    We need to get our shit together here. One way or another, we need to get back into the game.

    Houston is ridiculously good at those sneaky little grab-n-hold moves. I'm not sure how that can best be countered, but Portland has got to find a way.

    Aldridge is having another terrible game. Tough to win when your second leading scorer can't put the ball in the hoop.

    LMA is taking terrible shots. He seems lazy offensively.

    Yeah, he's looking super hesitant, and the fouls ain't helping.

    Hell, I'm ready to give him a try! Maybe he can duplicate that 12 assist in 18 mins game.

    Three players on Roy and Blake can't make them pay. We are not going to win in Houston like this and might get eliminated in the game I'm going to if this continues!

    I like Blake's offense of dribble at the top of the key until there is two seconds left then pass to a guarded Roy for a three pointer .

    Now Blake is afraid to shoot. Not that I blame him.

    Our depth is our only edge.

    Use it or lose it.

    I'd say the same about not playing TO, or Nic, or Greg, or Rudy, or Channing.

    Nate is simply making Rick's job much simpler.

    37 pts in the first half.

    0 pts in the first 4 minutes of the 2nd half.

    We NEED Sergio in there NOW.

    Otherwise he'll get a lot of PT anyway as we'll be in garbage time after a few more minutes here.

    Forget this game, I'm going to watch the Chimp show on the animal planet. It's a lot more interesting than this shit. The Blazers can't even make a fucking basket. Once again, they are pissing themselves instead of going out and playing ball!

    So you're turning off the game?
