PrintFeels good to be back home. This evening, the Portland Trail Blazers return to the Rose Garden to play the Sacramento Kings (7:10 tip-off). It's been a tough couple weeks for Portland, but it hasn't exactly been a walk in park for the Kings, either. Can Portland feed off the crowd and kick off the back-to-back-to-back stretch with a win?
Injury report: Gerald Wallace (sprained finger) will start tonight.

i ended up getting the Galaxy Nexus
my wife got the iphone 4s
by cavejunctionblazer on Jan 23, 2012 6:06 PM PST up reply actions
Both phones are outstanding
But moving between their interfaces can be an adjustment, if you use each others’ phones.
yeah
we have 2 weeks grace period to test them out and learn. Luckily my kids both have ipods so they have been really helpful with the iphone. Wife absolutely loves her phone.
Nexus, so far so good, had some trouble today playing music on my Nexus but I think I fixed it.
by cavejunctionblazer on Jan 23, 2012 6:17 PM PST up reply actions
Nexus has ICS, that music player should be pretty nice.
You can upload all your music to Google and stream it too through that player.
you. only need 4 keys for this one...

Justa friendly reminder

i remember that now that you say it again
i like it but i will prolly never win. I just give a quik guess. Im sure some folks get hardcore and look at all kinds of stats b4 making their answers. Not me. Just 4 fun!
by cavejunctionblazer on Jan 23, 2012 6:19 PM PST up reply actions
I found I really didn't enjoy it!
I wanted to root for the game, but instead I’d root for whatever I chose in the contest. Same reason I dumped out of fantasy basketball.
that totally makes sense
for me, i just get to caught up in the game to remember what i predicted or what the questions even were, i just check the scores after.

ya i was close one time like top 20 or something last year

I like Sacramento bcuz of Mac Dre
and because I have some good friends down there other than that its just another smog and gangster filled Cali city.
Sticking to the topic, im just not a fan of other teams announcers. I like Mike & Mike.

Yep...
I like our unabashed homers Mike & Mike. There is nothing wrong with hometown announcers pulling for the home team and Rice is just goofy/drunk enough to make me laugh.
#7... GO BLAZERS!!!
We're in the Rose Garden
That means our guards can score efficiently and play some defense right?
ahhh yeah I'm still trying to forget
It’s hard though. I might need to see a therapist or something.
how a good team handles a very very bad team
at least ours was a road game though. Small comfort I guess.
and OKC lost to the Wizards
nice consolation
Whelp. My laptop has turned itself off 3 times since I came into the GDT.
Not looking good.

That is a bummer, Ann - Hang in there!

Im tired of our team not being able to shoot

We're in the bottom 5 for shooting percentage
that’s so sad lol
And still have a winning record

Is the sellout streak over?
But this was not so for Brandon Roy who listened to teammate Nicolas Batum, "You're an All-Star, a 3-time All-Star. Take the ball. They can't stop you. You just have to believe in yourself."

If Blazers can make some shots they can blow these guys out of the gym
The Kings are a hot mess on offense.
If Felton doesn't find his shot, he needs to shipped out.
I’d rather have Ridnour.

I feel worse about Felton shooting the three this year

tyreke is terrible. i don't get how he has not improved in two seasons. the league figured him out last year.
i guess he’s got a poor work ethic.
WOW it might be a slow night when....

Refs have looked off a lot this season for whatever reason
Not just against the Blazers or anything, it’s not specific to us.

if you don't box him out, you end up fouling

would be nice if the Kings would get called for the pushing in the back
and grabbing jerseys
Chris Johnson
has to be thinking, “come on, what’s it gonna take for me to get in the game? aldridge, camby, thomas, rhino, and crash all to be fouled out?”

by heybabydrinkyourmilk on Jan 23, 2012 7:40 PM PST up reply actions
think u responded on the wrong one... but he was spinning around and batum ran while his back was to him
figured u would say it… nah our players are all raciest and prejudiced
maybe
i don’t think wallace is racist or prejudiced. i think he just realizes it’s either him or batum at small forward, and that’s the way he chooses to play it.
by heybabydrinkyourmilk on Jan 23, 2012 7:44 PM PST up reply actions
I think your looking to deep into it... as an athlete you want to win
and coaches watch all these tapes again and again, and if someone was doing that the coaches would notice and bench or trade that player for doing so.

2 on Aldridge, Camby, Thomas, and Rhino
FOUR blazer big guys have two fouls in the first quarter.

Who is this crawford
I could see nate before hte game " Alright Jamal heres the deal… for ever assist you get, i’ll let you shoot 2 shots. For every no look, its 3 shots"
is it too much to expect wallace to try for the block? i just feel like i never see him try to block attempts anymore. i am seriously wondering if i’m just being unrealistic
same with LMA
Blazers medical staff probably banned jumping over a certain height
when you have a guy a few inches taller and about 30 more lbs with a free full speed run to the hoop
all your flat footed, your just gonna foul and get dunked on… im okay with that.
Well, It's nice to see Nolan get some serious burn.
On some nights I hate, hate, Crawford’s game. But it seems like he’s doing a nice job of splitting his pg duties with his shooting guard instincts tonight.

Man you know why i hate that stupid plus minus stat
Batum is at a +7 tied for highest on the team right now, shooting 0-1, 1 turnover and 2 rebounds… stupidest stat ever.
i thought the idea that it was a better indicator over a long span. on a night by night basis, it can be extremely wacky
It means little in small samples
Over the course of multiple games it’s an effective statistic.
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
Guys, is it my confirmation bias, or do our opponents (regardless of who) get far easier baskets than we do?
I mean, as an example, the first few minutes of the Orlando game where any Magic player could waltz into our lane unhindered, while we throw the ball around the perimeter hoping for an open 3 we then proceed to brick?
we get open shots
we just don’t make them often
It seems like Crawford is shooting really well
and he’s 4-7.
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.

That's one of the knocks on Cousins though.
He’ll do that.

Why can't Wallace be like this on the road?
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.

Jimmer was such a silly pick for them.
I hope I can get a bunch of championships, like 15. " - Greg Oden
Jimmer has actually been playing quite well
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.

directionally challenged

Our fowards falling in their familiar patterns again:
Wallace does well at home, while Nico sucks. Go figure.
So long as one is always on
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.

19 point lead?
wow crazy game—-we suck we suck wesuck—-noooo we can PLAY! WOW!
by cavejunctionblazer on Jan 23, 2012 8:10 PM PST reply actions
all the difference from making our offense look like garbage to smooth
we are still only shooting 45% though so atleast if we do that and get a big lead its a good sign
WITH ODEN ON OUR SIDE
Blazers are winning this quarter 32-12
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
Thank you guards!
Finally hitting some shots
My favorite teams are the Blazers and any team that is playing the Lakers.

DeMarcus Cousins
We’ll take him off your hands, Maloofs, to set up the trifecta:
Marcus Camby
LaMarcus Aldridge
DeMarcus Cousins

First in the NBA. At least alphabetically
HOLY CRAP TYREKE!
LET THE LAMONSTER ERA BEGIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He was injured last year
And this year it looks like he hasn’t adjusted to teams guarding him differently than his rookie year.
He's still putting up solid numbers
Except scoring. His FG% is terrible and his assist numbers ought to be higher.
But, as you know, Sacramento does not pass the ball as a rule.
Is your love worth the nausea it could bring?
cousins is a tuff interview
classic drippin sweat everywhere, interrupting
