Gameday Open Thread: Blazers vs. Warriors--Pre-Game


The pre-game discussion for tonight's game is now open.  This is an interesting contrast of styles.  What will happen?  Please be respectful of each other, stay mostly on topic, and as announced earlier in the week, posting of OR requests for streaming video links (outside of the legal and official ones the Blazers and the NBA put out) are not allowed at Blazersedge.

I hate watching away games dammit

because everytime home crowd cheers for their team’s made basket i feel like i am being taunted.

I love it when the crowd gets all rawkus to try and screw up a Ptown offensive possesion

and they nail a 3 or get a dunk or something and it becomes instant silence. I think if I were an nba player, I would enjoy silencing a crowd more than igniting one…

I think we should look at it as an audition

For a trade. GS is know to make stupid deals, and they have a couple really good players like Andris Biedrins and Anthony Randolph.

I dunno..you're underestimating their stupidity...

They make dumb trades so it’s completely within their ballpark. Plus, both Ellis and Randolph is disgruntled.

I won't be happy unless we win and....

shoot over 50%
score 30 fastbreak points
hold them to under 70 points
score over 100 points
bench steve for every bad play or missed shot
play bayless 30 minutes
play Rudy 48 minutes

Yup, just take care of business blazers and you won’t have to deal with a grumpy Rudi…

Where's the fun in that?

I much prefer to get a huge lead at the end of the third quarter, then squander it. It makes all the fans happy.

that was amazing and set a NBA record. I say let’s see if Rudy can do it tonight (would help my jersey contest score as well)

Greg Oden

With spaghetti-like Mikki Moore starting at center and Turiaf & Biedrins both injured, Greg Oden needs to have a huge game. The Blazers need to exploit him in the post everytime they can’t run against them. He HAS to get at least 10 FG attempts tonight. If he gets less, Blazers did not do their job regardless of the game’s outcome. Anyways… lets get the W ! Go Blazersssssss!

by Iwvelez on Nov 20, 2009 7:01 PM PST reply actions  

here's what will happen

because the GSW have no defense for Oden they must rely on the ref’s to bail them out by calling cheap fouls on Oden. Expect the refs to oblige.

One of my favorite plays of the year

Simply because Rudy basically told everyone what he was going to do with his hand gesture. He was all “hey Roy, I am going to lob it to you”, and then he did it. Awesome…
