Wtf Rudy? Shot a 3 jumping back on one foot?

He's been practicing his Sean Elliott impression...

 

[ehizzy3]

refs will see that they have only called 3 fouls on dallas...we will get some calls in the second half.

 

[ILOVEODEN]

I have seen this movie before on the road. It doesn't end well.

It's amazing how the refs aren't even gonna hide their favoritism! The Dallas fans must be feeling good about themselves. They know Stern wants this game to go in Dallas' favor.

Maybe one more if we are lucky

Just once, I'd like to see a game being called the same way for the home team and the road team.

Buzzed posting is drunk posting. Original post edited. To quote you "Spd can go fuck himself!"

I don't know whether to rep you or cry for a mod.

Horrible end to the first half. Fortunately we're only down 1. We just need to stay calm and be in range late.

 

[magnifier661]

There you go NBA.com tv! Talking shit about the officiating. Even they think it's full of shit!

Need to stop calling it a "game" and start calling it what it is.... a show.

Did they used to do that back in the early 90's?

 

[illmatic99]

Alright, Brandon. Enough with the passing. I hope he starts looking to score in the second half.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

I can't believe I miss Steve Javie.

 

[Natebishop3]

Keys to the game....

#1 don't get fucked over by the refs

#2 ........

I can't think of anything else right now.

Always been his motto. Third and 4th quarters are when he looks to score.

We're playing well enough to win right now. Just a few obvious fouls that they missed on our end.

Love the officiating bashing.

The only way you'd ever get this is for the game to be at a neutral venue, and the tickets split evenly between fans.

That, and for the NBA to be an actual sport, not sports entertainment.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Love the officiating bashing.

Shut it, Bavetta.

MM your attitude has gone straight into the toilet. If you don't like it here, leave.

Neat story

It's like ever since Nate got resigned, his only defining feature is that he dislikes the posters here.

Careful now, he's gonna complain to SPD again.

The start of the 2nd half is KEY to the Blazers winning or losing. Start off strong, regain the lead and have the momentum going into the 4th, and they can pull it off. Have one of their crappy 2nd half starts, and the game Dallas's to lose.

I kept thinking you were just misspelling Spud's name lol!

The key is outscoring them by two in the second half.

Yeah, it seems like every post is either playing a victim or whining about the other posters. Sounds remarkably like someone else who still posts here.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

I actually have to agree with Mediocre Man here. I think the "8-on-5" thing is being taken a bit overboard tonight.

Plus my fingers swell up when I drink; makes posting on iPhone extra hard. Same thing happens to my other extremities whenever I see tlong's Jessica alba avatar.

The Blazers need to be like the "Honey Badger"
