    So...umm...can anyone tell me what happened after the time out, since the link died?

    And WTF was the deal setting up LaMarcus for a three pointer in the corner when Rudy is in the game? (Or come to think of it...EVER!)

    Someone should be flogged.

    Why? For saying that Oden doesn't need to be considered a franchise savior? The Blazers lost this game, and Joel has had 11/11/4 games. I'm just happy to see Oden look active and explosive. I'd like to see him get some primary touches on offense. He was basically Joel on a good night tonight.

    That was a good game. I think the refs thought so too since they were spectating it as well.

    A few things. First, we have no idea how to use Oden. We don't get him the ball nearly enough.

    Second, Oden is still at 50% of his effectiveness. He doesn't know what he's doing.

    Third, Oden didn't even play 30 minutes.

    Fourth, Przy didn't have a game like that in his second game.

    GO is going to be special.

    It was a good game. The Hornets made some clutch shots. Sure we could have played better, but heck we took them down to the final min on their court and didn't play our best. I feel good! Mainly about Oden! He didn't look near as out of it as he did in just his last game. I thought it'd take a few more games to get him to this point.

    Let's take care of Minny and GS and that will make us 7-4. I'll take that.

    The difference was nerves. He just balled tonight. He didn't think; he just played.

    OK, but plenty of players have had much better 3rd games to a career. Let Greg become Greg. that is the point that I gathered from Cowherd and Dawson. I didn't see the need to call them out on a message board for having a valid point of view.
