Yay
We played a game the way we were supposed to. And it was easy. And there was much rejoicing.
Still on the Rex bandwagon.
Something tells me there will be plenty of rejoicing in the coming month.
5/6 are against losing teams.
I'm not saying, I'm just saying.
Well.
That was fun. Definitely a needed win, a loss here would of been really sad.
I'm not saying, I'm just saying.
Maybe
He started out hot, briefly. Then he was very cold all the way up until garbage time, where he got to bump his stats nicely. I still liked watching him hit, but I’m not sure this was a sign he got his confidence back.
Still on the Rex bandwagon.
I think it's definitely moving in that direction.
His last games have been improving if anything.
wow, 5 days off
feels like the offseason again
please dont sign hedo!!

Last boring game I remember
is when the clippers came to town, just after the trade. They’re always nice to have around.
FIRE NATE!!!

You know the Nate-haters have jumped the shark when a ridiculous comment like mine gets no objection following an ass-kicking.

Hilarious show...
Maybe we should send in a plot story where the guys debate the ability of fans on a blog to influence game results…
I hate Nate too.
If only we could steal Pop.
In Bayless I trust.

See, the sarcasm did the exact opposite of what you intended
It just gets negative focus on Nate on a night when you don’t want it, you wanna enjoy a win.

focus on hating nate

Yeah gotta agree.
Complaints get the night off after wins, just mainly to enjoy the victory.
That counts not only for complaints about Nate, but complaints about complaining about Nate.
*whip-crack*

I hate it when people complain about Nate!
It is so annoying1!!

If you do a "WHERE ARE THE HATERS NOW" thing
You’re just inviting them to tell you why they hate Nate, when otherwise they were being quiet to let everyone enjoy the game.
People who have serious problems with Nate ain’t gonna change their mind after an easy win against a bad team, anyways.

I hate Nate because of that moustache.
In Bayless I trust.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
><> ><> ><> ><> ><> ><> ><> ><> ><> ><> ><> ><>
you are wrong
I have totally changed my mind. I now think Nate will lead this team to a dynasty.
Firmly in favor of making a coaching change at the end of the season.

WHERE ARE THE JARRETT JACK HATERS NOW!
Wearing the black band for Jarrett Jack, Ime Udoka, Fred Jones, Sergio Rodriguez, Channing Frye, Luke Schenscher, Shavlik Randolph, James Jones, Josh McRoberts, Steven Hill, Jarron Collins, Michael Ruffin, Steve Blake and Travis Outlaw. Sacrificed to the unmerciful god of progress.
That is how Nate makes me feel.

and he has 5 fouls and only 1 rebound. Funny stat line for a big guy.
by unblindloyalty on Mar 3, 2010 9:41 PM PST up reply actions
dude he is a specialist. A real NBA 3pointer pro.
its like drafting Oden to be a great paint defender but ends up being great perimeter defender. dude has changed everything he was known for when he became pro at first.
just look at the 4th play by play. he is hitting 28, 27 foot 3s repeatedly.
"shaq and zach randolph have the same trainer... "
best one liner i ever heard.
We're 3 games back of
OKC, SAS and PHO.
One or two of those teams will falter.
Let’s go get 49 wins and a 6/7 seed.

OK and SA have real tough schedules from here on out
by southern oregon on Mar 3, 2010 9:41 PM PST up reply actions
we have to play a little hotter than hot
and OKC and/or PHO a little cooler than hot.
And maybe we get a shot at playing Dallas.

catching the Spurs is very plausible
We’ll need some significant help to catch OKC or PHX.

Not as much against okc if we beat them twice
Yes it will be difficult

true, pull that sweep of our last 2 games agains them and we have a good shot to catch 'em
I don’t give us any more than a 20-25% shot to do that though.

looking at the box score...
and roy had 3 blocks! is that right?!
...and that's the bottom line because nicolas batum said so!
Yes,
Twice he blocked Bayless, and once he blocked Rudy, because they were selfish, and not passing him the ball…
nash has 2 points
and the suns are up by 30

I guess that is good for a Scrub?
On game day, I leave the turkey alone because it is some chemicals in that thing. Nate Mcmillian 11/26/09
*sigh* I guess.. if that is what he is reduced to.

Rudy: “for us, it’s a good game, you know, Indiana is not a good team”

That was fun
Not anything special but a nice comfy win.

yeah a nice breather in the middle of the week
"shaq and zach randolph have the same trainer... "
best one liner i ever heard.
"The Blazers, coming off a 4-1 road trip, have scored more than 100 points in six straight games for the first time since Feb. 4-17, 1998."
O.O
"shaq and zach randolph have the same trainer... "

that's a big stat for us.
We have also been limiting turnovers, and show signs of being able to step it up on D. Combine that with our improved ability to play on the road and we have a lot of the qualities of a competitive playoff team.

A stretch road win in the Mile HIgh City.

The Pacers have
Danny Granger, and well Danny Granger, and that’s about it.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
Well, under his uniform,
Rudy carries a purse. I guess you could call it a European handbag, but whatever. Anyway, he pulls out his purse and starts swinging it at the air, shouting “you brute!” in his thick Catalonian accent. The Indiana guys all had visions of Malice in the Palace and ran the other way. The end.
Rudy hit a three in McRoberts face...
and then decided to pat him down while on defense. Hibbert didn’t like it….Pendergraph didn’t like Hibbert…the end.
Roy had a career-high 3 blocks tonight
Yeah I know I’m 5’11 and could probably get 3 blocks on Indy but still.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
pacers had 18 TOs
were any of them forced?

Yes, all of them....forced passes into the stands... not because of defense...
but because they forced it…
(Actually, Blazers played very good team D tonight.)

Good solid blowout. I would have been pretty freaking dejected had we not won this one comfortably. Good to see we are getting better about trying to put team away.
