Gameday Open Thread: Pre-Season Kings at Blazers (With a Small Helping of Sodium Chloride)
Here you go, folks...your first Gameday Open Thread of the year for pre-season Game 1. Enjoy talking about the Kings and Blazers.
However, a small note. Everybody's incredibly geeked up about this season, which is incredibly cool. I still remember the days when the start of the Blazer season was met with mostly shrugs around town. This is much better. But after the relative drought of off-season information, the trickle of pre-season stimulus can seem like a torrent. Beware. It's a long season. We're going to play 82 games in a row that count. The least of those will be more indicative than the entire pre-season and training camp combined. Have fun with the observations and all, but realize we're talking about the preliminary stages of what might be, not hard evidence about what is or will be. Try to have a sense of humor and a little bit of "wait and see" about the conclusions we all try to draw, especially conclusions about individual players. It'll make the next three weeks go easier.

Anybody know..
what TV station this is going to be on?
The Blazers site just says TBA as of 12:30am.
"Well, Travis just showed us that we can go to Travis Outlaw." - Nate McMillan
according to Mike Barrett's blog
Wednesday’s game will be televised on KGW, but tomorrows game will sadly not be on TV.
It ain't broadcasted by the Blazers...
…but it WILL be on TV, because the Kingses are broadcasting the mutha lubber.
If your TV provider somehow has access to Sacramento’s sports channel (I think they got a Comcast channel too), you can watch the Blazer game on TV. DirecTV has such access, and so does Dish Network I bet.
How do ya get your TV juice pumped into your picture box?
Mort—!
Kings Broadcast
I have DirecTV and last season I could watch Sactown vs Blazer games, but I went to channel 638(?) — Comcast Sports Northern Cali (or something like that) last night to set my DVR to record it, and it told me I wasn’t authorized for that channel. I’m hoping that it isn’t blocked for me now for some reason. That would be total suckage.

nice start --- no TV
yea, like I want to watch the big debate tonight instead. Gimme a break. Now I know what non Comcast customer feels like. One more time - Cheese and Rice.
I heard local sports radio jobber say the White Crayola is useless. I wholeheartedly disagree.
Last year we Direct TV'ers
were given free League Pass during the preseason. So I watched us play against Sacremento (twice I think it was) via that route.
Does anyone know if this gratuity has been extended to us this year? I haven’t had the TV on for so long that I would have missed any advertisement of such.
Now that I think about it ....
It may not have been pre-season. It may have been the first handful of regular season games where we were given free League Pass to tempt us into signing up.
I’d sign up in a heart-beat if we weren’t blacked out. Anyone know who determines the black out area? The league? The Blazers? It doesn’t make sense to me that it is extended clear over to the Washington coast.
You might be correct..
The more I think about it, I think was a free preview during the regular season. I remember stumbling across the game last season and was happy it was on.
Oh well..I guess it’s radio or streaming webcast for me.
It makes no sense to black it out all the way to the Washington coast. I don’t understand it. Back during the early 90s run, I’d drive up Interstate 5 to my sisters house in Woodland, Washington just to watch the game on TNT. Blackout range then was around 35 miles I believe.

TWO DEEP AND SLOPPY JOE
Have you guys tried channel 656? If ya both have DirecTV, it should be the same channel for me as for you.
As of 10:30am, nothing is on the channel, but if you have access to it you will be able to turn to the channel. Channel 656 is what my guide says the game will be available on, and it was correct last pre-season…
I see that the game will also be on channel 698, which appears to be a Comcast channel for Northern California (it’s called CSCA). I DO NOT have access to this channel, so unless you live near that area I doubt you’ll have it either.
So, try out channel 656 and hopefully we can crack this case wide open!
OH, plus, on my guide the channels I have access to are shaded differently than channels I can’t watch. Is this the same for you? It might be because I have a DVR receiver, since my bedroom receiver doesn’t do this. It helped me see that I have access to channel 656, where the game will be played today (it’s called "Sun Sports Alternate 656, but the call letters are FLa2, for whatever reason… as long as it plays the Blazer game, it can call itself whatever it wants, of course).
I hope any of this helps…
Good ol’ Mortie
Thanks Morty.
I’ll give it a try for sure. And if it works, I owe you a 6 pack of your favorite micro-brew — or whatever your choice of beverage is.

