I hate these late west coast starts.

 

[Absolute Zero]

This time, the Blazers should have Aldridge and Lopez back in the line up. Last time we played, this wasn't the case. This will be another steep test for "small ball".

It doesn't help to go to bed wired with adrenaline after a loss or close game later in the evening.

I know. I hate that. Just like the ASU/Oregon St football game loss this past year ended around midnight and I could not sleep the entire night.

Yikes. How could the Sun Devils lose that game. The team looked frozen. I'm glad I am not the only one who gets upsets when my favorite team loses, especially late in the evening.

It is hard to take. And the older I get the worse it seems to be.

Go Suns!!!!!

It looks like Charles Barkley will be joining the TNT crew to do the Suns-Blazers game. Time to buy some earplugs. I'm trying to remember the last time Charles has been kind to the Suns and I can't.

No need to worry Barkley is doing the Cavs game.

Obviously I misread. Thanks for the good news.

Thanks.

Well I guess Charles does not like playing 3 PGs together or something like that. It's not that Charles is wrong but he sure can grind on the Suns.

Brain fart on Alex Len part, on not getting that rebound.

 

[Ronin]

Alex Len with 2 personal fouls.

 

[AfroSuns]

Bledsoe with stupid plays

 

[Absolute Zero]

Lopez has erased 2 layups already

 

[Ronin]

6 turnovers already.

 

[82CardsGrad]

6 turnovers already.

Bledsoe with 3 of them...

 

[Absolute Zero]

We are playing horribly

 

[Absolute Zero]

Bledsoe with 3 of them...

Wrongo. ESPN has him down for FOUR. Doesn't look like a point guard to me

 

[Ronin]

Bledsoe with 3 of them...

Thomas felt left out so he decided to turnover the ball after the timeout. geez.

 

[StreetTruckinTitan]

This is the type of game where Jeff needs to pull all his starters and empty the bench just to prove a point. You know the bench would put out an effort.
