    Its hard to win when they call every foul on AD. Even fouls he commits he goes to the line.

    is CHRIS WEBBER the worst ever? I believe he just said Carmelo was the 2nd pick after Lebron. LOL Everyone except him I guess remembers Darko Milicic.

    LeBron has as many assists as the Blazers do as a team: 10.

    Lakers have 11 as a team.

    No surprise Gabriel has 4 fouls but he is active. Sure could use a Collins/Gabriel rotation in this series if Collins isn’t badly injured. Wear Davis out.

    We getting kill on the boards right to me that what making the Lakers stay in the game. Plus we need more help in scoring besides Dame and Nurk.

    Well.... let's be honest... the Blazers couldn't really play worse than they did in that 2nd Quarter...

    But... WAIT... THE 3RD QUARTER SAYS... THERE'S MORE!!!

    Hopefully CJ and Trent hit some shots in the second.

    This game is pissing me off. The refs are giving AD fouls no matter what. Gabriel should have like 1 foul.

    What makes me confident is, i think the 3rd quarter was the 2nd quarter this time

    Davis has 21 points and LeBron has a near triple double. Hardly the worst half of their season.

    We had our 3rd quarter in the 2nd. So hopefully we don't have a 3rd quarter in the 3rd quarter

    That's a shot he probably makes 1/3 of the time. That's 1 point per shot, which makes it mathmatically the right play.

    Refs realize this is the playoffs right? Holy hell, let the ticky tack shit go. That quarter was awful to watch

    Melo/McCollum combined for 4/15. Not good!