I checked the schedule for all the Comcast channels I can get and tonight’s game was not listed on any of them. Channelsurfing.net has audio only. Where can I watch this game?

What About Wheels!!!
Look, I know TV is cool ya’ll. But really now, quit yer bitchin’ and tune that radio dial! I have always loved listening to Wheels; he never disappoints. And I know heaps of ya out there listen to the radio while watching the game. Comcast can get bent! TURN ON YOUR RADIO!!!

I like Wheels on Wheels after work
But I dislike him as an basketball announcer. He’s too much of a homer and a whiner for me. Give some credit to other team sometime, Brian. Harvey is also pretty lousy.
Kevin Calabro is free. I say being him in and dump Wheels.

Me too.
His whining really gets to me after awhile. I’m too far away to get direct radio reception for the radio broadcasts, but NBA Audio Pass works dandy. And there I can switch over to the enemy announcers. Some of them are very good and not extremely biased, whereas others send me scurrying back to Wheels.
the point is the game should be televised
we wait all summer with expectations that havent been seen in years and they reward us by denying us the first preseason match-up? Its wrong I tell you, wrong… very very wrong.
Its so wrong I can only imagine tomorrow night the Spirit Mountain Casino commercial will be back.
Bonzi just got back in from burying one in the barkdust and he has the same look on his face PTB officials who decided not to air the game on TV also are wearing.
Its a travesty. Im upset about it. I think I have a right to be. Almost every Bedger, which is the true fan base, has hung in there this summer and done a more then a respectable job representing. And this is our reward?
Im going to listen to it on radio despite my initial reaction of banning it entirely.
For shame PTB. For shame.

DIRECTV CHANNEL 656
Hey everyone my name is Mortimer, I found this site looking for interracial dating tips and I think you’d like it too:
I sez’d this in the junk drawer to make sure no one would read it, but I’ll mention it again— my DirecTV guide sez the game will be on channel 656, live at 7pm, and it is the Kings own broadcast. I’ve had NBA League Pass for the last few seasons, so perhaps the channel isn’t available to all, but check n’ see.
Quite a few of us out there have the ol’ DirecTV, so we’re in luck at least!
I dunno how the online feeds work, but since it IS gonna be on TV, I guess the internet feeds that people watch could steal it so you could watch it.
Pretty much all Blazer pre-season games were on TV last season, either by the Blazers broadcast team or the dreaded nightly enemy’s broadcast team. I bet we’ll still be in luck…
AND NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS, no matter how good or how bad, just remember it is pre-season and likely the first game EVER of any player you might be worried about.
Everyone take it slow and don’t rush to believing we suck just yet… I mean, we DO suck, but you gotta wait for official confirmation.

Ahh!
Good find!
I checked the NBA League Pass channels the other day and they weren’t up yet, it was all NFL channels… I just checked mine and yeah, channel 753 shows the Blazer game for me too.
SO, if anyone out there has had League Pass before, go check your league pass channels regardless of whether or not you got DirecTV.
THIS IS IMPORTANT STUFF PEOPLE.

THAT IT IS.
forgive my comments tone, after reading it it comes off kinda prissy and it was unintended prissyness. the utmost butt kissing to you mortimer…

this has been a message from: "The People's Alliance to Keep Comment Boards Sucka Free"
Does the NBA league pass have preseason games?
The nba.com radio option, would that be working for this? I’d rather watch but that doesn’t sound likely. Let’s keep researching the possibilities.

Tempered expectations are quite prudent.
It’s just the first game of preseason. I hope I don’t have to read comments on how bad reg Oden is after it, like I did after the intersquad scrimmage. Yeah, he’s going to be the next big thing, but c’mon people! He’s still a rookie, who still hasn’t played in a regular season game yet. Of course he’s not quite in the flow yet. Perhaps, just as fans set their hopes to high for the players, I set my hopes too high for the fans.

