GAME THREAD: THUNDER @ BLAZERS - 10/29/14, WEDNESDAY, 7:30 PM (PST), ESPN & KGW

[riverman]

Nico finds his shot

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Some life!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Batman and Robin!

 

[EGame]

now we have more offensive flow.

 

[BBert]

DWright plays great defense at times

Really. I thought wright absolutely sucked. He's been burned time and again. Even the block he got was after he got burned.

 

[EGame]

ibaka not even touched by the time the whistle was blown. what a shock.

 

[BrianFromWA]

Russell "The Show" Westbrook misses his 7th shot of the night. He's made 7.

 

[KingSpeed]

They've been OK, but nothing special.

Lopez had 7 offensive rebounds in the first half. That's not special? And other hustle plays.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Blake back with the starters... the curse of Nate McMillan is complete.

 

[julius]

Crap, that 4th foul hurts.

 

[BrianFromWA]

Lopez got fouled, but they whistle was being blown in anticipation of the contact. I hate that. Dviss...any thoughts?

 

[riverman]

Nico to Rolo is a good thing

 

[BBert]

Refs carried OKC in the first half esp Westbrook with all those bullshit foul calls.

 

[BrianFromWA]

and Perry Jones just snapped off an ankle bone

 

[EGame]

aldridge just watching okc rebound that. gg

 

[julius]

not enough effort on the rebounds.

 

[Natebishop3]

It's no surprise that Harden came from OKC originally. He and Westbrick are two of the best floppers in the league.

 

[BrianFromWA]

WE3L3Y!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Wes for 3! Crowd goes wild!

 

[EGame]

It's no surprise that Harden came from OKC originally. He and Westbrick are two of the best floppers in the league.

At least Durant plays legit (for the most part).

 

[riverman]

Agian Wes hits the big shot

 

[julius]

Oooh, I just noticed the names on the uniforms. I read Canzanos article on it and thought "who cares?"

but now that I've seen it, it looks wrong. Like, cheap FREE JERSEYS wrong.

 

[Natebishop3]

Wes for 3! Crowd goes wild!

Sly, the way you're painting the picture for us, it's like we're really there!

 

[illmatic99]

Dame just can't get into a rhythm. I woulda left him in there for a bit

 

[VenomXL]

I can't believe the Blazers aren't rebounding the ball better, second chance points are killing them.

 

[Natebishop3]

At least Durant plays legit (for the most part).

I'm so sick of the obvious flops being called in the NBA. It's just disgusting.

 

[Natebishop3]

Dame just can't get into a rhythm. I woulda left him in there for a bit

Me too. Who cares at this point. Let him play.

 

[magnifier661]

Okc is getting tired now. We got em in the fourth

 

[EGame]

Dame just can't get into a rhythm. I woulda left him in there for a bit

itd be better to put him in there when westbrook is getting his rest. More likely to get his rhythm then against Telfair.

 

[julius]

For those who have no idea what I'm talking about, the NBA made a change to the uniforms this year. Portland was one of 4 teams who had two tone lettering for the names on the uniforms. This year, they had to use just one (black for the home uniforms, white for the red and black uniforms).

To me, it's not visually pleasing. I liked the borders.
