Pacers @ Blazers 1/22/11 GAME THREAD

[Darkwebs]

GO BLAZERS!

 

[Darkwebs]

Will we start out slow again? Will good Wes be playing or the other guy?

 

[Darkwebs]

Batum hits a mid range jumper for the 1st basket of the game. Sweet stroke.

 

[Darkwebs]

LaMarcus way off on his first jumper.

 

[Darkwebs]

Collison is too quick for us. We better watch out for him

 

[Darkwebs]

Joel is offensively impotent

 

[illmatic99]

Are we seriously losing another player?

Dre out with the stomach flu. MB thinks he's done for the night.

 

[Darkwebs]

So Dre played the first couple minutes just to get a streak of consecutive games played going?

 

[Darkwebs]

Patty bring the energy off the bench. Nice hustle

 

[Darkwebs]

Joel is a scoring machine all of a sudden.

 

[Darkwebs]

Air ball on the free throw. Nice one, Joel. hahaha

 

[Darkwebs]

LaMarcus with a horrible start to the game.

 

[Darkwebs]

The Pacers are scoring a bunch in the paint.

 

[Darkwebs]

Our shooting and rebounding are atrocious.

 

[Darkwebs]

Pacers are playing good D

 

[Darkwebs]

Batum is looking good at least

[Darkwebs]

We are getting outhustled on the boards.

[Darkwebs]

Armon will get a chance tonight to play

 

[VanillaGorilla]

So Dre played the first couple minutes just to get a streak of consecutive games played going?

...No. He probably just wanted to try to play.

 

[Darkwebs]

DANTE! What a rejection

 

[LameR]

A Johnson sighting! Good to see with Mills missing shots and not doing work on d.

Could...could this be McMillan not being stubborn with rotations?

 

[BrianFromWA]

we have three shots in the paint. They have 8. They have 5 shots b/w the FT line and the 3pt line (a.k.a. the most inefficient shot in basketball), we have 8.

Not tough to see why we're behind.

 

[Darkwebs]

15-24, Blazers down 9. Why do we love to spot the opponent a bunch of points every game?

 

[Rhal]

The refs are letting both teams play and the pacers are taking advantage of that. Were getting some decent outside shots but with LA getting nothing below the basket the pant is just packed and we should be able to hit some outside shots to take advantage of that.

 

[BrianFromWA]

I'm interested in seeing what Armon/Wes/Batum/LMA/Joel does on the D end.

 

[Darkwebs]

LaMarcus needs to rebound. He was flat footed there.

 

[Darkwebs]

Wow, LaMarcus' defensively rebounding is horrible

 

[Darkwebs]

Here comes Marks to save the day...