Similarly, don’t write too much into Bayless shining like a ROY (if he does) – he’ll be playing against Sac’s bench in a practice game.
That said, I’m really anxious to see how the team is meshing. Wish Blake could play so we’d see how they really look, but I guess I can wait one more week. Go Sergio!
I'm looking forward to seeing:
1. The team defense overall.
2. Specifically how they handle opposing drivers. Where do they want to channel them?
3. How well the team rebounds.
4. How much the team runs.
5. How much they want to run the offense through the low post. How many touches does Oden get even if he doesn’t take shots?

dave I was watching some Knicks trainging camp last night
talk about no team defense!

my look for interests include
1. Bayless playing point in Steve Blakes apparent absence
2. Rudy Fernandez and if he really understands how to play D
3. Greg Oden and is he a difference maker
4. The Bench. We be loaded. Perform.
5. Martell. Improvement or same ol’ game?
I’ll watch for your points as well. By watch I mean visualize it as its called on the radio because for some reason the game isnt available for us all on tv as it should be.

yes it is practice but it is also our first chance to see the new team!
I am gleeful with the prospect of listening to the words “Rudy for three!” on the radio.
We cannot put up with this flagrant lack of accountability anymore.
TV
Given the response of the community to the Fanfest, I am dumbfounded that tonight’s game will not be broadcast. It seems like there’s a virtual guarantee that thousands of people will watch the game, and subsequently, the ads. Is there a way we can rally to get this game on TV, or is it too late?
By the way, does anyone else sense that there are at least two overly greedy parties in the comcast fiasco that’s preventing a lot of people from seeing Blazer games?
Blame it oonnn thaaaa RRRAAAIIINNN Oh OH OHHHH :)

I don’t want or need to hold back because this is the preseason, because the Trail Blazers will be playing a 48 minute game in uniforms, with refs, against another NBA team, and that is good enough for me to be completely and totally jacked up!
It’s not about being realistic (whatever THAT means), about this is only the preseason…..it’s a BLAZER game in what I hope will be one of the most magical seasons ever.

We get to learn Batum is a bust!
IT’S BEEN A LONG WAIT, BUT WILL BE WELL WORTH IT. That uppity frog rubs me the wrong way. We gotta teach KP you can’t just draft players based on their adorability! It’s simply not the way to make a great NBA team, but he keeps only drafting cutie pies.
Makes me sick, it does! So sick I could kiss Batum to get revenge for KP drafting him, kissing him so fiercely that he REALLY LEARNS HIS LESSON BUT GOOD.
What’s the over/under on Batum capitulating to the opposing defense and running to the locker room, hiding under his beret? 1 quarter? 2?

SIDE NOTE NOT RELATED: I just turned to NBATV, and it’s that game 7 of Suns vs Sonics where Charles Barkeley had 50 points and 25 rebounds. He just stole a defensive rebound away from Coach Nate and got fouled, and Nate looked mad at himself for not corralling the board.
MAN Nate was skinny! He had the big head he has now, on a 6’5" version of Batum’s body. I always remembered Nate as being thicker than that…

Mort thats so funny i went home for lunch and I was watching that SAME GAME!
I totally forgot sarge was on that team until I saw the Mc jersey. Here’s a cheer’s to Greg smashing like Barkley did in that game, but instead of ending his career with no trophies in this display case much likes Charles has, here’s to Greg’s 15 rings!

I'm prolly just giddy about the game
I actually have real high hopes for Batum, several years down the road.
My bet is that he never goes down to the D-League also, both to have another body in practice and so he learns real NBA defense under Nate and Monty. He’s got something that I like.
And correction: Barkley had 44 points, 24 boards. 50/25 is close enough though.
Prediction
Greg Oden gets 52 and 25 in a single game by the time the playoffs start.

I think we should have a fanpost or something like that that’s a designated area for people looking to get rid of tickets. I know I’ll be buying some single-game seats that may not pan out, and if that’s the case then I’d much rather get them to someone here than some random person on Stubhub.
Things happen for a reason they say, but I say there's a reason things happen.
Thanks for offering but I dont have a babysitter. Else I would be all over it.

