First Round Game 4: Blazers @ Rockets Thread

Artest got punked!

 

Travis is playing some good defense on Artest and getting him to still take shots that are difficult. I'm proud.

 

close the gap!

 

Which makes it more difficult to understand why he doesn't do it all the time.

I like ya Travis, but be more consistent.

 

we need Travis to knock down his fucking shots

 

He did it to Durant, Melo, and Artest (in Game 2 and this game).

 

We need Travis to grow a pair and stop shooting the fades. Go up strong kid. You can dunk over anyone.

 

We are giving up way too many 2nd chance points.

 

But he doesn't do it to a lot of other players.

Inconsistent.

 

He just doesn't have the BBIQ to put it all together game from game. This is why on a contending team he needs to be a 10-15 minute player instead of a 30 minute player. KP needs to make moves this summer to address that.

 

It was a 1-point game then Aaron Brooks comes alive.

Do you guys still have the red jerseys this year?

 

BREAKING NEWS. YAO FIRST FOUL OF GAME.

 

We do. I am curious to as why we did not wear them during your red out like New Jersey did to Toronto's red out.

 

Yao called for his first foul of the game.

BREAKING NEWS!! Riots in Houston! Rockets fans in tears, threatening the lives of the officials!

 

I could live with Yao shooting 20 foot jump shots.

 

Yes, but I'm afraid we won't be able to show them off.

 

Whenever they call a foul when Greg is setting a screen I'm scared to death that it'll be on him because our guards always go so early.

 

As obvious by your avatar, everybody needs somebody to love them.

 

Yeah, that's what I was thinking.

C'mon though, guys. Yao was involved in some fouls in the first half but a teammate was there too to bail him out. This time there was no question he committed it himself.

 

Playing up hill is exhausting. We almost get to the summit and we get pushed back off. THIS is why you don't want to play from behind.
