    And we failed to deliver again.

    Is it that hard to start Bayless over Fernendez?

    Is game 4 a super sense of urgency game?

    Well, we certainly aren't winning three straight against them if we lose Game 4. We need to make it a three-game series.

    I'm starting to think that Portland thought this was a ONE game series....last two games have been very hard to watch.

    If you missed the stat at the end of the broadcast...The Blazers are 0-14 in series where they lose game 3 after being tied 1-1. Let's hope we make history!

    BUT! They are 0-0 in series against Phoenix this year when they lose game 3 after being tied 1-1. Anything can happen!

    Hey Nate, speed it up in the regular season, and you won't need a sudden "sense of urgency" in the playoffs!

    Urgency when we fall behind 30 points at one point and the game 3 still turns into a rout? With Roy and Batum out, the Blazers are fucked with an inconsistent bench that can't hit 3's. Channing Frye is doing awesome and that was a big no no from blazer management for letting him go. We have no outside 3 pointer threat any more.

    Many times last season McMillan could find no one to hit from outside, while Frye was waving a towel as the cheerleader.
