    Yes. I'm watching the game. People in here are saying that Oden isn't getting the ball. But he IS getting the ball and he's turning it over. I saw those three turnovers with my very own eyes.

    Travis has a better line then Roy as well, what's your point?

    Travis is the team best according to Yahoo.

    Oden had 4 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 block, countless altered shots and we were up three when he went to the bench. He had two turnovers one of which looked like a foul but was called a travel on Greg. There wasn't a replay so I didn't get a better look. Regardless Trout having a great game. Good for him and good for the team.

    One can be careless with the ball without "making stupid passes". Greg often has a tendency to hold the ball in a place and/or manner which is easily accessible for the defender. How many times has he been stripped going up for a dunk because he cocked the ball back behind his head for more power instead of just going straight up?

    Supporting him is great, but let's not be myopic and overlook continued flaws in his game.

    Doesn't seem likely.

    Oden: 4 rebounds
    Outlaw: 3 rebounds

    Always fun to play the Houston Rockets and their referees.

    We would be crushing this damn team if the refs weren't all over our ass.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Too many unforced errors...offensive fouls and turnovers. That's really what's killing Portland.

    THOSE are the shots that Outlaw should be taking.

    But some of these calls... Bah. The refs are rusty.

    Perhaps he's been reading the board and wanted to prove to us that he's more than a chucker. Oh, wait...
