Lakers @ Blazers 2/6/10 GAME THREAD

Welcome to our community

Be a part of something great, join today!

It'd really be nice to have Przybilla and Oden again, fuck. So fucking gay.
 
True. I forgot nate missed those dunks, layups, easy shots, while throwing away inbounds passes and getting killed on the glass. What an idiot!

I forgot Nate was the coach and hasn't fixed the inbounding issue that's been going on his entire stay here! I forgot Nate was the coach and was supposed to adjust accordingly while the game is going on!

Silly me, Nate is just the guy who goes "guys we gotta rebound, gotta hit the boards, remember to hit the boards, grab the balls, go up for the rebound guys, GOTTA GET A REBOUND" in timeouts! My mistake.
 
Interesting that the margin of defeat was the same as the margin of difference on the boards. I'm sorry, but Aldridge and Howard being outrebounded by 30-12 is absolutely abysmal. I didn't watch the game - only caught the occasional update on-line - but that had to have been a painfully bad game to watch, after the first 20 minutes or so of playing time.

They managed to set a team record with fewest offensive rebounds in the process with two.

Do you think they play bump all day at practice?

You're right, nate should spend an hour going over invounds after made baskets because Rudy doesn't already know better.
 
Odom dominated


I liked the part of the game where Ron walked over a fallen Batum...I enjoyed it and Im sure you guys did too

Atrocious. That's lack of effort, lack of focus, lack of something...

I remember someone once saying that close losses are on the coach, because you didn't draw up the right play, or you didn't anticipate the opposing coach's move at a critical time.

But blowouts are on the team, and especially, the players on the floor.

The Blazers are not 17 points worse than the LA Lakers at home (the injuries are no excuse, since LA was without Kobe). I realize Aldridge had a very good game against the Spurs the other night, and he may have been more important to that victory than any other player - but 5 rebounds, when Lamar Odom put up 22 is inexcusable. And I like Aldridge... liked him at Texas, and like him as a Blazer. But he's got a long way to go, still.
 
Man, what a butt-ugly game by the Blazers tonight.

No doubt.. ugh, just a deflating game. Being at the game tonight, it seemed like the guys and the crowd just weren't into it as much with Kobe out. It didn't feel like going against the Lakers.

Doesn't excuse, though, the crappy play and bricked shots in the second half. They looked flat-out horrible. Very disappointing effort, but oh well, we move on. It's a shame the streak had to end this way.

Lakers without Kobe

Blazers w/o Roy/Oden/Przybilla

Idk, seems unfair to me.

And my god is Bynum soft.
 
I'll say this though, despite this being the largest loss margin of the season, the fact that Portland's players have missed 240+ games and have only just now lost to a team by 17 or more is something. Not even the Lakers can say that.

Oof. Talk about reaching for the silver lining, but nice try nonetheless
 
Great game :]

Kingspeed, where are you buddy?
 
I like the part when Bynum couldn't move fast enough laterally to keep up with the 37 year old Juwan Howard.
 
He must have had that the entire season. He's looked Sabonis-slow the entire season.
 
Agreed that Bynum looked awful - and travelled on his one decent post move of the game - but our whole team took the last 3 quarters off. We had complete control up 9 when Martell missed back-to-back wide open threes that could have really blown the game open. When Martell's shot isn't falling, his defense drops off - and he proceeded to leave Artest open 3 straight times at the close of the half. Just a terrible performance all around, but by Webster in particular.
 
I was at the game tonight, my first Laker game mind you. The team played like shit, no other way to put it. The only person to drive into the paint was bayless, everyone else sat around taking jumpers. Too many wasted 3 point attempts, not enough hustle, and why in the fuck is Steve Blake on our team?????????:smack:


Oh yeah, FUCK Nate McMillan too........it's time for you to go dude!

Well, after a game like this, what else can you pull out of it other than, "I would have rather watched Jersey Shore than see the Blazers play like that?"

Nothing is ever that bad. As for the game the only positive is that it's over.
 
Just got home from the game... *sigh* I wish LaMarcus and Martell would not have played like crap tonight. Odom was a BEAST. And I NEVER wanna hear Laker fans say "Its only a regular season game" while downplaying a loss in the Rose Garden... they were celebrating like they won the title in there lol. Oh well. Sat by a couple classy Laker fans and had a good time talking with them. Unfortunately there were 2 annoying ass 15 year old Laker fan girls below us which got old real quick. Oh well, congrats Lakers.. you guys kicked our asses tonight. :cheers:
 
oh and I enjoyed the half time entertainment tonight MUCH more than the bowl flipping unicycle lady ;)

And good game to Portland. I certainly didn't expect this, Pau still plays like a little bitch.
