    It shouldn't be. I hope the team realizes how pathetic they played tonight and the last few games, and actually does something about it beyond saying cliche's and metaphors.

    Talk is just that, the team needs action.

    I hope the flight is a bunch of Blazers arguing with each other and Greg sleeping in the back of the plane.

    Eric, do you understand what a zone defense is? Do you understand what happens in a zone defense, and where the shots come from when a team concedes the open long two pointer and three point shot?

    You said Greg was under the hoop and being out-hustled by the little guy. Let me break this down for you.

    Big guy under hoop, small guy take long shot, long shot equal long rebound (long equals far) which little guys FAR AWAY (remember far is also another word for long) claim because they are where the long rebound from a long shot goes.

    Long shot, long rebound does not equate possible rebound for guy right under hoop.

    Do you understand now? Can you get all that?

    Your claim was that when Outlaw went out, he had the second best PER on our team, and if you look at the PER numbers now, it's completely false.

    Checkmate.

    Most posters who cry "TROLL" just feel inadequate.

    Their grasp of the game, and sometimes English, is limited. They get out-debated to the point of embarrassment, then they cry troll. In reality, they are the trolls.

    go ahead, folks; call me names, blame ME for the Blazers loss, take it all out on me; so much easier than blaming the #1 draft pick who can't grab more than 6 rebounds against the Warriors

    The funny thing is that our smalls aren't nearly as athletic or dynamic as most other team's smalls so they have more trouble creating their own shot, have more trouble staying in front of their man and basically are exactly the kind of small slow team that the Dubs feast on because they end up launching jumpers that lead to misses and runouts. The fact that LMA sat the entire second quarter and played only 27 minutes is unconscionable ... same goes for letting Blake get 36 minutes when he has a walking mismatch in Jerryd Bayless sitting on the bench.

    Man I usually try to not overreact to coaching, since it still falls on the players to execute, but for some reason this one feels like it belongs to Nate.

    Greg has had a PER of 19 plus since the third game of the season. Roy has had a per of over 19 for the entire season. Travis's PER for the entire season is hovering around 15.

    That'd be a two game sample, Eric. Do you understand?

    Greg not getting rebounds is not why we lost this game. In fact, its the furthest thing from why we lost the game.

    it's BS because it wasn't all long rebounds; i watched the fucking game and little guys were grabbing rebounds right under the basket, in the paint, out-jumping Oden for the ball

    go to NBA Broadband and watch the game again. Your theory will be proven false.

    You're watching the wrong channel then - Oden was not getting outjumped for anything by little guys. Perhaps you're thinking of Roy?

    about 7-8 games into the season, someone posted the PERs of everyone on the team; Outlaw was second; if that person was wrong, then I am wrong; can you post the exact numbers for the entire season, pleasE?
