LET'S GO BLAZERS!!

 

[KingSpeed]

I want this. Go Blazers!

 

[crowTrobot]

game is on WGN nice! although just in time for the power to go out here on the coast

 

[Boise Blazer]

There are some interesting match ups in this game (even more so if Rose was playing). They did play last night and lose against the Clips so I'm sure they got in late. Hopefully we can get something from our bench but I'm not holding my breath.

 

[THE HCP]

AAAGGAAGAGAGAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

 

[crowTrobot]

AAAGGAAGAGAGAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

sound of HCP splooging his keyboard

 

[Denny Crane]

Go B______!

 

[crowTrobot]

go Pacific Power and Light!

 

[MickZagger]

Will the game be blacked out on WGN? I can't remember the last time we played on WGN.

 

[jlprk]

Go B______!

It took me a minute, but now I get it!

 

[Denny Crane]

It took me a minute, but now I get it!

I never root against the Blazers, except when they play the Bulls. But I'm really torn

 

[magnifier661]

I missed the last two games. Can't wait to watch this one. Not going to call a winner just yet. I think the bulls got experience together and a damn good d. Blazers have energy, home crowd and a two game win streak. Hopefully we have more pluses then negatives and come out with a win!

 

[julius]

Hm...WGN America is showing the game?

isn't that kind of against the rules?


shhhhhh...

 

[julius]

Why do they call it the opening tap?

 

[THE HCP]

Nolan Smith is back FAMS!

 

[jlprk]

I never root against the Blazers, except when they play the Bulls. But I'm really torn

Why are you torn? Between your loved team and your income source?

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

Nolan Smith is back FAMS!

That's great! As long as he stays on the bench.

 

[julius]

defense is crap. offense is sloppy.

and man Noah's shot is fucking ugly.

 

[BrianFromWA]

and lots of jumpers.

 

[HailBlazers]

JJ Hickson is Damn good but he should be coming off the bench

 

[julius]

does Portland even try to play defense?

 

[Denny Crane]

Why are you torn? Between your loved team and your income source?

Between my #1 team and the team I read the most about.

 

[Darkwebs]

does Portland even try to play defense?

That's exactly what I was thinking. LMA doesn't make much use of his height and lengthy arms on the defensive side.

 

[BrianFromWA]

LMA might still be nursing the hip, but Leonard's quicker at going out on the P&R D and getting back than LMA is.

 

[Haakzilla]

...I think Batum was just talking shit to Joakim in French, probably telling him how ridiculous his hairdo looks!

 

[julius]

oooh meyers....pass to nic!

 

[Denny Crane]

Leonard is getting fouls called on him like he's a rookie.

 

[B-Roy]

These slow starts have got to stop.

 

[HailBlazers]

Leonard is getting fouls called on him like he's a rookie.

Yup, its the only way he's gonna learn

 

[Darkwebs]

Impressive shot by Barton after taking some contact
