can you learn anything from this kind of game?
I hope I can get a bunch of championships, like 15. " - Greg Oden
How is Oden looking Ben?
Roy, Aldridge, Oden, Rudy, Batum, Outlaw, Webster, Bayless, Blake, Miller, Joel... Holy crap!
It sounded like we played a lot better with Miller running the team
Did you see a big difference Ben?
aaahhhh
heck ya we did!! didnt you listen to any of it???
Sex T.rex, are you pausing for halftime? Or is there something wrong with the stream?

If the Blazers were being strategic and only cared about winning
They would just look to draw fouls.
Question.
Will Sacramento be televising tomorrows game? I remember last year they did. And the announcers were crediting the Blazers
Andre to Roy alley oops = 24-7 = All day every day
I know it's most likely no but I figured I'd ask.
Andre to Roy alley oops = 24-7 = All day every day

Does Brandon look rusty, Ben?
Or is he just going through the motions?
I am still mildly to moderately concerned that he may not have touched a basketball all summer.
Q: Is Greg favoring his knee?
Frye: He favors dunking on your head, that's what he favors.
brandon looks like he’s going 50 percent… doesnt look sharp at all, looked much better in camp scrimmages
So 100% of 2 pts 1 reb and 2 assists is
4pts 2 rebs and 4 assists. Nice.
Andre to Roy alley oops = 24-7 = All day every day
Sweet!

We are talking about books when the Blazers are playing a PRESEASON game?! Unbelievable.

Question of the day: salty snacks or sweet snacks?
The Kings have the best bench I’ve seen. There are easily 14 guys on this team good enough for every bench in the league. Now if we could only get some starters, I’d totally jizz in my pants.
Kings fan
the answer is
yes

Heard you on the MSP this morning Ben.
Roy, Aldridge, Oden, Rudy, Batum, Outlaw, Webster, Bayless, Blake, Miller, Joel... Holy crap!
Open letter to the NBA
We were WRONG WRONG WRONG to believe that the replacement refs wouldn’t be bad. They suck, make a deal.

Stern's mistake is he is blacking out the preseason
so we can’t see the bad refs

Wheels “They are wearing the Kings down with their depth!”
outlaw was facing the basket on that shot attempt by the way, so the ball actually ended up further from the hoop after he shot it than before he shot it, without it hitting another player or the rim or anything
haha so he basically threw it over his shoulder?

"travis just took the worst shot attempt i have ever seen [...] let me pause to explain this [...] travis pump fakes and dribbles to his left, gets in traffic left hand finger rolls the ball backwards over his own head, from like 14 feet out"--Ben in pre-season game 1 vs. SacKings
Thank goodness for the preseason...
this team does not appear to be ready for Houston, if they are struggling this much with the Kings.
He gets the ball on the right side of the court. He beats his man by dribbling left into the key just inside the free throw line. He picks up his dribble and transfers the ball to his left hand looking to shoot. He goes up for what looks like a finger roll from 14 feet, he shoots the finger roll, the ball goes directly backwards over his own head, although he doesn’t react at all like it slipped, and winds up in a defender’s lap before hitting the floor.
Maybe on sportscenter

