Hahaha
I just finished the game! WOOOOOOOOOO I CALLED IT. WHEEL HOUSE BABY. WHEEL HOUSE.
Good lord, hit a FT you fat stupid jerks. But Bayless and Batum came up so big, Dre… man oh man, Dre. We needed him to be Roy and he was. Camby oh my God you missed 2 FTs and a wide open dunk how does that happen!! We could have won so much easier… which is only a good sign, of course. We didn’t luck into this win.
We won by exploiting mismatches, offensive rebounding, and slowing the Suns way down, which always frustrates them and removes most of their offensive firepower.
YESSSS what a win. WOOOOO.

Romance me with that Roy rainbow shot which took flight from way beyond the arc and sailed so high that before it came back down to earth sealing the victory, it kissed the rafters and said "You're mine baby."

They do need more.
And they were sold out of them for most of the season. I wanted the B Roy one, but they didn’t have them for so long, that I just got the standard home B Roy jersey, and then of course the next time I went to the RG, they had printed more. Oh well, “Fernandez” fills up the jersey better…

Not that predicable
Expected LA to crush them after going up big early.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
no way… i expected a low scoring game where LA’s front line was just too dominant to overcome. it will be like that all series imo
But they never really took full control
It hovered on the edge of blowout and close game the entire second half.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
I don't know if we win game two
But I know we’re winning this series if we do.
I don’t think they take one at the RG but they sure don’t take two.

Camby move was one of the best of the year, and Andre has a nice contract, but pursuing Hedo should disqualify him from that.
I'd still rather have Hedo and no injuries than Miller and all the injuries from this season

that was really cool. i’m glad they didn’t call a foul on the first block though. when Batum went down to the other end they didn’t call that either. they really let them play that sequence which was great.
i thought Dre’s was bigger because it was the game winning basket (put us ahead and we never relinquished the lead.)
the blocks were the most entertaining though for sure. especially when he dominated Amundson on that second block. that was awesome.

However, one wonders if there’s something deeper in this match-up that favors Portland. The Blazers won two of three in the regular season, including once without Roy, and now have stolen home-court advantage from the Suns in this playoff series. While it’s still early, the game played out almost exactly like the team’s three regular-season meetings. And as long as their two old guys keep leading the way, the Blazers seem like the team best-poised to break the favorite’s monopoly on the first round.
It ain't rocket science
They do well when scoring high and playing fast. We don’t let anyone do that. They have to play OUR game, and they are not that good at our game.
The series is a long way from over, but there is a reason so many of us wanted PHX. We can beat PHX, dammit.

Now that we are the only underdog succeeding right now, will national media pay more attention to us? or less more likely.

the real problem is that they don’t have any players who really excel at defense. Collins and Dudley are kinda okay on that end. Amare, Nash, Richardson, Frye, Barbosa, and Drageech are offensive guys. Amundson hustles, but isn’t a shot blocker at all.

exactly
he made some ridiculous shots. As good as he plays against the Suns, he’s not gonna hit those shots at that rate. The Suns will continue to do everything to stop Miller and they would be right to expect a dip in his scoring and accuracy. And they aren’t going to shoot 42% every game.

We won't
And they will have a game or games of hot shooting from the outside.
But we keep slowing it down, which almost ruins their offense, and exploiting mismatches, and we can win this. Fo’ real!

Indeed.
It’s also likely that we’re not going to get outrebounded by the Suns in another game, either. Amare will eventually get his, Suns will make some outside shots, but we’ll continue to make a living with defense and second chance points.

Bayless drive probably should have been a no call
Romance me with that Roy rainbow shot which took flight from way beyond the arc and sailed so high that before it came back down to earth sealing the victory, it kissed the rafters and said "You're mine baby."
The Stoudemire block,
where he chased down Bayless and got him right at the backboard from behind – looked pretty clean. Might have just nudged his head as his arm was coming down – I couldn’t tell.

Wasn't that on Dre?
Either way, the Suns got a big call in their favor when Nash stepped on LMA’s foot and fell down and got the moving pick called on LMA. Suns ball, big moment in the game.
I know I’m a homer, but I didn’t notice bad reffing or reffing in our favor. The refs let people play, it seemed like. I love the playoffs.
#52
I’m fairly certain the one I’m thinking of was on Bayless
But now that you mention it, I can sort of see the back of Miller’s head.
I was cool with the refs, but if there would have been another phantom Batum foul I would have yelled CONSPIRACY. He gets a lot of those ones where somebody runs him down and then the foul ends up on him somehow.
Then his (Batum) 3rd foul (I think it was 3rd) I didn’t see him near anybody.

