    our fans are stupid and dont realize booing just makes them want to beat us that much more. If we boo Jarrett, I am sending someone high up in the Blazers front office a nasty letter. We want to be known as a classy fan base, not a philly fan base.

    I thought we had the benefit of the whistles tonight over the lowly Clips. It didn't help us win because of Blakes missed free throws but it should have given us the game.

    You can't blame him. It was only the last couple of minutes. You have to look back and see what mistakes other players made in the first half and blame THEM, too.

    That was a huge bummer. Watching the game, I mostly just felt bad for Blakey... he's got to be feeling terrible right now. Imagine going from the high of winning that Toronto game, to losing a chance to seal this one.

    Roy didn't get much help, outside of Aldridge.

    Our D needs major work, no? Esp on the perimeter, we are getting flat out torched. Having Marty back will help some...

    oh no doubt we have played7 more games than the hornets at this point, and most on the road. if we can shake off these couple of bad losses, or schedule is going to get ALOT more manageable, when everybody elses is getting harder.

    i stand by my choke comment though. worst i have ever seen.

    Blake, I love you and all but Roy is out there giving his life blood to get a win and you can't pull it together enough to make a free throw. I hear that Blake is so competitve in practice but his competitve state of mind can't close a game on the free throw line . . . and he had four chances. I was happy Blake got fouled and had a chance to redeem himself because I figured his mental makeup would not allow him to miss (in my mind making a free throw is mostly mental). I could go on and on but let me just say:

    AHHHHHHHHHH!

    This team needs to rest, regroup and figure a way to win games without having to have Roy give up his body each and every game . . . at this pace Roy won't last the season, but you know he will go down swinging . . . it's in his blood.
