PrintReady for another game? Tonight, Oklahoma City arrives in town to play the Portland Trail Blazers (7:10 tip-off). Both teams have enjoyed a day off, thanks to the NBA's limited schedule yesterday. This is one of those games I'm not very excited about, but would enjoy a surprise. Can the Blazers continue their home dominance?
Injury Report: Blazers Radio producer Rich Patterson confirms that Raymond Felton (ankle) is not playing tonight, and Jamal Crawford will start in his place. For OKC, Thabo Sefolosha is inactive due to a foot injury, and Daequan Cook will start in his place.

And, of course, have fun. Go Blazers! -- Tim

Think Armon will get the minutes over Nolan?
I hope so. Nolan’s been awful thus far.

Elliot
Better get minutes before armon. His half a finger is holding him back. Hahaha get it?!? but all bad puns aside elliot can atleast play a little like matthews and crawford. Ball control, 3 point ability and drives to the basket

I had low expectations for Smith.
All I expected from him was to show that he can play a little PG at the NBA level—he can’t.
Armon isn’t very good, but he’s a step up from Smith.
Doers & Makers > Movers & Shakers
ESPN/TNT dropped the ball on this one.

It probably won't be that good of a game anyway.
I was hoping to watch Atlanta/Miami. They always duke it out in overtime.
Woah, not that good of a game????? How so???
LET THE LAMONSTER ERA BEGIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wait! Is this a reverse jinx???

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

It has been a long day for me as well - All Mondays are like that - but this is a Blazer game in the RG!!!!!!!
How about some enthusiasm???
GO BLAZERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LET THE LAMONSTER ERA BEGIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm not always a fountain of optimism :)
Sometimes the Blazers win, and it’s a nice surprise. This would be one of those nights for me… this is a very tough game.
Yeah, I know...If your expectations are high and the win doesn't happen then you are bummed out.
If your expectations are low and they do win – WOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LET THE LAMONSTER ERA BEGIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that heightens ARRRRRRGGGH chances.
(pirate chances)
I don't always root for an NBA franchise, but when I do, I prefer the Portland Trail Blazers.
If Orlando would get it in gear we could have a chance at an epic night
where beating OKC would be added to losses by Clips, Spurs, Nugs and Jazz.
Ooooo!!!!! I like the way you think!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOOOOO BLAZERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LET THE LAMONSTER ERA BEGIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HI ANN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-)
LET THE LAMONSTER ERA BEGIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hard to know what to expect tonight
We look like a very good team at home that should handle this. On the other hand, how could a team capable of handling this game suck so incredibly bad on the road?
it get's even more difficult to get a beat on this game with Crawford
playing at point and how that will effect our rotations
by Peteyhasnohead on Feb 6, 2012 6:31 PM PST up reply actions
I have a feeling it will screw with OKC's defense
but do the exact same thing to ours
I HOPE
This doesn’t go like the Orlando game. Just pray that we get hot before they do.
Magic and Clips into overtime
Clips played starters heavy minutes while Magic played around 30. DH played almost 40 though. I hope the Magic can finish that one.
I smell a big game from an odd source.
Maybe N. Smith, Armon, or Williams?
"Brandon Roy has done this before."
I think that was me.
I just had chili for dinner.

