    This comes from the Philly game, but he is saying it's also stemming from recent games:

    We've never gotten calls in the history of the franchise...it's a non story if you're a long time fan because we never get ref love.....ball don't lie was invented in Portland by Sheed.....it's a tradition

    I have seen what he is talking about for a while now. I mean some games he has gotten calls but for the most part he doesn't get the star calls these other guys get. It's frustrating to watch meanwhile somebody like harden doesn't have to do much to get a whistle. Dame actually gets hit, I don't think I have seen him try to sell calls. Harden lives off selling calls

    He hit the floor hard after no calls against Philly about 4 times. Of course that's not why we lost the game, but it didn't help.

    Portland has actually been in the top half of the league in FTA the last 3 years. For a jump shooting team, that's pretty good.

    Well so far teams haven't had to guard Nurk because he's going too fast and airballing lay ups
