    Oden's offensive foul costs us a chance to win the game but no one calls HIM a ***GOT

    This game was lost mainly because our big men didn't get to the rebounds. Yeah blake sucks, but mainly the outrebounding was the main reason we lost.

    This is what keeps me from getting into the NBA as much as I was a child. When you start seeing bogus call after bogus call, it makes you wonder. Portland was favored in this game by a fairly sizable margin. In Atlanta. Against a good Atlanta team. Call after call against Portland. After Donaghy, it really makes one wonder.

    The team also lost a 10 point point lead in the 4th.

    Exactly. Oden's turnovers, fouls, missed shots don't matter. Blake's do.

    I guess we played pretty well, considering we had the disadvantage of going 4 on 9 (5 Hawks + 3 refs + Blake) most of the game.

    Apparently you must just look at the box score. Did you see his defense tonight? Absolutely lockdown defender.

    Wow, look at that goal tending on Rudy's 3 pointer. Oh my God.

    Damn... we should've won this game with a double-digit lead for most of it.

    can't win 'em all

    4-1 road trip is awesome.

    Hawks beat us. 6 game win streak. Hawks beat us.

    8-4

    Only bad thing is that we don't have the tiebreaker if we face Atlanta in the Finals.

    One of those misses was a half-court fling. Another was because nobody would come to the ball when he was in trouble late.

    I guess those 9 Assists mean nothing, as well? :dunno:

    These refs are beyond bad. There is no word to describe how atrocious they have been late in this game. It's an embarrassment to the league. What a disgrace.
