After watching the Blazers embarrass themselves on national television, on their own homecourt, I'm wondering, what do you guys expect out of Drew in his first playoff game? The postseason is a different atmosphere than the regular season. If you don't believe me, just ask the Blazers. You play with the big boys now. Blazers are obviously young and inexperienced. Same can be said of Andrew Bynum. The positive is that he will be playing alongside vets who have gone far in the postseason, and who do know how to play in this type of atmosphere. Maybe that will calm his nerves a bit. With that being said, do you guys expect him to struggle tomorrow? Get into foul trouble? Or do you expect him to continue right where he left off?
Lost One, different case man. He's surrounded by vets and he takes Josh Powell's and Mbenga's minutes (who do you think would get rattled more?). Lamar comes in whenever he needs a breather as well, he's ultimate depth for us at worst.
Yeah I know, but I'm talking about his individual production. Do you guys think he will have butterflies, and will that end up effecting his game? Also, does anyone have the stats of Kobe's first playoff game? I'm wondering how well he played.
Depends on the team, as a third option he looks very comfortable to me normally, especially with Drew taking even more pressure off.
Not too worried about that, his role is different this year. He did match up well against the Cavs though; it really depends on the team.
