    The thing you have to remember is that ultimately they are commentators for ESPN. They have to report the way ESPN wants them to. Doris Burke does about as well as any that you could ask for.

    This is true but tough to do. Fighting that hard on defense takes away from offense every time.
    Here is another way to look at it? I think they can out score this team. They could come out and play straight offense and just trade baskets at this point.
    I'm looking for a tough shooting game from both teams. They are both tired.
    Blazers at home can have a home court advantage and make some shots that maybe the Nuggets will be hard pressed to get. At least lets hope they can.
    One good shooting game is all it takes to go up 3-1 in this series. I would love to see Dame start hitting the 32-35 foot zone. If that happens he can put this team down today.

    As I said before the series started, just Win one on the road and protect home court. Don’t be like the Spurs who gave home court back to the Nuggets. We are not winning 2 games at Denver so we need to win this game.

    I didn't forget that. :) I was just commenting on my opinion of it and for me personally, it negatively affects the viewing experience. However it's a lot better than listening to McHale hate on the Blazers all game, I think TNT is seriously trolling Blazer fans with McHale at this point. Maybe they're trolling McHale? It's obvious he's got some hard feelings and I actually understand! It's gotta be rough having had Dame drop .9 on him and his team, but he is so obviously not into it...
    Wish we could get ESPN commentators w/ inside the NBA.

    I didn't really think about that? Maybe they are purposely trolling McHale? Maybe someone at ESPN doesn't like him and they are making him go to Portland and watch Dame over and over again like Groundhog day?

    Both teams are tired look around mid third quarter to see which team legs go out on them. This game might be who bench does the best is the team that wins.
