The ONLY Way We Lose Tonight...

Welcome to our community

Be a part of something great, join today!

You're the one trying to bring down other posters and calling them trolls

Seems like you whine when you don't like what you hear

What a lifestyle!

Lmao like I said, you would be saying "Houston is the better team", if we were down 2-3 and played like they did. Saying shit like "we can't hold leads". "Batum just doesn't have that killer instinct".

The Houston forum would love you to join. They would really dig on your "realistic views". You know, the trolling ones?
 
i dont know guys, the blazers are playing .500 ball the last two games, seems kinda average to me

So now you have to make up a whole story just so you can try and paint me as a troll

You obviously had to make a story up because you have nothing on what I've said about the series that has actually taken place. I noticed you totally avoided my post about game 3 and the Rockets getting 22 offensive rebounds. Keep running from the truth.

The refs already screwed Houston in game 1 at the end of OT

It could be Portland's turn now
The refs already screwed Portland all through the second half of game 1, and at various other points in the series. It could be Houston's turn now. ;)

But it wouldn't matter. We don't need the refs help.

What are you talking about. The Blazers have dropped 2 of 3. They are in a major slump.

Another hour and a half to go.

The tension is thick.

Who gets banned before the game even starts? LOL

And keep the crying coming. You're like a 10-year-old that cries when she doesn't hear what she wants to.

Crying? I have no tears... I just think SlyPokerDog is the poster child Eeyore... Nothing wrong with that. Every ying needs a yang. The pessimism is strong with you. I am your father!

Attention some of you:

Tonight should be the busiest night of posting in the forum. There will be no way I can keep up with reading all of your wonderful posts and watching the game. The personal insults MUST STOP! Final warning. If not I will suspend you for the duration of the game. If it even looks like an insult you will be suspended.

We all want the Blazers to win. What some of you are arguing about is kinda goofy. I'm asking you to please stop.

Thanks
 
This is fun!

In an ulcer-inducing kind of way.
 
The reffing has favored the Rockets in every game so far....if Portland wants to win, they'll have to over come it. I wish we had a fair competition, but I'm getting tired of watching these bouts where one team is handicapped by refs.
 
fuck the refs, gotta rise above that shit, no excuses, go out there and WIN

The Rockets have shot more FT's than us in 3 games

Game 1
FTA 40-39
PF 33-32

Game 2
FTA 30-27
PF 27-28

Game 3
FTA 22-28
PF 28-24

Game 4
FTA 38-30
PF 27-24

Game 5
FTA 18-23
PF 21-21

BLAZERS CALLED FOR 7 FEWER FOULS IN SERIES AND FTA ARE COMPLETELY EVEN FOR THE SERIES

It's like some of you just like to make shit up.
 
Earth to MM. It's not about FTA's. It's about altering the momentum of the game with untimely bad calls, quality not quantity.
 
I've seen this argument that seems to say that games are only officiated equally if both teams have the same number of fouls called and shoot the same number of free throws. That presumes, erroneously IMO, that all teams do everything at the same rate. If teams performed perfectly equally, there would be no sense in playing the games. They don't. Some teams foul more, turnover the ball less, shoot a better percentage, play worse defense, box out and rebound better.... All things are not equal, so why should foul calls be equal? I have never understood the argument.

Aw, go *unbelievably gross expletive deleted* yourself.

So what has been the points in the paint so far this series? I am about to go night night from some awesome drugs that would make Mags jealous. Has either team shot more in the paint?
 
Whatever. It hasn't been the refs. Play better and win, period.
I'll jump on that bandwagon.

Blazers are lousy at working the refs. It works for some teams who work the refs proactively. They razz the refs even when they know they are wrong, because they know they'll get a freebee sooner or later.

The Blazers have historically done it reactively, which is seen as whining, does not work, and takes you out of the game.

Blazers have to ignore the calls, ignore the refs, and focus on the job at hand.

Us fans on the other hand, are free to be drunk and obnoxious about it. ;)
