    Trip is dead on. Houston has come in and stepped on our neck. Do we have a response? That's what Playoff basketball is about.

    The refs are swallowing their whistles on the Blazers' end. Typical.

    Two things from my seat in the garden:

    1 - fuck the blazers for their ticket sales. There are empty seats all over the arena. There are four empty seats right next to me. That shouldn't happen.

    2 - houston shot 80 percent for most of the quarter. That's fucking insane. They can't keep that up.

    It's insane that Houston scored over 30 in the opening quarter. Just Houston hitting everything they throw up. I was shocked when the Battier 30 footer didn't go in.

    Aldridge needs to step it up a bit. He's getting burned defensively and kind of a blur on the offense right now. He's trying to set up but he is getting swarmed.

    Roy is a madman though. Without him, we'd be down 20.

    How exactly is that the Blazers' fault?

    That's not true. It just means we have to win one in Houston. But it's not over yet.

    Oden nice move in the post. Let's see if Houston's 2nd line can keep up the hot shooting.

    Why is Channing Frye in this game. Why are one of Aldridge or Roy not on the floor.
