No, not really!

My parents pack it in, it feels like. They both come from farming families so once they moved out of Portland itself and to the “countryside”, they went crazy.

Goats, rams, alpacas, tons of chickens and ducks… the ducks got ated by eagles and raccoons, rams were too vicious so we sold ’em, goats are super nice, chickens are dumb as rocks.

Plus 6 dogs, I think. And 3 cats now. And a parrot or whatever it is… it talks.

exactly my question

it’s not really fair to say he disappeared when it’s more the fact that the team ignores him

by tblazers on Feb 26, 2010 7:23 PM PST up reply actions  

This is three games in a row they stopped

both NJ and Tor couldn’t stop him in the 3rd, then they stopped going to him and started doing the iso and jumper offense. Late in this game he hasn’t tried to get inside, but in the 3rd he still was and they just forgot him.

I'm far from an expert

and if you asked me to sit down and diagram the Blazers’ offense on a napkin, I couldn’t do it. But I watch a lot of basketball. And when I watch other good teams — the Spurs, the Suns, the Lakers — I see a much more fluid offense than what we run. I think a lot of people can’t necessarily articulate what specific changes we need to make to have our offense be more productive, but this just isn’t getting enough out of all the talent we have.

Inconsistent bench play in a roster that's supposedly "deep"

It seems so obvious that a driving PG and banging, aggressive PF would help at least 10-13 more wins on the season. There are great spot up shooters coming off the bench, but that can only help you so much.

It wouldn’t hurt LaMarcus to work on opening up the 3 point shot to earn that max contract, either.

That's why they almost choked away the game

And every play before that, the coach clearly told Rose: “When they bring the double, pass to Noah, and then Noah passes to the open man when help comes”. That’s called coaching. How come when teams double Roy he never finds the open man? Maybe because all 4 other guys are just standing at the baseline?

by Neama on Feb 26, 2010 7:59 PM PST up reply actions  

those plays where Rose was doubled out top

are a great example. Noah flashed to high post, Rose hits him, then Noah looks for the hi-low pass or the weakside wing. it worked very weel.

Roy gets doubled exactly like that all the time – do we EVER see us run that type of play out of it? No, it’s either Roy dribbling backwards and resetting or hitting LMA or Howard/Camby at the top 3 point line – way too far out to do anything, and the defense just resets.

But my goodness be realistic Chicago was on fire played arguably one of their best seasons of the game and a lot of our people had off games. This is ONE loss in a still very respectable road trip, I guarantee tomorrow if we beat Minny you’ll all be back saying how this team is going to beat the L*kers in the WCF then sweep the Cavs. CALM DOWN.

by Neama on Feb 26, 2010 8:00 PM PST up reply actions  

I have no issue with Roy taking the "game winning shot"...

However, that is only one play. When you run 12 minutes of 1-on-5 ISO with Brandon, you tend to leave everyone else out of the mix; thus causing them to go cold, get out of rhythm, or whatever other cliche you’d like to lose.

Even the Lakers run the Triangle offense and allow Kobe to deviate when he sees fit. We don’ do that, it’s just run a BRoy ISO and hope he makes the right decision, which he has done a poor job of so far this season.

by OmoriumVerum on Feb 26, 2010 8:01 PM PST up reply actions  

Well that would be fine.

If it was actually for 12 minutes. I don’t really feel like debating on the situation, I do think Brandon running these plays right now when he’s not 100% is a mistake.

I'm not saying, I'm just saying.

by RyanRTE on Feb 26, 2010 8:04 PM PST up reply actions  

It's for the majority of the 4th quarter...

I also agree that running these plays for Brandon when he’s not 1005 is a mistake as well. Don’t get me wrong, I can appreciate that Nate is trying to get Brandon’s “mojo” back, but I would feel much more comfortable with his “coaching” if the playoffs weren’t on the line.

Also, you have to take into account the number of minutes LA plays. I’m sure he’s pretty worn out by the end of the game. He’s the only player who consistently plays on the first and second unit.

Everyone disappeared in the fourth because we quit running our offense

To blame Aldridge for that is just flat wrong. Our sets are completely different in the fourth than any other time. No one gets the ball where they are comfortable with it except Roy at the top of the key. No one…..

As long as he doesn't talk to Steve about the whole front-office loyalty thing, it's solid :)

Yeah I agree fun game to watch

 Blazers almost pulled off a win. Chicago was shooting great and got some of the calls. I dont blame the loss on the refs though I didnt like the fragrant on LA. I mean really LA? Cmon. Cmon. Other then that Chicago was hot , Rudy was playing again like the Rudy of this year. I want the old Rudy back please. Defense and scoring were not his forte tonight. Someone said he looked lost out there and I agree. Oh well tommorow is another game and the Blazers play better in a back to back game.

dont be so hard on roy blazer fans

he shouldnt have even had the opportunity to single handedly kill that game for you guys tonight with that not even close sorry 3 point attempt…this one should have been over in regulation! the only thing more sorry than roys brick was the sorry performance by the refs…LMA body slammed rose on that last play in regulation! consider that overtime a gift..so if u wanna blame anyone blame the refs for giving roy the opportunity to make himself look stupid!

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.

OK, that should just about wrap up the goaltending discussion.
