    The Bucks just did what the Blazers and Thunder could not. They won a Game 5 on the road. Impressive.

    I wish I could have watched it ... sounds like they closed out the game on a 14-0 run.

    Was a great game to watch. 6 minutes left the hawks were up by 10 and thought they had the game locked so they stopped playing agressive D. The bucks hit some huge shots coming off ridiculous plays and the hawks couldn't buy a shot or a trip to the free throw line.

    The Bucks are showing that you can go really far with a young, dynamic PG.

    It's Darrin Collison or bust for me this off season. The Blazer offense could really use a PG that isn't completely shut down by Old Man Hill.

    The John Salmons trade was the biggest trade of the season.

    I don't know what this has to do with the Blazers.

    He was available on the trade market for a long time too. I'm sure the team's thinking was that we didn't need him because he would have taken shots away from Rudy.

    Straw man argument? Just making an observation on how this management never seems to trade for scorer that are on the trade market.

    Hey this awesome thread reminds me...

    I watched a sporting event last week where a team did something the Blazers haven't done.

    Really makes you wonder if Portland can ever do this thing this other team did.

    They have a player whose good. Wonder why Portland doesn't have a player like this other player on this other team.

    Amazing

    So analyzing how other teams are finding success that eludes the Blazers isn't a worthwhile endeavor? This team doesn't follow the pattern of success at it's own peril.

    I know. Doesn't the Orlando sweep of Charlotte get you totally depressed? That's what WE could have done.

    You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to OddEnormous again.

    Jamal Crawford was 0-5 the last 2:10 as the Hawks blew their lead. I felt bad for him, considering he had such a nice regular season. I wonder if Joe Johnson, Al Horford, or Josh Smith punched him in the mouth after the game for not passing them the ball while he was losing the lead for them.

    I remember KP wanting him last season. Wish we had him now.

    Real men don't learn from others! Just stop that kind of wussy thinking!

    Besides, if the Bucks win the series , it will just be dumb luck....and crooked refs.....and a favorable match-up......and....and.....

    But the Blazers won game one and Milwaukee didn't!

    If you are going to point out something Milwaukee did that Portland didn't, I'd suggest the fact the Milwaukee won both of their home games and now have a chance to close it out (at home).
