Well, we should have blown this team out. They were ice cold and we had them on the ropes, but we didn't put them away. We let them back in. They are a good team. The refs fucked us over at the end, but it shouldn't have come to that. Our offense sucks.
Hahahahaha Oden cost us this game? I don't think so. We went away from interior scoring, and chucked quick outside shots. Also, we lost because we were outrebounded. Then you add Blake making bone-head decisions, while Miller sits on the bench. I think KP needs to force the issue and get rid of Nate's best friend.
The Denver game was. If Outlaw or Blake miss the free throws to lose the Nuggets game, you'll call them a ***got. But if Oden does it, eh, it's okay.
And some of those were wide open 3's. No matter how you slice it, 3/11 just ain't good. Not bashing Blake on his shooting, but let's keep it real here.
This is nothing new, before or after Donaghy. I've seen it a thousand times. Yes, the Blazers played poorly in the 4th and in overtime. With equal officiating, we still win anyway. It's frustrating.
I get so tired of you picking on Oden when he is still learning but stick up for shit players like Blake and Outlaw. They have 5+ years experience and make many more bone head plays then Oden ever did or will. Blake should not be playing as many minutes as he is and should never be a starter over Miller which he was to start the season.
Okay. Our team made a few mistakes down the stretch, missed some open shots, refs missed some calls. Let's put this loss behind us and start a new winning streak on Wednesday. GO BLAZERS!!!
