    Didn't the Blazers get blown out that game, yet win the series?

    It's games like this that makes me think Portland shouldn't even be in the NBA.

    This is going to be a long long long game. We need someone to attack the basket.

    Pathetic. I'm amazed the Blazers aren't down 20 right now.

    Blazers need a pick-me-up from the RG crowd.

    that and poor shot selection and the Mavs have had easy access to the paint. In reality, the Blazers should be down by double of what they are.

    It's games like this that makes me think I should have given up being a Blazer fan decades ago.

    Aldridge has reverted to his pre-revival attitude, and teams are just packing the paint when he drives (always to the right), so he either gets stripped, tries a bad pass to the outside, or falls down. He's completely stopped driving towards the basket, he's either trying some sweeping hook shot or backs off for some half-assed fadeaway.

    Miller needs to get back in and Aldridge needs to get into the paint and sotp this outside shooting crap. If we are down less then 10 by halftime i'm gonna be shocked.

    the 91 conference finals was the turning point for that. It made me jaded, cynical and a non believer in fair play.

    not saying the score here is due to bad reffing. It's because of no effort/sense of urgency by Portland.

    There is a time and place for Rudy/Roy together, and it's keeping an offense hot. Patty would give us a much better chance at a spark.
