FINAL: San Antonio Spurs 99, Portland Trail Blazers 83

PrintAfter the loss of Marcus Camby, the Portland Trail Blazers struggled to keep up with the San Antonio Spurs, who pulled away in the fourth to win by 16. Camby, who left the game with an ankle injury, is currently listed as day-to day.
LaMarcus Aldridge had a good scoring night with 29 points, but was limited by foul trouble. Gerald Wallace added a double-double (12 and 12), and Wesley Matthews and Raymond Felton scored in double figures. However, bench scoring was the key to the game, as the San Antonio bench lit up the Blazers.
The "Good Blazers" showed up in the first. Wallace and Felton swiped balls around the perimeter, and what they didn't finish, Aldridge (with 13 points) cleaned up. However, the Blazers turned the ball over 6 times, and the Spurs' hot shooting kept them within 4. Ominous sign.
The second quarter wasn't so kind to Portland. Nic Batum picked up three quick fouls and a goaltend. After a 10-0 Spurs run, the Blazers were suddenly behind by 4. Everything the Spurs shot fell in the hoop, as they shot 73%. Then it somehow worsened. Marcus Camby drove to the hoop, and he landed poorly on his ankle and fell to the ground in pain. The Blazers immediately fell behind by 8, but Matthews heated up to keep them within 3 at halftime.
Both teams start slow in the third, with unforced turnovers and missed shots. A quick Blazer 10-2 run pushed them back to a 5 point lead. However, when Aldridge picked up his fourth foul, the Spurs took advantage, riding Tiago Splitter to a 5 point lead. But Batum and Crawford fight back to tie it by the third quarter buzzer.
But San Antonio's secret weapon arrived in the fourth quarter: Their bench. Within minutes, the Spurs scored 13 consecutive points, and the Blazers looked confused on offense, and deflated overall. They pulled together the energy for one more run, but the Tony Parker helped the Spurs easily fend them off.
Read the box score here, then stay tuned for Dave's recap and any updates on Marcus. The Blazers are right back on the court tomorrow, a 5pm game against Houston. -- Tim

wish batum had better PG skills...thats one way to get him more minutes lol. Thats a terrorizing starting 5.
just package felton+picks or some other vet for another big
OSU '06
GForce Crash Wallace FTW!
isn't that the truth... he seems to have gotten winded after
the first quarter, must have been all those “cup-cakes”
Felton isn't having the best games.
But who the heck would u trade for that would be better?!?!?
Felton is doing fine so far. he’s distributing the ball more than he is scoring cause with the starting line up he doesn’t really need to score.
The problem is on the bench.

Obviously you aren't watching the games
Felton has been pretty bad on both ends of the court so far, interspersed with some good moments here & there
Henne is the greatest and the Dolphins will go 14-2 this year and win the SB
Just a rare public modding note, since this has been coming up by many people in postgame threads...
Using terms like “Obviously you aren’t watching the games” (or similar tone) was explicitly banned by Dave as being non-conducive to conversation because it’s easily construed as a personal attack. Here’s the classic originating post. It’s a bit buried, so it seemed like a good time to bring it up.
And no, nobody’s getting banned for it, despite what was noted in the original post. It was a bad stretch at the time. :)
So now y’all know!
Like I said....
Who would you trade for Felton that is better. Felton is actually playing better D than any point we ever had. Including miller. So that statement there is false. You all gotta remember its only his 11th game as a blazer and he has to run this team and with a new system in place as well.
by Hoi on Jan 13, 2012 8:25 PM PST via mobile up reply actions
felton is a worse shooter than andre
atleast dre could throw lob passes. Felton is a really poor defender. Like, he gets steals because he plays passing lanes so his stats look ok but he is an atrocious pick and roll defender. In a p & r he frequently ends up trailing a pg who bursts by him to create an easy score. So basically felton is a poor defending,poor shooting, undersized pg with good passing skills. I really hope he is just a stopgap for this year, we need a different pg for our future

At some point Nate as our coach should say something about the situation he's put in.
How many years our we going on now with a lack of bigs and backup pg?
#52
having an ex PG for a coach
you’d think we’d have better luck with getting a decent PG rotation
maybe that's his problem. He can't find what he's looking for (cuz he's so picky) and never is willing to give the guys they draft a shot.
I know Nolan isn’t the best out there, but he has 4 years of college, you would think that would give him a little edge, hard to find someone with more experience than that.

