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

[EGame]

Bench and Batum gave them all the momentum in the world. Thanks you guys.

 

[Natebishop3]

So Rolo is grabbing the rebound and three guys are slapping the shit out of him.

 

[BBert]

Fuck

 

[PDXFonz]

Ugly fucking quarter...

 

[Strenuus]

Well, this sucks.

 

[Natebishop3]

What the fuck is going on out there!!!!!!!!!!

Nic.

Batum.

 

[KingSpeed]

Season over!!

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Definitely playing like the worst team in e playoffs... Should have sold our place to LA.

 

[Strenuus]

I like how a 20 second timeout is just enough time, apparently, for 2 minutes of commercials....

 

[Natebishop3]

So Nic's line right now:

2 points 1-2 shooting, 2 rebounds, 0 assists

Parson's line from now:

17 points, 7-9 shooting, 5 rebounds, 0 assists

 

[Strenuus]

Season over!!

How Ironic. Can you ignore yourself?

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Season over!!

Like it or not, we have to lose three more times.

 

[B-Roy]

Take out the bench Terry. It'd the playoffs. Don't be stubborn.

 

[Natebishop3]

Does it surprise anyone that it was our bench that let Houston back in the game and gave them all the momentum?

 

[jlprk]

Nic has to be the most overrated defender in the league. Parsons just fucking schooled him.

He's overrated only in Portland. The rest of the league doesn't give a shit about him.

Josh McRoberts, whom we dumped, plays exactly the same game as Batum.

 

[julius]

Glad to see Nic came into the playoffs hoping to send a message.

Upset that the message he's sending is "ole"

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Does it surprise anyone that it was our bench that let Houston back in the game and gave them all the momentum?

Momentum coincidentally shifted after they stopped calling it key tacky fouls in our favor. We were being propped up.

 

[BBert]

Should have rested Nico sooner We need better backup wing players

 

[TripTango]

Season over!!

Heh... Indeed it is.

But as far as the 2nd quarter goes, let's give credit where it is due -- Parsons almost singlehandedly lifted the Rockets back into contention.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Lol this is overreaction central... This series is gonna be all about runs. Both teams will get down by 7-10 then 5 minutes later be up by 7-10.

 

[Sinobas]

I had a feeling Chandler Parsons was going to kill us this series. He's so much better than Batum, we'll be fortunate when Batum's contract expires, he's sooooo overpaid.

 

[BBert]

TRob has great energy, but he just can't get the ball in the basket.

 

[Natebishop3]

Dame needs to take over.

 

[Natebishop3]

We have completely collapsed.

 

[MickZagger]

We need to set a couple good hard picks on Beverly

 

[Natebishop3]

We need to set a couple good hard picks on Beverly

That's right in Meyers' wheel house.

 

[TripTango]

Plenty of time.

 

[BBert]

Dame is good

 

[Natebishop3]

Just keep giving it to Dame.

 

[PDXFonz]

Omg it's called a slump, have some dignity yall!
