KINGS @ BLAZERS - GAME THREAD

[Mediocre Man]

Joel goes out and a 1 pt lead is a 7 pt deficit.

Fuck me.

Win or lose, our perimeter defensive scheme is horrible.

 

[B-Roy]

He can't play 48 minutes.

That's why Oden was so important.

 

[KingSpeed]

So what do you think? Will we win this one? We're pretty much cooked if we don't.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Sergio's in. Time to make our run.

 

[KingSpeed]

God love Sergio!!!

 

[BrianFromWA]

What pick was Casspi drafted at?

23. one pick after us.

 

[KingSpeed]

Sergio's in. Time to make our run.

LOL

 

[B-Roy]

Joel is +15, Howard is -16.

That's the game right there.

 

[Mediocre Man]

What pick was Casspi drafted at?

1 after Portland's pick

 

[BrianFromWA]

Was that a switch?

 

[MARIS61]

He's more than decent. He's an up and coming All Star. He and Coach Paul have lifted the worst team in the NBA to mediocrity.

He's at least as good as Roy was his first year. Probably more diverse.

"Udrih over Blake." -Mike Barrett

 

[KingSpeed]

Udrih over Blake

 

[Nikolokolus]

What was that people were saying about Blake on Udrih?

 

[MARIS61]

23. one pick after us.

Oops!

 

[PHXBlazer1]

23. one pick after us.

That's what I was afraid of, I had hoped my memory failed me though.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Nice and pick and roll by Jerryd to Joel.

 

[KingSpeed]

Nothing is going to be easy for us this season. Not even home wins against the Kings.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Bayless is not a point.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

OMG Steve Blake is the best PG in the NBA!!!

 

[BrianFromWA]

That's what I was afraid of, I had hoped my memory failed me though.

Where other "good" teams play 8 deep, Portland (last year and early this year) was a rarity - successfully playing 9-10 deep!


Thus, why we are playing the way we play now?



[our depth is gone - and we don't "really" have the star power to win with 8-9 deep!]



PF position is aweful. Points in the paint kill us!

 

[BrianFromWA]

way to go, Blakey!

 

[KingSpeed]

B L A K E

 

[BoomChakaLaka]

Oh my!

Blake hit one!

 

[B-Roy]

Bayless doing well.

 

[KingSpeed]

Blake with the rebound!

 

[Sean.ivity]

lol Rice said "MERRY CHRISTMAS!" after blake made that 3.

 

[BoomChakaLaka]

Bayless doing well.

Got to admit it!

 

[MARIS61]

I hope the Blazers are watching Sac closely.

They could learn a thing or two about offense, defense, and teamwork.
