I am just sitting here a little bit in shock. I keep remembering Steve Kerr on the radio talking about how he thought LMA was the best PF and a top 5 player and the big difference between him and love/griffin was his game was tailor made for the playoffs.
Holy shit has LMA shown just how amazing he is.

I love that we have proven to be road warriors. The years we had Roy we couldnt win for shit on the road and now we are a good to great road team. Even better home team. These 2 just only alllow us a little room for error so if we were to drop one at home we still hold home court. Nice feeling.

HUGE props to Dorell Wright. I don't know if we win without him.

Hilarious that it was so easy to see that Houston was focused on the Game One "bad reffing," while LMA and Lillard were looking forward to Game 2.

If Beverley is allowed to get away with mugging Dame in Portland, I'll be shocked. Houston is mentally weak, as I said repeatedly, and it's time to crush them, Dame.

I expect Lillard to have a huge Game 3, along with Wes.

Forcing Harden to play defense has made a huge impact.
 
Re: ROUND 1, GAME 2: BLAZERS @ ROCKETS - 4/23/14, WEDNESDAY, 6:30 PM (PST), TNT & KG

.

The Trail Blazers have won two road games to begin a playoff series for second time in team history (1977 Conference Finals at LA Lakers).

.

LaMarcus Aldridge has recorded 2 of the franchise's 3 highest scoring playoff games in the last four days (45, Bonzi Wells, 4/23/03 at DAL).

Definitely. He was the difference. So glad he came through, so happy to eat my words (for a night).

I've been fighting that battle for year. I did notice that the biggest LMA critics are nowhere to be found. LMA scored a ton on mid-range open shots tonight, and Houston can't defend it. If LMA hits them, he's Dirk Nowitzki, but better on defense.

I can't emphasize how big Dorell Wright and Mo Williams were for us. Obviously LaMarcus was great, but without those two off the bench, his effort goes down the drain. Dame, Wes, and Nic all had off nights, and we won. That never happens. We usually need good nights from at least 3 of our starters.

TNT still showing all Houston highlights, and acting like it's an upset that Portland won.
 
Re: ROUND 1, GAME 2: BLAZERS @ ROCKETS - 4/23/14, WEDNESDAY, 6:30 PM (PST), TNT & KG

LaMarcus Aldridge's 89 points in 1st 2 playoff games are fewer than only Michael Jordan (1986, 1988) and Jerry West (1965) in last 50 years.

Dorrell was money tonight. Very happy for him.

You're discredited, IMO. A long road back from it.

Maybe this has been mentioned somewhere on these 57 pages (!!) of comments, but I think a big factor here is that Terry Stotts has been coaching in the NBA - and in the NBA playoffs - for years. Kevin McHale has been there as a player (though really, in a different era), and as a GM, but he's not a Popovich, or even Rick Adelman, kind of opposing coach. I'm not sure the Rockets have the coaching ability to get back in this series (though I think they might have the talent...).
 
Re: ROUND 1, GAME 2: BLAZERS @ ROCKETS - 4/23/14, WEDNESDAY, 6:30 PM (PST), TNT & KG

.

LaMarcus Aldridge is the first NBA player with consecutive playoff games of 43 points or more since Tracy McGrady (April 20-23, 2003).

YEAH BITCHES! I KNEW IT!

Just got out of work and had to drive home in the rain listening to the last 5 minutes. Almost drove off the road!

TNT guys barely acknowledge Portland's win. Fuck you, TNT.