Frye did pretty good tonight
10 points, 2-4 from 3 point line
they had cameras at the game?
If someone was recording the feed anyways, why weren’t they showing it on TV? So much for saving money…
Oden has his elbow above the rim!
"Either way we have two phenomenal units. I'm excited to play with either one." - Martell Webster
Oden had 18 pts and NONE pof them were from dunks.
Roy, Aldridge, Oden, Rudy, Batum, Outlaw, Webster, Bayless, Blake, Miller, Joel... Holy crap!
That's good he didn't dunk, he usually gets blocked by the rim or loses control of the ball...
He may have learned this during the offseason, and avoidance of this risky behavior for him may have been the secret to his success tonight!
only 5 minutes for Bayless in a preseason game?
he is in for a rough season…lol
he will play more...
I bet he plays a ton the last couple of preseason
Nate just said
more time for Rex tomorrow night, along with Cunn/Howard/Collins
and he wants to see more of Martell and Miller
When reached 39 years of following Portland basketball you have, be as passionate of the Trail Blazers you will not!
If Rex can learn to shoot 37% from 3pt line...and that is an "if"...
I just don’t see why he can’t turn into “Blake, 1.5 Version,” relatively quickly…
I know he doesn’t have vision, but Blake is no virtuoso out there, just “do the right thing, make the easy pass, know what the play is,” type of guy
there's so much more to Blake's game than 3 point shooting
man, I wish the Blazers would hurry up and sign Steve to an extension so I wouldn’t have to read about Blazer fans looking for a way to break up the best PG tandem the team has had in 10+ years…
When reached 39 years of following Portland basketball you have, be as passionate of the Trail Blazers you will not!
Sign Blake for 5 years, the tandem will still be broken up in 2 years...
as Andre Miller will be 34 by the time the playoffs start this year, and 35 by the time they start next year, the year after that…he will be rotting fruit…
And its nothing against Blake, Celtics, Cavs, ect. would all love to have him, its more about the upside I am hoping Bayless has, with his
a.) work ethic
b.) physical attributes…
It is hardly a stretch to think that he could develop into a much greater asset for us than Blake currently is…as much as I like Blake, I’d trade the majority of starting PG’s in the league for him right not.
pass-first PG
that’s just not Jerryd. I still think Bayless could eventually play “off” of Brandon, but Roy seems to like having a PG like Blake alongside him, and that’s the main reason why I don’t see Steve going anywhere. The more that fans see of Andre and Steve this year, the more Rex will fade into the background. Unless there’s an injury, then Nate can break the glass and “release the beast”
When reached 39 years of following Portland basketball you have, be as passionate of the Trail Blazers you will not!
The difference is Steve Blake is an off guard, while Jerryd Bayless is a tiny shooting guard.
Stupid people have stupid ideas.
Have you seen Bayless' guns?

A LOT of people were booing because the Blazers ran out the clock instead of going for 100
By far the worst part of the night. That and hearing bandwagon fans say that they didn’t like the game because it was boring.
Screw 'em
A win is a win. Plus it was a good showing for Marty, Greg and ’Dre (and LMA).

The only fans I dislike more than homers are casual bandwagoners who do stupid stuff like you said.
Stupid people have stupid ideas.
Send them down here for a few games
That will sober them up.
SACTOWN ROYALTY - Try our thick creamy shakes!
I didn't get to listen
9 minutes for Nic??? Really?
Anyone have an explanation for this?
I really hope Nate isn’t going to screw Nic over. I like Martell but I think Nic is better right now and has far more potential.
I suspect Bayless will get more pt as the preseason goes on— Nate probably wanted to play the rotation guys in this one, which is why Nic’s minutes concern me. Someone calm my fears.
three on offensive fouls, frustrating calls.

By that I'm assuming Wheels thought they were fustrating
which could mean they were bad calls or great calls that our homer broadcasters saw as bad calls.
That’s a bit of a damper on things— he’s got to learn to avoid those. Still encouraging overall.
It was Ben's opinion saying they were frustrating
Most of us out of towners couldn’t even listen to most of it.
Love this Team

Yeah-- 3 really nice looking offensive plays from him
and you have to love him drawing fouls and converting the FTs. Encouraging.
Oooooooh yeah baby. He looked hungry, decisive, confident, and most importantly like he was having fun.
I’m not ready to count on him yet; the Sacramento frontline was not intimidating. But this one game is encouraging.

The defensive play was the best one
because of how he handled a quick guy on the perimeter before the block.
As author of Da BOM (Blazer Optimist Manifesto), I hereby certify that we will win 62 games in the regular season. Disagree at your peril.
if Martell plays big minutes at the expense of Rudy and Nic, I'm going to be upset
Not saying this game shows that will be the case, just saying I really hope it isn’t the case.
Just means we are winning more games that way
If the players are asked to buy into the team results maybe the fans too?
I love all three players and they will each have opportunity to win games this year.

its my opinion that playing Martell over Nic and Rudy will lead to fewer wins
I don’t think he’s as talented as they are.
Was at the game tonight. Was fun watching our guys suck it up for a while, shake off the rust, and remember how to play ball.
One thing stuck out in my mind more than anything…anyone who thinks Blake should get more minutes than Andre Miller is crazy, ill-informed, or too Blake sympathetic. I cant remember the last we had a point guard that strikes fear in the heart of a defense and has to be respected.
I don’t care who starts, but Dre better be in there for crunch-time and get the bulk of the minutes. He is a better passer, penetrator, defender, and orchestrator. The ONE thing Blake has over him is shooting ( I guess two things, the second being familiarity, but that’s a moot point already, seeing that Dre outplayed him already after a WEEK AND A HALF OF PRACTICE with this squad ). Miller is a straight up baller, and is going to make the haters warm up to him REAL quick.
Appreciate the read
We will need both players all year. Steve may not have had it tonight but everyone has those nights. Roy must not have looked too great tonight either?
