GAME THREAD: Round 1, Game 1 - Blazers @ Mavericks, 4.16.11, 6:30 PM

And now the Mavs can't miss..... sigh.

We're falling in love with the three.

I'm done discussing this with you. I'm not a mod anymore so you can feel free to ignore me

Good close-out by Roy on Peja. Gotta get the rebounds.

 

[BrianFromWA]

Kidd and Peja shooting 3's is a good game plan for us. who cares if they happen to roll in a couple 3's each...that won't continue. The easy j's by dirk and the long jumpers by us scare me. Get LMA in the paint abusing someone

 

[Natebishop3]

WTF.... now we're playing all uptight. What happened during that timeout?

 

[Minstrel]

Wow, Portland seems brain-dead. Get Aldridge in the post and enter it to him. One possession after another with no post-up from Aldridge and barely any touches at all for him recently.

Dallas is giving it to Dirk nearly every possession. Imagine that.

 

[B-Roy]

WTF.... now we're playing all uptight. What happened during that timeout?

They're hitting shots. That's about it.

 

[BrianFromWA]

see? That's what I'm talking about. If DAL is putting the game into the hands of long-range shooting by Kidd and Peja, we're just fine.

 

[PapaG]

Dallas hits a few threes. That's what they do. No need to panic at all. Portland will have plenty of opportunities to make a run.

 

[Natebishop3]

And this is what's become of the dunk contest.... a commercial.

 

[PapaG]

Anyhow, I'm off to the other board. If I want to hear about how shitty Roy and Matthews are, I'll email MIXUM.

Later, and Go Blazers!!!

 

[Natebishop3]

You know, I thought this was going to be another bullshit series, but the refs are calling it pretty evenly.

 

[Minstrel]

Matthews, of course, someone you spent many posts talking about how shitty he was.

 

[ILOVEODEN]

Nate the worst in game coach in the history of the NBA LMA no touches

Wait...other board?

 

[Natebishop3]

Matthews, of course, someone you spent many posts talking about how shitty he was.

Like they'd invite him hahahaha

 

[BrianFromWA]

if you're down with leaving the community b/c of what one poster's thoughts on the game are, then multiply that by 200 users and you understand why one person's self-acknowledged trolling is no longer around.
Have a great night! Hope to see you back soon!

 

[BrianFromWA]

at this point, I don't know why we're not going into the paint every time, either LMA or a clearout on a guard. We're having problems with Barea...just foul the dude out.

 

[illmatic99]

Since when did S2 become THE HILLS? Freakin drama queen.

 

[illmatic99]

Barea and Terry are getting to the paint @ will when we're in our zone. This is not encouraging.

And Wesley let those first two fouls completely get in his head. Hope he steps up in the second half.

 

[ILOVEODEN]

Nate should bench LMA right now. We need him for game 2

 

[BrianFromWA]

Thank you, Andre. Good play out of the TO

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Wow, nice pass Batum!

 

[B-Roy]

Damn, getting killed on the boards.

 

[BrianFromWA]

I'm about ready to see some more LMA domination

 

[ILOVEODEN]

good thing nate benched lma and got him out of his flow

 

[ILOVEODEN]

Roy= worst defender in the league. Nate = benching your best players when they are on fire

 

[illmatic99]

Why did Dre have to shoot that?

 

[BrianFromWA]

Roy= worst defender in the league. Nate = benching your best players when they are on fire

JJ Barea and Steve Nash say hello

 

[BrianFromWA]

Why did Dre have to shoot that?

No idea. Andre shooting 10% 3pt jumpers is worse than LMA shooting contested 18footers.

 

[ILOVEODEN]

JJ Barea and Steve Nash say hello

Nate on his way to losing with the best talent again......SHOCKING
