Actually, your record is what determines if you go to the playoffs or not.

You think this is a team headed to the playoffs?

This is a team that's shooting too many 3-pointers and now is coming back to earth after playing above their heads for the first month. Not a good sign of things to come.

13 assists and 6-27 from the 3pt line.

Lazy offense.

We're such a great three point shooting team though. Just had a bad night. We shot 14 of 26 at Sacramento and no one complained then.
 
Nice to hear Charles saying Greg needs to show some patience. It's true.
 
Barkley actually making some sense.

Considering they play 16 out of 24 games on the road, I think it is a good sign of things to come. They won't (probably) finish 7-1 over their next 8 home games, but they should win 6 out of their next 9 (or, conversely, they could lose 6 out of their next 9).
 
Barkley is actually a pretty smart analyst. I actually listen to what he has to say.
 
Fez- we beat the San Antonio Spurs on national TV as well

That's TWO games. You fail.
 
I think Charles was referring the jackass or asshole comment to Quick.
 
The other guy is a idiot, sure you try to improve your game during the off season, but Oden was rehabbing and this is the first time he's played in the NBA so it's a learning experience.

Charles Barkley just called you all "internet idiots"!!!

What was the context of it (and truth be told, we are internet idiots)?

Our inability to get Oden the ball when he's inside the charging circle is pathetic. I don't care if he's not an offensive threat... he's 6" bigger than anyone else on this court and has gotten great position all game. I'd look disinterested in the game if no one ever threw me the ball and instead settled for shitty jumpers, too.

Thank fucking hell that someone sees what is happening. It makes me sick.
 
Deron Williams is a stud. His defense, his offense, his decision making . . . he would make a lot of medicore teams very good.

Tough loss . . . two in a row . . . Roy and Aldridge are good for 35+ mins a game every night, they are consitent and needed on the court . . . Blazers need one more big time player that delivers every night, then all the role payers can do their thing on any given night.

I thought the big guy was OK tonight . . . he is still just a role player learning the ropes on this team . . . not as much as a sure thing in my mind, but I think he probably turns into the last of the big three . . . maybe Rudy, but I don't know how that would work.

Got to win this next game . . . where would the Blazers be without Roy?
 
For those who say we can't excute, man, have you been watching this season? Hey we are 8-8 on the road! Whenever you play .500 on the road I consider you a good team. That's where I thought we'd have to really work on this season and we are already doing well on the road.

Now for some home cooking!!

GO BLAZERS!!
 
I agree with It's GO Time. The team needs a solid 3rd threat (preferably as the SF).

Rudy is a year away, imho, from being one.
