Crazy game
Seems like it’s taking forever.
nima told me to tell you to please stop using "Book it.", "FTW", "Epic" & "Fail".
We deserve to win every game, haven’t you read all the articles about our great chemistry?

by BlazersOrBust on Feb 2, 2009 6:40 PM PST up reply actions
I, too, would do that.
I’d rather it be Kirk Hinrich and Cedric Simmons for Raef LaFrentz and Shavlik Randolph, though.
yeah that would be better
but I feel like Chicago wouldn’t dump Hinrich just for cap space. And Rudy/Roy/Hinrich is an excellent three-guard rotation, so I wouldn’t hate losing Rex.

Posted before the Blazer comeback
and Bayless’ 19 points. The kid is coming on big time and will be a much better player than Hinrich.
Our great young guys will mature before our eyes and then contend for championships as long as KP can keep them together.

the NBATV announcers are intimating that Rudy is still ticked about his loss to Team USA and is fouling Paul for it… and LMA shoots jump shots because he is afraid to make contact
I heart taxes.
The only one I agree with is the LaMarcus Aldridge comment.
Brandon Roy obviously deserves to be a NBA All-Star, while the Rudy Fernandez remark is conjecture.
All-stars dont let their teams get blown out.
Remove Roy from the team.

Why
do the guys play their dumbest ball against the Hornets? I am tired of losing to them.
West picks LMA apart.
Why McMillan when you play a great 3-point shooting team do you allow the guys to sag off into the lane? I like how when asked about the Blazers being last in the league in defending the 3, Nate replies by saying, “guys just make seem to make shots on us.” <—— fishy.
We also dont seem to get any calls against these guys.
"Both Anthony Carter and Jameer Nelson were downright jubilant in the Magic locker room postgame. Carter said to no one in particular, "Brandon Roy, that man is unstoppable, it's like he's playing NBA Live" and Nelson was cracking on his teammates for not being able to guard Brandon. The kinds of jokes you can make when you win."
Everytime we do something good..
stupid foul or turnover.

well i am still watchign the game
on delay and now i accidentally saw who won. that sucks. well the reason i got on.
are any of you getting the hornets feed.
i have a new hated team. They know nothing about us, they talk trash on all our players, and i have no idea where they get their information from. none.
i dont want to watch with the sound off but im gonna have to. im not even to the end of Q1 yet, but im at my wits end.
recap:
oden sucks and is clumsy,
everyone on the blazers and coaches agree lamarcus is SOFT in capital letters
chris paul owns us
we are turnover prone
pryzbilla got beat up by chandler
michael holton (yea he sucks i know) works for the Lakers
batum cant score and since he hit some threes this must be his best game

I have a question
If player X can’t grab the rebound but is able to tip it to another player on his own team, and that other player does grab the rebound, does player X get credit for the rebound, or does the other player?
Consistency is the hobgoblin of small minds.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
Credit goes to other player who pulls it down
by Ireallyliketheblazers on Feb 2, 2009 7:10 PM PST up reply actions
seems unfair in some situations
like when the tip is a controlled tip or a one-touch pass.
Consistency is the hobgoblin of small minds.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
if it is controlled then they get the board.
see Sergio’s touch pass to oden as an example.
"It's like, 'Urrrrrrgh!'" Rodriguez says, his cupped hands turning into fists. "It is a good feeling. Good feeling."
ok thanks for the information
I guess sometimes it’s a judgment call for the scorers to decide whether a tip/touch pass counts as a rebound or not.

Outlaw ....."dynamite off the bench" announcers.
Travis can be mighty handy resouce off the bench.. who typically feeds, rather than chokes, on critical plays. Wait till the playoffs.
well, I am thinking his penchant for clutch play could be
of greater than average value in a playoff series, where one game can well make the difference in continuing or going home. Travis “going off” (in a good way) can make the difference in a critical game. He gives us a potentially crucial additional option on offense, which sure helps when you need points, as well as stops. I think it’s a real possibility, and I’m looking forward to it. There is no question that I like him on the team, and want to keep him.

Travis has his challenges
But his talent level is ungodly. And he can’t choke. It is like he plays completely unconscious at all times. That is why “Travis giveth and Travis taketh away.”
Travis will win many a playoff game by creating the gap we need to close out the game.
Imagine if he could get his athletic gifts behind an improved defense!
Value never higher

Outright theivery.
We had no business winning this game. I guess it’s easy to see how critical Chris Paul is to New Orleans.
I hope Chris recovers quickly, and not just because he’s on my fantasy team…
Write-in Rudy for All-Star 2009!
I feel bad for him going down
But the Blazers shoot 14-21… New Orleans probably would’ve won, but not by much.
Why don't we deserve it?
Our starting PG and starting SF are both out, our center is 80% coming off microfracture surgery and a year off, our all-star SG is having to find other ways to contribute, and we bury them in crunch time to win by eight.
Scoreboard, baby!
Because PTB was predicted by most "in the know" peeps
to win 40-45 games this season, and we are currently on track to win 50-55 games this season. PTB’s roster is too young, haven’t figured out how to play defense consistantly, etc. That, my friend, is not fair, hence, we are undeserving when Outlaw goes unconcious in the 4th or Bayless takes over a game when the other team’s allstar has to sit out a quarter.
"The match in Los Angeles is a good opportunity to begin to demonstrate that we want to make war." Rudy Fernández (translated)
it goes without saying
Best win of the season. it took a couple of rookies, an overlooked Aldridge, an apathetic Brandon, a foul plagued Greg and some hot shooting by Travis to make this happen. 1st 3 quarters were the worst of the year, 4th quarter was the best.

