    Portland sucks against teams that can pressure BROy and take the ball out of his hands. There are not many teams that can, but Philly is one. Didn't help that the refs sucked early in this game ( Javie at home) Philly is hammering Roy on every possession, their PG's are pushing off, three times I have seen spin moves that they have taken 4 steps. But the bottom line is Philly plays great pressure D and we can not handle it. (That inludes Roy, Rudy,a nd Travis not just our PG's) Once Oden went out of the game, the lead ballooned. Go to the zone and get Oden back in.

    Are we trying to make a playoff run or go back to the old Blazers. This is defense from the beginning of the season. I can't seem to figure out why we don't even try and take the ball inside and draw some fouls on these guys.

    Oden is the only guy with a + on the Blazers

    Beginning of the season? We won 14 of our first 20 games.

    I'm more concerned with the pattern developing of not protecting home court so well lately...

    We did and they didn't call the fouls. The refs set the tone which was in Philly's favor. They are pushing and slapping on every play. Early on it did not go both ways.

    Oh yeah! Aldridge scores, then defensive rebounds, then draws a foul. He's making things happen in the 2nd half.

    76ers can't score in this quarter. Great D by Portland.
