    Jokic played 65 freaking minutes. 65 of 68. How many players ever have played that many minutes in a game? Two. dale Ellis at 69. And the XMan at 68.

    Not sure what Malone was thinking.

    Yep.

    Not a coincidence that Hood came in and tore it up. He was the only dude not dead tired. There were several rebounds where Jokic just didn't even try likely because he had pushed himself past whatever limit he had.

    Yep. CJ, who had been balling out, ran out of gas. Portland coach should be given credit for a timely sub. Sometimes you got to trust somebody else when your starters are done, right, MDA?

    Imagine if it were us in that position, and Jimmy missed that free throw. Lol.

    Good coaching by putting in Rodney. MDA would have played the 6 guys we have and not given another guy a shot.

    My dumb ass didn't realize I was watching ' Wells Fargo above the rim' broadcast. :p:(

    That's what I get for using xfinity voice remote command to find the game :rolleyes:

    Yeah I’ve done that before. I was getting super pissed off till I realized I wasn’t on the normal feed. I don’t know why anyone would want to watch a game like that.

    Rodney Hood dominated the last two minutes of a close playoffs game. Who would have thought that?


    Of course we will just ignore the fact that everyone else was dead tired.

    dont feel too bad about losing to warriors now. portland looks like a better team than us so not a guarantee we win championship even if we beat warriors. kanter> capela. .sad that we had the chance to pick up a legit C to give Nene some rest but didnt do it..

    So first of all, I'm really happy for my Blazers. You don't even know how happy this makes me. Secondly, I'm still rooting for you guys over the Warriors. Ok, you had a couple of **** games to start the series, but it's not over yet. I just really want to see someone humble these jerk offs, and honestly think you guys still have the best chance at it. Don't give up now.

    Blazers have a better chance than us against the Warriors, since they are bigger, more athletic and both their guards can show up and tear it up! Rockets rely too much on Harden and unfortunately the refs.

    Lillard took it to the rim and Hood hit his 3. Game.