Yess sir...
I’ll be at the game. Heres a couple of predictions:
1. At some point during the game Bayless will have a monster dunk. Either on a steal leading to a fast break, or simply taking it to the rack on someone. He will be drinbbling around and realize, " I need to make my highlight for the game.."
2. Outlaw will dominate. enough said.
3. Blazers will win. By a lot.
- Go Blazers!
Here's another addition for your sig :)
Rudy+Roy+Bayless=16
Right?
Let’s keep going…
Oden-Frye+Webster= 16

True
But that’s kind of deceiving.
As you said,
Blazers vs. Kings without Kevin Martin = Blazer massacre.
But to be truthful,
Blazers vs. Kings with a perfectly healthy Kevin Martin = Blazer massacre.
He who laughs last thinks slowest.
No wayyy
Kevin Martin is good but who would we have to be missing in order to be massacred this year? They dont have Artest and he was our biggest thorn .. no way. They would never massacre us even w/ a completely healthy Martin

I meant we massacre them
? am I confused or are you ?
I’m saying whether or not he’s there we kill them. Sixth said BECAUSE they don’t have Kevin Martin, we will kill them. I was simply saying that’s a logical error—we will kill them whether nor not they have K-Mart.
He who laughs last thinks slowest.
i gues I am because I thought you were saying that w/ a healthy Martin the Blazers would GET massacred.

by BlazermaniacAndy on Oct 7, 2008 4:17 PM PDT up reply actions
Ya know... as a side note...
I don’t think the Kings will be that bad.
They won 38 games last year, and while Artest KILLED us last season he was a huge ballhog who was a bad teammate on the court. They lose him, everyone does better.
Kevin Martin is one of the best scorers in the game, and with more shots should be a top 5 scorer. Incredibly efficient.
John Salmons has always done well when he’s gotten real minutes as a King, and Francisco Garcia is a solid, underrated player as well.
Beno Udrih, while maybe overpaid, may also not be overpaid— he played well to end the season and earn the deal, but more remains to be seen to be sure if he is real.
Spencer Hawes has no redeeming qualities and has a real ugly face. Hey, Oden mighta’ had micro, but at least he wasn’t 14 when it happened! I dunno if that is a legitimate bragging point, but it’s all I have to cling to right now.
Geoff Petrie has always been a smart GM, and considering how decent they were last season, I wouldn’t be surprised if the departure of Artest actually helps the team a lot, ala us losing Z-Bo.
We’ll see, and I ain’t gonna put money on it, but they have enough decent pieces to be decent. Probably not playoff caliber decent, and they need a draft or two to return to goodness again, but they won’t be a cellar dwellar by any stretch of the imagination if ya asks me.
Mortimer
Yes, do not underestimate the impact of losing Artest.
It is a great weight lifted off their shoulders.
Kinda like Zach traded to NY…
Koponen - PG of the future. For Italy, that is. Book it.
PLUS that Bibby fellow
Bibby was always one of my least favorite players.
I dislike guys who aren’t good shooters who shoot their team out of games by being immense ballhogs. It’s a miracle Kevin Martin could ever average over 20ppg with ultra ballhogs Bibby and Artest on the team!
If he stays healthy, I predict Kevin Martin averages 27ppg.
But how does his playmaking and defense look this year? He’ll be a top scorer, but can he run a team?
I know Ziller had Martin like 20 spots above Roy in his top 50 ratings, and that’s fine, but I think Roy is a better all-round player that helps a team more. Martin has the talent and work ethic to improve the other areas that a team superstar-leader type needs, though.
Mortimer
Typical Bibby line: 5-16, 4 assists
"Personally, I'd rather give an elephant a prostate exam on Chili Day." --Dave on rooting for the Lakers or Celtics
I'm not convinced about the Artest argument.
For the most part, it will be addition by subtraction for the Kings. But Artest was one of the few guys in the league who absolutely SHUT DOWN B-Roy last year. With Roy running free, nothing will save Sactown.

I meant more, "overall"
Without Artest, we match up with them VERY well.
But team wise, I think they’ll all be happier and do better without ballhogs Artest and Bibby, and will do better than expected.
No Artest means no victories against the Blazers, however.
We match up with them at every single position down the roster, very very well.
Mortimer
Ah.
Yeah, that makes a lot more sense.

