Voted: Blazers most fun NBA team to watch

[jflip2002]

Thats cool, a lot of people are like that. Ever since I was a little kid, i just didnt enjoy liking the same team as everyone else. It seems boring. But whatever suits you, its your team, as long as you stick by them. I stick by my teams. Worst record in the NFL in 1998, Worst record in the NBA in 03-04, 119 loses by the tigers in 03 (2nd worst ever). None of my teams have ever won a championship, besides the University of Michigan in 1997 (or 98 rose bowl). I stick by my teams, though.

I guess I was just raised to be a die hard hometown fan.

[jflip2002]

We? Do you have a hometown or are you a bandwagon fan?

LOL, please. Ive been a Magician fan since '94 when they had Shaq, Grant, Scott, Anderson, Penny. Trust me, it would be a lot easier (and more successful) pulling for the "home team" Los Angeles Lakers. I dont like local teams in any sport, I dont like pulling for teams that everyone else around me likes. Thus the Eagles, Tigers, Magic, Flyers are my teams. I was posting on 11/25 about my Magicians. So please get off my balls, waffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffles.

Portland would be nice if they got a real shooting guard. B Roy is supposed to play the point. Shit, start Travis outlaw at the 2 even. Bring blake off the bench for a spark. Itd be a big, and athletic line up. Aldrige also has to step up.

That's the Lakers' crowd every game... pathetic if you ask me. I have a few friends that live in LA and said that the LA fans are very fair-weather.

I can imagine that it was pretty loud in Houston during game six.



Portland fans are pretty nuts. 15,000+ showed up downtown in the middle of the day on a Tuesday for a playoff rally.


I can't wait for next year :)

I have enormous respect for portland. It was an excellent series. IMO blake is your weak link. If you get an all star point guard, shitcan pryzbilla and get an offensive threat to mix with oden then you'd be awesome. Any yeah, game 6 was intense.

What concerned me last night was how freaking quiet the LA crowd was. Portland had much better fans. Last night's game sounded like a clippers pre season game against memphis.

I was at game 6 against portland in houston and my freaking ears were ringing.

Orlando will beat Boston. We lost a huge lead against philly in game 1, but actually lost that game. Then Orlando took four of the next five. The same mental lapse happened lastnight, but the victory was still pulled out. Orlando keeps doing what they do... they get away from Dwight in the second half, and start jacking up threes.

As far as Orlando having the best chance to not get swept Vs. Cleveland... 2-1 Vs. Cleveland this year, 1 loss by 1 point. They dont have an answer for Dwight. Hedo actually matches up pretty well (As well as you can) against King James.

I really like Orlando's chances of winning the championship this year. I can taste it.

Interesting games today. I'm happy that the Rockets won, and I'm happy that the Celtics lost. I don't know what to think of the boston/orlando game though. It's not east to see who will win the series, but my guess is Orlando will figure out how to choke somehow. I hope not though, I'd rather see them play Cleveland -- they have the better chance of not being swept.

[jflip2002]

Rondo is a dirty little cock sucking piece of shit.

[Turf1600]

I think we all agree that the refs changed the way that game was played. Great game though otherwise - I just wish it was called fairly on both ends.

[jflip2002]

The Lakers are the lock of the playoffs. Orlando is far from overrated, Philly just gives us match up problems. Philly and Detroit are the two teams I fear in the east more than anyone. There are just certain teams that give us fits, and those are the two. When we get past Philly, it'll be smoother sailing. We are 2-2 Vs. Cleveland (1 loss was by 1 point), and 2-0 Vs. Los Angeles. We had that bad night I was speaking of earlier in the thread. Hedo didnt make a FG until the 4th quarter. Dwight leaving hurt really started that rally. Theres no excuse for losing an 18 point lead in the late 3rd, early 4th, though.

Just remember that it took Boston 7 games to beat Atlanta in the first round last year.

[Turf1600]

Orlando is WAY over rated. I have absolutely no doubt in my mind that it will be cleveland in the finals.

In the west it's a toss up. The lakers can be beat.

[jflip2002]

Why the fuck do Laker fans think they all of a sudden have Hakeem Olajuwon? ITS ANDREW FUCKING BYNUM. WHO CARES? Hes not good, hes a little above average. Sure, its great to have him, rather than not. But it doesnt change the dynamics of the Lakers. Theyre still the favorites in the West, and will still not beat Cleveland or Orlando in the finals.

[TurkE30]

cant mess with lakers, Bynum being back is a huge help..
