    Not a bad first quarter for us.

    I'm not sure that Camby shooting 18-footers should be a go-to play, but we're up one. Carry the toughness over.

    Oh PapaG, quit worrying about the meta debate and focus on the topic at hand. This is the fucking playoffs. Get over your little personal problems.

    We didn't lose any points with Aldridge on the bench. Nice.

    We went almost seven minutes between our 4th and 5th team fouls. Dallas dropped the ball big time on not driving against us to get free throws.

    It's so he can have Aldridge or Camby @ Center at all times. It makes sense.

    Yeah, I'm pretty encouraged about how we're playing right now. Not our best ball, and I feel like we're in control.

    And Roy didn't play the zone correctly. I don't understand what's so hard to understand? Kidd wasn't his cover, but he allowed the penetration that set up the bucket.

    Bash on Blazer players in a play-off game thread, I'm going to call you out, though. It's just so fucking tiresome, and much worse than anything MIXUM did on this board.

    Oh, and please keep on topic. My post praising Roy for his stop on Kidd and jumper on the other end was on topic. Your post is not.

    Not a horrible move...get some subs in and figure out what you have early. Nothing that happens in the last 4 minutes of the first will impact the game severely...get LMA some rest, see what Roy, Rudy and Batum are giving you tonight, and then ride LMA through the second quarter

    You said Roy was in the paint. Miller allowed the penetration; Roy was on the high wing. Either way, it was one shot, and hardly woth the hysterics.

    Rudy hit his first three. That's a good sign.

    I've posted both positive and negative posts. Your insinuation that every post in a playoff thread should be sugar and spice is well...laughable.

    I like Wes, I think he was a great pickup, but I feel like his defense was slightly overstated. He doesn't seem like the lockdown defender that he was made out to be.
