Gameday Open Thread: Pre-Game Version

Here is the beginning of the open thread proceedings for the night.  There will be a new thread every half hour during the game.  Migrate on up as they appear.

The rules for all Gameday Threads:

  • No swearing, even if these refs do suck.
  • No trolling.  Good-natured stuff is OK but don't be a donkey's behind.
  • No posting pictures.  It slows the thread down.

If your thread is slow try turning off auto-updates and avatars in your personal profile.  (You'll have to hit "refresh" to see new comments then.)

Oh...and GO BLAZERS!  (Please?)

--Dave

Oh man,

that’s a good sign for success today!

This game is in the bag.

1. Roy will will it.

2. Artest will deliver it with an out of control performance in response to McGrady’s recent comments.

3. Blazers just can’t lose this game.

With this win the Blazers are favorites again historically number-wise to win the series. Good times. Houston forget about this game. Go home and get ready for more beatings.

NBA TV

I just got home from work, ready to find the Blazers game and hit the record on the ol’ DVR, so that I can watch it AND rewatch it if it warrants it, only to discover… no Blazers game!

Is it because I’m in Boston? No, it’s because the NBA is the NBA.

I'm gonna do something I was hoping to avoid.

I’m gonna watch the local broadcast of the game. I’m convinced that while my ears felt better watching the ESPN broadcast that it may have had a negative effect on the team.

Tonight, I’m gonna watch it with the local guys. Desperate times call for desperate measures, and it’s only right that I sacrifice a small portion of my sanity for the good of the team. Besides, who needs sanity when you have a winning Blazers team?

Of course it’s bad refs, we are talking about the NBA man!

I’m going to shoot hoops before the game, because I made the game too much of a focus of Saturday. It really hurts that it was on my birthday they got tarred and feathered…..

Golly Gee, I sure hope I didn't huwt anybody's feewings.... sniff...sniff....

Different but the same

I’m wearing my Powell’s shirt instead of my Blazers shirt (I always sorta felt my Blazer shirt wasn’t as lucky as it should be. We’ve blown out good teams with it on, but also X-Mas day loss and the Game 1 loss.), got my headband ready and game shorts on. I’ve lived a good, clean life today.

We are winning this game.

Mercury told a dog, a dog whose name could very well be Rocket, that it can go eat an egg and she scared the dog sumthin’ fierce. If Mercury is ready, the Blazers are ready.

the Lakers as much as most people since I’m a relatively new Blazer fan (3 or 4 years). I would say some of the long term fans “hate” the Lakers cause they played many key post-season series with them over the years.

It depends on what Chinese you ask

To the Chinese in Hong Kong and Taiwan, it wasn’t very bright. But looking at the long bloody history of mainland Chinese it actually made sense.

Reading about what happened during the Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution just makes your shake your head. First that mainland China had so many people that it could have 30 million of their own countrymen starve to death and nobody blinks an eye.

i hope

refs dont blow this game…most games yao gets hammered and we get no calls but yao will touch someone and we get a call…all i ask for is a good reffed game…if it has to have bad calls at least be consistant and go both ways…

good luck to all

If we get swept LA and Roy will work their tails off all summer

and we’ll that much better next year!

by trailblazersfan on Apr 21, 2009 6:40 PM PDT up reply actions  

Bandwagon fans probably will be really upset about a sweep

But people who have followed the team for years understand that we have a 5-9 year window that is just opening up right now. This team is already ahead of schedule and winning this series would be icing on the cake. Of course I want to win a championship this year, but I keep the big picture in mind as well.

To be honest...

I’m kinda psyched to see how they rebound after that bad loss. Will set the tone for the series and the next season I think.

Can we replace the Pistons with the Bobcats for the rest of the series?

I don’t want to watch this Pistons team ever again. I didn’t like watching them in 2004 and I don’t like watching them now..

I have a question...!!!

What are the odds that KP and PA go out and bring in even MORE talent to this roster over the summer? I just read an article that it looks likely. I dont know how this could be true though.

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.