I'm gonna throw out some general stuff not related to any one player
Close out on Phoenix 3 point shooters better. We’re lucky they went cold in the 2nd half.
Keep the Suns off the offensive boards. They got a ton of 2nd chance points.
Ya gotta make your FTs. Nuff said.
Keep doing what you’re doing with the transition D. I think this was aided quite a bit by shot selection. The Blazers were working in the post and limited their 3 point shooting. Long range shots equal long rebounds and easier opportunities to run.
Make Nash their primary scorer instead of setting up everyone else for easy buckets. Nash ended up dribbling out 18 seconds of the shot clock at the 3 point line on a few possessions. More of that! Batum was solid on him.
Expect the Suns to come out hungry in game 2.
Don’t lose your edge just because you stole homecourt. Even if you lose game 2 don’t let the Suns get it easy. We want all the momentum heading back to Portland even if the series is tied.
Ok, actually, I have one thing related to a specific player. Rudy, we need you! This is your time to shine.

I'd like to see Nate use Dante instead of Howard in game 2 just to see how it works
It’s not going to hurt the team and this game 2 is as close to a freebie as you get in the playoffs. I think Dante matches up way better against the energy of Amundsen and the quickness of the Suns. I wish I had a direct line to Nate just so I could tell him that.

seriously
i can’t believe him justifying bargnani’s horrible contract by citing LA’s.
I mean, Maggette averages just one point fewer than Roy. But no one would consider the two comparable.
This is a guy who dished out $100 mil for Turk/Barg, and essentially handcuffed his team.
I like that Colangelo still thinks he at least gets something for Bosh in a sign and trade
Keep that hope alive. The Blazers and Lakers might make you an offer you can’t refuse ;)
Bosh: Convince me fast, or I'm gone to a contender.
"That’s what it comes down to at the end of the day," said Bosh. "I want to play in the post-season. I want to advance. I’ve been playing seven years. It’s time to start thinking about stuff like that."
"Looking at our situation, I think there has to be changes only because we didn’t make the playoffs" Bosh said. "It’s not like we’re building off success."
When asked if Colangelo needs to pitch his star on the future, Bosh replied "Of course. Every GM is going to try and sell their business. That’s what people have to remember, it’s a business.
"I’m in a position where everyone is going to try and sell me their business now."
I still fear the Lakers call with Bynum. But ultimately, this is up to Bosh. If he wants to go to a team that has the cap space like Miami or Chicago and that team doesn’t want to offer anything else or Toronto doesn’t like their offer, he can still go. He doesn’t have to accept a S&T. There are situations where he can earn more money by going that route, but he seems to have reached the point where he wants to get paid, but winning in the playoffs is more important than getting an extra 5 millions over the course of the contract.
Bargnani did get one vote for rookie of the year.
LMA didn’t get any.
I get the paper, so I don't care!
Was it me, or did Nate actually seem a little more flexible with his rotations than in the past?

He’s better able to pick his spots with Miller on the floor. Those two open up lanes for each other because the defense shifts to respect both of them.
When Jerryd was in the game w/o Dre, he had some bad long 2s and other rough possessions, although he did get a couple transition buckets to make up for it.
I gave him credit for that as well
In the first half he was still conservative taking Nic out when he was already the #2 scorer, but in the second half he kept Jerryd and Nico and whatever worked going.
It kinda reminds me of the famous Chris Rock routine
Where he makes fun of people asking for credit on things you are supposed to do. For example people that say, “I take care of my kids”. Well, yeah, you are supposed to!
Here we are giving credit to Nate for staying with what was working. Well, Nate, you are supposed to!

Abbott made a good point in his article: We struggled much more with Amundson in the Suns lineup
Although he doesn’t hit threes like Channing, he disrupts on defense and can still score on plays around the bucket offensively.
When Frye went back in late
I was so happy. He is not good on D. I laughed when Rice called him a top class 3 point shooter.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
He had a three point percentage of .439. He was #6 overall for the whole season.
Pretty sure that qualifies him as top class.
I'm still not totally sold on him
He needs to put together another season close to that before I consider him top class.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely

You may have missed it since you didn’t see the game on KGW but Rice was doing a great job calling out exactly what Phoenix would run the last five minutes of the game.

The San Jose Sharks couldn’t score on Craig Anderson all night. Moments into overtime, they somehow managed to put the puck past their own goalie.
Ryan O’Reilly was credited with a bizarre goal 51 seconds into overtime following an errant pass by defenseman Dan Boyle, giving the Colorado Avalanche a 1-0 victory over San Jose on Sunday night and a 2-1 lead in the Western Conference series.
Anderson was simply splendid in net all night, stopping 51 shots.
Anderson and San Jose’s Evgeni Nabokov were locked in after allowing a combined 11 goals in Game 2 in the Sharks’ overtime victory.
Nabokov didn’t have much a chance on the winner. He was hugging the post when Boyle tried to send the puck around the boards as O’Reilly pursued him. The puck wound up sneaking in between Nabokov and the post.

Seems like some people are counting out the Spurs already. I don’t get that— that was a competitive game at Dallas where Dirk was 12 for 14. If he cools off at all, the Spurs have a good chance.
It went like I expected it to go. Mavs 4-2.
Terry had a bad game except for the dagger 3, Beaubois didn’t play at all, Haywood played mediocre. The Spurs could do a better job stopping Dirk, but he knows them so well now that this will be hard to do. Last year they swarmed him, and that didn’t work either. Kidd had a great second half. Hack-A-Damp didn’t work. If they double team Dirk from here on out, they can force Marion, Kidd, Butler and Terry to beat them. That should win them a game or two, but all in all I think the Mavs have the Spurs figured out.
Dirk will probably not go 12-14 again, so the Spurs have a chance. The series is far from over.

