    Get Blake out of there. Nate takes Oden out the only one playing tonight. I guess Oden was tired.

    Eh, no penetration from Blake. My only problem.

    Might as well try Bayless today if we keep playing like this the rest of the first half.

    The way Blake and Sergio are turning it over, we might as well try Bayless at the beginning of the 2nd.

    Woohoo Sergio. 3 minutes, 2 turn-overs.

    Release Bayless!

    Sergio isn't any better the Blake today. I don't know but I think they should put Bayless in once Roy comes back but I doubt Nate will put him in until we are 20 points down lol.

    After one:

    -- The Blazers can't hit the broad side of a barn.
    -- Oden is becoming a force on defense. Love it.
    -- Nice to see Webster out there.
    -- Graham is killing us.

    We're lucky to be as close as we are. Fighting fatigue at the end of this kind of trip is rough, and the early start makes it a weird game.

    Sergio is definitely far more efficient at turning it over than Blake. Plus he doesn't have the two pesky "3s" that Blake managed to get.

    Blake's numbers look good but he played terrible IMO. Sergio isn't player any better either.

    Blake scored 30% of our points in the quarter in the 9 minutes he played. I don't think it's fair to point HIM out as being terrible.

    7 freaking TOs in the 1st quarter. Should be down 20 the way we're playing. Come on, this is the Toronto Raptors, not the Celtics. Protect the damn ball.

    Might as well get Outlaw out if he can't hit his shot. Damn we are going to get blow out if we don't turn it around soon. I would hate that to happen after the bad game against the Celtics.

    So, this was our response after the Boston loss.

    It wouldn't surprise me to see a poor stretch of basketball coming our way over the next 10 games.

    We're on pace for something like 34 TO's tonight... and we show no signs of doing any better this quarter.

    The Blazers look flat-out asleep out there. The rigors of this early schedule have finally caught up with them.

    And who the hell are these announcers on NBA-TV? Good jesus, these east-coast blowhards make me want to put a pistol in my mouth.

    Toronto - Blazers game thread

    Turnovers and no defense the story of the first part of the game. Ugh.
