2010-11 Regular Season

[LakersFan_33]

Battie with a Bi*** move on Blake Griffin. Nearly started a fight.

[LakersFan_33]

Actually maybe not, once you see the replay.

[misha]

Luke had a pretty good game: 15 ponts (6-12), 8 rebounds, 2 blocks in 25 minutes. Hope that he can continue that way.

[Megatron]

Cavs are getting destroyed by the Blazers. Down by 41 points. I feel sorry for Luke and Semih.

It seems as if year in and out, Portland manages to stay competitive, even with the injury situation. Nate McMillan is one of my favorite Non-Celtic coaches, right behind Doc, Pop, Van Gundy, Thibs, and Scott Brooks.

Smart move by the organization to give him an extension. And they managed to get Gerald Wallace?? That was a big time steal. And if Brandon can continue to give them spot minutes like he's doing, they could create some noise in the playoffs.

Imagine that frontline next year....Oden, LaMarcus, Batum, with GWallace and Camby coming off the bench.

Agreed, they will not be an easy out that's for sure. Assuming they stay the 6th seed, LA or Dallas better hope they get the 2nd seed.

If they move up to 5th in the conference, they could also cause some problems for OKC.

You're right.

I love Perk and Serge, but the way that LaMarcus has played this season, I think they'd have their hands full. The last player to slow down Aldridge was - to my knowledge - Ticket.

KG did do a good job against Aldridge...held him to 17 points (.400 FG%) but since then Aldridge has had 3 more games where he has scored less points:

vs Pacers - 14 points (.333FG%)
vs Rockets - 14 points (.455 FG%)
vs Bobcats - 15 points (.353 FG%)

..and before we played them he had games against Suns, Lakers, Thunder, Clippers and Kings where he has been held to only single digit scores of: 8, 8. 10, 4 and 9. (There are more games where he had been held under 17 points before we played them).

He may have a good against Thunder this time around...but Ibaka certainly has the ability to keep him check...it's not a tough assignment for him.

Yeah those games were all loses for the Blazers too. However outside of the 3 you pointed out, he's been a complete beast since the Boston game. 40 and 11 against SA, 42 and 8 against the Bulls, 29 and 14 against LA, 30 and 8 against DA. Averaging 25 points/10 rebounds in January and 27 points/9 rebounds in the month of February.

Perk and Ibaka could definitely contain him, but the way he's been playing the last few months it seems like a tough task. Luckily Portland and OKC play each other twice before the season ends so it should be interesting!