25/10 is enough, with the occasional 35+ game
With Pop and the individual talent of Duncan, Ginobili and Parker it’s of course not over, but it’s going as expected. The Mavs have the better bench, and have upgraded 2 positions compared to last year. And last year, they won.
the Spurs have upgraded a lot more than the Mavs did since last series. They added a better Duncan and Manu, to go with McDyess and an improved Hill.

It looks very much like the same Spurs team to me. Ginobili +1, Parker -1, Duncan equal or +1, bench sucks aside from Blair, Jefferson -1.
Then again I’m so used to seeing them for the last decade, so that feeling is probably mutual. Both teams just know each other very well from the regular season and intense playoff series. I don’t expect it to be all smooth sailing, but I have a very good feeling for this one. There were only about 5 minutes last night when I thought the Mavs could lose the game.
People are always in such a rush to declare the Spurs dead
I think the Mavs will win, but the Spurs are the Spurs.

LaMarcus can learn a lot. Or at least focus on boxing out with Camby doing the shot contesting.
As a good high-low passer, he should also help to get those big man moves going. And he still moves very good for his age, way better than Garnett or TD move at the moment. As long as he gets no major injury and just his occasional habitual sprains and tweaks, he’ll be solid for the next 2 years.

Not to put too much stock in one game
but Rudy’s performance last night underlined all my concerns about his future. It really has nothing to do with missing some 3 pointers. How many NBA 2-guards with Steve Nash defending them dribble the ball a couple times behind the 3 point line, then just pass the ball back to the point guard? Sure, guys like Sefalosha and Afflolo aren’t going to attack, but they are primarily defenders. Rudy can’t fall back on that card.
Does this concern anyone else?
He certainly needs to step it up
I thought he looked like he had no confidence at all. He passed up shots he should take and should make.

He missed four wide open 3s
And then hit one that was actually pretty well contested.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
I've been saying for a while that the catch and shoot 3 is really Rudy's strong point
if he spots up and thinks about it, at least this season, he seems to miss far more often than when he catches it on the break, or just after getting position, and tosses it up.
Cake or Death?
by GiantBlazer on Apr 19, 2010 11:46 AM PDT up reply actions
that's not the point though--I would have the same concerns if he was hitting the 3s
the fact that they put Nash on him and he had no interest in doing anything but shoot 3s kind of makes the idea that Rudy is more than a 3 point shooter suspect.
Honestly, I expect very little from Rudy. It's a lost year for him
I want to see how he looks this coming Winter. That will tell us so much more about his long term.
the fact that they’re able to hide Nash on Rudy is not good for his NBA future. That’s why Bayless-Dre is so rad; they can’t hide Nash.

the recognition was something that really impressed me about Batum's performance
even though driving to the hoop isn’t a really strong part of his game, he realized that JRich and Hill aren’t good defenders and that they don’t have a shotblocker, so he really did try to get to the cup. Sometimes it was more effective than others, but that really stuck with me.
i liked when Rudy did a little dance after Batum hit that corner three late in the 4th.

3 years, 20 mil for camby
with a third year team option. make that frontloaded, and i’ll call it perfect
it’ll be more like ten million per year, I think. That’s what his current production earns, and we’ll be paying a premium to prevent him from testing UFA.

Maybe the market rate will dip this summer, but it doesn’t seem as risky as some signings. Quality player, short contract, etc.
Is that the market rate for old bigs?
I’m cool with it next year, but I imagine a lot of buyers remorse in 2012
That could happen...
but the Blazers needed to come up with a center anyway. Joel won’t be back until mid-season at best, and I don’t think we want them to go into the season with Oden starting and Howard as our back-up C.

Kenny Vance was saying the Tom Penn firing earning Camby about another 8 million. PA had signed off on extending Camby right before Penn was fired. However, when Penn was fired, it delayed the Camby signing. Camby had an awesome past two months, and a bunch of teams came calling, so his price went up.
I get the paper, so I don't care!

Yup. And 2 years 25 million is far above the MLE.

And if this is Howard's last year in the league, I hope the Blazers find a way to keep him in the organziation.
This playoff run would never have happened without him.

We could do with Howard, what the Bucks did with Stackhouse this year.
Keep him around as a locker room/practice figure. And then sign him after the all-star break to give us a boost and insurance body for the second half of the year and play-off run.

