Tonight Is A "Trap" Game

[ABM]

You do know that......right? Riiiiight?

 

[Nikolokolus]

Maybe from a fan's perspective, but I don't think the players take Steve Nash lightly. If this was a younger Blazers squad I might agree with you, but this is a pretty experienced team.

 

[magnifier661]

We should win this game. You can tell the Blazers are much different this season. I think they just "Get it!"

 

[Brock]

we should be 7-1 when weekend ends....

Their fitting Steve Nash for his Batum blanket right now.

Whoa, that was weird......I tried to 'reply with quote' to Nikolokolus's post but it came out in the same space.

Nate McMillian teams have not had letdown games. We've had trouble elevating play in postseason, but bringing effort night in and night out has never been an issue.

 

[ABM]

This is the Blazers, though. I get right there, then wham-o!.......sorry, as a parting gift, tell 'em what they've won, Johnny.

And I don't think Wallace ever has a letdown game and his energy seems to infect the other players on the floor with him. I've also been impressed with the overall high basketball IQ of the team. They generally make good decisions and don't look like the get nervous or desperate even if they're behind by double digits. They aren't "dominating" all the time but they do seem to be in control of the style of play most of the time.

Kinda reminds me of my dating days, Spud.

I have no doubt you were beastin' like Bynum with the ladies. There's no denying you're a complete stud muffin.

 

[TripTango]

I agree that this looks like an almost textbook definition of "trap game". Ironically, a win tonight will do more to impress me that the win last night did, as good as it always feels to stomp the L*kers.

Wow, I'm honored. You got all that simply from us chowing down bbq at the state fair? Hmmmm.....................

 

[Mediocre Man]

Total trap game

Well I've never seen anyone manhandle the meat and work the buns like you did.

You, m'am are irrepressible.

Boy it is nice to see you around a bit more again. You have a thing for zing.

Gramps...

Yeah, yeah....by two friggin' minutes. Pffft.

Thanks Gramps, it's good to see you too! You are a gentleman as always. I was just thinking about you and E and all the other posters who started back on the ESPN board after the last lock out. How we have stayed connected for 13 years! Can you believe that it's been that long?

Crandc made a brief appearance today (and I really hope she comes around more).

P.S. I wish PBF would resurface.

 

[Spud147]

Actually, I said it first.

Well it really doesn't matter because you're both wrong! My Blazers are GOOOOOOD!!!

 

[blazerboy30]

You, m'am are irrepressible.

You two wanna take your old-people sexting to the OT forum?

What is this "sexting"? Is that some new fangled type of flirting you young people enjoy? Does this have something to do with The Twitter?

 

[ABM]

Man, I have a real bad feeling about tonight's game. Can't place my finger on it, but I just can't shake it.

Hmmm.... I think I'll go get me a brewski to help settle down the system.

 

[KingSpeed]

A few years ago, we had the best record in the league in second nights of back to backs. Nate has the guys ready.

Thanks for the reassurance.

And I can't tell you why but I have a really good win vibe going. Maybe I'm trusting LMA and Wallace too much but I don't think they'll let the guys have a let down. Plus LaMarcus got a lot of rest last night so fatigue shouldn't be a factor for him tonight.

So, uh...what was that again?
