Toronto Raptors at Portland Trail Blazers 12/27/2008 Game thread

[PapaG]

We need to keep going to Oden.

Yes. Stop the offensive flow even more than it is already!

Oden is lost at this point. He is GARBAGE on defense.

 

[Darkwebs]

Nice hustle right there by all our guys.

 

[Darkwebs]

Again, Raptors get a wide open 3

 

[Natebishop3]

Our terrible defense.... can this be fixed by coaching or are our players just dumb?

 

[Natebishop3]

Yes. Stop the offensive flow even more than it is already!

Oden is lost at this point. He is GARBAGE on defense.

Because all our jump shooting has done so well lately...

 

[illmatic99]

Our terrible defense.... can this be fixed by coaching or are our players just dumb?

Can't you see? It's obviously Sergio's fault.

 

[Rodolfo]

I guess we have to hope the Raptors go really cold because our defense sure isn't going to stop them!

 

[Natebishop3]

Finally... the Oden we saw at the beginning of the season.

 

[Darkwebs]

Outlaw is shooting like crap! Jeez, get to the rim if your jumpshot is off. And it IS off.

 

[Darkwebs]

Holy Outlaw! Half court 3! A prayer was answered there.

 

[DUB]

Outlaw is shooting like crap! Jeez, get to the rim if your jumpshot is off. And it IS off.

Then he hits a half court shot.

 

[mrkorb]

Outlaw is shooting like crap! Jeez, get to the rim if your jumpshot is off. And it IS off.

Yeah, he should shoot from halfcourt more often.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Oden is looking like a new man tonight. I credit Nate and Lucas

 

[julius]

Can we please sweep a season series from an eastern conference team? Please?

 

[Rodolfo]

Luftman has some little girl hands there doesn't he?

 

[J~Rush]

Oden keeping us in this one.

 

[Darkwebs]

Terrible turnover by the Blazers. Boneheaded!

 

[PapaG]

Finally... the Oden we saw at the beginning of the season.

On defense, not so much.

Offensively, I am happy!

 

[Darkwebs]

Stop freaking turning it over. WTF?!?

 

[PapaG]

Rudy, Outlaw, and Sergio all struggling tonight. Hope that turns around quick.

 

[Darkwebs]

Why can't we get a defensive rebound? This is shit!!

 

[santeesioux]

Get some damn rebounds!

 

[Nikolokolus]

What the fuck happened to our rebounding?

 

[Darkwebs]

Woo hoo! Finally, we tied the game at 65. Take this victory, Blazers!

 

[PapaG]

What the fuck happened to our rebounding?

The immoblie one is playing.

Luckily Outlaw is finally making a few shots.

 

[bobf]

Why the hell does Outlaw keep passing up wide open 3-pointers in order to take contested 2-pointers. He was just taking and making those shots earlier in the season.

 

[Darkwebs]

Sergio steals and then scores on the other end. Wonders never cease.

 

[santeesioux]

nba refs suck

 

[Darkwebs]

Yeah, Joel. Great job on the boards.

 

[Darkwebs]

Can we heave up another miracle at the buzzer?
