GAME THREAD: Round 1, Game 2 - Blazers @ Mavericks, 4.19.11, 6:30 PM

I wish we were playing the Lakers.

I wish we were playing the Spurs without Ginobili.

 

[magnifier661]

Nothing going our way. Can't hit free-throws, the other team is shooting out of their mind.

 

[DUB]

I took a day off of work for this?

About time that little midget gets a call against him. You shouldn't get the benefit of the doubt just because you're a dwarf!

 

[magnifier661]

I wish we were playing the Lakers.

I said it and so many thought I was crazy. Dallas is a good team. I said all they have to do is shoot hot and we're done. I knew Dallas has that in em for at least 1 series. Watch in round 2, they will be dismal against the Lakers.

Lol

 

[Natebishop3]

Barea reminds me of Tyron Lue. I hate them both.

 

[Natebishop3]

This team looks beaten.

 

[julius]

Game.

Over.

It's hard not to think series over. Winning 4 out of 5 games, with 2 of them in Dallas, and without a superstar who can just go nuts on the Blazers AND the other reasons we all know?

I guess we should be happy they didn't get a lottery pick in this shitty draft.

 

[yenniedn]

Why the fuck do we wait until so late in the 24sec clock to start our offense???

 

[Natebishop3]

No and 1? Riiiiiiiiiiiiight.

 

[FlyinSouth]

Barea needs the Ryan Appleby treatment

 

[yenniedn]

Wesley has gotten zero respect on the and-1's all season long. Some stat geek pull up a league wide and-1 stat and I'll bet Wes is in the bottom 5%!

 

[Darkwebs]

We still have time. Gotta stay composed and sharp

It's the Mavs stalwart defense.... they're known for that, right?

 

[magnifier661]

Yep, Nate is looking at his bench. Okay Fernandez --- Bad night, Roy -- No, Mills - Yeah right. Who in the hell steps up off the bench. Even Batum is starting to get cold. Sucks to be Nate right now.

 

[OSUBlazerfan]

THAT WAS A FUCKING FOUL

Well maybe, but this team doesn't care to guard the 3 point line. There is your game.

This team is due for an overhaul in the offseason.... but I don't see how they're going to be able to do it.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

games like these makes me want to run into a brick wall. we need to get out of this first round, I'm going NUTS here.

 

[magnifier661]

Well hopefully game 1 and 2 gets all the good shooting out of Dallas. Can't keep this up for 7 games can they? Can they? Anyone?!?!

Can't do anything unless we add a player like Batum and that's not gonna happen.

 

[Natebishop3]

And..... that's it. Oh well. Glad I didn't waste money on tickets.

 

[Natebishop3]

Don't need to. Only need to keep it up for four games.

 

[magnifier661]

Game over. Fellas we are now 0-2. Let's pray we can shift our game at home.

 

[KingSpeed]

Well, everyone did say we'd win in 6!

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Hawthorne Bridge, midnight anyone?

Who fucking cares. The series is over. The season is over. I hate the NBA. I hate the Blazers. I feel like a battered spouse. Every year I come back for the same pain and abuse because I hope it'll get better. It'll never get better. I want a divorce, Blazers. I want it badly.

 

[magnifier661]

Don't need to. Only need to keep it up for four games.

What's going to piss me off is knowing Dallas will start shooting poorly in round 2. I wish we had the Lakers in the first round.

 

[Natebishop3]

That's okay... The Mavs can move on and get jobbed in the second round so Cuban can go back to being the victim.
