Yep, slightly. But it made a difference. Here's his post game interview. I know I complain incessantly about our iso plays late in games, but I feel so confident with the ball in the guy's hands when we need a bucket. [video=youtube;EZl2DHo9no0]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZl2DHo9no0[/video]
I don't get it. It's been hours, but every time I check, the score is still 74-76. When are they gonna play the 4th quarter???
Because we didn't get up for the game. Probably looking forward to the Suns game. I'm just glad we manage to win even though we played so bad. I know there are going to be a lot of negative posts becaue of this game, but just imagine how it'd be if we lost!
we really dont deserve the win BUT its huge considering the rockets loss and play the knicks and bulls next. by far... worst blazer game ive seen in 2 years that we won. and why the hell does mike miller and randy foye always play well vs us? its like they love to beat us. member late last season when foye and the twolves almost beat us? foye missed a three for the win. but man, i hope it was the days off that fucked up the blazers and not the front office turmoil. and i will tell you right now.... kp is not making it through this summer as a blazer. its over. the team knows it, the press knows it, and deep down the fans are starting to know it. what once looked so promising has turned into a complete disaster. Ever since hedo turned us down... things went south. thats the curse.
What the fuck? Every win is meaningful. It can be the difference between making the playoffs and not making the playoffs. It can be the difference between winning a championship and not winning a championship? If the Blazers reached Game 7 of the NBA Finals and it was a really ugly game in which both teams played poorly but we WON, would you consider the title meaningless? In 2006, Dwyane Wade missed two free throws at the end of Game 6 of the 2006 NBA Finals. It opened the door for Terry to hit a three that would've tied or won it, can't quite remember, but that's the point. Does anyone remember that? That he essentially choked?? No. They remember that he won Finals MVP and they won the title. A win is a win.
BUt we would've gotten better. We would've grown together as a team, learned how to play with each other, and gotten better as the season went on.
Bullshit. When a game is tied and the shotclock is off, you give the ball to your best player and ask him to shoot it at the buzzer. You don't want the other team to get the ball back. That is the only play to call in that situation.
That was the dumbed down version. Mixum had to tear the front sheet off his notepad and crumble it up after we won. Had we lost there would be 3 new threads about how KPee sucks, Batum's overrated, Roy a chock artist and Webster, Bayless and Roy need to be traded.
im glad everyones making excuses for a last second 2 point home win vs the wiZards where 76 points won the game lol.
Who is everyone, Mixum? The two or three people? Are you conveniently ignoring everyone who said that was an awful game and probably the ugliest of the season? Do you just make up random people in your head who you think say things so you can count them in your "everyone making excuses" group?
They're not coming down on your opinion and defending the team - they're tired of your presentation style. There is a difference.
While that peformance was horrible, I hope it is an anomaly. If Portland plays like that vs Phoenix on Sunday, we will get punked by 70.
We could have beat the Wiz by 20 and we are still gonna get spanked in Phoenix! They just hammered the Jazz. That sucked that we played so poorly last night, but it still counts as a "W" whether you guys like it or not.
