Gameday Open Thread: Blazers vs. Pistons
The end of road trip has arrived. This afternoon, the Portland Trail Blazers visit Detroit to play the Pistons (4:40 tip-off!). Detroit would love to get a home victory, but they've struggled through a rough stretch. Can the Blazers help make it rougher?
Injury report: The Blazers have informed the media that forward Gerald Wallace "has a sprained right middle finger and will not start." Nicolas Batum will start in his place and Wallace will be on the active roster.

I don't always root for an NBA franchise, but when I do, I prefer the Portland Trail Blazers.
Who has the big game tonight? My vote: Aldridge roles again.
"Tommy: Did you hear I finally graduated?
Richard Hayden: Yeah, and just a shade under a decade too. All right. "
that's always a good bet.
I’ll going with Matthews to bust out of his funk

I need to start liking him, lol

Aldridge is a good bet...
…but since Nic is getting the start I’m going to hope it’s #88 with an impact game.
#7... GO BLAZERS!!!
two nights in a row?
that would be turning a corner in his career
Yikes! Gerald apparently hurt a finger in the game last night and people are
deciding now if he’ll play tonight. Gerald wants to play but don’t know if he’ll have the final say.

It should definitely stay for the whole game, and we should continue to keep it until we lose.

He's not coming back this season. I have lost all hope in him so that if he does. I can be happy.
"Tommy: Did you hear I finally graduated?
Richard Hayden: Yeah, and just a shade under a decade too. All right. "
They said they didn't expect him to come back, but are hopeful
So I’ve ruled him out, and it’ll be a nice surprise if he appears.

once again I have to put equal blame on crawford and nate
crawford needs to make better decisions… but why is Nate using him as a PG… he is a SG
I think because as poor as Crawford plays PG
He is a better backup than Nolan Smith. At least that is the most logical explanation to me.

They're doubling Aldridge
And the Blazers aren’t making good plays out of that
I know where I come from, and when you always have in mind where you come from the rest will be easy. I think the rest will be easy.

I don't always root for an NBA franchise, but when I do, I prefer the Portland Trail Blazers.

Nico leading the team in minutes played with 13 atm
There’s a change.

It's either Batum or Babbit today apparently.
Dunno why Wes can’t play the 3.

its been a while since we have looked horrible on offense hasnt it? Almost every game
we go through a horrendous drought that leaves us in a deep hole
WITH ODEN ON OUR SIDE
Felton's been hitting that mid range jumper last couple of games.
If he can be consistent with that, it’ll be huge. Then he just needs to gradually work his way out beyond the arc…
They forced a long three

Basketball Gods are not on our side this quarter

WOW wesley pass to ALDRIDGE
it was a obvious dropoff pass and he took a junk layup
WITH ODEN ON OUR SIDE
were loosing by 13 to the Detroit Pistons
someone needs to tell them that this game counts just as much as the Laker Game
Aldridge only has 1 rebound.
How many did he have in the first half yesterday?
I know where I come from, and when you always have in mind where you come from the rest will be easy. I think the rest will be easy.

I think these refs feel sorry for the Pistons and are trying to help them out.
LET THE LAMONSTER ERA BEGIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
tip for nate:
1) build lead
2) then put in babbitt anyone but babbit
3) when up 30 with 5 mins left, then put in babbit as a victory cigar
4) Watch Babbit singlehandedly blow 25 of those points
5) Put starters back in
6) Never play Babbit again
I know where I come from, and when you always have in mind where you come from the rest will be easy. I think the rest will be easy.
-- M. Rivera
7) Ship Babbitt to Idaho
8) Antione Walker stabs Babbit on team bus

Are we gonna score 10 points the 3rd game of 3?

We can't chalk up this piss poor effort to the second night of a back to back
Pistons are too

Blazers keep using the "tired" excuse in games
Sadly in this season it’ll mean many, many losses.

Thank God.
Perhaps our best player should attempt to score a lot of points.

Felton 7 points 6 assists and 0 TO's on 3/4 FG's... those are the sorts of numbers i like seeing from him
Classic LA "AAAAAAYYYYE!!!!"
during contact.
I don't always root for an NBA franchise, but when I do, I prefer the Portland Trail Blazers.
this defense is disgusting
their offense is horrible and we are making them look amazing, especially Stuckey
DID u see MAtthews not make that obvious entry pass to LMA?
Really? why? is there better offense than LMA postup for us right now?
WITH ODEN ON OUR SIDE
CJ IS IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LET THE LAMONSTER ERA BEGIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You always know when Kurt's angry about a foul call on him
He does his angry mother walk straight to the ref. He honestly walks just as fast as he jogs up the court.
Jesus
16 free throws for the Pistons?
I know where I come from, and when you always have in mind where you come from the rest will be easy. I think the rest will be easy.
-- M. Rivera
Nah. He's getting a physical so that he can be traded to the Mariners
I know where I come from, and when you always have in mind where you come from the rest will be easy. I think the rest will be easy.

Which Jesus is that?
I hope he’s good at RBIs.
Jesus Montero for Michael Pineda trade?
Not following offseason baseball I take it?

dude that was a foul on CJ come on
he totally got his arm hit it wasnt a clean block
by cavejunctionblazer on Jan 21, 2012 5:37 PM PST reply actions
yep
if he would have just gone straight up instead of swiping down on it for the block he would have been fine
by Peteyhasnohead on Jan 21, 2012 5:38 PM PST up reply actions
nice to see the scrubs getting time
just need to win this.
but kind of worse
Gray couldn’t keep up. CJ just has no idea where he is
scrappy

Another Game we have to work hard to get back into
So much for rest

Remember when some thought this might be the best team in the West?
Best team in the West doesn’t lay eggs like this with such alarming regularity.

Whoever said that was hoping to look smart
If the blazers surprised and played well. It backfired though, and now they just look stupid

down 11. Could be worse
Refs will have to even this out in the 4th if it keeps on.
We got the B-team in general.
Pistons are generally being aggressive so they’re getting calls, but a few of the calls have been awful.
Detroit announcers almost unbearable
trying their best to talk up the team.
Agreed. Worst part about NBA League Pass.
For the money we pay we should be able to choose which feed we want. Most of the local announcers league-wide are AWFUL.
Blazers have no type of motion offense, back door cuts, or even getting to the line. If it isn’t posting up Aldridge down low then it’s iso one on one then hoping for the best… Nate just piles up wins from just having talent. Imagine a great coach like Rick Aldeman… Underwhelming team