Clips have some guys that are a terror in end of game situations
They just won’t lose. Annoying that such a cruddy team can add 2 or 3 guys and be such a pain in the neck.
Those couple of guys happen to be a number 1 pick, CP, Chauncey and Butler. Now add K. Mart. Sheesh!
Must be nice to be able to rebuild the team in FA on a whim
Got sick of waiting for the lottery. Hey! CP3 is up for grabs! Just bring him over!
The Unfortunate, Built In Big City Bias...
It’s pretty hard to keep the glitter chasers outta tinsel town.
We’ll just have to find us some quality dudes who love the great outdoors and like to thump on glamour boys!
#7... GO BLAZERS!!!
not annoying at all,
actually encouraging – we are better than they were…
Plus, eclipsing the L@kers is sweet.
Yardstick Game...
This could be a huge momentum builder!.. One of those rare occasions where I won’t be crushed if we lose but I’ll be completely jacked up if we win.
If we do get this game, and win a revenge game with Houston Weds. night, we’d have the perfect roll going to head out on the road and reverse our travelling slide.
I feel a big game coming from LMA and Crash with some frustrating defense by Batum and We$ on the Thunder perimeter sprinkled with some big rejections and a ton of rebounds from The Camby Man. Steal and breakout boys… steal and breakout!!!…
#7... GO BLAZERS!!!
Haha! tbtv is stuck on a continuous loop advertising their streaming games. Not good.
#52--------I believe in Greg Oden
Batum.
Step up, prove you can shoot like that on a nightly basis- Please !
"We gotta get this $#!^ together guys!" - Phil
Our bench might get smoked tonight
Need someone to step up. It’s always hard to watch the bench get demolished
Last time Harden just went right to the rim repeatedly
Not looking forward to seeing that again
Do you really have to study accounting?
I learned addition and subtraction in the third grade.
I know nothing about accounting, but I'm assuming stocks are an asset.
My guess is credit the stock and debit cash. Simple.
lol
so much red tape
no wonder insanity is on the rise
Jazz and Spurs still down in the 4th
Clips look like they’ve beat the Magic. Could still be a pretty good night.
Utah lost. Need OKC and Denver to lose
Would put us in 4th because we’re 2 – 0 against Denver. Would also put us 2nd in the NW division.
Going to take a miracle for Denver to lose to Houston at home though. Might take a miracle for us to win tonight too.
His story is crazy.
I’m not Chinese/Taiwanese but I want him to succeed so much. Led his school to the state championship and didn’t get a scholarship anywhere until Harvard gave him one. Played great all 4 years. Shocked people in the summer league after destroying John Wall. Then was basically a running joke here in the bay area last year. It’s great to see him having success finally.
Yeah he was basically looked at as a novelty his first year here.
It’s great to see him showing people that he can actually play.
Yeah, I saw him play in college.
Pretty skilled player. I think he can be a decent backup, though I don’t expect him to keep playing this well. Never know, though.
We need another monstrous night from Batum!
Go Blazers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
.
Wallace, Batum, Aldridge, Rhino, Camby, Crawford
I’d like big nights from all of these guys
we have had a bit of time to prepare for this big game,
so, coaching had a chance to set some strategy. I hope it is effective.
Motivation should not be a problem in this one.
I really expect the start to be intense, OC wants to stun the Blazers at home quickly.
Really watching close for the start- could be a big factor. Whatever it takes, don’t let them steal and dunk right off.
I think we really need Felton, as much a we all like to hate his screw ups...
bad feeling about this one
WITH ODEN ON OUR SIDE
Just a guess... but with Jamal Starting
I have a feeling hes going to try to be an actual pg this game, and he gets 10+ assists tonight (i can hope anyways)
GAME ON !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

if you are going to run a Zone put in some effort atleast
it took 1 pass to get the 2 time scoring champiion wide open
How was that not a foul?
Porter, Drexler, Kersey, Williams, Duckworth. The greatest starting 5 ever.

Drivng to the rim from all the way on perimeter and a tough AND 1 bank shot over 2 OKC Big men
WITH ODEN ON OUR SIDE
Crawford is doing a nice job setting up his teammates
and playing within the offense
yeah this please
he’s busy racking up assists right now
Crawford is doing a nice job of balancing offense and setting up teammates.
I didn’t think it had it in him – is it sustainable?
If so, new starting PG.