I'll be at the game tonight
It’s the first game of my “Roy Package.”
In the elevator at work this morning a lady asked me, “Why are you wearing a bright red shirt and black pants?” I informed her that today is the first day of the preseason for the PTB and I was wearing team colors to support the team. She said to me, “The Blazers? Really? I guess there are some people who like that sort of thing.”
I assured her that there are plenty of us PTB fans out there, and if she still thinks of our team as the Jail-Blazers, she needs to readjust her mindset.
If I was stuck in the elevator w/ her I would have pushed the "red" button and stopped the damn thing
untill she understood just how much the blazers are worth to Portland. What a BI… Ugh.
Sorry you had to go through that.

You should have given her a back handed comment
Like, “You’re not to shabby, for an old bag.” Then yell, “Pritchslap!” As you exit the elevator.
Blazers Edge has an alarmist vision
Yell Pritchslap
As you push her down the empty elevator shaft.
THEN she’ll know the TRUE POWER of the Portland TRAIL BLAZERS!!
What are other good times to yell Pritch slap? For funny, I wanted to just post PRITCH SLAP on the Blog a Bull post about Omar Asik being out 5 months with a knee injury. I swear it woulda’ been funny.

So as a recap
Channel 656 tonight on DirecTv at 7pm. I just had the wife at home check and that channel does not say we don’t get it when clicked. It does show the game tonight……hmmmm
Fingers crossed……….at least I’m going to tomorrow’s game, but i’d LOVE to watch tonight.
Witty Unpredictable Talent and Natural Game
I cant wait for the game im soooooooo stoked
I shamelessly replace my son’s pic w/ a HUGE pic of Batum on my computer.
Also, i started a debate in the lunch room about Greg Oden’s ceiling… awww good times. I cant wait I cant wait I cant wait!

Some guy walked in, bought some stuff, one his way home he needed a place to eat, I reco McCormick’s. he gets to go have a single malt scotch and see’s one of the Blazers (this lunch happened yesterday but he told me today!) but it’s not fair he got to have a drink and see a Blazer in it’s natural habitat, it’s just been eating at me, slowly, like Alzheimer’s slowly eats at your memory, what was I talking about again?…

Dave:
I hate to complain about such a wonderful blog, but I find myself making the same mistake repeatedly and I thought it could be worth discussing. When I’m excited to watch/listen to a Blazers game, I head to Blazersedge and check out the game day thread. When I later forget what time the game is, I usually look for that little post you always put at the top to get that info. This happens about… every game. The information is in other places, I realize that. I even have those other places bookmarked for this reason. But I’d rather be at Blazersedge.
So, here is my humble suggestion: throw a bit of that kind of bookkeeping info at the top of these posts for reference.

It's not going to happen on Direct TV channel 656.
Yeah it lets you record it, but then the recording is a black screen.
That’s what their pregame show did and I’ve seen this happen with other broadcasts that look promising on the guide. It was too good to be true.
Looks like Audio League Pass for me.
On NBA League Pass SAC radio appears to be the only choice

Nice handles, seems confident, very at ease.
Oden needs to learn he can back anyone up that the Kings got.
Put that butt into ‘em and just back into them for less than 5 seconds and you’re at the basket, Odie!
Oden is getting nice position
Gets the entry pass, dribbles but doesn’t back down like he should.
I betcha he’s a bundle of nerves that will smooth out over the game. The early dunk should help, and the FTs.
Pllllleeeeease don't call him Odie
When I was young, my grandma had a blind, deaf, and nearly lame dog named Odie. I really don’t want to jinx Oden.

Oden’s weight will go down as he plays and the “right” weight is determined naturally.

Hello Mrs KP
Great job on raising your son!! I bet he has your aptitude for finding the best draft picks, but got his trade acumen from his dad huh?
The season cannot get here soon enough.
Tentative
I think Oden’s gonna be tentative for a month or so. I’m fine with that. The similarities to a young Diesel are striking, though.
Oden!

Sergio + Rudy = 16
Sergio + Bayless = 16

Wow i am soo happy Sergio is transformed... arche baby
that is misspelled im sure b/c i started a drinking game that dictates a shot every time John McCain said “my friends” IM FADEDED
Sergio =G of the Night. His D still needs work, one thing at a time tho… that shot looks beautiful im soo proud of him. If he has a good year KP is officially psychic. Darn Dave is gonna flag this b/c im not “tempering expectations” …
Is Lamarcuse (the way Batum says it) sick? Why is like 1 for like, 100? jesus H. leave it to LMA.