If KP finds a way to get us Darren Collison I would be very happy
I pride myself on toughness, I hate to lose, I love guarding big guys even though I’m the smallest guy. It shows a sense of pride.
This group of guys has such good chemistry and they’re so tough I want to fit in right way. Portland is one of those teams that I definitely want to come here. I’ve been looking at this team before I made the decision to come back to UCLA. This is one of the teams I’ve been looking at for a long time. I like their personality, they play together. It’s never one person. Brandon Roy is an exceptionally good player individually but he does anything to help them win the game.
What I want to do is take a little bit more load off Brandon Roy. A point guard’s job is to create for others. Steve Blake does an exceptionally good job at that. I have a tendency for living in the paint the last few years. I want to do that a little bit so Brandon Roy doesn’t have to create so much. Not just create shots for myself but try to get everybody open and involved. But the biggest thing first and foremost before I talk about anything is defense. I pride myself on defense, I’ve been doing that for the last 3 years.

Rather than anger
Which is what Amare showed and what clearly threw him off his game.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
Yup
There are certain players that play better when they are pissed, Roy and Kobe among them but Amare is not one.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
Amar''''e is at his best in the flow of the game
catching and shooting or going to the hoop. When he gets into 1 on 5 situations, his whole team suffers.
Batum did a great job denying the ball when he got switched over, and Camby’s active feet made switching viable even though Nash got his.
But Dre has no problem in those situations
Scored three times 1 on 3. Very Roy-esque
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
yeah
Dre is always able to keep his head up, it seems. Incredible composure in tight spaces. Once Amar’e puts his head down, he never stops to see what’s happening.
Amare is a finisher on offense
Ya can’t run an offense through him; he’ll make the simple pass or take the shot.
But if ya set him up and let him finish, he is obviously incredibly destructive some games because he’s such a beast.
I would love them to keep posting him up and letting him figure it out. He isn’t good at that.

They still will need a Center.

OKC has not quite enough cap space for Bosh. At least not for max.
I think Bosh goes to Chicago or Miami.
Wade IS pretty handsome
For now at least. I’ve felt Wade will look weird as an older man for a while now, Norsk. I feel confident in this belief. His features will age badly because everything on his face will all get big and the proportions won’t look good. In the future… not during his playing days.

I love him, he is better than LMA of course, but his disappearing games are troublesome for him being an allstar (which he DEFINITELY has the talent for… in fact, I think he easily has 20/10 + defense type talent, but he disappears for games at a time on the glass and in the post).

Having him get the ball on the move at the top of the key, after a p+r with Nash, and driving to the rim is terrifying though.
I don't understand how that didn't happen more
didn’t seem like our defense was all that clever. We just switched Camby on to Nash and Batum denied the pass to Amar’e. If that’s the best way to stop the unstoppable, well shoot…
do you think that highly of Gentry or that lowly of Nate?
Nate seems to only get criticism from Blazer fans. every one that talks about the NBA outside Portland, that i’ve heard, thinks Nate is a great coach.

As an in-game X and O’s guy? I think very little of Nate in this department.
People around the league are right to praise Nate for always having his team ready to play, but I don’t pay much attention to what they say. I hear a lot of talk about LA being an allstar level player also.
LA shows glimpses of being an All-star caliber player
If he can make his post moves consistent, he will be in the next few years.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
well you've said david west is better, but not that much better than aldridge
should he have never been an all star?
His first appearance was only because the game was in New Orleans and they had such a great record (without either of those factors, he doesn’t make it).
The 2nd appearance was an absolute joke and a terrible selection.
that's some good analysis
but aldridge could stil put up all star numbers like leafhawk mentioned above, say if we traded him to toronto.
My take is that there are all-stars and then there are ALL-STARS
David West fits into the first category.
Brandon Roy fits into the second. There is a big difference between the two.
he made several serious mistakes
the most severe of which was going away from the Nash+Amare pick and roll which had been the most dangerous weapon in the NBA for three months. Jarron Collins was also a problem.
His man management of Amar’e was poor (can’t let your star get out of a big game like that), although I don’t know there’s much you can do about that.
Depends on the refs, honestly.
Amar’e gets in foul trouble a lot. If the Blazers can get people in position, that could backfire just as badly.
And I’d still rather him get the ball further from the basket. It just seems like the better play.
Yes! Yes! In the face!
His best offense last night
Putbacks.
He shot, what, 3 Fts the entire night.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
I dunno. His post game isn’t particularly impressive. He thrives facing the basket and on the move, particularly in transition. If he posts Camby, Camby can eat him up with his length. He needs space to exploit his quickness and power advantages.
If he gets going again
Send Batum in and tell him to foul him hard.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
That'll work
But Batum’s little slap seemed to throw Amare off his game for sure.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
I agree
I think Amare was shocked that Batum wasn’t backing down. Every time Amare would try to shove Nic around in the key, Batum held his ground, and, what’s more, Batum went right at Amare on the other side of the floor. One of my favorite sequences from that game.
Cake or Death?

I dunno. If Dante has a 3 ball, I'd like to see him try to play the 3 spot in front of Webster as well.
I still think he’s a 4, but can’t hurt to try. Spot minutes at both 3 and 4 and phase out Howard. Webster as trade bait if Dante can play some 3.
"I think he’s been doing some good things. I think he’s been doing some good things. He’s had to play a lot of minutes lately with Blake being out. I think he’s been doing some good things." -Nate McMillan
Webster is very useful long-term because he is as close as we have to a second option for guarding Carmelo and LeBron, the two guys who could very well destroy our title window if we can’t deal with them.
I hope they can find 10-15 minutes for Dante next year. Seems quite possible, even if Camby/Oden just get a “normal” number of injuries (play 60 or so games).

