[Natebishop3]

We have scored 2 points in 3.5 minutes.

 

[DamianLillard#0]

cool down blazers cool down.. this is tactic from the rockets.. they yealing every fuckn game.. this is not new.. play our game..

 

[B-Roy]

Damian is not boxing out Beverly. This is like the 3rd time this game Beverly got the offensive rebound.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Refs in half #2: #wideopenmouths

 

[Natebishop3]

C'mon man. This is just sad.

I call it like I see it. One team out there is fired up, the other team is not.

 

[illmatic99]

the Blazers are playing...safe? tentative? soft? Not sure what to call it, but whatever it is, they're playing it.

No sense of urgency

 

[jlprk]

We never address our weaknesses, year after year. For starters, anyone, including Wright, could easily replace Batum.

 

[julius]

The really frustrating thing is, you KNOW that Howard and Harden aren't going to have games like this again (at least, in Houston). This is the game to steal.

The good thing is, Houston won't make it past the 2nd round. The bad thing is, Portland won't make it past the 1st.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

I hope everytime Harden flops at the Moda Center the PA plays "Who shot ya" by Biggie.

 

[riverman]

Lotta game left! This was a good timeout

 

[TripTango]

I call it like I see it. One team out there is fired up, the other team is not.

Right now.

And that "steam" has gone back and forth several times now. Basketball is a game of runs.

 

[Rhal]

We are missing a LOT of easy shots so far. This isn't looking that good.

 

[Natebishop3]

Rolo is fucking 1-6..... stop going to him.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Harden with another gift

 

[Natebishop3]

It's slipping away.

 

[MickZagger]

They waited until Harden missed it to blow the whistle.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Okay Dame needs the ball. He is getting penetration.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

They waited until Harden missed it to blow the whistle.

Surprised? NBA refs are notorious for it.

 

[Rhal]

Holycrap does Beverly get away with fucken murder

 

[riverman]

There we go Wes!

 

[Natebishop3]

Dame has done nothing to the Rockets, but Beverley is a tool and now Rocket fans talk tons of shit about Dame.

 

[riverman]

Ball don't lie..clunk

 

[Rhal]

We really need to just DROP Beverly on his ass next time he goes to the rim. LAY HIM OUT and let him shoot the FT's not that weak foul that Robinson gave him.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

The offense is standing around WAY too much. No movement.

 

[Natebishop3]

I was JUST thinking I wish we'd hit a three.

 

[riverman]

Need a big run here

 

[Natebishop3]

The refs definitely aren't letting Beverley pull his bullshit on Dame.

 

[EGame]

Great shot selection Batum. High IQ.

 

[Natebishop3]

WTF Nic....

 

[BBert]

You have to be fucking kidding me with this flopping fucking bullshit.

Rockettes come out fouling and bitching on every possession, until the refs start licking their nuts.
