It's a dream come true! Our bracket is Phoenix, Dallas, and San Antonio! We are 8-2 agains them! The Western Conference Finals is very possible. GO BLAZERS!
We got our dream bracket. Now we have to kick some ass. I expect Camby to average 18-20 rebounds per game in this series.
While I'm glad we missed the Jazz and Nuggs in round 1, the Blazers absolutely stink against the fastbreak right now. I hope this team can find a way to slow down the Suns a bit.
Force them into the half court, get out on shooters, and let Dre go wild on Nashty. This is gonna be fun series.
We slowed down the Suns in our last meeting. We just didn't hit shots. We're actually very good at controlling tempo. Remember that game against the Warriors where they scored 41 in the first quarter but didn't even crack 90 by the end of the game? Tonight's game means nothing.
Not at the top of our game??? Forget tonight's game. We had won 14 of our last 18 before tonight. We're one of the best teams since the All Star break. And we just beat the Lakers and Thunder back to back and the Suns don't even have a winning record against playoff teams. Not even close, in fact. Phoenix is the team we want to play and we got em.
http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/boxscore?gameId=300210021 Look at the box score of this game. This makes me think we have a chance. Also, the ESPN announcers for the Phx Utah game said we are a "physical team" and that we are gonna play them tough and wouldn't be surprised if we won. They talked about how SA had knocked them out 4 times since '03 and it was because they defended the half court and defended the 3. Thats all we need to do. I think we have a chance with or without Roy.
No kidding. I didn't understand maxiep's post either. Before tonight's meaningless matchup, we were rolling.
Even though they beat us last time in phx, that game gave me a lot of confidence. We held them to 93 or so I think on their home floor. We controlled the game, just missed a ton of wide open shots in the 3rd when out defense was locking them down. I'm feelin pretty good about this!!!!!!
We are the only lower seed in the entire playoffs to have won the season series against the higher seed!
Nice! I don't want to get too far ahead of ourselves...but the bracket has worked out great. We can play with Phoenix, and if we get lucky & win, we have already shown we are capable of hanging with Dallas & S.A. (which we would have home court over).
I think this worked out as well as it could have. The Suns are probably the matchup for us, but I don't think we can beat them if we don't have Roy. And even if we have Roy, he won't be close to 100% so that may not be good enough to take down the Suns.
