ROUND 1, GAME 1: BLAZERS @ ROCKETS - 4/20/14, SUNDAY, 6:30 PM (PST), TNT & KGW (1 Viewer)

[PapaG]

Posting up LMA on Jones, and Wes on Harden, is going to make this an extended series.

How the hell can Beverley play this well so soon after a torn meniscus?

 

[Natebishop3]

Mo cannot guard Parsons. That's a bad matchup.

 

[PapaG]

Parsons could very well kill us.

LMA could very well kill Houston.

 

[Natebishop3]

AND ONE!

 

[PapaG]

Cortisone.

 

[EGame]

LMA could very well kill Houston.

Agreed. Great D on Howard by LMA too.

 

[Natebishop3]

There is no fear in this team. This is a completely different scenario from game one against Houston five years ago. We are fucking pumped.

 

[Strenuus]

LMA. Go to the paint. Every. TIme.

This is exciting so far!

 

[PDXFonz]

Love what I see but they need to do this for 192 minutes, not just 8

 

[DamianLillard#0]

Asik on LMA is a huge.. this might a big battle..

 

[Natebishop3]

Cortisone.

He'll pay for it later.

 

[PapaG]

Well yeah, but compared to the last time the Blazers played Houston in a Game One, this is awesome!

 

[EGame]

There is no fear in this team. This is a completely different scenario from game one against Houston five years ago. We are fucking pumped.

Yup. At that time everyone but Roy was scared lol.

 

[MickZagger]

Howard getting his shit sent back was glorious!

 

[PapaG]

He'll pay for it later.

He seems like a guy who doesn't care, nor does the training staff in Houston.

 

[PapaG]

I think Jeremy Lin is going to play a bigger role in this series than Beverley.

 

[Hobbesarable]

They need to keep posting up Wes when Harden is guarding him. Brutalize him!

 

[Natebishop3]

He seems like a guy who doesn't care, nor does the training staff in Houston.

Yeah. Those guys must have gone to the same schools as the old Blazers staff.

 

[Natebishop3]

LA still does that swipe at the ball.

 

[EGame]

That would have been a dunk.

 

[Natebishop3]

OH SHIT! TROB almost broke the world with that one!

 

[DamianLillard#0]

ouwww shitt TROB!!!

 

[PapaG]

Nice of Kevin Colabro to mention the CHI/POR trade of Tyrus Thomas for LMA. Pritchard's biggest deal, and his best deal. What was Chicago thinking?

 

[Natebishop3]

Hahahahah suck it Beverley!

 

[Natebishop3]

That wasn't a great idea by Robinson. He should have passed it out. There were three guys around him.

 

[EGame]

TRob.

 

[MickZagger]

Dunk that shit Robinson!!!!!!! Good grief!

 

[PapaG]

I LOVE Robinson's energy, but slow down after getting the offensive board and get the ball to a scorer!!

 

[Natebishop3]

Come on TRob... calm down bro.
