    SA is a must win if we want a chance at HCA.

    Fact of life. We can complain about the refs all we want, but if we can't contest jump shots, we will not win on the road against good teams. At least we started attacking the rim in the second half. I'm not convinced that the refs are going to be any different in the playoffs though. I think people have forgotten what it was like to play the Lakers or Jazz in the playoffs years ago.

    Good, solid ass-kicking. But we played it tough. I wouldn't mind playing them in the playoffs because it would be a BATTLE. Scola is such a great player.

    No way they get the calls in Portland. There are too many slaps (Scola) that the Portland fans would influence the refs with. Officiating is hard. No doubt. So many calls that they miss, that the home town fans don't.

    We only need 1 win out of 4 road games, and we're next to unbeatable at home, so I expect we'll do just fine.

    I don't agree that this game shows we can't win against a good team on the road in the playoffs. We stuck with them and I believe showed we are could beat them at home if we meet them in the playoffs. Of course we might lose one at home as well so HCA would help us a lot.

    FT shooting.

    Would have been interesting if Przy never got in foul trouble in the 1st half. Przy was acrually +1 tonight, Batum -3. The best on the team.
