Whoa... that was quick. Nice Move, BRoy.

Nice move by Nic!

 

[Darkwebs]

Nic abusing barea in the post! Yes!

 

[Natebishop3]

Nice pass!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

First team to 4 wins!

Make that 16.

 

[illmatic99]

This is just a different Brandon here.

 

[MadeFromDust]

Nice Roy!

 

[Steelblazer]

Brandon's back

 

[Natebishop3]

Finally some rebounding!

 

[Natebishop3]

That pass by Rudy was horrible... lol

 

[Natebishop3]

Nic is picking up the slack!

 

[Darkwebs]

Roy is affecting us positively!!

 

[Natebishop3]

Good end to the quarter. Way to close it out guys!

 

[illmatic99]

Great finish!

 

[B-Roy]

Damn, Roy. Just goes to show you what confidence does to a player.

 

[MadeFromDust]

good 1st quarter. Keep it up guys!

 

[magnifier661]

There you go! There you go!!!!

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Well done.

 

[Darkwebs]

The bench (Roy and Nic) really gave us a boost

 

[andalusian]

Keep it up Brandon. Keep it up. The Mavs have no answer for him.

 

[illmatic99]

CJ's +/- in this series is off the charts.

He's already +8 tonight in just 2:56.

 

[Darkwebs]

Damn, Roy. Just goes to show you what confidence does to a player.

I know, right? Guess McMillan was right when he said a lot of Roy's struggles were mental

 

[magnifier661]

Great job Blazers!!!!! You weathered the 1st quarter urgency of Dallas. This is the time they are second guessing themselves.

Key points: Jason Terry looks a little worried about his performance. He looks like he's thinking too much.

Blazers got the memo and is forcing Dirk to go right.

Blazer guards are constantly attacking the basket.

All good signs!

Watching from the old folks' home?

No worse. Sportsbook at grand Sierra hotel casino in Reno. Long story. Don't ask.

 

[Natebishop3]

Barea as a shooter is something I'm okay with.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

YEGA!

 

[Natebishop3]

Good time to find your range Rudy!

 

[Darkwebs]

Rudy!!!! Finally!!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

FINALLY!

RUDY!

 

[Natebishop3]

Awww I thought we had that block!
