It must have happen. I walked outside my door and my Skinhead Punk-next door neighbor, who's idea of sports is "skanking" at a Specials concert said, "So Dame dropped 51 on the Warriors. We in the play offs?" The world is talking about last night.

I was watching the the end of Boston/Utah on ESPN and the announcers were talking about the Blazers/GSW game and completely downplaying the Blazers doing anything. "Seems like GS just had a bad night" "it happens doesn't mean anything" and I can't remember what else was said.

Just finished watching replay on NBA TV, now it's being replayed on CSN and I'm watching again lol. Yeah, it happened. What is this teams ceiling this year? If our defense stays at this level I honestly do not know if I can determine a ceiling.

I really enjoyed the game, but the Warriors weren't themselves yesterday, they made too many dumb mistakes.

I'm honestly thinking their might be an Anti-PDX league bias. And I'm just paranoid enough to back up my claims with JFK-assassination type data!

We forced them into it though. We frustrated them, they aren't used to a team not backing down with fear in the third and fourth quarters.

20% of the warriors losses this season have come at the hands of the blazers. Lillards fuck you tour just hit another gear.

For the first time in a long time the blazers are hitting stride when a team needs to while warriors peaked too early. Championship 20mil under cap and no all stars. Fuck you nba blazers are coming.

Lillard was on front page of ESPN.com last night.
Because we played elite defense.

Maybe, to me they just looked smug and on automatic mode.
Not trying to take away from the win, i think we have a great group of guys.

There it is...it began when Paul Allen told commissioner Stern he would not move the Blazers from Portland to a larger market city and has shitballed since then

I still believe the NBA and its stars are all apart of something very on the lines of eyes wide shut.. Except for Paul Allen and Damian Lillard.

Shit man.... Stern was a colossal prick but the league would have been stupid to have done that. PDX basically is their only foothold in the entire NW much the same way Vancouver is for the NHL. But after seeing what happened in LA with pro football nothing would surprise me.

All I've heard is how GS lost the game, not how Portland won. Sorry, a 32 point beat down, and a player going for 51/7/6 is more than just playing bad. Especially when that team is known to consistently win by 20 points and has a +11 differential.
Portlands defense was something to appreciate last night, quick on rotating, attacking the passing lanes. IF Portland continues this kind of defensive effort and intensity, playoff time will be very interesting. IF....BIG-GIGANTIC-IF Portland continues this level of play, I could see them as a dark horse for the WCF. Yeah, I know, a little homerish and overly optimistic, but it's what I believe.

What are you guys talking about? SportCenter last night was all over Dame's nuts for 10 minutes about the game. NBATV was talking about how Dame is taking it out on the rest of the NBA because of his All Star snub and I've read countless national pieces on how much of a great win that was last night.

Sports announcers and fans of other teams are having a hard time believing our roster is rapidly developing chemistry and a winning culture. But when did they ever get anything right?
I would bet the players and coaches on the other teams have noticed.

Stern dispised the Northwest...the sonics and Blazers didn't fit into his marquee teams scheme...he wanted only top market teams that could draw stars...because stars are what bring the money apparently...he saw the Northwest as fools gold...not enough could be made here and he wanted the NBA out of here...the sonics said yes, Paul Allen said NO...and that was that...Stern hated the Blazers, he called the Rose Garden "inadequate"

It's crazy to think we are the only PNW team sometimes... RIP Sonics and Real Grizzlies.

If Dame had only made half of what he did (25.5)... 51-25.5, we'd of still won by 7.... and thats not counting that other people would have gotten some of those points.
We fucking destroyed them. National media will play the narrative of "one night, off night, on the road, week off, we ran up the score" bullshit. But we got a W, which stands for Whooped your ass in this game.
