    I'm terrified of players like Von Wafer and Brooks just going batshit in the fourth because of our very suspect defense. That would open up things for Scola and he wouldn't be as hesitant I think.

    I'm 70% sure Houston will lose. If we're down 3 with 6 minutes to go, it's almost a guarantee that we'll go dry from the field. It's so hard to win 2 in a row.

    The Blazers confidence is sky high right now. That's the most important thing.

    I heard it's mixum. Dunno if there's truth to the rumor. But he goes big or not at all. Usually for him, it's just not at all.

    The one thing I don't like how Oden is getting reffed is that when he is fronting Yao, Yao holds Greg's arm and turns away from Greg and the foul goes on Oden. Seems like that has happened a couple of times this series. I wish the refs were looking for that.

    How many fouls do we have left to use between our centers? 4? We'll need them.

    Portland is flat out not allowed to use any part of their bodies to guard a 7'6" 330lb robot. No, we can't use our hands. We can't use our hips. Our arms, our feet, our heads, our pinkies. Doesn't matter. We as much as touch "the golden robot," "the ratings machine," it's a foul. Period.

    I don't care that we're ahead right now. I may have to give up on the NBA all together. It's wrestling.

    The guy who jumped up in the black jersey when Blake hit his three? I think it was MM.

    Travis just has to keep rebounding and taking smart shots. If he's open for a three but feels a guy coming from behind him he needs pump fake and let that guy fly by him rather than dribble into double coverage.

    That's Nate's job. So far, he's been absent in that regard.

    I don't feel comfortable unless Roy is in there.
