    Thanks for the upload. Wow, that was incredible to watch. What an amazing performance after all he went through this season.

    For anyone interested, there's a great write-up of the game at www.blazersedge.com. My favorite quote:

    "What he lacks in meniscus, he makes up for in nuts," one writer quipped hours later, the performance still sinking in.​

    LOL at Dallas. Dallas Morning News puts it well:

    "The biggest enemy of the Mavs is that feeling they have inside each and every one of them when the game starts slipping a bit. That familiar and haunting feeling. And they cannot defeat it.

    Here we go again.

    And that is why it is so easy to tie years and years of damage into one quarter of basketball played on April 23, 2011. Because it is all related. Every last second of it."

    Dallas is done. Not only for this year, they are done period. They need to break that team up and start over.

    Nothing to do with choking.

    Holy cow, they are way worse then us when it comes to the game thread. Trashing Portland, the players, Roy's voice...

    I nearly fell off my chair laughing when I was reading their responses after Roy's 4 point play:grin:

    Good game so far. I think Dallas is the better team overall, but they look like they're just trying to get their confidence back. Meanwhile, the Blazers are playing like they believe they can take this series. Really shows how much of this game is mental.

    Fernandez has played bad in this playoffs. I remember he didn't play well either when they played against us two years ago.
