Just joining in here....
how good would it be to have Hill right now?
See what Howard is doing to us?
That’s what I’m hoping Oden will do to other teams.
No joke.
If Oden is even a 15-15 type of center who scores on garbage points we are going to be truly great.
Giving [Batum] the freedom to go for steals is going to be like giving a redneck six boxes of ammo and a quarter mile of empty Bud cans. - Dave
No, that's for the Magic.
Or at least its the name of their SBN blog.

yeah, what's that about?
seems like a lame site name.
also wasn’t a fan of “green bandwagon”. geez, if i’m a new fan, that’d keep me away.
No way we can duplicate 6-7 shooting from 3-point land in the second half.
Blazers are going to have to find another way to win.
Wherever you go, there you are.

That was the funniest comment I’ve maybe ever read, and I hope it remains the last one on the first half thread. WELL PLAYED.

Not playing Sergio
Is around 9/11 level of awfulness.
That foul on Joel was the holocaust, but, like, worse.
Dwight's grin makes me want to slap it off him.

Want to cheer up? Think about this
If Oden actually settles in and starts playing well, he’ll get all these bad calls in his favor.
That Wade 4 ad is driving me nuts.
See it everywhere

It makes me sad, Wade has to wake up to meanie heads every morning :-(

He made everyone change to a vegan diet and wear tampons even when not on their period.
Roy is more man than aldridge

Haven't we known this for a while tho?
Hardly a revelation this game, although a firm reminder, thats for sure.
I love that crossover
Still led to an outside shot that went doink.
(I’m not even happy with outside shots that go in now.)

I just want someone to ask Nate ONCE
“Did the team shoot outside shots because that’s what you drew up, or did they ignore your game plan and do what they wanted?”
Yeah
cause he tells the team “don’t drive guys, make it hard on yourself!”

This has been one awful third quarter from Portland
I’m surprised it’s so close. Orlando should have pulled away a little.
good
"All our holes," says shooting guard Brandon Roy, a surprise All-Star last year in his second season, "are holes that Greg is going to plug."
i WANT them to be good
I want Bynum vs Oden to be a matchup for the ages, and for Durant to be good… over all, I’ve been more saddened by how Durant has been because he just seems like a more experienced version of last year. Lotsa jumpers, not much else, not the dynamic all-round scorer/player I hoped he’d be.
BACK TO THE GAME!
No, he's been good
But not playing many minutes nor integrated into the offense.
“Disappointed” is too strong of a word… All my Laker friends wonder what is wrong with him and think he’s still hurt.
Even mindless chuckers like Kevin Durant occasionally have big games.
More often than not, however, they hurt their team with inefficiency as high-volume shooters.
All in all, Durant is an overhyped, unathletic Tracy McGrady wannabe with a flat shooting stroke.
Lucky for us
the same refs who are calling touch fouls on zilla, and declining to T up Howard are the same ones keeping Orlando from gaining momentum.

I honestly feel one of the biggest losses over the off season for the Blazers
was James Jones.
But Rudy is like a Rich Man’s James Jones, I love it.
Roy is still out, resting.
Good stuff. When he comes in, he’ll probably be fresh and ready to take it to the bucket.

http://trailblazerscentercourt.blogspot.com/2008/11/greg-oden-back-in-action.html
“The team is scheduled to have a full practice tomorrow in Miami, so it’s possible we’ll know more about Oden’s status after that. It’s possible we’ll get an update pre-game tonight, but my gut tells me that, at the very least, they’d want to run Oden through a whole practice before coming to any conclusions about his status for the rest of the trip.”
There’s an explicit story about him returning to practice tomorrow and deciding from there elsewhere, no luck so far.
Man, I could get seriously get used to games like this.
Quality effort by everyone. I’m not sure if it was our doing or Orlando’s ineptness that made Howard and Turkoglu their only contributors, but it was definitely nice to see the rest of their squad get shut down. BTW anybody noticing that Rudy is rocking +- stats right now? I can’t be sure over the past 7 games, but I feel like he’s averaging excellent +- right now. Roy is really balling right now, I can’t wait for him to match up against the Heat on wed. Battle of clutch vs clutch! (Hopefully he feels ok)
Yep.

Please don't start Oden on Wednesday
I don’t care if his ankle is fully recovered or not. I don’t care if he is now totally injury-proof. We are playing well and we shouldn’t mess with our lineup.
Oden belongs in the second unit. And no more than 20 minutes for Oden.
The perfect is the enemy of the good.
Still about the future
And shoot, we didn’t play THAT well at all. We did what good, talented teams can do and win when playing so-so.
Oden is so important to our team, if he can play he should play.
AS LONG AS HE HAS NO PAIN AND IS HEALTHY, of course.
If that is the case, let him get his sea legs against Blount and Haslem and get his confidence up, not make him feel like a busty reserve.
He’s not a 2nd unit talent, and he should only play if healthy. And if healthy, he is going to be great.

What a fantastic win and start to this road trip!
Did anyone else notice how well the Blazers did keeping their yappers shut with the HORRIBLE refs? Seems like that had to be something they talked about, and it was really tested tonight by some mindblowingly bad calls.
I certainly was not keeping my composure. :)
If we can get LMA and Frye hitting those open jumpers we all know that they should hit, we can really get on a roll.

he's been amazing
he and Rudy Gay are a nice duo. Toss in Marc Gasol and Mike Conley and you’ve got yourself a nice nucleus.
Boomshakalaka
He'll have good scoring games
But I’ll be shocked if he shoots over 40% overall.
He also isn’t as athletic as you’d hope a small SG would be…
I dunno. I think he’ll be a good scorer and seems to try on defense. I don’t see him being more than a volume scorer right now. Beasley is gonna have a few big games too, but overall be shaky like Mayo.
Right now, my money is on Rose— unless Oden is healthy. If healthy and plays most of the rest of the games, he’ll be a force.
But right now, Rose has the media love and good numbers.
Mmmortimer
The best thing in Mayo's favor
Is that McHale drafted and then promptly traded him. GUARANTEED TO BE A STAR AFTER THAT!

OK, but...
Oden’s NBA career has lasted a grand total of about 5 minutes. I’d wait until he gets up to at least oh, say, 20 before saying you’re not impressed.
"We don't back down to nobody." --Joel Przybilla
hmmm
We shall see. I think Beasley will go down in perceived value while durant will go up. Rose will stay steady; I see him as being a long term success — consistently one of the top 3 PGs in the league within three years and then for a long time.
Mayo. Yes indeed likely ROY. I always believed he was the best NBA player of this year’s draft. NBA body with huge skillz and the athleticism to get it done. Plus a very high b’ball IQ. Very fluid and efficient in everything he does. Seriously in a league of his own soon to be.
The perfect is the enemy of the good.
Just finished watching on the DVR
and reading thru some of the 2nd half thread. Great win!!
