Sometimes watching Paul reminds me of one word...cheating
As if he beats the game of basketball  ;D

its like when he gets the ball his mind is assessing every type of foul he could possibly draw, along with with "how can i get matched up with someone WAY smaller than me?".

BBD's jumper improved, but his finishing around the basket has regressed dramatically
He's never been a consistent finisher. He does best when he can stick his but into the defender and push them clear.

The Blazers are turning it over like crazy. You can see how much having Roy out disrupts their offense.

I have liked Oden's passing out of doubles though. If Powe could learn to do that. Though having the extra height helps a lot with that.

Nice we're in the penalty already. Ray taking advantage.

Another homer announcing call, "if it were called both ways the Blazers would shoot 100 free throws".

They're right that getting Oden the ball in the Post has been the Blazers only effective play on offense.

Celtics need to keep them off the FT line.

Oden just hip checked Ray Allen after the whistle into the crowd. He gets a foul and a technical.

Announcers claim that the Blazers are "growing up" and "showing that they're sick of KGs trash talk". Way to stand up to KG by laying out his much smaller team mate.

Nothing too dirty about it overall.

We're getting too cute with interior passing, two TOs in a row.

yea, nothing says growing up like trying to pick on some other kid and then puff out your chest at the guy your mad at.

Oh wait, thats the exact opposite, my fault. Bunch of marys.

This game is getting chippy. Aldridge threw his shoulder into KG. Blazer's announcers called it a flop  ::). Aldridge is a big boy, its not like its Blake hitting him.

Hip checking a guy 8 inches shorter and much heavier than you is growing up?

That is the fate of being the champs. Hopefully we can stay so hated for a few more years.

We should still be up 12. We had consecutive turnovers far too many times in the second quarter.

 :-\ Turning the ball over, not our bench is the biggest weakness of the Celts this year.
