    Still think we can win Game 2. Horrible first quarter, partly due to having 36 hours to prepare versus their 4 days. Have to imagine we won't have another first half where our backcourt shoots so poorly.

    Great game by the Blazers - they can build on this.

    No, I'm not being facetious. After being outscored 22-7 to start the game, we outscored the Champs the rest of the way - on their court.

    I'm sick of Portland not getting any credit for this season. Nothing about Ilshey, nothing about Stotts. How many teams lose four of five starters and make the second round of the playoffs. The commentary is literally:

    "The Blazers were supposed to win around 29 ganes at the most."

    "Yeah Bob. They have really achieved when everybody expected them to lose."

    "Anyway. Let's get back to talking about that team that is so far ahead of the rest of the league, the Golden State Warriors."

    You do know that's a Monkees song, right?

    Appropriate Beatles songs for game 1:
    I'm only sleeping (first quarter)
    Don't bring me down (sung by me, at the screen)
    Everybody's got something to hide except for me and my monkey (sung by me after I turned off the game and smoked a doobey)

    I like all the songs Pete Best did for the Beatles.

    Okay so we get there and lay an egg. I watched shot after shot bounce off the front of the rim. Obvious sign that they were tired or maybe the Warriors made the ball heavier when they were shooting? I'm gonna go with tired legs.
    Bad shooting game was pretty much to be expected.

    The Blazers aren't going to get a lot of credit from the national press OR the officials until... well, probably never, but not at the very least until we're favored to win.

    Not really, but there are some that would happily murder you for asking that.

    Don't you mean "Don't LET me down"

    "Don't bring me down" is an ELO song, and while Jeff Lynne basically wants to call himself a Beatle, he wasn't a Beatle.

    Monkeys were much more talented than people have them credit for. They could actually play their instruments. Michael Nesmith wrote "Different Drum" one of the best songs of the 60's. They championed Harry Nilsson, one of America's greatest ever singer/songwriters and discovered Tim Buckley. For a "manufacturered band" that's pretty damn good!

    Shot by my own gun. But then, Happiness is a warm gun.

    (And Jeff Lynne at least got to be in a band WITH a Beatle.)
