    Just want to say that I appreciate that Mediocre Man is on our board. He is a true Blazer fan and I appreciate his insight.

    He also takes the risk of being wrong sometimes; I appreciate that.

    I rewatched the whole game- the second time is just as good as the first. :)
    What a magical game this was. It played kind of like a Hollywood movie about redemption, both for the Blazers as a team and for Roy, as a player.

    This game is what legends are made out of. I feel so fortunate to have witnessed this game.

    You know, its crazy, like most of you I have gone back and watched the 4th quarter again and watched all the video and audio highlight clips on here and usually when you watch things again (especially if you are watching them over and over :)) you start to pick apart other things you didnt notice or it will start to lose is amazing quality. But the more I watch this the more I am amazed. What Roy did was so unreal but watching again I noticed at least 3 big assists and 1 huge offensive rebound. He did it all the 4th quarter. There is "on fire" and there is fate. If even one thing happened different in that 4th quarter we probably would have lost. This kind of fate is so so rare for Blazer fans which made it that much more special. I wish my boys had been older to see this live and truly appreciate it.

    No doubt. He even got in the way of Chandler strolling to the rim and forced him to take a shot that he missed. And he was on Terry for the final shot of the night which Terry missed. Roy was in on practically every play of the fourth quarter.

    On fire is hitting a couple shots over people and getting some loose balls. Fate is hitting a 3 pointer AND being fouled in the process.

    On Thursday morning, Brandon's PER was -7.9 iirc. This morning, it's 22.2. That's some good home cooking!

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    After re-watching the game, I'm struck by how "comeback from 18 down with a quarter to go" actually undersells how epic the comeback was. Portland was really down by 21 with about a quarter to go.

    Anthony Carter is currently pulling a BRoy. Yes. Anthony freakin Carter has brought the Knicks back from 23 down to just a 4pt deficit against Boston.

    Yeah, I was watching this and the similarities were striking. Carter, like Roy, went from scrub to super sub. :lol:
    23 points down in the 3rd. But it doesn't look like the Knicks will finish the comeback

    Yeah, but I was referring to the score just before Roy's three pointer seconds before the quarter ended. For all intents and purposes, there was just one quarter left, time-wise, just before that three.
