Opening night! 10/31/2012 Lakers @ Blazers - Game Thread!

I know It's One Game™ and It's The Lakers™ and all, but Wes is looking good.

Playing in the Rose Garden has definitely gotten into the Lakers' head. Their futility here has gone for so long it's ingrained. It's cultural.

 

[Blazinaway]

I like how Meyers is really getting to Dwight.

LOL Nik can't seem to figure that out

 

[craigehlo]

Meyers is alright. Drummond for the Pistons had a pretty brutal game stat-wise today. It takes the bigs longer to develop.

the entire team, sans Nolan, is lookin good

Like Portland in Arco in the 90's.

I know it's early...but Anthony Davis is gonna have to put up huge numbers to beat out Dame for ROY

21/7 vs Duncan in a loss tonight

John Hollinger ‏@johnhollinger Lillard's gonna be so bummed now when he plays non-Laker point guards.

hahahahahahahahaha

Kobe is the Blazers' best player right now.

Again...

Damian Lillard is the first NBA player with at least 21 points and nine assists in his first career game since LeBron James on Oct. 29, 2003 @jwquick

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Now it's time to injure our best players.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Fuckin' cheap!

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Rung Nic's bell.

Time for Lillard. Lets slam the door

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Looks like MWP knocked the good right out of Nic.

1 point in almost 2+ minutes. Don't win games that way.

Is that about us or them?

 

[julius]

Every Blazer fan who has lived through the last 15 years knows that 16 points is not a big enough lead against the Lakers.

Needs to be about 16 more.

 

[B-Roy]

Watching Nolan after watching Lillard is like torture.

Portland scored 1 point since they hit their chalupa shot with over 9 minutes to go. that was my point.

With Sheed, Smitty and the rest of those chokers maybe.

Wow

How many had LA scored in that time?

 

[Blazinaway]

Watching Nolan after watching Lillard is like torture.

yep

 

[PHXBlazer1]

I love this team

 

[Nikolokolus]

gotta ask, what the fuk do U want from a barely 20 yr old rook in his first NBA game and against Dwight Howard?

I don't really feel like arguing when the Blazers are playing well. Have a nice night.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

I can totally dig this team.