Just not happy with the thought that the game was for anyone's taking to only evaporate in a matter of maybe 2 mins. tops.
I suppose it didn’t help once Aldridge got into foul trouble.
there was some
crap calls tonight, but the Blazers just played terrible,,, I thought this season was going to bring better shooters, the 3pt FG in particular, but I guess I was wrong.
TIme to cash in some crap players....
It’s time to cash in on Ewill, armon and Babbitt.
Armon and Babbitt probably has no value…. But I think it’s time to let those guys go to clear room for Another big like Joel. Or some other tall but big body guy.
by Hoi on Jan 13, 2012 7:53 PM PST via mobile reply actions
There enough guards on this team.
We need Batum at the backup SF. You cash in on e will to get a big guy that can score and put pressure on the opposing D.
by Hoi on Jan 13, 2012 7:59 PM PST via mobile up reply actions
why do you keep on saying "cash in"
as if any of those guys have value?
williams would bring in a second round pick in return. at best.
PHILLY!
Batum's value is shot at this point
Someone would take a flier on him with a first round pick, but the time to cash in on him has sailed.
Henne is the greatest and the Dolphins will go 14-2 this year and win the SB
That's all we really need for those guys...
A second rounder so that we would have the roster space to sign a big guy. Purhapse Joel.
by Hoi on Jan 13, 2012 8:29 PM PST via mobile up reply actions
The problem isn't Crawford.
The problem is that there’s no one else on the bench that can score other than Crawford. That’s why he ends up taking more shots that he should.
The guy can ball and take over a game. Tonight he had a bad game. Tonight it proved that our bench is not deep enough. When Batum can’t score or is in foul trouble… That leaves a lot of pressure on Crawford to score.
by Hoi on Jan 13, 2012 8:03 PM PST via mobile up reply actions
Crawford is taking terrible shots early in the clock
He’s been in the league forever and doesn’t know how to find a good shot?
that is absolutely not true
how many times has crawford missed his teammates cutting on the baseline or open on the wings? it’s freaking annoying how much he chucks while ignoring his teammates.
PHILLY!
That may be true
But how many times do those player give him back the ball because they all don’t wanna shoot it.
by Hoi on Jan 13, 2012 8:11 PM PST via mobile up reply actions
they typically don't get it in the first place
unless they have a knack for offensive rebounding
Said it before
and I will say it again, this is exactly how Crawford plays. Take a look:
http://espn.go.com/nba/player/gamelog/_/id/165/year/2011/jamal-crawford
the problem is Crawfor,
he’s good, but when he shoots so early in the shot clock and completely passes up on an open Batum on numerous occasions. I would think that there seems to be a problem. Since this season started and I’ve watched Crawford take the ball up court, I see Batum in the corners waving for the ball. Yet, he looked over and Crawford takes a shot 17 seconds in the shot clock.
If we get rid of Williams
there will be another coach who actually plays him and we’ll be watching nightly highlights of him from afar
San Antonio is good, folks.
Tried to tell y’all that before the season.
And yeah, Memphis beating San Antonio was a fluke.

