Gameday Open Thread: Blazers vs. Kings

I predict

A Blazers win against a Sacramento team that rallies against Channing Frye's comments.

Read the Sactown Royalty blog: they get slightly offended that Channing said their city is boring, but I'm none-too-sure that by the end of the comment thread, they haven't convinced themselves he's right.

PS that sentence rocked.

Read the Sactown Royalty blog

Good Diaries and comments. I might add that Blazer´s Edgers are doing more than 20 good diaries per day, the same production people from Sac are doing per month!. Is there a ranking of NBA blogs?. I think Blazer´s Edge could reach the top.

Tom Ziller

Tom Ziller (posts as "TZ") runs Sactown Royalty, and he's a smart boy who likes to make interesting graphs and stat analysis. He also writes for AOL's Fanhouse blog in the basketball section, and he does good work.

Of course, no blog is better than Blazers Edge. Dave has formed the most active, devoted, intelligent, and bestest community ever in the history of the universe. We're never hungry for content, that is a certainty.

The Best Team deserves the Best Fans, right?

I don't think there is any team-centric blog as active as Blazers Edge. We're bigger than Jesus!

The man with a ton of theories

would say this one:

When a man marries usually has two disadvantages in his relationship with his wife: 1 .- He does not control his obligations at home like a woman does it, so sooner than later will be giving excuses. 2.- He has not menstruation once a month, so he has not these three or four days of fury against the other sex, with the powerful effect that that brings. Young husband´s solution: to do what he always did with the only woman he knew with power at home, his mother, to expect pity and forgiveness. Great mistake.

During our mini-tailspin

When we were perilously close to falling to even .500 (and more perilously close than now), Sacramento was nipping at our heels with only 3 games below .500. Now we've won a few at home and on the road, and Sacramento has fallen to 7 below .500 and not playing as good as they were when they beat us. This will be a tough game, but we can do it my friends!

Handling Beno and Kevin Martin will be key, and hoping Artest has one of his games where chucking jumpers is all he feels like doing. This team is soft (aside from Artest), but talented and they can easily beat us if we aren't on our game. Luckily, we're coming off another victory that sealed a winning road trip and hopefully we will feel confident and eager for revenge. We haven't lost at home much this year, and we need to get that one back.

Unfortunately, even though we've been beating the teams we should beat, we haven't been playing incredible and our bench has been pretty bad. We NEED Outlaw and Jack to play up to their normal level, with Jones hitting the shots he's been hitting. The Kings have good offensive firepower, and we can't just have our starters providing all of the points. LMA should have a great game, and with how he's played this trip he should be confident down low. Of course, I never worry about Roy but if Artest is on him Roy will be out muscled and possibly held in check-- we need everyone else to step up.

This is definately a team that can beat us again, a team that would be in the playoffs in the East (maybe not with their current record, but with their talent). It's crazy wack that there are only 3 bad teams in the West (Seattle, Memphis, Minny (Clippers get a pass because of injuries))...

C'mon Blazers! Play BIG and confident and get a nice win in Arco!

Don't fake the funk on a nasty dunk, Ellie Mae!
Juke and duke and make Artest puke, Roy-Bot!
Hit threes with ease, Webster!
Hit treys till your hairs are greys, Jones!
Block the rock and knock 'em out of their jock, Joel!
Don't worry and frown about knocking it down, Travis!
Listen to my sounds when I humbly request you not step out of bounds, Jack!
Give the defenders vertigo with your dribbles, fakes, and passes-o, Sergio!
Make all you take n' leave them in your wake, Blake!
I will never cry 'WHY!?" as long as you try, Frye!
Never throw in our towels, use your six fouls, Raef!
Wear a nice suit and cough when you toot, McRoberts!
Make America safer by just being Von Wafer!

CUSSING LESSONS...

The school marm's rules for cussing are a little confusing. The basic rule is that Carlin's 7 words and a few others aren't to be used or simulated being used -- people were freaking on you for leading with the letter F. That's a no-no. "f-ing" is right out, even though its used adjectivally rather than as a verb or a violent interjection...

I personally like %&$^##(&N myself, which is faster to type anyway and seems to work fine.

Pleading to various deities seems to be OK, cursing them frowned upon.

There are ways to be pottymouth by using big vocabulary in appropriate context, but if you don't have a big vocabulary, don't try, because things will end badly for you.

I guess that's everything...

This come from a Spanish saying

used when there are many people in a a situation you would like to be few ("few" is ironic in that sentence) and they arrive more people (who in the sentence are represented by grandma´s new baby).

It probably comes from the time when families were very poor and there were not enough to eat because parents had many children and then grandmother had a baby not expected, causing more desperation.

We had no shot at winning this game.

Nate must be pushing these guys too hard. They must be tired from the road trip. Please tell me what excuse is it this time.

Blake was horrible today. He set the tone at the start with the first 3 poss and you get 3 TO. Great job Blake. We saw Sergio early but he played with Jack. Jack brings everybody down. Yes, we should have seen Von Wafer earlier. But -14 in the stats makes you look like a genius. Great job Nate. Jack at SG, Jack at PG, he can do it all, he's the best.

Dynasty

You are absolutely right. That is exactly what i am seeing also. Even with Greg Oden we need to start having more consistency with this team. This team has a chance to be a Dynasty in the future. I really feel we need to tweak this team a little to be that dynasty that we all want. I dont feel we need to ruin the cast but we need a couple of trades to help get the consistency back before we get Greg Oden. Thank you for reading and commenting back.

A few examples of the inconsistencies are: The win in New York in overtime,that is unexcuseable. Just playing weaker teams down to the wire whether at home or on the road. I can be a lot more forgiving on the road except for the hapless Nicks. Come on portland lets start learning from Nate, or lets make an off season trade.
