Boy. Anyone up for naming other games they looked this bad during the season?
In LA, In Philly, in NO before CP3 went down…
we're going to run Roy into the ground
unless a point guard steps up.
I would love to watch
Roy, Greg, Joel, Bayless, Travis, and Martell play volleyball. Can you imagine the spikes?

Maybe they should take that into the training plan

Reporter: Four assists tonight too, Travis. You're starting to shed that idea that you're just a shooter. You're starting to pass the ball more too...
Travis: (Deadpans) Aw, I just got tired..
ruffin from ruffin leaves ruffin
you gotta have somethin…
You missed a good starting 2 minutes
Then the bottom fell out. They basically looked scared and just kept turning the ball over. At the other end… layup, three pointer, layup, three pointer.

Sergio needs to switch back to his guy. Can't stay on the big
that’s 2 straight possessions he is unwilling to go back to the guard. Not a good idea to leave Oden on the smaller guards.
It's like we forgot
what we did to beat them in portland. Switching on all picks is bad vs san antonio.
Things happen for a reason they say, but I say there's a reason things happen.
it's why I like Bayless more than Sergio
at least Bayless tries to fight through picks and goes back to his man…
I'm not that upset
I expected the Blazers to not play well and down double digits on the road. I’ll be shocked if this game becomes competitive.
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.
we had 5 straight excellent road games (Mem, Indy, Cle, Mil, OKC)
now followed by 3 bad ones. It was too good to be true I guess.
We’re too talented a team for this to happen in such a crucial game though.
Blazers are not competitive on the road against the Top 9 West
They are always trying to claw their way back into the game after down double digits by the 3rd quarter.

Telling moment
The ball was loose, and the Blazers just stared at it until the shot clock buzzer went off.
This game is practice
This team needs to play games on the road against good teams, because the playoffs is full of those. If we learn something from tonight to prepare our future selves, then this is okay.
But the guys need to pay close attention. Nothing to lose now. Learn how to play better. SAS are good teachers.

Blazer Fan
here's my tip of the day for Coach N8 Mc1000000
instead of a 2-3 zone, since we are bad at rotating…go with a 3-2, 3 on the perimeter…2 on the low post keys.
this works when you have bad pick and roll defense and two bigs you can funnel people to.
if it wasn't for food, baby-making, and Blazers playoff tickets, i wouldn't be working
too slow to man up against TP
if it wasn't for food, baby-making, and Blazers playoff tickets, i wouldn't be working
Nah, I like the pageantry of getting tossed.

This game could be a 30 point loss. But even if it was...
…we’d completely forget it, if Portland made it into the second round.
This is just a reminder for them what REAL pressure is.
Toss Ruffin in there to Ruff someone up.
"Every time Troutlaw touches the ball, I pop an anti-anxiety pill."
lol
“and Michael Ruffin has just slapped Tony Parker in the face… I don’t know what to say.”
PLAYOFFS... sounds good, don't it?
When everyone is in sync, the defense is good.
It only takes 1 guy to screw up everything. I’m not saying any guy in particular, just a general thought.
"They've gotten back into the game"
Have I missed something? It’s 15 still.
Let’s get it to single digits by halftime.
yeah, odd comment...

LMA: 35 points, 18 rebounds against "OKC." Beaste!
so question:
who was guarding him?
Things happen for a reason they say, but I say there's a reason things happen.
We should play both Przy and Oden
There is 0 chance that they both pick up a foul on the same call. Right?

Hmm Greg/Roy

Roy/Oden pick and rolls alll day
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.
Anyone watching the feed that shows the stuff behind the scenes?
Poppovich is talking to a ref who tries to walk away. He grabs the pocket on the back of the ref’s pants…

Gotta keep this up.
It’s not what I wanted but I think you can blame the slow start on trying to figure out the best match ups and playmaking and of course defense.
Oden should NEVER
be isolated on tony parker at the top of the key
Things happen for a reason they say, but I say there's a reason things happen.
got lucky there.
normally thats a foul on Greg.

Nobody in Spurs current lineup can handle him inside.

I think they'll try to go back to him in the 2nd half
Things happen for a reason they say, but I say there's a reason things happen.
or watch him continue to assert himself
and the refs give him some respect
PLAYOFFS... sounds good, don't it?
Nate is using 4th quarter Roy offense early to get back in the game

be nice to get the lead to single digits by HT

vanillathrillagorillaprzybilla
lets see some
Roy LMA Oden 3 man game
they almost never run LMA and Oden plays
I hope I can get a bunch of championships, like 15. " - Greg Oden
the one they run
is where LMA sets a back pick for oden who comes across the lane and rudy hits him low. We’ve seen it at least once in the last 4-5 games
Things happen for a reason they say, but I say there's a reason things happen.
or the one where they put LMA at the elbow and put Oden in the low post
that one is pretty effective
hahaha

Trout's got to take Duncan there.

he needs a little elf on his shoulder to yell out shoot or drive.

Hamilton?

He's good.
He may not have the all-around game of a Wade/Bryant/Johnson, but his 2-point off-ball motion and shooting is excellent.

it didn’t really seem like anything spectacular. I Hardly noticed the score til the end. We just creeped up on them. I bet fans looked up at the half and thaought, “WTF”?
