This makes sence....

Yes Nate has a tough job. Yes, Blake is are starting pg. Yes we signed Marcus(not LA) to a big contract. Yes, TO will never get it. Yes, Brandon Roy cant afford to let Denver stick around, then turn it on. Yes, Greg still looks timid and scared underneath the basket(but is getting better).

I can go on and on.

1- I am soooooo tired of watching Marcus disapear in the second half. This may be that the ball is in Roy's hand more times than not. With that said, I blame Nate. Why dont we mix it up instead of the same 1-4 set everytime. It's too predictable. That was the reason that Roy had to pass it to Greg. G.Karl knew what was coming and the D collapsed forcing Roy to give it to someone else. Nate, set up a play for Martell to throw the D off. Post Marcus up. Do some thing different please!

2- The Spurs, Lakers, Celtics and Magic have the same rotation every night. They dont substitute every two minutes. These coaches allow a group to gain rythym until foul trouble comes into play. Why was our second unti ending the 2nd quarter last night. Why did Roy come in with 19.7 seconds left? It made no sence to me!

3- Is it time to start thinking about R. Adleman coming back to Portland?

What you're saying makes no "SENSE".

It is one game. Nate is still learning with this deep group of players, too. If we are 41-41 this year like Simmons say we will be then maybe it will be time to worry about our head coaching job. I for one am not going to worry yet. Nate will figure it out I am sure. Last night was a tough game with lots of players in foul trouble. You are going to see lots of subs in those types of games ( Yes, even from Rick Adelman ).

So far unanimous disagreement

Actually I have watched all three of the teams you have cited and none are using the rotation from last year. It is too early in the season to see any trend. And those three are in all-in mode. The Blazers still have plenty of growing to do before they have established their championship rotation.

Blazers Broadcasters Mike Barrett and Mike Rice re-enacted NBA referee Scott Foster's controversial goaltending call on Portland Trail Blazers forward LaMarcus Aldridge, who was defending Oklahoma City Thunder All-Star forward Kevin Durant, during this week's edition of Blazers Courtside. Remarkably, no one was injured during the taping of this segment.

OK, that should just about wrap up the goaltending discussion.
