SPURS @ BLAZERS - GAME THREAD

Ticky-tack on Oden. He'll now sit with two.

 

Nate didn't even get to wait til the six minute mark to bring in Pryz.

 

As ticky tacky as they were, those were legit fouls on Oden

 

Sweet, this game's televised up here. I'll participate in this thread.

 

My thoughts exactly. You can tell he's going to get a foul at least 5 seconds before it happens, then the whistle blows.

 

How the fuck is anyone going to call that a foul on Oden? Both were bullshit. Big guys can't bang anymore?

 

Whoa. Roy on a catch and shoot from Miller?

 

I actually don't mind those jerseys. Not as good as your regulars, but they don't look that bad.

 

You can call "legit fouls," based on the rule-book, pretty much every time down. If every big man was whistled as tightly as Oden is, there wouldn't be as much complaint about the refs. Teams could just avoid drafting big men, since they would be useless.

 

I love the jerseys. We look really pumped up for this game. Miller is controlling the ball and Blake/Roy are scrambling to get open looks. Very nice.

 

Oden needs to give him more room.

 

So Oden is supposed to completely back off when defending his man? Just completely back off and concede an easy lay up or dunk? I'm so confused.

Loved Oden's jumper though. Very cool.

 

I see what Oden is doing. It should be an easy fix.


When Duncan rolls across the lane, Greg jumps to the spot instead of moving his feet. Then he always has his arms a little less than vertical.

Greg either needs to slide his feet, or simply jump a little back.

 

Miller looks like he has an extra pep in his step tonight

 

LMA doesn't have it tonight. Ugh. Why can't we shoot 80% from the field?

 

2 fouls on Timmay.

 

Yep

 

Martell for Blake.

 

Then Oden's coach needs to shout down the officials.

 

Steal by Miller...ahead to LMA on the break. 16-10 Blazers.
