First Round Game 4: Blazers @ Rockets Thread

Hey, while we're throwing Outlaw under the bus, should we not discuss Brandon's 4 turnovers in the FOURTH QUARTER?!

 

Man up and give us more than 0 points and 3 rebs. The guy was the #1 pick! How is this year's #1 pick doing in the playoffs?

 

Would you shut up and look at the player instead of the fucking numbers?

 

he needs to learn how to adjust. It was obvious the refs were calling those tick tack fouls. stop doing it!

 

No. Roy was the man in this game.

The turnovers, at least one, were suspect at best. I thought Artest reached in on the out of bounds.

 

Now you're just baiting people, which really brings you down as a poster.

 

You constantly gripe about Oden, yet start oden fan club threads and have him as your avartar. What gives?

 

And he had at least two fouls that were complete bullshit. If Oden gets in foul trouble, he becomes passive. It's no surprise why he played like that. The refs took the agressiveness of our bigs out of the game plan. That's why we had to beat them with our backcourt.

 

It's called bi-polar disorder.

 

The refs completely changed how Greg was allowed to play from games two and three. As a rookie trying to contend with such drastic change from the refs against Yao I thought he did okay considering.

It's okay though some people can continue to ignore Travis just kinda standing around as LaMarcus and Joel were battling inside against three Rockets big men for rebounds in the fourth.

 

Stop doing what? He wrestled Yao just as hard as Yao wrestled him, and he got the shaft every single time. They were both playing rough for position, so just let them play. Oden literally got called for dancing, I swear.

 

some of you guys are fucking morons..greg couldn't breathe on yao without getting called for a foul, seriously did you watch the game sober? We lsot by 1, this one is on the refs dicking us over in the 1st half. Also, where are the fouls on artest grabbing roy's jersey?

 

At least Rudy hustled for the ball. Can the game plan be any simpler? When we out-rebound them we win.

So? Crash the boards!

 

He needed to stop his tick-tack fouls. When he went up honest on him, he was ok. The blazers played nice D on Yao actually. They just could not board.

 

Travis was terrific tonight. That last shot was ill-advised; it should have gone to someone else. That being said, without TO keeping us in the game, we aren't close at the end.

 

I wanted to see more of the Roy-Rudy-Travis-LMA-Joel lineup in the fourth.

 

Ron Artest only committing two fouls is a joke.

 

Travis was terrific in the first half. He completely disappeared in the fourth when our two big guys needed help on the boards and then there was that terrible three.

 

Then what is Yao Ming committing 1?

 

I'm disgusted. That game was ours and we gave it right back. Houston is a team of chokers and we make them look like Champions.

I don't care what the numbers say--we're the superior team. But because Nate won't stick up for our players, Houston is allowed to get away with murder and because we let them outwork us, we're likely going to lose this series.
