    I believe we are. We need to change the flow, but we can still win this game.

    Flip-flopping? When did I ever say Oden was better than Noah?

    In all honestly the Blazers came out and looked more poised then the Rockets for a good portion of the 1st quarter. A couple things went wrong and it all went to shit. Plus the bench sucks(Outlaw).

    You've said before that Oden is the next Russell, so that makes Noah the next Wilt?

    Flip-flopping on the general issue of Oden's value.

    Great energy to start the game. Aldridge had 10 points in the first 8 minutes. Houston clearly wanted to take advantage of our tiny lineup, so Artest is totally abusing us. 2nd quarter started, Houston took the ball to the hoop, and we got ice cold from outside. Roy hit some big shots or else we'd be down by 25. Outlaw looks scared, Rudy is getting beat on defense and not scoring on the other end, Blake has mad a couple bad turnovers, Oden got 2 quick fouls, and Aldridge barely played due to foul trouble. Joel has been fantastic.

    There's nothing more you need to know. That really explains it perfectly.

    Eric, I mean this as nicely as possible. If you can't control your bi-polar disorder on this board, you shouldn't post here when emotions are this high.

    I wish Jordan was playing for us instead of Roy. What the fuck is your point?

    EDIT: Sorry

    Hell no because that would mean we would have him and not Oden in the future. I'm not going to freak out because Oden got called for a close block/charge, and a 2nd foul because Yao stepped on his foot. The Bulls would trade Noah for Oden in a split second.

    Noah is playing GREAT. It's not like I'm saying Kwame Brown is better than Oden. Not true.

    never. have you watched the boston/chicago series? Noah is playing like a man. Why trade that for 5 pts, 4 rebs, & 5 fls?

    here's the question:

    both Noah and Oden are playing do or die Game 6s right now. Who is playing better? ANyone? And is it close?

    I would laugh my ass off if this BOS/CHI game went into quadruple OT.