I think this is the night we can officially say the Jail Blazers returned because we STOLE this game!
It should be a felony.
This is what I posted at "At The Hive"
I signed up just to post this:
THE HORNETS HAVE NO DEPTH.
How long is it going to take for George Shin to realize this? It’s pathetic. It’s sad. For two years, the lack of bench production has been a problem. What was done in the post season to remedy this problem? Posey can’t do everything by himself.
The Blazers did not rally for a win. What they did was not impressive. It is sad to see a team fall apart like that. And what does management do about it? Nothing.
This is not a slam against your team. I truly believe that any team can beat the Hornets without Chris Paul. The Trailblazers got extremely lucky.

Your team really does need a bench, but you guys don’t have any assets to make that happen.
That was a late Christmas present
Nice that we took advantage of the Paul injury. Didn’t like how we came out soft and played probably our worst 2 and a half quarters of the year. And on top of that I had to listen to the worst announcers I have ever in my life heard. They couldn’t get names right, made gross generalizations about the Blazers and were woefully unprepared to discuss this game. And they thought they were funny. At 70-50 I seriously wanted to throw the first thing available through my TV.
But then our bench came through. Bayless, Trout, Rudy and Joel were fantastic with a little Aldridge thrown in.
I didn’t like Brandon’s mental approach to the game at all tonight. He harped on the refs, hung his head and basically gave up. Even in the fourth he only had one drive to the hoop. At this point he needs to do more from purely a mental perspective when things aren’t going his way. He needs to rise above it.
But I will now go to bed happy. A win is a win. Let’s beat Dallas on Wednesday with a strong showing from start to finish.

Chris Paul is the Hornets. Brandon Roy wasn’t all that good this game, and the Trailblazers still beat us. Chris Paul is a lot more important to his team than Brandon Roy to his. He was invisible for most of the game.

No, I never made that claim. Roy alone is not enough to carry the Trailblazers. Obviously, the Trailblazers beat a team with no play making ability.
Based on what I saw tonight,
if MVP truly is “most valuable player to his team,” then Chris Paul is MVP hands down. That was shocking, the way the Hornets just laid down when he left. Yes, that was a gift win, but the Blazers still had to step up and take it. I’m going to consider this game the one that cancels out the one we lost to Orlando on Hedo Turkeyglue’s banked-in 3. Or losing to the Clips when Steve Blake missed 4 out of 5 FTs in the last 20 secs. of regulation when he only had to make 2 of 5.

We had our all star guard out the whole game and lost.
You lost your all star guard after three quarters building a 17pt lead and lost.
In the season series, Roy has played 12 quarters, Paul played almost 15.
So if you actually look at the facts, a good case can be made that you guys are ahead in the “luck” category, in that respect.
When Roy and Paul both play, the teams are actually pretty evenly matched.
Brandon Roy isn’t your entire offense. He isn’t that big of a factor—which is a compliment to you. In all honesty, you would not win a series against the Hornets. Tonight was a one time event. Your team just happened to be the ones lucky enough to attend.
can you see the future or predict 7 game series?
Isn’t it fair to say that a Portland-New Orleans series would be entertaining, hard fought, close, and could go either way.
Yes, I’d give the Hornet the edge in that series right now. But it’s hardly a lock by any strecth of the imagination.
Rule #1 of nitpicking is to get it right.
Roy is not a big factory in our offense guys
We will never win a playoff series. Might as well rebuild.

I agree and disagree
Brandon Roy isn’t our entire offense, true.
But he is a HUGE factor for us. But since he isn’t our entire offense, we can have nights where others step up big for us, like tonight, or when we beat Boston without him (thanks in large part to Steve Blake, who also didn’t play this game)
In all honesty, I think the Hornets would win a playoff series. I think a lot would depend on home court, but the Hornes have playoff experience, and have a much better defense.
But also, in all honesty, the teams are pretty evenly matched right now.
And, if tonight was a one time event, then when you guys won in the Rose Garden, it was a one time event, with Brandon out. So was the time we beat you guys in the Rose Garden, with Chris Paul. In fact, if tonight was a one time event, then one time events happen all the time.
*not Hornes, Hornets
That MIGHT have been a freudian slip
PTB's are young and on a learning / improvment curve
NOH has young CP3, and a bunch of old guys…
I heard today someone with some NBA knowledge (Dwight Jaynes), characterize PTB ~ 1 year behind NOH on the improvement curve. That sounds about right to me. However, as NOH experienced tonight, PTB has incredible depth, albeit very young….anyway something to ponder.
Maybe you’re right, and maybe a healthy PTB wouldn’t win a playoff series vs. a healthy PTB this season…I wouldn’t get very cocky about that though. Only Blazer homers were even predicting PTB to win 50-55 games this season…and over half way through with the PTB’s tough part of the schedule behind them, they are on track to do just that.
Oh yeah, we got Outlaw ;-)

I love how Oden and Roy dominated doing nothing that game and we still won
If we can beat the Hornets without Paul and with two of the big three bagging butt, then that means we have a good deep team. I think.
nima told me to tell you to please stop using "Book it.", "FTW", "Epic" & "Fail".
Portland has a team. New Orleans has Chris Paul. Without Paul, NO loses.
"Aneurysm".
When Outlaw wins a game on a last-second shot, it’s called an "annthefaneurysm". QualityPie
