    If this is the kind of fouls they will be calling, Houston can get to the finals just on james harden getting to the line. Holy shit

    two touch fouls go against Portland in a physical 1st quarter.
    Cute.

    Shitty foul call but can't blame refs for this quarter.

    So many missed shots missed by CJ. That's the story so far. That and Evan Turner outscoring Anthony Davis.

    Atrocious officiating.

    Even worse defense by Portland.

    Blazers are going to need to hit some shots. That was ugly and if not for some unexpected scoring from Turner, we could be down a bunch more.

    Not exactly the start that I hoped for. But considering Damian and CJ didn't provide much scoring 3 *total* points, it's surprising they're only down 3 points.

    You know.....it seems like almost every game I say to myself "wow, that was the worst quarter of Blazers basketball I've seen all season".

    And then the next game.....they always prove me wrong.
