    Don't forget Travis 1-8. I mean, hes so up-and-down....

    The refs were trying to give us that game in the last 30 seconds and we didn't capitalize.

    I know. I thought the NBA got rid of the replacement refs.

    2nd game out of an 82 game schedule. Do they not teach math at OSU?

    ;)

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    No, they're the bad guys.

    Anyway, disappointing loss, but every team will absorb some of those over the course of the season. Portland just needs to atone for it by beating Denver in Denver this season.

    What? It's true. The refs even tried to give Portland free throws late in the game and they blew it.

    God damn, it's Steve Blake vs. Clippers all over again, only worse.

    But it DID come down to Oden at the line and he choked. Melo's a superstar. He's gonna have some good games no matter what you do. Melo had a game last season where he scored 33 in a quarter.

    the officiating in the last 6 minutes or so of the game was just pathetic. just free throws all over the place on basically nothing.

    Everyone on the team sucks. This is the suckiest bunch of sucks who ever sucked.

    Except Outlaw. When will Portland finally build a team that gives Outlaw a chance at a championship? We saw Garnett waste so many years of his career in Minnesota...now we're seeing it play out with Outlaw. :sigh:

    Travis was 1-8 because he was missing in close, but he kept getting the rebound and we scored on that possession.

    Actually the reason we played houston instead of new orleans is because of our division record...dropping one at home to a division foe cripples the chances...i can do math

    Exactly. If KP doesn't get Outlaw some help soon, he'll bolt.

    Agreed. The refs took the game over a bit too much at the end and made it a FT contest.

    Exactly. You HAVE to win your home games against divisional foes. It doesn't matter if the game is in April or October. Our season is lost. I thought Andre Miller was supposed to be a difference maker? He's horrible. His time has passed. Thank goodness we didn't sign him for too long.
