    Regardless that was a nice run to end the half. We need to come out with that same energy and effort in the 3rd and hang around. I would hate to see us be in a siuation down by like 13 in the 4th and have to try and come back again.

    I would like to see it too, but I thought Dame was trying to snake around Asik and Asik moved forward to body him and stuffed Lillard's momentum. His arms were up, but that wasn't my problem with that play. I thought Dame took a substantial hit to the body. Par for the course though that half. We're still in this.

    For the record I never gave up on the team. I doubt anyone else did either because we know the team will not give up. Our despair is fueled by crooked officiating.

    I kinda feel bad for Rockets fans. Their team is being outclassed.

    All contact is not illegal. Again, I'd have to see it again but to me it looked like Dame created the contact on a defender who was jumping straight up in his vertical plane.

    Chuck has this right. They're not doing anything different than they have all season in this game. No way they can sustain leads.

    LA hasn't done shit and goes into to the third with still 2 fouls.
    Nic has to wake up.
    Wes won't miss layups.

    We got dis.

    That's a good point. As horrific as the first half of the second quarter was (the only thing worse than our play was the refereeing) it's impressive we are only down 8.

    I don't know why they hammer Lin so badly in Houston. He's not perfect, but he runs the offense much better than Beverley.

    .

    Damian Lillard is first player with 100+ points, 30+ rebounds and 30+ assists in first 5 career playoff games since Gilbert Arenas (2005).

    Not.

    Worried.

    We've been in this situation 3 out of 4 times. We're just fine.

    Is there a reason you're spamming with the huge font?

    Well, I didn't see any replay so it's hard to say for sure, but Dame was running away from the basket. He was coming across the key. How can Asik be jumping straight up when Dame isn't even going straight at the hoop?

    All of our players except Dame can play better. And they will this half.

    Book it!

    And the refs can't do worse, so there's that. ;)
