Blazers went to sleep in 3rd quarter, but finally in 4th began to see what Odem might be. once the rest of Blazers figure out how to play with him.

Travis? Not smart?

Yeah, they should have been smart enough to pay the refs more money than what they’re getting from the Columbo family.

It’s nice to see the mob can still swing points when it counts.

I agree, GO needs to start. There is no point in continuing to baby him and delaying the inevitable.

Also, there is absolutely no reason to call Travis for a line violation because it had no effect on whether the ball went in or not. That call should only be whistled if the ball doesnt go in as this gives the shooting team an advantage for the rebound.

Shaq goes over the foul line early on just about every free throw. I don’t recall Diesel getting called for that, especially on a make.

That final call was utterly pathetic. Rudy got his first taste of NBA injustice. However, in the NBA, you often have to win by ‘more’ then 1 point. You also need a cushion for bad calls. The Warriors outworked us last night and we made silly mistakes, that is what cost us the game. Again, if you want to win in another teams gym, you have to be ahead by enough to withstand any injustice… and we didn’t put ourselves in that position.
