Feels pretty good. AMD>Intel

that's cool, I hear they may even turn a profit one of these years.

 

[Treesquid PhD]

Lamarcus Aldridge is just getting what he wants tonight

a loss?

well he was moving a bit and the blazers are getting killed. I am sure he'll get some.

 

[atikiN]

a loss?

Hah!

 

[Hat]

Damn Hill looks like he really hurt his right arm again.

Give the guy a break coach before he breaks a leg!

 

[Griffin]

Hill looked in pain on that last possession. I think he re-aggravated the wrist.

Refs just arent giving nash the charges anymore

refs have become hesitant to call charging fouls for the whole season for everyone though. they called blocking on a couple of Suns moves that looked like charging too.

I've never been sold on Greg Oden's transition to the NBA but if he can show up and play some defense the Trailblazers are onto something IMO. Bright future.

 

[Wakes1332]

looks like 5 in a row for the sunnies!

 

[Andrew]

Hope Grant is okay...

Five in a row, and we got an easy one tomorrow. Seattle gave Denver 168 points...who knows how many points we will score on them. Enjoy this, ya'll.

[mojorizen7]

Did Brandon Roy play tonight?

Props to Bell.

Didn't catch the first half because I was working late, but I loved what I saw in the 2nd half. Shaq is amazing- 16 points, 15 boards, 5 assists, along with a couple of steals and 3 blocks. I jumped out of my recliner when he posted up, scored, ran back, blocked a shot, then caught the ball and passed it to Boris for a dunk. I loved it when he went after Prsbyla (sp). Nice to see our guys pushing people around for a change.

Everyone else did a good job. I just hope Hill is ok. Looked like he hurt his wrist again.

46 rebounds, 11 more than Portland, it's great.

Did Brandon Roy play tonight?

Props to Bell.

Yeah, he appears to be a bit quicker than earlier in the season, as does Nash. I think with Shaq we played more strict defense while not running as much. That might explain the sudden rise of energy with everybody on the team. We are an old team now so that this makes a difference.

In any ways, this became an easy win because of Shaq. Roy and Jack bumped into him in the paint repeatedly and lost the ball or got blocked, which frustrated their penetrators. Last time we met, their guys penetrated at will. This really is one single most important factor that alone would make us a much better defensive team, while saving energy of our perimeter players at the same time.

Good to see we are going to Shaq more in the post for offense... Loved the physical play by Shaq. Surprised D'Antoni is moving away from his game.
