GAME THREAD: BLAZERS @ ROCKETS - 1/20/2014, MONDAY, 5:00 PM (PST), TNT

[Strenuus]

Just... wow. Yep. The refs are off the houston bench... fucking unreal.

 

[TBpup]

Wheels losing his mind on the non-goaltend call!

 

[MARIS61]

Meyers is the man.

Joel was playing like the Queen of England.

 

[Natebishop3]

Nevermind. That was legit.

 

[BrianFromWA]

LOL Reggie: "maaaybe there was some contact down low...but no basket interference"

 

[julius]

They need an angry Lillard.

Tough to sweep the refs after beating them in SA.

 

[illmatic99]

wow not a foul aparently

 

[Strenuus]

There's a good bounce for us for once.

 

[illmatic99]

Don't get Dame angry, morons

 

[BrianFromWA]

just saying---if they're playing their "small" lineup, and they're the ones getting points in the paint, that's not good, right?

 

[VenomXL]

Another Parsons layup.

 

[Strenuus]

Can we at least cut this down to 6-10 before the half. They have a short bench...

 

[RoyToy]

I'm not convinced Batum is better than Parsons

 

[Nate4Prez]

That was a good no call by the refs and a great swat by Persons. Take off your homer glasses.

No one showed up to play. Satisfied with 2 wins I guess.

 

[Natebishop3]

Houston is shooting 70% from the floor and 80% from three.

They like to paint?

How many teams shooting 80% from three and 70% from the floor on a regular basis? They're 8-10 from deep right now. This has nothing to do with showing up. If we hadn't shown up, we would be down 30 right now.

I never really have been.

Bullshit. That's a foul. Every and 1 Dwight has had tonight had less contact. Put on your glasses.

 

[julius]

who said he was?

 

[Strenuus]

Okay... I'm going to try this again... They can't shoot THIS good can they?

Dude we aren't even trying on D

Nope. Slapped it off the glass.

I've read a bunch of posts claiming Nic is the 2nd best SF in the western conference , so.....

 

[KingSpeed]

Good news: our bench has 14 points already

 

[Natebishop3]

What are you supposed to do when they're shooting 80% from three? You can't stop the slashing if they're also hitting every single three.

Let's pretend they were only 40% from 3. We'd be within 2 right now. If only they'd cool off, we'd have a shot.

 

[Boise Blazer]

Can't wait for the halftime adjustments and the Rockets to cool off.