Simmons is sad
A Yankee fan I know e-mailed me David Ortiz’s 2010 stats and called him “Big Pop-up.” I had no comeback. I just want to cry.
Just went into my attic, pushed around 12 boxes of Xmas lights, found the Red Sox panic button, dusted it off & pressed it.
Best 24 hours of news in a long time for Blazerland?
Other than the fact that Marsha’s brother’s sister’s best friend’s cousin said he heard that Paul Allen told KP he can’t sit next to him in the cafeteria?
We won a playoff game. We finally could have 2 guaranteed healthy top Cs and PFs at all time. The rotation stepped up. We have a 2nd Eurocup winner in the pipeline. The coach outcoached another coach.
Yeah one could say so. The only negative was the allegation that PA and KP are not on speaking terms.
It seems weird that
all these contract negotiations goings-on are happening despite a supposedly poisonous environment in the front office…
I was guessing this negotiation was over KP's head
Purely a hunch. But if KP did negotiate this, it means PA doesn’t plan to let him go.
Last night when KGW showed Paul Allen on their broadcast
my friend texted me and said “aww Paul Allen’s lookin cute!” and I said “ZACH PAUL ALLEN, he’s putting KP at risk.”

I presume Batum was practicing the same shot repeatedly
so dougall just moved position to frame the background logo in the shot, standing far enough back to also let both parts be in focus. Probably set his SLR to take multiple shots in a row then published the best one.
It’s nothing too crazy to set up, not to take away from dougall’s skills.

What will the Suns to do contain AM?
Will the Zer’s be able to adjust? How much longer does Nate let Rudy start when Bayless is clearly playing better? Are we in a Rudy experiment or a Bayless experiment and can both experiments be experimented together or at the same time?
I dunno if the Suns can do much to defend ALL of our guards. They might figure out a way to minimize the effectiveness of Dre or Jerryd but their D is porous at best.
I think Nate keeps Rudy out there as a starter just to keep consistency. Whoever is playing better will get minutes though. Rudy/Jerryd/Martell all understand this and are happy to support their team at this point in the season.
Experimenting has to happen. Brandon is out and players will get into foul trouble. I think the Blazers know how to beat the Suns and believe that they can. That might be the most encouraging thing for me.

I think another reason
that Nate will continue to start Rudy is so that the Blazers always have either Miller or Bayless on the floor to put pressure on the Suns guards. If they both start, there will be times when there is no one to drive to the hoop.

good thing Portland can't win a basketball game
but we got some skill in making teams we play lose games… Oh, Barkley Logic.
Cake or Death?
except we totally vindicated Barkley, didn't we?
Our offense in the fourth quarter was like layup-layup-3-pt off penetration-layup-floater-3 pt. of penetration-layup-ridiculous Dre 3 pt.
We beat the suns because we don’t rely on the jumper anymore.
for whatever reason
I still kind of like Barkley, but his constant insults towards the Blazers get pretty annoying. And I do hate that in winning, we essentially made him right.
Cake or Death?
yeah, but we all knew it
Blake at the point was a steady hand for the regular season, and his three point shooting really helped us hum along by creating space for Brandon. But in the playoffs you just need another attacker.
Yeah, Miller is definitely an upgrade over Blake for this team
but Blake’s ability to free up Brandon I think was a huge part of Roy’s development into an All-Star. Maybe this makes me sound stupid, I just think the two of them worked great together. having said this, I don’t miss Blake much, especially with the emergence of Camby
Cake or Death?
I think it's part of Roy's development
Playing with spot up shooters is simpler, but in the end having another attacker takes less pressure off, even if it is more difficult for them to develop chemistry.
Let me correct that

Barkley is right whether or not he's also an idiot.
There have not been a lot of teams that rely on most of their points coming from iso-jumpers who have made it far in the playoffs.

I thought we thoroughly outplayed them
Of course, every game will be different, but any talk about how it was fluky because Amar’e played poorly and they missed a lot of open threes needs to be tempered in two ways:
1) Our gameplan was essentially to stack the middle with extra help vs. Amar’e, deny the pass, and make Nash a scorer out of the P+R. That’s part of the reason Amar’e was bad.
2) They didn’t miss that many threes. Before going into desperation mode (1:28 to go down 7), they were 10/25 (40%). So they hit a bunch of threes at their season clip, and we still were beating them.
Camby on Nash
how awsome is that action?
Some people say that cats are sneaky, evil, and cruel. True, and they have many other fine qualities as well. - Missy Dizick
yep
played it real smart too, didn’t let him get by and orchestrate, let him take the jump shot. Nash got his but didn’t get others involved.
I fully expect this series to go 7 games.
It just feels like one of the series that will go the distance and sap all the energy out of both teams.
Or maybe that’s just indigestion.
Yes! Yes! In the face!

