Re: Blazers Talk
Having Blake back has turned this team around. This road test will be tough though.

Re: Blazers Talk
Yeah, hopefully the Blazers can manage to get a split against Houston and San Antonio, then take care of business against Minnesota. A 2-1 road trip would do the trick.UOducksTK1 wrote:Having Blake back has turned this team around. This road test will be tough though.

Re: Blazers Talk
i think blazers could win at Houston then maybe lose or win by few points against Spurs then win big at Minnestoa.

Re: Blazers Talk
Blazers can't keep falling behind by such large margins on the road and expect to win.

Re: Blazers Talk
Losing by 4 to Houston on the road is acceptable.. But we played so poorly early on.

I know they didn't have Tmac, but he's out for a while so we don't have to worry about him.chump01284 wrote:we cant afford to lose on road against playoff teams. that will hurt us in playoffs
We didn't have Oden, and that could have been the difference.

Re: Blazers Talk
Yeah, this is getting ridiculous. The Blazers are like a broken record on the road.....the exact same thing happens every time. They fall way behind, rely on a frantic comeback at the end and the majority of the time it comes up short. The Blazers are now 1-11 on the road against the top 9 teams in the Western Conference.duckgrad99 wrote:Blazers looked pretty bad tonight against a Spurs team missing Duncan and Ginobli.

Re: Blazers Talk
We should have won today. We shoot piss poor on the road.
TP had a party on us. Very hard game to watch.

Re: Blazers Talk
It sure would be nice if we would show up in the 3rd quarter on occasion.

Re: Blazers Talk
The Blazers really showed their potential in the first half against the Spurs. It is too bad they can't play like that from time to time against good teams on the road. It was a big win though.......every game from here on out is going to be big.
