Thanks for making the thread, gambitnut. Hopefully Portland wakes up a bit here towards the end of the first half...

Man, Zach and Damon have looked terrible defensively this first half, haven't they?

Ed O.

Here comes the RUNNNNN....btw..DMILES looks like crazy eyes in that photo.

 

[MAS RipCity]

Damn Zach is lighting it up here in the 2nd quarter. Way to go ZBO!

They did go on a run, maybe they didn't know the game had started because they didn't see a game thread here yet!:laugh:

Are you surprised?

 

[RipCity9]

They have no chance against Sheed and Z-Bo inside. As long as we stop their fast breaks like we did during the second quarter, we should get the W.

 

[NateBishop3]

Ok... SERIOUSLY. The only guy doing anything in the quarter is Miles and Cheeks pulls him.... nice.

yeah cheeks is retarded

Evidently you and NateBishop3 weren't watching how Miles was slumped over with his hands on his knees at every dead ball because he was so exhausted.

Miles needed a break and Cheeks recognized that.

Not EVERY substitution he makes is bad.

:cannibal: (-----------Cheeks

 

[NateBishop3]

man... you know, I was defending Dale Davis quite a bit earlier in the season, but he is just down right terrible right now. And it seems like he's getting worse with every game.

 

[NateBishop3]

D-Miles may have been tired for that one substitution, but he sure wasn't for this last one. I'd rather pull Person. Wes hasn't done much in this game.

 

[Dan]

Denver is just out playing Portland.

Once they get close, Denver goes nuts.

The Nuggets are getting some calls they don't entirely deserve, but thats because they're actually playing better.

Dale Davis has been a waste for a long time now.

 

[Blazerfan024]

These refs must have bet for Denver too

 

[Blazerfan024]

O u can hang on the rim now and not get called for T

 

[Dan]

Denver it outshooting the BLazers in all 3 things. FT's, 3pt, and FG..

Portland has over double the amount of turnovers..

and we're insanely out-rebounding them.

Down by 15 (at the last time I checked)...

yep, I think we're back to normal folks!

 

[NateBishop3]

sometimes Cheeks just doesn't make sense. He takes out Miles and the whole thing goes in the dumps. So why leave him out?

 

[bfan1]

Q looks scared..Cheeks pushed him too far.

I am glad we signed a point guard, now let Q go back to his regular position. It wasn't fair to push it beyond the obvious.

 

[MAS RipCity]

WTF happened? I left at halftime for my midterm and we closed the lead to 2...I was like "man,we are gonna lay the wood to them in the 2nd half" I call my mom after I get done taking my test and we are gettin takin out to the wood shed.....what happened?

 

[dkap]

I hope your test went better than the 2nd half...
