Game thread: Blazers vs. Mavericks

[BrianFromWA]

I liked Greg ripping that away from Kidd. Needs to get pi$$ed more on the court. Ray Allen-ize someone.

I couldn't get a link, missed the first half, but from the radio it didn't sound like it was Sergio any more than anyone else.

From this thread it appears the refs cheat every call except when it's on Sergio.

The call on Sergio for a clear path foul was stupid, but when JJ Barea can get anywhere he wants to on the court at will, not to mention can be shaked off by JJ Barea you suck at defense. Refs have nothing to do with that. Nice attempt at turning it around again though

They're 7 for 8 this quarter. I guess I should blame the refs.

Need a new troll-boat there maxiep? You're getting pretty good at it.

And Bayless's was even worse from looking at the play by play.

The Serge squad -5

The Jerryd squad -7

Blakie, where are you?

Dude, you really need to quit with the Bayless vs Sergio thing. Yes, Sergio is a better "pure" PG, but Bayless is the better player by a mile, and when you have Roy as your SG, you can get away with not having a "pure" PG on your team.

Bayless is just flat out a better basketball player. It's not even close, and you need to stop. It's embarrassing.

+/- stats aren't accurate. At least, when I watch ESPN.com, at the beginning of the game, before ANY subs, different players have different +/-. Makes no sense.

 

[MARIS61]

nate is really pissing me off!!! Why must we CONSTANTLY switch the screens? That is what is getting us out of position all the time

It's the players, not Nate.

Nate says never switch.

 

[KingSpeed]

Bayless to ODEN!!! THANK YOU JERRYD!

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

SWEET pass by Bayless for the easy 2 for Oden

 

[BrianFromWA]

Good to see Bayless dump it off to Oden after drawing the D.

 

[KingSpeed]

Dallas is going to go cold. No one shoots 70% for a whole game. If we put defensive pressure on them, they'll fold and we'll win by 8.

 

[MAS RipCity]

Brandon's turnovers are killing us

 

[KingSpeed]

They simply MUST start missing.

 

[The Professional Fan]

Dallas is the best team I've ever seen. Jeez......

 

[BrianFromWA]

Seems like I haven't said this in a while, but this is hurtful to watch.

 

[MAS RipCity]

that 3 was the proverbial dagger, they just aren't missing..its not even Dirk or Jet, just scrubs

Don't bank on it. Dallas is the best shooting team in the history of the NBA

15 point game. No way Dallas gives up this lead. It would be inexcusable.

 

[KingSpeed]

Why a ZONE!??

 

[MAS RipCity]

Cut it down to single digits before the 4th, asking too much?

 

[KingSpeed]

Joel is stronger on defensive end than Oden by a mile.

 

[KingSpeed]

Cut it down to single digits before the 4th, asking too much?

Not at all.

 

[MadeFromDust]

Bayless is the only bright spot. We need to up his minutes.

Start him over Sergio!

 

[KingSpeed]

Bayless is pissed. He might get a T.

 

[MAS RipCity]

Why a ZONE!??

You got any other suggestions, coach?

 

[Rodolfo]

This game feels like we can come back. If they go a little cold in the 4th, we're right there.

 

[BrianFromWA]

Cut it down to single digits before the 4th, asking too much?

No, but we need to keep attacking the rim.

 

[MARIS61]

Should have left Sergio in, this is sad.

 

[Tortimer]

Joel is stronger on defensive end than Oden by a mile.

It's partially because Oden is afraid of fouling with block shots. He will evetually be a great defensive/block shots player.

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

Bayless!!!!!

 

[Rodolfo]

lovin' Jerryd right now
