    Refs made this a free throw contest. They gave free throws evenly to both teams down the stretch and we missed, they didn't. There goes the season.

    Damn.. Oden now is such a liability offensively with Nate not wanting to give him touches. He just has no confidence with the ball in his hands. Gotta feed the big guy early and get him involved.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Outlaw blew the game with that miss in the second quarter. He hits that and Portland has two more points. They lost by 1. OUTLAW BLEW THE GAME FOR US.

    :cheers:

    Roy blew the game.

    Miller blew the game.

    LaMarcus blew the game.

    All missed crucial free throws.

    Outlaw didn't play at all in the 2nd half, my guess is he was injured.

    Oden missed two!

    I hope he doesn't pull a Nick Anderson on us.

    Yes, less likely now than if we had won. However, I still think we can and will take the division.

    Better defense on Melo in the 4th, and the game doesn't come down to Oden at the line.

    Just what we need... another knock for Oden's confidence. This will stick with him especially when we lose the division by a game.