I fully expect this series to go76 games.
7 games probably throws the series to the Suns.

I doubt we sweep them, but just this one win is enough to bring back a lot of bad recent playoff memories. In fact, the Suns already overachieved this year too. Last season after acquiring and then dumping Shaq it looked like they were going nowhere fast and had to blow up the team by trading Amare and/or Nash. With Nash playing remarkably healthy and solid again as well as Kerr finding some little nuggets to round out the rotation, that has been postponed.
Translation: “They are going to be playing a lot tighter than yesterday.”

Too bad all the good matchups are in the Western Conference though.
Team KP
nope.
don’t care. the only intriguing series there is Dal/SA. Nuggets win in 5 (i’d say sweep except i figure the Utah home crowd is good for at least one win). LA wins in 5 or sweeps (and even though I want the Thunder to win, I don’t want to have to watch them). and none of the east coast round 1 series look all that exciting either.

It sucks that the Cavs don't have to try in this series
because, as I’ve mentioned, Bulls are my team in the east, and it’s too bad they’re just gonna get blown out 4 games in a row.
Cake or Death?
yeah. once Lebron has to do special stuff I’ll tune in. and i’ll watch 2nd round series out west. LA-Denver, Dallas-PDX will be good.

I know the last time around went poorly toward the end, but considering what PA has gone through and his immense resources…
are we going into another round of seriously gunning after a title? What are our thoughts on this?
It appears to me that the good teams are way into the tax, so to compete, we’ll have to get up there too.
#52
"We have nothing to lose." - Martell
there are two issues as I see it
1) we fail to stay healthy.
2) we fail to mesh, leading to intense scrutiny of Nate, Brandon, Greg, et al.
If those two things don’t happen, we are better than any Western team this season, and possibly next season. Though I think Houston will be pretty good with a healthy Yao.
#52
"We have nothing to lose." - Martell
the health though
is an argument for pulling out all the stops right away. Brandon is entering what should be his 4-5 most productive years right now, and who know how healthy he and Brandon are going to be for that window. So we have to make sure each of those years maximizes our chances to win it all.
Greg has a better chance of being healthy next year than Yao does (fingers crossed)
I was blinded to that by sick alley-oops and facials

seems like next year will be a big year
(or at least that’s the way PA sees it). Splashing that kind of cash on Camby means we think we can win the title next year. Spend the MLE on a quality player and we arguably have the most talented roster in the league (if healthy).
I think the biggest key is adding another good veteran, either a wing or a combo guard. We’ve seen this year that you can’t replace experience. Any ideas for a good, playoff-seasoned wing? I like Childress, but I’d love a cagy 33 year old.
#52
"We have nothing to lose." - Martell
I can't think of anyone feasible
Josh Howard could probably be had and you could hope for a return to form…
Gilbert Arenas? naaaawwww
Maybe you could pry Stephen Jackson from Charlotte with the right combination of players and picks, but he’s probably not a “culture guy” for KP + co.
Devin Harris is rad and veterany, but he’s a point guard.
Not a ton of options really.
I can't believe DS didn't say Travis Outlaw.
So here I am saying it for him.
I am completely joking, but you he would be serious.

Well, we still need a backup PF
and Travis > Dante

incorrect
Dante is a bench player who fits a nice niche. Outlaw is a 6th man type and an offensive gunner, he’s a poor fit as a backup PF behind Aldridge and a little bit of Camby.

He looks athletic.
I’m not sure if he is actually a good defender although he could become one.
Voulgaris uses an interesting system. Sort of like hot-spots only more detailed and defender specific. Like what happens to Kobe’s hot-spots when he’s being guarded by Battier as apposed to the rest of the league.

Green tries
He just has a bad body for post defense, and isn’t quick enough for most SFs. He’s just stuck in limbo land of defensive positions.
He tries, he’s athletic, he can do team defense, but it just ain’t enough.

No AK47...he's out for the series.
I didn’t watch all of the game closely, but Boozer was good, and Korver hit a big three in the end. Melo had a silly foul at halfcourt with 30 seconds left and fouled out. Billups took an ugly 3 pt running floater to tie it at the buzzer that was no good.

How can anyone hate on that signing?
There are four possible outcomes, all of them positive in some way:
1. Camby plays well, backs up a healthy Oden, championship window opens next year
2. Camby plays well, Oden continues to have injury problems, we still have a defensive anchor with Roy, Batum, LMA, Bayless and Miller making people look silly. Championship window opens next year.
3. Camby shows his age, GO is healthy. Championship window opens next year.
4. Camby falls off, Oden can’t get healthy, we have JPEC (next year) and MCEC (2 years) to find a center.

