    He had two when that post was made, which was before Oden was even in the game.

    And then they get a free throw and we lose the game by one? No thanks. Plus, he sets an example to his players to get techs. That is the old days. This is a new era.

    b/c their fucking franchise sucks, so the NBA has to bring money to it, by throwing the game in their favor w/the reffing.

    Can u guys seriously believe those fouls on oden? and we're not getting called on any of the mid-air bumping on the pdx end....complete bullshit.

    It's pretty obvious that Rudy is hurting. I really don't think he'll be back.

    Oden pretty regularly makes some idiotic fouls, but I can't remember seeing a player so disrespected in the league than him. It's fucking amazing.

    Jesus fucking Christ I feel bad for Greg Oden. The refs are targetting him, this is just so horrible to watch. He can't cough without being called for a foul.

    I'll give the exception to Rudy especially that hard hit he took. Sergio and Channing didn't give us anything.

    Oh definitely. Greg does make some dumb fouls that he'll learn from - all rookie big men go through this. But the blatant disregard for people flopping on him, people committing offensive fouls against him that turn into defensive fouls for him, the barely touch fouls, the fouls where he has his arms up, he's completely still, and a guard bounces off of him and he's called for a foul... it is just insane.

    Sometimes it really seems like the NBA is trying to break him, which is contradictory to what I thought they would do.... I thought we would finally have a player that would get some ref love.... I was wrong.

    I'm pretty positive at this point that someone could bring a chainsaw onto the court, cut off Greg's leg, and it'd be a foul on him. It's just getting ridiculous especially when you see other players make the same 'fouls' on the other end, or you know actual hard fouls, and nothing at all is called.
