Game Thread GAME# 62: ROCKETS @ BLAZERS - MARCH 11, 2015 - WEDNESDAY, 7:30 PM (PST), KGW & ESPN

Would you consider them our biggest rival? It seems they have trash attitude like the Patriots vs. my Ravens.

1. Lakers (they probably don't feel the same about us though)
2. Rockets
3. ChoKC
4. Jazz (when we're both good)
5. Kkklippers

They are definitely up there. If we are talking who the team rivals against, I think it's different with each player.

I would probably rate it like this:
1.) Lakers by default
2.) Tied with OKC and Houston
3.) Flop City
4.) Dallas

I think those 4 teams really bring out the best from our stars and coach. You can tell they absolutely want a win against them.

This is one reason why I don't want to face SAS. I think we like them as players and really respect them as a team. The motivation to play our A game against them is not there.

I've also excluded Memphis on the rival list until we actually can show we can beat them. As Mr. Tough Shit once said "it ain't a rivalry until a team can beat you"

+> That Mr. Tough Shit quote is for real. One of my friends told me you have not been in business until you had been sued. Thats true I had my own business for nine years. I was a home inspector. Out of 10 thousand jobs only got nailed 4 times. That.... is a good batting average.

I wish we had the Lakers in our division like the old days. That rivalry was intense especially late 80's early 90's. I always viewed the three Texas teams, OKC and Memphis as the most intense to play. Gotta say last nights game had me screaming at the fuckin refs:those inept pricks....

I would like to see the referee grades for this one. Anyone know when they're up?

we may not get one:

last night’s games which were within five points at the two-minute mark

That display of 'officiating' is the reason, for me, why it's getting harder, and harder to enjoy the modern NBA.
Too many whistles, stoppages, BIAS and terrible, blatantly wrong calls that even Ray Charles could have made correctly.

How about this Flop?

This should have been called a flop no matter what the score was with 2 mins left.

Batum is a good teacher.

hahaha best part was that people on Clutchfans were wanting to have Aldridge suspended. Sorry, if that was a guy on my team, I'd be embarrassed that he did that. It was so blatant that he flopped after getting hit.
