GAME THREAD: Round 1, Game 5 - Blazers @ Mavericks, 4.25.11, 5:30 PM

It's funny how suddenly we are getting more calls after the game has been decided

We are attacking the defense more as well. Wallace has taken it to the chest of the defense a few times. The team in the first half wasn't "seeking contact"
 
TurtleBlazers! This team acts like they are just happy to here. No testicular fortitude. Batum and Mathews act too young and that they will have many more opportunities. Rudy just too Euro. Camby and Dre too old. Crash just acts content to be the FNG. BRoy and Lma are the only ones who act like they are embarrassed by being erased the last two years. No urgency. We pissed away a golden opportunity and rendered Roys last game heroics just an ironic footnote.
 
Wonder why Nate didn't go to the big lineup in the second half. Shoulda put CJ in for Camby, insted of Roy in the third quarter.
 
Wow at least they have a chance to get it to single digits, like that means anything!
 
This loss is on Aldridge. When did he decide to play like it was 2008 again?
 
Actually, I would definitely call that a blessing in disguise.

Yeah, but it's not a terminal tumor. Who else just said that as Arnold?
 
why the hell would you foul someone like that, late in the game, when your team is going to win?

That's pretty stupid.
 
I'd like to see one of our scrubs go get a flagrant foul. It's playoff basketball and you just got embarrassed. Time to put some blood on the floor. Actually, that time was in the third quarter, but better late than never.
 
Wow their fans are pathetic. The Rose Garden would be erupting right now. How embarrassing!
 
What's made this loss even more painful was having to listen to the Mavs announcers on NBATV.
 
I think we need GW more
he need to attack more
he style easily to get foul
and then we can see LA is cold
so we need gw
 
wow nice screen jackasses...would've liked to see someone hit brian cardinal back
 
No doubt about it -- we played like shit in the 2nd half, and didn't deserve to take this one on the road.

That said, fuck the home-cooked, half-baked officiating in this series. "Home court advantage" is one thing -- the numbers of these past 5 games are something else.
 
When Roy became "The Man" again after game 4. Not Roy's fault at all, it's something in LA's head

I don't think that's it. I think Aldridge has stopped trying to force the post the past two games.
 
We didnt deserve to win tonight. Our effort on the offensive boards was beyond pathetic. Our defensive intensity was horrible. I'm pissed!
 
Because the refs aren't calling it tight on Portland any longer.

Were you one of the ones commenting on how Dallas fans were complaining about the officiating? Refs rewarded the aggressive team. Portland should have recieved more calls, but in the end, Portland played like shit anyway.
 
I'm waiting for Magnifier's thread entitled "I just booked a ticket for Saturday to Dallas for game 7...we got this"

:MARIS61:
 
This is going 7.

Not if we don't change our ways. We've gotten our asses kicked the past two games. We got lucky in Game 4. Dallas has gotten physical and we haven't matched.
