Crash The Boards T-shirt
John Pettice from BobCatsPlanet was kind enough to make up the Crash The Boards T that used to be in only orange and blue in to more Portland friendly colors.
Its too good of a design to not make use of here in Portland and Ill be getting my self one. I though some of you might be interested.

My Chip Kelly costume for next halloween
Seems fitting after seeing things like the 4th and seven play call last night that resulted in a touchdown.
Why I watch
Pretty cool video.

Its here #2
Hopefully this game awakens LMA to realize how good he can be.
Does anybody know where I can watch the exchange between Batum and Amare? I had to work when the 4th quarter started.
Andre Miller Makes Me Angry
With Camby receiving the large contract extension and chants from a ravenous Rose Garden crowd, I can't help but feel bad for the experience that Andre Miller has received here.
I mean I know you know and he knows that the intelligent blazer fans (excepting some of our local writers and people living in Hawaii (not to say the ones in hawaii are not intelligent) ) appreciate what Andre brings to our team. (I mean he averages like 15 and 7 for his career and does things our beloved blake could only dream of doing)
The thing that makes me mad with Andre is that he has had his most notable performances on the road, the kind of performances that would induce chants of AN-DRE ,,, MILL-ER. Is it a coincidence that we are so much better on the road this year? Andre Miller I think loves to play off the opposing crowd and rip their heart out. We all witnessed him do it to us last year, and now we have seen him do it in opposing stadiums many times this year.
Just imagine how he would play for our home crowd if he didnt have to rip ours out and instead we gave him our hearts with some chants akin to what Marcus received against OKC.
I propose that people cheer really loud and even try to emulate what they did for Marcus Camby for Andre when the Blazers return home for game three of this series. Us as fans have not given him the proper tribute he deserves for saving our season and that game would be a fitting time.

Top 10 must see games for 2009
Its funny, I was listening to 95.5 on the way home from a soccer game this evening and Loony was discussing the NBA schedule and he gave his Top 10 must see games of the year. It's interesting how much radio personalities have to adhere to their companies ideas and agendas. His top 10 games are the exact same and in the same order as the top 10 put out here by Fox Sports. I guess he could have wrote this list for them but I doubt it. Its kinda like when you here a dj talk about an awesome new song they are playing but you know they hate it.
Wade wants a 'ship
Wade wants to be on a title contender. Even with signing extentions for LMA and BROY could and would Paul Allen just go over the cap and get Dwade for an almost sure thing multiple rings type session in portland? We wouldn't need to get a PG and we could trade current assets for a Banger PF.
I know nothing about cap space and such but is this even possible?
Portland, but only if a real center can be found to replace the dud that Greg Oden has turned out to be.
Wednesday Night Scoreboard Sweat/Game thread/Game links
Hey Im sweating some games tonight, Im watching the Double header on ESPN but am also looking for the Denver/New orleans game link if somebody has it.
Also dont u guys wish that brandon roy took it took the rack to get fouled at the end of regulation on monday? I mean he woulda got fouled or perhaps had a better look than a fade away contested jump shot. Im really just saying this so I can have 75 words, Im not that busted up about it.
Nate; Step our game up
Most games we lose are lost in earlier stages of the game. In these losses I always feel like the team goes away from the hot hand or nate pulls guys/puts in lineups that are just not working. If we are not scoring we are not winning because our defense is bad.
We just played a team without 2 of their top 3 players, 2 players that are among the best in the world at their position. Greg Popovich is a good coach, he is probably a top 2 coach in the league at this moment. He takes guys like, well actually I cant remember any of their names but guys like that, and completely shuts down one of the most efficient offensive teams in the league. Its not like they have outstanding defensive players, it was the coaching that made them have outstanding team defense.
Portland repeatedly lets opposing teams shoot a very high percentage. You cannot tell me that the lineup the spurs put on the floor tonight has more talented defensive players than ours does. (Im not saying that we have the greatest defensive talents, but they should be better than the lineup the spurs had out there.) Yet they made us look pretty bad going against basically their second unit.
Now im not saying this game could have been won by just inserting bayless or playing parker a different way, but I think there could be some better coaching done for our team. I dont think Nate is a terrible coach, actually he could be considered one of the top 4th quarter coaches in the league. He could make better decisions early in games, come out with better gameplans, and make sure to recognize what is working and make the team realize and execute that.
You could chalk this game up to just a poor performance against a top team in the league. Problem is, we seem to have a lot of these and I think this has to do with the coaching too. A coach should be able to motivate his team, inspire them, set them up to be successful, and show them how they are going to win a game.
In half of our games Nates inability to do this is often covered up by the crowd at the Rose garden. On the road there seems to be a trend that we cannot get up to play with the top teams. We have the talent, albeit young, to do this, we just need our coach to step up our game.

Clutch shooting. How clutch are your favorite blazers when it comes to game winning shots?
So I was reading the Celtics blog about how Kobe isnt as clutch of a shooter as people give him credit for and the link they provided to 82games.com showed some pretty interesting stats for our blazers, especially travis outlaw who hits a crazy high percentage of his game winning shots.
The whole article is pretty interesting so give it a look see. They also have links to overall clutch 4th quarter/overtime play.