Honestly, Portland doesn’t interest me one way or the other. For all I care, it could disappear off the map altogether. The world would go on and clocks would keep on ticking.
"I Am Mine"
The West is weak enough for SA to make the WCF
I just don’t think that makes them a truly great team this season. Like almost every team in the West, they have holes, and are in a very precarious position of having a few older and/or injured players who may run out of steam.
I just don’t think SA is magically beating expectations if they get to the WCF. Everyone and their mother have said SAS can reach the WCF if things break their way.
Thanks for reminding us!
Portland looked horrible. But SA looks very vulnerable. To the playoffs, yes. But little else

i don't get the caption
it’s not at all representative of what happened in the game.
blazers definitely wanted it. they (specifically, the guards) played some stupid basketball.
PHILLY!
NOTE TO NATE
Jamal Crawford has no business playing PG. He’s a chucker/heaver/foister 2-guard, and looks to shoot first pass second. He’s always been a below average assist man even at the 2. Please don’t have him back up at PG because the offense will stall.
Crawford is what he is. We all knew he’d shoot us in some games, and shoot us out others. But for the love of baby Jesus, DO NOT PLAY HIM AT THE 1. Break in Nolan Smith if you have to, although think he’s more of a tweener guard than a pure 1.
That is all.
Henne is the greatest and the Dolphins will go 14-2 this year and win the SB
we look like a .500 club
and that’s being generous I don’t see how we win without being able to rely on our guards for outside shots. Matthews has been playing decent but Felton and Crawford are just shooting abysmally.
Bat88m
well i know its still early, and after a bitter loss,
But this is a 6-8 seed team with a early exit in the playoffs.
by 01B5S4 on Jan 13, 2012 7:59 PM PST via mobile reply actions
This team still needs a ton of work. We have guys that abandon the kind of play that works. Aldridge was scoring and then guys
like Crawford throw up contested jumpers. Wesley tries to dribble in traffic and take on 3 defenders. The stupid plays that I see are things that are better left on the practice floor not an NBA game. I still feel like Felton just isn’t doing what he is capable of. He plays some pretty bad defense at times and doesn’t always make the smart play.
I think we’ll get better as the season goes on and the team can string together a few wins. It is times like this that I have a hard time believing this team is going to go anywhere in the playoffs. We need some NBA bigs that can board.
Coaching
How many more years do we have to watch this team stumble around with no set plan. At some point Nate needs to held accountable for not having a winning system.
Well when we played a winning style people said it was boring and predictable. I prefer boring if that is what wins. I don't understand
the fans that overrate teams that get out and run. How has that worked for the Suns? The half court game has won plenty for the Spurs. I prefer boring basketball. I’m ready for Nate to put the leash on guys that think it’s okay to play out of control on the break.
by BRoyInThe4th on Jan 13, 2012 8:15 PM PST up reply actions 1 recs
It was boring and predictable for the last three quarters tonight
And actually for most of our losses this season.
The Spurs took over in the fourth when they used steals to get out on the break for quick buckets.
Nothing about winning is cut-and-dried. Do whatever is best for your personnel to have a chance to win.
Box score says Ray and Jamal only have a turn over apiece
Couldn’t be farther from the truth. Appalling shot selection from both guys and Ray hasn’t really managed to show any ability to consistently run the offense.
I keep hoping Ray will change my mind but the more I watch the more disappointed I am. So far he hasn’t managed to hold a candle to what Dre brought almost every night.
Felton looks like what Armon Johnson hopes to be in 6 to 8 years. Crawford will doom our bench until we get a distributing PG to play beside him.
By the time we get a PG, he'll be gone anyway
This is a makeshift team until a bigger offseason reorg, most likely.
exactly
we have what like 3 or 4 actually players on the books next year?

agreed but still had to make the observation
It is what it is but Dre was so freakin underrated on this team.
I don't know, I think most fans really thought highly of Andre
Look at that ovation when he returned.
many also thought Ray would be a solid improvement
jury is still out but the verdict is getting closer and closer
Andre was a little slow
Entering a regular training camp and got a huge amount of greef for it. Ray is not only out of game Shape (ESP B2B games) but is carrying extra weight which is killing him in this compressed schedule. I’m sorry to be so blunt but I think his game, endurance, and lateral quickness is really suffering from his lack of fitness. That’s not even to mention how below the rim he’s playing right now on his drives.

