. Was beautiful seeing lakers fans leaving early. Also Russell poked the bear and lost. Idiot.

 

[LuckyShot]

I think Russell scored like 2 points after running his mouth at Dame. Dame scored like 17 and our team beat the living shit out of their team. Don't fuck with Dame, kids.

 

[illmatic99]

Pdx is shut down

 

[riverman]

he

Did you go to the game bro? Heckle some Laker fans? Love the detail on the head crop there...

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Pdx is shut down

BLAZERS, COME SLEEP AT MY PAD, YO.

 

[ripcityboy]

Pdx is shut down

The Timbers are signing a really good player. We got to look on the good side.

 

[illmatic99]

I think Russell scored like 2 points after running his mouth at Dame. Dame scored like 17 and our team beat the living shit out of their team. Don't fuck with Dame, kids.

You dont see people get under Dames skin, like ever. Russell woke the beast. Hope this ultra aggressive Dame is back for good

haha. nah. I haven't been to a L*kers game since Greg Oden's first game. I'll get in a fight, I literally get triggered seeing the urine and violet.

 

[Darkwebs]

Pdx is shut down

After Portland shut down the Lakers. How perfect!

 

[illmatic99]

Damn. They woulda prolly benched LeBron on the second night of b2b tmrw. Guessing another reschedule

 

[Wizard Mentor]

Sole possession of 8th place, Playoffs, Baby!!

 

[Scalma]

No ones asking but imma share anyway. I was the only Blazers fan in my section. I was petty quiet until Russell went at dame. After that I made sure to stand up after every Portland bucket and let my section know what time it was. This dude told me to shut the fuck up and I asked him to tell me the score. Then he mumbled something and that was the end of our interaction

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Awesome!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Awesome!

 

[KingSpeed]

How the fuck can we be so bad, then so good defensively? It'd be so much easier to accept if we always sucked.

We have Aminu now. No, seriously.

 

[Boob-No-More]

We have Aminu now. No, seriously.

We had Aminu in the first half, too.

We gave up 57 points in the first half. That's the equivalent of giving up 114 points per game, which would tie us for last in the league with BRK.

We gave up 30 points in the second half. The equivalent of 60 points per game.

We literally went from the worst defense in the league to the best defense in the entire history of the NBA from one half to the next.

I think that variation from one half to the next is what BonesJones was referring to.
