    How do you have a 23 rebound advantage and still lose?

    Simple. You have a PG that shoots a horrific 4-15.

    Miller had 15 dimes and was still a -14 for the game.

    Some ugly turnovers at a critical time didn't help the cause.

    It was simple--GS scored 100--game. As soon as GS passed 100 I turned the game off. Portland can't win when the opponent scores 100. Sad really.

    I guess that three previous wins against some pretty weak opponents was just fool's gold like I suspected. This team is still struggling to find an identity.

    That happens a lot at Oracle for this organization.

    Do you mean efficiency points? Miller had a good game, both per minute and in total. He was 32.5 (ESPN definition) and positive 18 (NBA.com definition).

    Rudy was very passive; I don't know if he put the ball on the floor the whole game. Miller and Aldridge looked a little tired; the team as constituted need to play more focused and intense to win games.

    Rudy did put the ball on the floor and score at the basket. We lost the game because we went cold at the end and while Aldridge is capable of putting up numbers, he's not a legit go to guy at the end of games yet. The old Roy would've won this game for us. The new Roy might've even too. Sucks that there was no game thread today.

    Sad game to watch. blazers lost to a 18-5 run by the Warriors by the anouncers. I turned it on with like 3 minutes left and it was just a disappointment to see it end the way it did.

    I know it's not the only reason we lost.. but Rudy, Batum and Matthews all missed wide open three's in crunch time.

    The Blazers are 5-12 on the road this season. Losing at Oracle isn't shocking but this team is terrible away from home, particularly on offense.

    Bring on the Andre Miller trade Cho.

    Miller played poorly
    Aldridge couldn't make anything
    Camby injured? He didn't play the second half

    I told my father in law that "I bet Nate now force feeds Aldridge like Roy and the offense stands around again" Hey, guess what????? That's exactly what happened
