Missed the game thread, but not the game. Just wanted to drop a huge "FUCK YEAH!" in here. Awesome win. I thought the game was lost a few times but this team is full of pleasant surprises this year. On to game 2. Do not let up!

 

[magnifier661]

Sweep these flopping fucks. Lets get greedy and take game 2

That would be soooo epic

Houston gets the Nice Boat ending.

LMA hasn't said "you know" that much in the post game conference. Is this the same guy???!

 

[magnifier661]

Lmao on the podium

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

The refs screwed the Blazers all game long.

Freeland got away with an obvious foul?

 

[Strenuus]

Anyone know where I can hear those pressers? I missed them live.

Stotts had a GREAT gameplan. We attacked the heart of their defense with our backcourt. Let's see if it works throughout the series.

LaMarcus Aldridge, Damian Lillard are first teammates to score 45 and 30 in a playoff game since Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen in 1992

Awesome win! But it's just one. The pressure's on Houston now.

LA said to Glide before the game, "I'm coming for you."

Oh wow. I could have sworn that James and Wade had done it at least once. That's impressive.

Fuck 1992. That sucked balls.

This is the kind of shit I like to hear. Also heard Lillard had the best playoff premier since LeBron?

It should. Houston's guards can't stay in front of our guards (Beverly isn't even that good of a defender he just gets away with shit). If our bench can contribute we will be hard as hell to beat.

I think we'll have to win two in Houston.

Hahahahaha

 

[RipCity71252]

It's funny coming here and seeing us say the refs were screwing us, then go over to a rockets forum and and see them blaming the refs for the loss. Love is Blind.

The refs made bad calls on both ends, but Portland was the agressor tonight.

I think mchale's plan is to get called for deer fouls.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

The trick is, can Houston beat Damian Lillard four times?

 

[illmatic99]

Get greedy

It is a good strategy. I also love him going into Nate mode and sending their best player into ISO after ISO.

Exactly!!!! Dame is a killer. He has mj swag

 

[Further]

Oh me oh my, that was one of the best, most entertaining, kick ass, important games I've seen in years! I am in awe and nearly wetting myself with glee! Can't wait for game 2.