Haha, I'm whiney
The list—
I feel like I wouldn’t hate Chipotle normally.
Lemonade; might as well drink ocean water for how thirsty it makes me after having a sip.
Fake Boobs (they are a shame)
How did SOAP get on the list? I am a big hand washer and soap it up all day. Did you mean MEN’S COLOGNE? Or the hand soap at the gym that smelled like a Russian man’s cologne and I thought a Russian ghost was in my car driving home?
Sleep
The Thunder (an abomination)
Damon, worst non-rapey Blazer ever
Pickles (but in general, vinegar type thingies)
Appel mentioned beans, which means I bitched about beans before, but I eat beans all the time when in something else. I just hated them as a kid growing up, the texture. But it isn’t a strong hate. Just don’t prefer them.
Phones are the worst. It’s been especially annoying the last few days because my voice is gone because of my cough but I’ve had to do a lot of talking lately, in person and on the phone, and I gotta basically yell when on the phone to make my voice heard and it sucks.
Oh, I hate Andres Nocioni also. He is worthless, both as a basketball player, and likely as a father and man in general.

It made me laugh when I figured out what the smell was
I literally thought an Eastern Euro immigrant had gotten into my car, sat and made everything smell like his cologne, didn’t take anything, and left.
And it was the kind of perfumey hand soap that doesn’t wash off easily. I washed my hands 3 times when I got home and could still smell it.

The James Bond movie franchise has been effectively canceled
They’ve canceled plans for the next movie (“Bond 23”), which was to be released in 2011 or 2012. No further release dates are imminent and production has shut down.
The movie studio that owns the rights to the Bond series, MGM, is in financial distress and is up for sale. Until MGM’s status is resolved and they’re under solid financial ground again, there is not expected to be a revisit into the future of the Bond series. At best, it’s pushed out a number of years.
While they’re not saying so, it makes me wonder if they’ll wait so long that they’ll be forced to reboot again.
ohmygod that's horrible news!

I agree with Wheels
saying that Suns fans and media saying it was a “blip” and “aberration” that we won works for our advantage
Cake or Death?
I only think it matters if that’s what the Suns believe. I think the Suns realize they need to figure out a way to help Amare score more efficiently, and make things a little tougher for Andre, or they are hosed.
Whether they will be able to do that is up for debate, but I don’t think the opinions of the PHX fans and media matter.
And we need to improve too
Our pick and roll D in particular.

they’ve got long range shots, they can penetrate, they’ve got shot blockers, and pretty good defenders, and they’ve got the inevitable NBA love bonus. Oh, yeah, and they’ve got those dudes LeBron James and Shaquille O’Neal; I’ve heard they are pretty good.

This is the 4th time Andre has been on a lower seeded team with a 1-0 series lead, as well as the 3rd year in a row.
He has never won a playoff series.
The other 3 were all real tough matchups— against Orlando last year, Detroit the year before (both were #2 seed) and as a Nugget in 2005 against the Spurs.

Yeah I'm not sure either way what to think.
The talent was limited on some of those teams, and the 2005 Nugget team had a young Carmelo who wasn’t ready for prime time.
I’m not sure if there’s a takeaway from that or not.
True.
Although the Pistons, Spurs, and Magic were all approximately a billion times more talented than the Suns.
They also had more ways to adjust. I’m not sure how the Suns keep Camby off the glass unless they break his arms and I’m not sure how they keep Miller out of the paint, even if they break his arms.

Seth Polack (owner of BSos) Blaming the Refs
and I hate to be that guy blaming the refs but I will say that the Blazers got a lot of breaks…
That moving screen on Amare was a weak call and Bayless set a pick on Barbosa that was both two hands on the chest pushing and he was moving his feet. No call
There was a block on Dudley by Webster that got his arm and not ball. No call. Frye and Amare both had blocks that got ball and maybe a little body. Fouls
Bayless jumped into Amare on a drive and got the call. Camby slapped down on Amares arm and stripped the ball. No call.
Also, the Suns best unit on the floor in the fourth was Dragic, Amare, Dudley, Barbosa or JRich and Amundson. They moved the ball very well and defended. Amare was able to get some clean looks and Dragic ran the pick and roll with Amare to perfection finding a wide open Dudley for a three.
This game really was pretty darn close. No reason to fear the next one. I feel much better after watching that final quarter again

The thing was Amare spent pretty much the whole game looking to be bailed out by the Refs
This led to him playing frustrated and making stupid fouls, as many bad calls that affected the suns, there were a lot that the refs didn’t call the Blazers way, and a lot of no calls that the crowd got upset about, that given a second look ended up being good calls.

That’s weak. Really weak. I feel compelled to point out that there was a lot of bellyaching over the refs in here after game 1, even though we lost by 79.
at least you could make the case that they had fewer personal fouls in the game, at the very least, very least. The fouls were equal until they were intentional at the end of the game.

no, he said something sarcastic like, “but fine, it only matters who scores the most points,” because I was over-simplifying defense. His argument was that the Suns eFG% was better, so they were a better defense. I said, they don’t force turnovers, so it washes out their good eFG%.

