    Thats pretty upsetting but then you give up a 37-7 run to the knicks and really have to pretend it was a bad dream. i mean are the players just blocking nate out or are they just not able to play defense???? i mean teams on the road on back to backs dont give up up those kind of runs. whats worse is the knicks are the 2nd worst shooting team in the nba lol.

    I mean 4 games in a row we have been beat down at some point.... nobody else is concerned with this??? Pretty f@ckin scary!

    Not worried. Not scary at all.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Most teams get "beat down" for a stretch in games. Basketball is a game of runs.

    I think Portland should have beaten New York by more than 1 point, but their manner of achieving that 1-point victory isn't a concern to me.

    In the interests of conservation and sustainability, I think MIXUM should limit himself to one whiny-assed post after each Blazer win.

    Curious as to how may OT posts have been moved by you to the OT board since the Katie Shearer thread. :dunno:

    Well, not to agree with mixum, but we haven't played the best basketball the last few games. Sometimes I get the feeling they think they can just turn it on in the 4th quarter and win the game instead of playing 4 quarters.

    Maybe you should be curious how many OT posts or threads have EVER been moved by me to the OT board.

    Or maybe you shouldn't. I don't really give a shit.

    Is it just me, or are those guys biting a dead horse, rather than beating it?
