Honestly-who is excited about the next game

Welcome to our community

Be a part of something great, join today!

We don't play on Thursday. We play on Friday.

Doh! I was thinking it was Tuesday then again Thursday. This is good. Now I just have to convince the wife to not spend too much time at a wedding reception we're attending Friday night.

Gramps...
 
No, not at all. My worst fear going into the last game of the season was that we'd have to play the Rockets. Then we got home court and I'm thinking maybe it'll be ok.

But it wasn't. Saturday's loss was just about the most demoralizing loss I can remember. I knew it would be a tough matchup. But I didn't think they would mop the floor with us like that. At home. So depressing.
 
I am scared sideways. If we come out strong, then we can win the game. At this point, I am managing my expectations: let's win this one, PLEASE!

Excited? Nervous as all fuck!

I also didn't watch or read any sports stuff for the most part. I didn't even visit any boards for the most part. Hardly visited here. It did affect me big time. I think it was not only losing, but how we loss. How badly we loss. I'd be sitting watching tv and suddenly say 'fuck!' and Karla would ask me what? And I'd say I can't believe we lost! Just couldn';t get my mind off of it.

We'll win tomorrow though. We have to! I posted all those tickets and would hate to only use two of them!!

I actually think we can win this in 6. We win tomorrow and one of the next 2 and the pressure will be on them and they'll choke! After getting HCA and losing it back to us they'll fold up! Ya, that's it!
 
Nervous. Don't want to see Blake getting beat like a rookie against Brooks.
 
I will admit to being kinda bummed yesterday! Today I was too busy to think hoops! Ripped out my whole yard, putting in new sod tomorrow! I am very excited for tomorrow's game. I think Nate and the players will make the proper adjustments.

Don't let your dogs piss and shit in the yard now!
 
Your wife so ugly when she applied for the ugly contest they told her 'NO Professionals'!
 
Your mom is so fat, she sat on a Nintendo GameCube and turned it into a Gameboy!
 
Yo mama so fat you feed her with a slingshot.
 
I"m not. I'm going to sit back and relax, and let whatever happens, happen. I don't have my hopes up too high about them winning this series. They should get a role in the SNL skit, "Opps I crapped my pants", because that's what they did Saturday.
 
I am excited. I am ready. Bring on Houston. We're down 0-1... so what? The Portland Trailblazers have astounded me all season. Their excellent play at home. The way they matured in front of our eyes game by game. They way they finished the season strong. Winning 54 games. Handing the Lakers their ass in the RG. Getting HCA. At different times, they've had their faults as a team and as individuals, but in the end they produced results.

Playoffs: Whether you’ve lost game one b/c of one missed free throw (like Boston) or whether you got blown-out and disgraced on your home court (like Portland), the series is still gonna be 0-1 after one. The real question is the: how do we respond? If we get blow-out again... forget it, series over. However, if we come back and play Blazers ball, the basketball we've come accustomed to all year, then Houston's gonna be demoralized. If we come out and show Houston who we really are, then Houston will come to realize that this team will not go down without a fight!
 
The loss was heartbreaking for me, I just went to sleep for a long time right after the game. Horrible feeling after waiting 6 years to see that. I too didn't want to see anything basketball related for about a day. But I'm anxious and excited for Game 2, I want some fucking REVENGE.

THERE is hope to win this series.

Nope. You have to lose 4 games to get eliminated. Losing game 2 is not a death sentence for us.
 
I'm pumped. I still think they can win this series.
it's not as dire as the hot and cold crowd here makes it. Without question I'm super excited for tomorrow night. As a huge hoops fan with my favorite team competing, of course I'm pumped.

I'm ready!! Man, I can't wait! 7pm can't get here soon enough!

Damn, over 12 hrs to go!! This is going to be so tough watching the mins slowly click away!
 
I'm excited, but more to see how they respond than worrying about the scoreboard.
Exactly. All I really want is a great effort by the Blazers. I want them to fight and scrap and give as well as they get. I want to know that we can play with these Rockets--and I want the Rockets to know that.

If the Blazers win, I'll be very happy. But I'll also be happy if they prove they are in the same league as the Rockets.
 
Is that what's it has came to? Just want to show we are in the same league as the Rockets? Fuck that! I want a win and a blow out win would even be better!!

GO BLAZERS!!
 
When temperatures hit 100, I'm too damn hot to get excited. But I am wearing a Blazers shirt to work and looking forward to the game. I think the mood at the Rose Garden will be different, more tentative. But give them something to cheer about and they will.

I want to party like it's last Wednesday.
 
IDK. It's 12 hrs until game time and I'm already in the 'TEAR THE ROCKETS APART!' mode. I think by game time it's going to be even crazier than the last game and this time the team will follow suit!
