We need to get our ju-ju back
Changing up how we do gameday threads was a bad idea Dave. This loss was all your fault!
Never mind poor jumpers and lousy defense, this game is being lost because of BE Gamethreads being all wonky
I like the new threads.
Run a whole lot smoother.

I'm not upset at all with what's happening.
Both teams are playing with more intensity than I’ve ever seen in any playoff contest. The only reason the Rockets are 18 points up is because their shooting hands are on fire. It can’t continue. Also, Yao is exhausting himself, and will begin to fade in the second half.
Keep the faith, baby.
100% is hard to beat.
Let’s hope they the rockets cool off. Come on Blazers! Stay tough!

Classy bunch there.
I fear for the day Paul Allen is no longer the owner of the Blazers.
He needs to reproduce soon so we have an heir in succession.
They're from Texas. We should be grateful that they can read and type...

Oh, come on!
Grungedave is a solid rockets fan, and is pretty decent overall. Most Rockets fans like the Blazers! Take it easy Sabonis!

before you people start the witch trials
check out this little ditty from Wikipedia:
Chinaman is a term that refers to a Chinese man. It was not defined as offensive by older dictionaries. . . . The term has been used without stated offensive intent,36 and has also been used as a self-referential archetype by authors and artists of Asian descent.7
Don’t worry… I forgive you for attacking me. Apologies accepted.
The key quote there:
It was not defined as offensive by older dictionaries.

Houston Falling Down From the Skies Theory
It might alleviate some of the pain but it’s not really working for me when we’re down by this much at half. They could fall from the skies and be just fine. We just need to beat ’em up when they touch ground. And by beat ’em up I mean completely maul them.
Yao may finally be sacking up.
Sick of not getting out of the 1st round.

Defense is the biggest problem tonight
Brooks is getting by Blake at will. Yao can’t miss. They are also hitting the boards forcing the guards to rebound and stop the running game.
One team is just physically stronger and faster than the Blazers in this game. The lack of a second capable playmaker on offense is hurting as well. Blake is gone or going to the bench after this season for sure.

Outlaw and LMA suck. Cant take it inside.
And Oden, once again, is a rookie, so non-stop fast break basketball is like fast-forwarding a song while he's trying to learn the lyrics.
They don't suck...

LMA is getting schooled by Scola on both ends
I fear for the day Paul Allen is no longer the owner of the Blazers.
He needs to reproduce soon so we have an heir in succession.
So Yao goes out and we shoot five straight Jump shots
Done and Done.

But you are right around 40% or so for chance of victory if you are trailing but your minutes left is greater than your deficeit.
But down 24 with 14 minutes to go. Not gonna happen.

Well, This is why everyone talks about Playoff experience
If you don’t call games like this in the regular season, how does Portland know how to play in this atmosphere. NO regular season games was this physical. And we are getting no Playoff love from the refs.
We went like this, he went like that. I say to Hollywood: Where'd he go? Hollywood says: where'd who go?
Landry, Brooks, Scola, Lowry, Wafer - are all first or second year players..
They seem to be doing just fine so far without any playoff experience..
Yeah, when you start out ahead
Yao, Artest, Matumbo can come in and set the tone when they need help.
Who does Ptown Have?

We’d still be down around 10. No one’s playing except Roy.. so this one was our fault.

to be honest i would have rather started the playoffs on the road
so a big loss wouldnt have been a big deal, but i seriously thought the game would be closer than this
I think this is a positive butt kicking
Pritchard, Nate, and the players are figuring it out. The Lakers team with Shaq/Kobe got swept out of the playoffs before. Learn from losing, make the necessary changes, and come back stronger
I fear for the day Paul Allen is no longer the owner of the Blazers.

I Hope
I hope this convinces our management that we need another scorer. we can give LA a couple more years and see if he ever develops into a consistent scorer. But we still need another one. B Roy is a beast, but he has no help……
LA plays tomorrow. They have lots of scorers. Kobe and Pau are great.