Lots of steals and offensive rebounds for us, and OKC gets a lot of fouls
Porter, Drexler, Kersey, Williams, Duckworth. The greatest starting 5 ever.
Please Nolan Smith just don't suck.
Don’t have to be good, just be invisible.
smiff!
I don't always root for an NBA franchise, but when I do, I prefer the Portland Trail Blazers.
HAHAHAHAHAAHAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LET THE LAMONSTER ERA BEGIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
haha... these fouls aren't even controversal... they are flat out fouls...
I just hope that the refs dont try to even out the fouls later
these are ridiculously obvious fouls
it’s like a fail fest
BATUM TIPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LET THE LAMONSTER ERA BEGIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
^this
LET THE LAMONSTER ERA BEGIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
wow they really wont call a foul on durant...
Whats wallace supposed to do on defense? hes getting physically beat up by durant
Durant is making Crash mad
Porter, Drexler, Kersey, Williams, Duckworth. The greatest starting 5 ever.
CRASH SMASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LET THE LAMONSTER ERA BEGIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I feel for the guy, hes getting the crap beat outta him by durant
Literally andthe refs are just turning the other way
That's why I don't like Durant. He knows he's not going to get called for stuff and he reeeally takes
advantage of it.
#52--------I believe in Greg Oden
What happens when Cindy and Mike start dating and he takes off his shoes?
Porter, Drexler, Kersey, Williams, Duckworth. The greatest starting 5 ever.
Oh so he needs to wear them all the time then
Could make things awkward

Could be wrong. I've seen random inconsistencies in the in-game box scores.
Usually corrected after the game.
I've noticed it usually tends to be ESPN screwing up the minutes oddly enough
Yahoo is pretty consistent.
As Ive been saying for the past week we should be running all our offense through Crash and then trade him at the march deadline
His play right now is reminding me of Shawn Marions when the Raptors signed and traded him to the mavericks . Im not sure hes ready to accept a reduced role like Marion was though
BATOOOM AND 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

bench is doing ok right now

by blazers12 on Feb 6, 2012 7:47 PM PST via Android app reply actions
lower the should and get some foul shots
easy as pie
I really dont see the point of running any other offense other than LMA when he is in the game.
We are pretty much wasting his playtime if he is not involved in the offense
WITH ODEN ON OUR SIDE
Man that beard is getting rather large.

We need to go through LMA again
Porter, Drexler, Kersey, Williams, Duckworth. The greatest starting 5 ever.
not really... hes played pretty well so far
has tried to run the offense, and has only taken pretty good shots so far
How do you forget someone by running two plays that good shots on 2 straight possessions ?

That's as good of a way to explain it as any
If Jamal adjusted his game and the starting offense flowed smoother with his presence, I wonder what would happened when Ray returns. Ray’s not as abysmal as some have complained about, especially as he’s playing a little better recently, but perhaps a vet at PG would help calm the team.
im surprised
OKC hasn’t pressured him that much. they’d negate a lot of what PDX is doing right now. and im sure jamal would struggle a bit against it.
PHILLY!
I can see Felton grumbling now from the bench.
by BeaumontTXBlazerFan on Feb 6, 2012 8:00 PM PST up reply actions
I think the added benefit might be too
less minutes for Felton, more minutes for Batum
by Peteyhasnohead on Feb 6, 2012 8:00 PM PST up reply actions
If I'm Nate, I'm telling Aldridge to get under that hoop and grab some boards. These Ibaka put backs
are killing this team. It just tells OKC to keep shooting because even if they miss they will get the ball back.
If I'm nate, I'm grabbing L.A. some gatorade
and saying thank you.
if i'm nate, i'm telling aldridge to keep on being the 2nd best perimeter defender among pfs.

by heybabydrinkyourmilk on Feb 6, 2012 8:03 PM PST via mobile reply actions
here's a quick primer
Does the blazer’s opponent run pnrs all game?
if so, aldridge will not rebound great, because he is playing perimeter D.
Does the opponent run screens for shooters?
then he will rebound well.

I'm amazed teams aren't more physical with Westbrook
Though it’s possible I just don’t see it since I rarely see them outside of Blazer games.
