    Chuck would love the Blazers if someone would just send him some Voodoo Donuts.

    Hmmmm


    Portland finished higher in the standings last year, right?

    Portland has a better record this year, right?

    Portland is actually ahead at half time, right?

    Why isn't Barkley mentioning we got a TON of easy baskets, the kind he says we don't get?

    Yeah, they'd just cut to the Kemper Open at halftime of game 7.

    I guess what we're doing isn't that impressive. The Clippers did it.

    This is just a better, smarter team IMO. Matthews is a much better bench scorer than either Webster or Bayless, Armon runs the offense and puts actual pressure on the ball without fouling, and they just feel like they've got some nice balance going on.

    EDIT:
    I'll freely admit I thought this team was going to really struggle with chemistry and they seem to have put that to rest, they've been playing really unselfishly.

    Definitely. I'm most impressed with Johnson's defense. Bayless was always just really aggressive, but not smart about how he defended. Johnson has the aggression, but he's smart about it.

    I'm not 100% sure, but I think Harden might be a bust

    I'm glad they took him. OKC with Evans or Curry would SUCK.

    What reason does the Blazers have for lying about this?

    Because it's not about the Blazers getting easy baskets it is about the Thunder defense and the how they need big men.

    I can't believe the whole halftime and no talk about the Blazer team . . . wow.
