Poor defense overall. Aldridge just watched the play instead of getting over to help on the baseline. Oden either had to hip check or give up the dunk. Two cheap fouls on Batum. Fuck being a young team is frustrating.
You know. Nate has always said the PNR was the most effective play in basketball.....and he hardly ever uses it.
Yeah, this ref work doesn't bode well for the Blazers. The refs are calling all of the ticky-tack stuff on one end of the court. Hopefully it balances out, but....
Just once I'd like to see what a winning coach would do with this team. What would Phil Jackson do? What would Jerry Sloan do? What would Greg Popovich do? I'm just curious. Is it Nate, or is it the team?
Agreed. When one teams drives to the hoop and the other team shoots jumpers, it's natural that the foul number are going to be imbalanced. Ed O.
