Geez this Saints-Niners game is crazy
Was too far to huck a beer at a Stro’s player as per bone’s request. Jess (girlfriend) said I was too far, I said challenge accepted, a security guard said guess again.-BD34
That is the reason I don't go to Battle Red Blog. I would be too rational and guys would flag my posts as spam.-batman713

This refs already pissing me off
First, they’re whistlling every little contact off the ball
Second, they’re seeing shooting foul when a guy is dribbling
And now they don’t whistle obvious goaltending…
Great hustle
Two offensive boards and we get a nice basket.

Kyle Lowry is like... So good
Every time I’m like “Yeah, he’s going to slow a little bit now” and he keeps having better and better games
maybe
Alternatively, on a better team the rebounding would be better and he wouldn’t have the same forward-ish numbers.
Hum... No
Still won’t get more than 7 rebonds a game
by RiiseRockets on Jan 14, 2012 7:32 PM CST up reply actions
We're a pretty high pace team
We’re a little-above-average rebounding team but our big men have no problem tipping a rebound to another player if it’s easier, that’s also one of the reasons why Lowry have such good rebounding stats.
by RiiseRockets on Jan 14, 2012 7:39 PM CST up reply actions
no we're not.
Not this year. 18th in pace
We are a good rebounding team, however. 10th in Offensive Rebounding Percentage, 9th in Defensive Rebounding Percentage.
Lucky bounce.

Yeah, he'll probably be the Byron Mullens of this game
And if Charlotte is any prediction, we’ll win this one.
Well, I was thinking of that game last year where Patty Mills went freaking nuts.

Sorry I'm late guys
Yes, Craig Smith always plays us well. He is just too damn big and strong.
I hate david stern!
Man I really like LMA.
That guy is very good. I just wish he could rebound more.

Well, that happens when you got whistle on an obvious mooving screen.
This refs really sucks, both ways.

I already did it 473 times
But I want to make another my mea culpa for having once said last year that Brooks should start over Lowry.
+ our five is better with Parsons
Better D.
And Bud’ bring O on our bench.

True.
But where ever Bud and Hill go defense doesn’t follow.

Really don't understand the "Bud's an horrible defender" thing
At worst he’s an average one…
by RiiseRockets on Jan 14, 2012 8:14 PM CST up reply actions
Gets lost on defense, blows plays pretty often.
He has length, and so as long as he stays with his man he’s good, but when he goes to help he usually doesn’t recover.
It's disappointment mostly.
He is way too athletic to not be at least better at defense.
I hate david stern!
Hey guys, just coming on. Was watching Tebow.
by Edwin AnDre Johnson Capron on Jan 14, 2012 8:25 PM CST reply actions
Why would you watch the first half of a Tebow game as opposed to the second?

Too many bullshit calls against us.
I swear there has to be more to this than what we see.

To be fair the bullshit calls are both way
But it’s true that it’s helping the Blazers a little more.

Parsons starting to get the hand of defending Batum,
Wallace too physical for him
Lowry is a monster and these ticky tack fouls suck.
That’s about all I can say for this game.

yeah, those phantom fouls suck the life out of our starting frontcourt
Lowry keeping us ahead, with Martin helping from time to time. Bud has a good bounce-back game too. No problem—Parsons and Bud can share the SF position.
And Tebow is getting destroyed so far. Poor guy.

He is playing against someone who will be known as the best ever by the time he is done.
I hate david stern!
Yes, but more importantly
he’s playing against one of the worst pass defenses in the NFL, and he still sucks.
I want him to win, but only because it’s funny.
The defense is bad
But as long as Bill Bilechick is coaching they will show up when it counts.
I hate david stern!
I agree, but this is gonna give the Tebow haters major firepower,
and I don’t really care for Tebow one way or the other, but I HATE his overblown detractors.

You see a quick lineup out there for the Blazers.
What the hell are Scola and Dalembert doing in at the same time?
Quit going up like bitches and go up strong.
Little finger rolls arent gonna work with arms like Batum.
damn batum is killin you guys
btw I voted in Lowry for the starter for the west..wish my blazers had him!
Thank you sir!

wow, lowry went conservative on that last shot
as long as POR didn’t get the ball back
I'd much rather have a missed shot than a rebound and possible score for Portland

Kyle Lowry could be in MVP talks now.
But roxs have to keep on winning though.

I know It will be Great Because we won tonight
Nice win Houston. We have no Brandon Roy anymore. Which means you guys are going to be winning a lot of games vs
Portland lol. Lowry is a beast. He destroyed Felton.
Thx (1138)
To be fair that was a pretty beautyfull game outside te 4th and the OT were both teams were gassed.

Thanks man
You guys have an awesome team though. Hope to meet in the playoffs again.

Great win
but still tons of work for this team. There needs to be some go to plays for the 2nd team offense without Lowry on the floor. Also need to figure out what they want to do with a few minutes left, looked like chaos. Lowry is an artist right now and his canvas is the hardwood.

Unsung hero award goes to...
Chase Budinger. He played very well off the bench. Personally, I’m just glad he didn’t have another stinker.
I hate david stern!
I give McHale a lot of credit tonight
foul trouble for the bigs and still managed to get them to play well. Also playing Budinger a lot of minutes when it would’ve been easy to play Parsons way more, especially since he’s been really good lately. Bud came in and gave the bench a lift.
by twinkilling0303 on Jan 14, 2012 10:32 PM CST up reply actions
I thought Kevin's defense was better this game.
Bud’s was still terrible, but that’s not surprising.
Still, if Kevin can play better defense, I’ll be much happier with him.
What's up fellas?
Great game to be at, the stadium was hauntingly empty and then it filled out a little bit more towards the end. From what I saw, Martin played decent defense although his offensive game was off, and Lowry is an absolute monster. Dalembert made some boneheaded plays but he was OK out there.
Sonicsgate: A movie about how the Sonics were stolen from Seattle.
Lowry started the match 11-13 and then went for 2-13
But he hit the clutch 3 !