It's understandable, there's not much difference between refs and coaches
They both have pre-determined strategies for how a game should go, they both make snap judgments, often without enough (or any) information, and there are very few in the NBA worth a crap.

you didn't like it?
I’m a pretty big Patton Oswalt fan, and a GIants fan, so when I saw that on Netflix instant queue, i had to check it out, and I thought it was okay. The final scene was crazy.
Cake or Death?
i like Patton Oswalt and he was pretty good in it. i just thought it was a lame story. way too hard to believe. i don’t think anything the guy’s reaction is anywhere near realistic. unless he’s mentally unstable. i don’t believe sports is that big a part of anyone’s life. if something like that happens, it puts stuff in perspective really quick. all of that made it too hard to care about the Oswalt’s character.

Ah yeah I agree with that for sure.
I think they kind of gave off hints that he was a bit mentally unstable though. He seemed very emotionally unstable and, if I remember, didn’t he live with his mother, who yelled at him for calling into his sports radio shows? It wasn’t a great film, but Oswalt was okay, and it was a fun movie to watch for distraction purposes while I worked.
Cake or Death?
yeah i guess. to me he just seemed like a loser. but a willing one. not necessarily mentally unstable though. although they seemed to want to say he got that way after he got beat up.
that scene where he got beat up really didn’t sell the injuries he sustained either. after they showed him in the hospital i was like, “wait….that put him in the hospital?”

haha yeah, it wasn't the most well edited/written film
I was thinking the same thing after that, especially because his injuries were supposed to be quite severe.
Cake or Death?
i just told myself he got his head stomped on a couple times after they cut the scene.
the direction was pretty poor. sorta disappointed in the writing as it’s the same guy that wrote The Wrestler, which was really good.

Trying to figure out how many times the Blazers have beaten the Lakers in the playoffs.
I can only remember 1977 and 1992. Both were over in four games; 1977 was a sweep in the WCF and 1992 was a 3-1 win in the first round. Interestingly, the 1992 series was won cinched in Las Vegas.

Man, normally they have scheduled recordings in non-volatile memory and they should survive a power outage
You might want to consider calling your cable company to ask if this is the expected behavior, and if they have a better DVR they can provide you yet.
it still has to be announced as the listing for that time slot
maybe it will come back when the listings do but under scheduled recordings it had nothing. I’ll just reset it tomorrow before I head out, but yeah that would suck if I missed a game because of their shoddy gear.

Every team in the West has holes.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the Lakers took advantage.
But it’s a great year for a sleeper team too.
A couple weeks ago I was convinced the Lakers were losing early. With Bynum back, them drawing OKC, Utah losing Okur and still being competitive with Denver and PHX down a game… things really seem to be shifting in their favor.
I still like the field over LA, but it might not be 2 to 1 for the field like I thought it was.
I hate Utah far more than I could ever hate Denver

I think this Denver/Utah series is going to be extremely important for the WCF...
assuming LA did not win the second round, which would be a big assumption, would the Blazers rather face Denver or Utah?
personally, I’d rather see Utah, as I think we match up better with Camby, and I think Denver just has too many streaky players that more often than not can just turn it on (Billups/Melo/Smith/Lawson)
Not to mention, Utah now has some noticeable holes in it’s lineups, as they were playing 4 random dudes and Millsap at one point.

BROTHERS tells the powerful story of two siblings, thirtysomething Captain Sam Cahill (Tobey Maguire) and younger brother Tommy Cahill (Jake Gyllenhaal), who are polar opposites. A Marine about to embark on his fourth tour of duty, Sam is a steadfast family man married to his high school sweetheart, the aptly named Grace (Natalie Portman), with whom he has two young daughters (Bailee Madison, Taylor Grace Geare). Tommy, his charismatic younger brother, is a drifter just out of jail who’s always gotten by on wit and charm. He slides easily into his role as family provocateur on his first night out of prison, at Sam’s farewell dinner with their parents, Elsie (Mare Winningham) and Hank Cahill (Sam Shepard), a retired Marine.
Shipped out to Afghanistan, Sam is presumed dead when his Black Hawk helicopter is shot down in the mountains. At home in suburbia, the Cahill family suddenly faces a shocking void, and Tommy tries to fill in for his brother by assuming newfound responsibility for himself, Grace, and the children.
But Sam is not dead; he and a fellow soldier have been captured by Taliban fighters. In Afghanistan’s harsh, remote Pamir Mountains, Sam is subjected to traumas that threaten to rob him of his very humanity. At the same time that Sam’s sense of self is being destroyed overseas, Tommy’s self-image is strengthening at home. And in the grief and strangeness of their new lives, Grace and Tommy are naturally drawn together. Their longstanding frostiness dissolves, but both are frightened and ashamed of the mutual attraction that has replaced it.
When Sam unexpectedly returns to the States, a nervous mood settles over the family. Sam, uncharacteristically withdrawn and volatile, grows suspicious of his brother and his wife. Their familiar roles now nearly reversed, Sam and Tommy end up facing the ultimate physical and mental challenge when they confront each other. In the shifting family dynamics, who will dominate? And how will the brothers come to terms with issues of love, loyalty, and manhood—and with the woman caught between them?
