    Yeah, and now you spend your Friday nights online posting on a basketball board random shit with a bunch of random dudes. Maybe he wants more for his daughters.

    I knew LaMarcus was going to miss at least one of those free throws. He is a good free throw shooter -- until the last two minutes of the game.

    OTOH: I had confidence when Nico was on the line. He is so cool and smooth: like Silk.

    Great game and great finish by Andre. His steal at the end was epic. His lob to Batum for the win was epic. Nate's less-than-last-second play call was epic. Decoys all over the floor and Nico rolls in for the lob.

    Awesome Finish!

    That was an amazing game that I totally thought would go the other way. However, this team has shown a lot of grit the last few years and can't be taken for granted. Wow...

    I don't agree. Ginobli was nails, but the Spurs basically played two man or iso with Ginobli for most the 4th. It cost them in the end. I'm not sure what they should have done differently tho being so small.

    Portland manned up in the closing minutes scoring all their points in the paint, getting key rebounds, crucial steals, pressure free throws. Portland earned it.

    “It was ridiculous,” a subdued Manu Ginobili said. “One of the craziest games I’ve lost in the NBA.”

    That's what I said.

    Also the play is the lead in at the beginning credits of SportsCenter.

    Miller, third among the NBA’s active leaders in assists, had no trouble ranking that one.

    “That was No. 1,” said Miller, who matched Batum with 21 points.

    I don't know if you've all heard yet, but it's #1 on Sportscenter.

    Seriously though, there wasn't much hating for a Blazer game thread, surprisingly enough. Good job folks :clap:

    I didn't yell, I just said "Mom, that's gonna be on sports center".

    It was (but you knew that already).

    Jeez, we hoisted up 26 3-pointers, made only 26.9%, and still somehow won this game. We should stop settling for 3s the rest of the season; the 3-ball should be a last resort because obviously it's not a weapon for us.
