the team look like great in the first minutes.. harder defense on Lee will be give us good chances to win this game..

 

[BBert]

Batum was fouled on a three earlier. No call. And so it begins.

 

[Strenuus]

Heh... I can't carry this game thread... gonna be doing a live draft for Baseball in 8 minutes with some of the 1080 guys.

 

[blue9]

First play of the game - nice quick pass by Wes to Lopez. Need more quick passes!
Wright should NEVER shoot a fast-break 3. Wright should NEVER shoot a "Lillard" 3 (one that is significantly behind the line).

 

[BBert]

Second block for Lopez. Stupid long three miss by wright.

Batum was fouled on a three earlier. No call. And so it begins.

Klay got called on two suspect fouls, both drawn by Matthews. First one was 50/50 push-off/block foul, they called block on Klay, I can live with it even though Wes clearly had the elbow extended and they call that a lot. The next one was pretty wack where Wes drops a clear hook on Klay and then they DO call Klay for a foul on the recover.

 

[maxiep]

Ric Bucher is the sideline reporter for GS?

 

[blue9]

Oh no - that looked like Bad Mo.

 

[BBert]

This is a fast game. I hope we can keep up.

 

[maxiep]

We're playing good, active ball tonight.

 

[Run BJM]

Rick Bucher is the sideline reporter for GS?

Yep, after he left ESPN he came back to the Bay Area (where he was before ESPN) and has been doing sideline reporting for GS and has a daily radio show.

 

[blue9]

Followed by Good Mo!

 

[KingSpeed]

Looking good so far

 

[BBert]

Klay got called on two suspect fouls, both drawn by Matthews. First one was 50/50 push-off/block foul, they called block on Klay, I can live with it even though Wes clearly had the elbow extended and they call that a lot. The next one was pretty wack where Wes drops a clear hook on Klay and then they DO call Klay for a foul on the recover.

there is no hope for these refs.

 

[TBpup]

Barton playing PF? I guess Nic is.

 

[blue9]

WILL!

 

[TBpup]

Barton with the monster jam!!!

 

[TBpup]

Barton with the rebound, the push and nice feed to Lillard leading to FTs.

 

[BUNTA]

The People's Champ!!!!!

 

[DamianLillard#0]

will barton is a great bench player in most of the games he gets minutes i see him as a solid player ? what are you thinking about that im wrong with this ?

 

[BBert]

Mo does the nba "run into the defender and snap your head back" to draw the foul. LOL

 

[TBpup]

Barton with the nice dish to T-Rob for 2.

 

[TBpup]

Barton with the steal.

 

[DamianLillard#0]

yeah lillard clutch goes early

 

[KingSpeed]

Another great first quarter defensively

 

[blue9]

Little worrisome that we played with unusually high energy, essentially outplaying GSW, and only lead by 1.

 

[TBpup]

NBA.com didn't give Barton his steal...weird.

 

[DamianLillard#0]

hell yeah my man Claver is back..

 

[TBpup]

Barton with the drive, shot, rebound and put back.

 

[blue9]

Robinson played terrific D on O'Neal there. Denied the post entirely.