I was thinking that.
Seemed a little overly optimistic though…anyone know the SBnation record?
Sergio?
If I told you a month ago that sergio rodriguez would be the leading scorer in the first half of this game, what would you think
He's done it before
It ain’t THAT crazy!
I hope his shooting continues nice, like Martell he has had good stretches at times…
His shot definitely looks nicer, though.

That was a weak call on Oden.
Beautiful spin by Oden.
He’ll get more comfortable as we go. He gets nervous before big moments, like a first game.
Did Bayless start the half?
Oden has a ways to go
Especially in getting comfortable…
But I guarantee Oden is a much, much better passer than Howard right now. No joke!

Oden was beastly, Rudy AMAZING, Roy was Roy, LMA started off but caught up, Martell was there with a few niceness, Trout too, Sergio looked great, Joel looks as good as ever, Batum dunked, everyone looks how we dream they would look.
Joel catches and dunks!?!?!
When did he start catching?

Things are getting sloppy...
Time to check out.
About as good as a pre-season game can get!!! :)

It is Ike. But, 1st game and all and EVERYONE will only get better.
I'm with you there
Ike is trying really hard, but it doesn’t seem to be happening for him

Well, maybe
He was never healthy, so we couldn’t be sure what to expect.
I think he’s a Z-Bo type, anfd could be a great backup PF!
Thats the best case scenario for a disappointment
Didn’t expect much from him anyways and we all knon channing will be coming off the bench

but I’m all giddy anyway

I watched a lotta Magic games
Cuz Howard was on my fantasy squadron.
Howard is very dominant, without one single post move. He is just bigger and faster than everyone.
Oden is bigger and will be as fast or faster as he continues to get in shape. He will score easily by just being massive and buff.
This is game #1. I know I am a homer, but just wait.
Even if Brad Miller was in the game
The only difference is Miller getting a few technicals for getting dunked on by Oden and him whining to the refs.
Disagree.
Kings are setting up for a good future.
Their pre-season embodiment is better than their immediate regular season,
if only for the way their future players (especially Garcia and Hawes) get emphasis
in a way they won’t for the 82 games that count.
Their pre-season team should be non-regular-season-relevant GOOD in a Belinelli-summer-league kinda way.
This should not be taken lightly.
If anything, the current Blazers team should be sucking in the pre-season in a playoff-prep sort of function.
Does that make any sense?
I’m betting the true contenders have very average “records” in summer league and pre-season,
but spend those losses preparing for May in some very obtuse (yet relevant) way.
And teams like Sac O’ Mentos should be kicking buttox in the silly season
for the sake of building experience and confidence among their young “prospects”.
They should be beating us NOW, while they can.
They can’t.
Why not? I mean, why not NOW?

Every time Rudy gets the ball he’s making something special happen. Awesome.
Well, think….he’s been passing to his Spanish teammates in a good Euro-league. Now he has an incredible team to pass too….Just making him and everyone else better.

He's doing this with guys he met a couple of weeks ago.
That’s just SICK, regardless of the talent level of those teammates.
I expected the Rudy integration to take a lot longer than THIS.
Unless, of course, he’s not really yet integrated.
If this is how he plays with strangers, what’s it gonna be like
when he and the Blazers get to know each other the way he did in Joventud?

Sacto did not score until Oden left the game?

From the end of the season to the Feb. 28th game, where Dave stated the record was 1425. The highest game day total after that was 718 when we played Golden State in March.

No, Cablinasian is something that Tiger Woods called himself at one point.
It’s caucasian, asian, black… I am pasty white but I thought it was a pretty spiffy and nifty word.
That's okay. If the Rome Cablinasian isn't a Blazer fan

…it’s like a dream come true. Thanks to the Bedgers for posting links to stoogetv.com and justintv.com. I would not have seen how awesome this really was. Everyone looked great, especially Rudy. He’s gonna be great!!!!
this has been a message from: "The People's Alliance to Keep Comment Boards Sucka Free"

I’m glad I got to watch this for sure. Rudy is the bomb, and Greg is going to DOMINATE. He is crazy big out there, wait till he’s in shape!

