    The same sad story continues as the NBA, David Stern and the corupt refs continue to f#ck the Blazers over game after game. The score was tied with 10 seconds left then a series of biased onesided calls turned it into a 8 point lead. When is this gonna stop! Owner Paul Allen needs to bring a lawsuit against the NBA for Corruption. Did anyone see that hammer job Shaq did on Sabonis with a monster elbow and no foul was called. It was bad for Jordan years ago but this worse cause the call are so obvious.

    Utter Bull****. The Lakers just ripped the Blazers.

    The game wasn't even tied with 10 minutes left, let alone 10 seconds. The Blazers lost because - suprise!! - they collapsed in the 4th quarter when the game was on the line.

    The only person Owner Paul Allen should sue is his General Manager and his coach.

    The general manager and coach shouldn't be blamed for the blazer's troubles. They have a talented group of players that are just uncoachable.

    Then the General Manager shouldn't have brought them on board, and the Coach should have made a stand. But I don't think that all of those players are uncoachable, but when you get that many star players, and former stars together, and have them fight each other for minutes, you are asking for trouble.

    And despite all the trades and talent, they still don't have a superstar 4th quarter player.

    Agreed. It's just like managing a sales force, if they don't produce, you take measures to make sure they do or they are gone.

    Playoff basketball is usually when you trim down to about 8 guys. That way, the chemistry is consistent and the team is able to get into a rythm. In Dunleavy's camp, he has a bunch of current and former stars fighting for minutes. Most of these guys deserve the minutes, but how does your team get into the flow playing shorter spurts and subbing in and out a lot? Hard team to coach, without a doubt.

    I just hope they put it together and beat the Lakers, then I don't care if they go to hell in a handbasket.

    I know, pipe dream......*sigh*

    dc rock - Take your political garbage elsewhere. I deal with facts not excuses. Even in the Blazers 2 wins vs the NBA's Lakers they received all the calls.

    As long as that b**** Scottie Pippen doesn't advance, I'm a happy camper.

    You don't deal in facts, you deal in skewed perceptions. 99% of your posts are the same thing. Lakers blah blah blah get the calls blah blah blah profanity blah blah blah Pacer were screwed.

    The refereeing in the Lakers game, except for the Wallace tech, was not bad. Los Angeles is just that much better than a disintegrating Failblazer team.

    And THIS coming from a Pippen supporter! [​IMG] The Blazers are getting beat by the better team, just like the better team beat them last year.

    I'm still trying to figure out how the referees keep guiding those Laker three-pointers into the basket.