I glossed over it, but LMA's foul troubles were huge tonight.
It changed the complexion of the game. A non-foul-trouble LMA and a healthy Camby may have led to a very different result.
It was a bad night. I’ll have let the game go by morning. We’ve had SAS’s number for a couple years, they were due.
I agree. The complexion of the game kind of went south once Aldridge had to sit out.
I think Splitter went off after that and the Spurs were energized.
Wish the offense hadn't forgotten about LMA
through the 2nd and some of the 3rd. Really could have been a different game and probably would have saved LMA a couple fouls.
We traded Miller why?
Oh that’s right to get a guard to push the tempo and can shoot off of dump ins to Aldridge.
#52
Not really.
We traded him because he didn’t always seem particularly happy, and was unlikely to stay after this season anyway. Plus you can plan some inevitable decline in there, even for a rock like Andre.
So instead of letting him go for nothing, the Blazers took a chance on a PG in the right age range, that they hoped would gel with the team (status: unknown) and might continue to improve (not looking promising). But worst case is that he walks away at the end of the year.
It’s a transition year for the Blazers. Any contending is a bonus.
Unfortunately
No one bothered to look at Feltons career statistics
Henne is the greatest and the Dolphins will go 14-2 this year and win the SB
I don't think they had ANY better options available
So they went ahead and took the chance, knowing the rental would give them a close look.
Given relative ages
I think trying Ray over Andre was a good gamble. Ray has a higher ceiling and Pdx had the chance to get a relatively young PG.

I don't disagree

We need a center
Not sure whos available but I’d give up Wallace or Nic if needed to land a good one.
It’s a tough call with Nic & Wallace – Nic fits better with Aldrdge & Matthews but Wallace brings so many intangibles. Best if we could keep them both.
We need help at pg – Felton had a good 1st quarter but man after that he’s back to average.
Before the season I thought we were just above average 6-8 seed and that looks like reality.
Aldridge is the man but we need more!

Are imagining some peak version of him
If he somehow came back to Pdx he’d be much less mobile than before and not the D presence he used to be. He basically said last time he played he was conscious of and avoiding injuries, and a huge part if the rehab was to show his kids not to quit in life.
by aces_dad on Jan 14, 2012 1:33 AM PST via mobile up reply actions
If Joel was in peak shape we couldn't afford him
We’re calling for smart Joel that knows the game, some post defense, how to set a pick and how to foul.
Wow I have to give it to Nate, he just said that the team has to play inside out and that the reason the team struggled was because
they went away from Aldridge. This really gives me hope. I think everyone in the game threads has been saying this.
Aldridge was looking close to unstoppable and then the Spurs adjusted by doubling him.
That’s when the trouble began when guys like Felton couldn’t make a jumper to save their life. We need some more creativity when Aldridge gets doubled. Cutters to the hoop perhaps. But then again, our cutters are terrible finishers. Lastly, pick and roll please? Haven’t seen one this season.
You are right Stryder, the Spurs did adjust. Did you see the team then swung the ball and got an open shot? I can remember Wallace
hit an open 3 in the corner because of the double on LMA. I’m am so with you about Felton not making his shots. This guy never missed when he played Portland and now he can’t make open 3’s. That is so frustrating, but I think he will get his shot eventually.

Everyone in here needs to chill!
Most of you guys are throwing the players under the bus, mainly Felton and Crawford.
This is 1 lost to a good HOME team. No one but OKC is good on the road this year. Yeah that’s no excuse…. We would have had a really good chance of winning this game if camby didn’t go out and LMA wasn’t in foul trouble. The front line needs to get bigger and needs to be able to score. I’m sure Thomas will serve well while camby is out, but that makes our bench thinner.
The only team in the west that doesn’t have 4 looses is OKC and clippers but clippers haven’t played enough games to this point. 7-4 is stills good record. You all have to remember that the blazers have played 8 teams that are a playoff team. And yet they are 3 games above .500.

Felton and Crawford are on the team. That's probably not going to change
If you play terrible you get criticized though. Ray and Jamal light it up and people will be singing their praises. That’s just the way things work.
Felton increased his 3-pt shooting percentage again tonight. He's at 17.6% for the season!
And he loves helping the team by shooting more of them. Took 4 tonight. When he misses he makes up for it with more volume. What a plan!
