    I'd say all in all, that was a pretty fine quarter.

    Remember, the Blazers are young, good and were shooting lights out.

    I thought I'd be seeing some more of Chase, perhaps in the second half.

    Hate bad choice 2 for 1s. If you have something open, take it, but don't rush it to rush it...

    Not a bad quarter, not great, but not bad. Hopefully our shots start falling and we keep up our D.

    Ariza has been good, but I didn't like the way he was giving Roy uncontested looks early...we can't afford to give up on any play this season.

    The announcers aren't THAT bad guys, i mean...it could be worse, it could be the Boston announcers :rolleyes:

    Woops, It's only second quarter. Disregard that last comment.

    Mine is blackout for some reason. I live down here RGV, maybe this means we are no longer a Spurs market but a Rockets market.

    I like the aggressiveness so far.

    I would really like to see the perimeter defense get under control, and Landry/Scola need to realize that Outlaw is looking to throw up a jumpshot.

    Really, it was a pretty good first quarter considering the size advantage. Greg Oden is in chains courtesy of Chuck Hayes.

    I am not sure what to take of our 1st quarter.

    We had "Zero" inside game "Scola had a bad quarter"
    We had a lot of FT's, i shudder to think if we didn't get calls
    We got out rebounded 12 vs 18

    But we managed to have a tie quarter.

    Tied and surely the Rocks will shoot better than 32% for the rest of the game. I am happy so far, holding our own against a much bigger team. Without Hayes, our interior defense is scary. It is kind of scary with him.
