First Round Game 4: Blazers @ Rockets Thread

There is NO PLACE in the playoffs for players like Outlaw who rely on their athleticism as opposed to their brains.

 

Thanks, refs for not allowing Portland to play any sort of defense.

Fuck you.

 

Even if we lose this game, we can still win the series. Gotta win 3 games and two of them are at home.

 

I blame fucking Shavlik, that guy has done nothing for us the whole damn series

 

It's the curse of a Dukie.

 

Man, the refs must read the paper or get some big payola because they are absolutely horrible again. I'd love to hear a Rockets' fan tell me they are being impartial in this game too. Blazers need to step it up a notch and bring it inside a little more if possible. We have shooters get open like the Rockets, but everybody passes rather than shoot.

 

Outlaw= 2 pts, 2 blks, 100% FGs

 

I kinda like the Bulls idea of playing 7. I think this game demands that...unless fouls require more...shorten the rotation on the road.

 

not if we continue play as we have in. The blazers are digging themselves into this hole.

 

I love that one ref has single-handedly decided Portland's bigs won't play tonight. He has made every stinking foul call on our bigs - even Garretson looked surprised on the first one.

 

The refs are being impartial.

You're welcome.

 

Because technical fouls work. We give up a point, we don't get these bullshit fouls called against us.

 

Nate taking the fucking high road again. Jesus, start fighting for your guys!

 

I still want to know how Greg got that 2nd foul. That was fucking bullshit. This is playoff ball. Why single Greg out? Why is he the only one being ref'd by a different set of rules? It's criminal. Really.

 

Our boy David Stern loves China...that's for dam sure.

 

jesus why didnt outlaw hit that wide open three he had?

 

We have to FUCKING rebound. Our bigs aren't doing anything to keep Yao and Scola off the glass.

 

Wow, the Rockets and their fans are just like my wife....As wrong as they are, when they don't like something...

Bitch...bitch...bitch...cry...shit their pants...cry some more...bitch....bitch...bitch...

Okay, so my wife doesn't shit her pants...but everything else she has in common with the Rockets/their fans...but might as well.

How can they continue to cry about the officiating? Scola's shot was clearly after 24 seconds. Our guys are looking and blinking, and then being called for fouls? God, it's nice that our organization isn't filled with a bunch of bitchy whiners....but fuck...better to be bitches and win...than fair, honest sports and lose. Bitches!

 

See what Adelman does? Wafer commits an obvious foul and Rick is all over the refs. It works. Try it Nate!

 

He hasn't really all year - are any of us surprised at this point?
