    Let Portland win, I care about New Orleans and I hope they keep losing. Let us be the 5th seed so we can beat the inexperienced Blazers.

    Brandon Roy is very clutch but this was not a good game for the Blazers (except for the win). When you are up 77-60 in the 3rd quarter on a team like the Knicks and give up a 34-7 run, something is wrong. I didn't think they could pull it off but an 8-0 closing run wins the game. Steve Blake better return right after the All-Star break because they miss him big time.

    Most people just don't know how good Roy is because Blazers games are rarely on national TV. He is one of the best closers in the NBA.

    Heart-breaking loss for the Knicks in the worst way. They were feeling pretty good for a while but let this one slip.

    The fact that NYK didn't foul when they had a foul to give was ridiculous.

    And then as Roy goes through the lane, the Knicks D parts likes the red sea. I have no idea how or why D'Antoni didn't tell them time and time again that they had a foul to give during the two timeout breaks.

    Screw the Knicks they had many chances they were up eight late in the game if you can't close the game then you're setting yourself up for heartbreak.

    Yeah, don't know what the heck D'Antoni was thinking.

    We could have gotten ahead of the Blazers if the knicks decided to give the foul they had.

    whoops, I though you said 'I bet'

    anyway, all teams I wanted to lose today have lost. Hopefully Det can beat the Suns and the Warriors beat the j*zz.

    let me tell you.. you do not want to see Portland in the first round.
    They have amazing chemistry, teamwork, and are extremely hungry.
    I watch all Blazers and Rockets games. B Roy is a winner. T-Slack not so much.
    If that matchup were to happen, I'd still root for my hometown Rockets, but they will lose 4-2 in a 7 game series.

    :confused: :confused:

    You are aware that a 7 game serie, stops after one teams reaches 4 wins, right?

    You have seen the play offs before, haven't you?

    btw nice move by Roy.
