First Round Game 5: Rockets @ Blazers Game Thread

So do you guys think Nate's video he sent the league worked?

 

To be fair, I thought the refs let us get away with much more than they allowed the Rockets to do. In that sense, it was like how the game was refereed in Game Three.

I don't want any side favored. I want the refs to pick what they're going to call and stick to it regardless of which team is commiting the fouls. At the end of the series, no matter the outcome, I want to know that each side was given a fair chance and the better/more clutch team won.

 

That was one of the best 25k Nate has ever spent. By the way, I want to give him some kudos for doing that. Part of remembering we have a young team, is we also have a young coach as well. He is still learning. Over the last 2 days, he has made adjustments on complaining about the ref screw job, and by inserting Rudy into the starting lineup in the 2nd half.

 

I also wanted to say, it was sure nice last night to see our bigs being more patient against Brooks and Wafer. Last night they were lurking, keeping within distance, and waiting for the block to come to them, rather than trying to body guys out or stay in front of them. Just lurk and block.

 

Blake tied LMA for the most Rebounds!!

 

That's not what the Laker Fans are saying...