Thoughts?
First, an amazing game
Second, I can’t count the number of plays Greg affected positively. Either he was being double teamed, or forcing an opponent to change a shot. He played really big tonight.
Third, RUDY! I think he’s having fun, which is huge. Obviously, his talent is there, but going from being THE man in Spain to being some guy in some mid-sized town in the “pacific” northwest of the US could be rough. He seems like he’ll totally embrace it, which is important in the long run.

and sergio....he was passing like a freak.
His defense isn’t such a liability with the new help/cheat scheme and Greg O down low.
He who laughs last thinks slowest.
Spain vs Portland
Think about this, Rudy said when he arrived in PDX that while Spain’s bball fans are loud, there was normally about under 10 thousand fans at a game, so while he was bit, he never played in front of a home crowd like we have here in Portland. Get ready for a 41 game sell out streak of 20,000 fans screaming RUDY, RUDY, RUDY!!!

Wow… wow… and wow…
Just imagine what this team will be like when the team learns to read Rudy’s passes…
Imagine how this team will play when greg is in shape and figures out what to do out there.
We did well, but we have a long ways to go. Defense got sloppy and we left guys to open on the outside. If we hadn’t gotten into their head with some great post defense, they might have made those wide open shots.
The rust was obvious, but the hustle and potential are awesome.

A Kings team without their 2 best players
BUT I think what we’re seeing is simply the realization that our worst nightmares probably won’t come true. Blazers fans tend to think from the bottom up, this game sets the bottom to be far above levels such as “Team literally has no hands”, “Team seems to have no concept of what defense is, choosing to applaud their opponents Slam-Dunk-Competition style instead”, “Team does not contain Brandon Roy”, and “The Knicks.”

My projection:
Beasley and Rudy will be #1 and #2 in ROY voting.
I didn’t understand at all the negative comments about the King’s announcers in this thread. They were extremely knowledgeable about the Blazer team and weren’t at all afraid to give credit to them. Plus, if they weren’t covering this game, none of us would have seen it.
Ya gotta remember they are Kings announcers and are supposed to focus on their team.
Thats - Rudy and Beasley - 1 and 2

Mortimer
Nobody likes Beasley
I would be shocked if he won ROY, especially since I doubt there is enough shots for him on that team. He’d have to have amazing numbers, numbers no one can deny, to win.
I dunno, I felt those announcer guys were pretty UNknowledgeable about the NBA, and it seems like most Kings fans dislike their announcers as well. I definitely don’t mind the home-team focus, since that is what they are supposed to do, but they didn’t seem to be all that “with it” for guys whose career revolves around watching the NBA.
In a game like that, NO ONE couldn’t give credit to the other team. I’m not even looking for a pat on the back from the other team, just people who seem like they have a good understanding of who is who in the NBA.
Comparing Oden to Bowie, DUCKWORTH, are unforgiveable offenses, even if it was just a bad segue to discuss Duck’s passing..
Oden has the love of the media, a team that will be good, and he will only get better. I got easy money on him winning ROY.
Everyone hates Beasley already. If Rudy keeps this up he’ll get plenty of votes, but Oden is the guy on the front page, the opening story on Sportscenter. It’s his award.
Mortimer
Oh common Morty, you were too busy
posting on the game day thread to hear the broadcast evidently.
Unknowledgeable about the NBA?? The color guy, Jerry Reynolds is the Kings director of player personnel for pete sake. He was also general manager of a WNBA team. He was head coach of the Kings for 2 years or so over two different stints. He knows the NBA very well and it seems our Blazers in particular. It showed through in this game and in two that I watched last year where he was announcing during our free League Pass period.
You’re gonna have to start listening instead of typing me thinks.
I think all of the Blazers are relieved to have this game under their belt
Now they can just focus on getting bettter.
Better? How much better can they get?

Bottom line….We have added Greg Oden(The most anticipated big man since Shaq), Rudy Fernandez(That guy who nearly carried Team Spain to Olympic Gold vs. Team USA), and Jerryd Bayless(Who just happened to average 29.8 ppg in the 08 Summer League) To a 41-41 squad from last year. I would say it is time for high expectations from the die hard Blazer fans!
