    I hope we don't just pack it in. I want to see some intensity to finish this game.

    Yeah, after three fucking overtimes. I'm saying it was a 13 point game with not a not left, and then the Celtics went up for most of the rest of the quarter. They turned the game around in about 2 and a half minutes.

    Honestly it looks like the old Blazers defense is back. No pressure being put on anyone. Ron Artest's pts have come pretty easy tonight.

    I don't believe we will win....nor that it's likely. But I think that it's still beyond a reasonable doubt.

    Yo Blazer fans -- don't get down, dammit! We've got a great team of young guys and reasonable contracts. We got ambushed in game 1, but otherwise held serve at home. There is no reason to be angry here. Disappointed, sure, but not angry.

    P.S. Comparisons between Oden and Noah in these two series, against these two opponents, are patently absurd.

    Actually yeah, we can TO out of Blake and Outlaw if we want and have more cap space.

    Portland has better pieces than pretty much everyone in the league.

    That said there are pieces they need to cut loose, and can frankly afford to. This will be an interesting season for KP, because he has to make decisions that will affect the team in the short term as well.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Pritchard has a team option on Outlaw, if that's what you meant.

    I'm quite sure it'll be exercised.

    He's done this shit off and on all season Minstrel. I'm just glad people are finally seeing it when it matters. When it really counts. You can't have people like Travis Outlaw on your team when you're in the playoffs. Losing a game can cost you the series, and players like Outlaw are the type of guys who cost you games.
