** Official Suns vs. Blazers Playoff Series Thread (2-2) Game 5 TNT

[heemsta]

some really bad calls in this game

 

[samb]

The Blazers played a great game all around today. Props to Aldridge, Bayless, Juwan Howard, and Batum. Also to Roy for coming out and playing in this important game 4. On to the next one in PHX

[noskey]

Neither of the flagrants were called right imo. Both just hard fouls.


GREAT win by the Blazers though. Needed this win to even think about taking the series

Lets see if we can steal one more down south.

 

[axel f0ley]

this series just got interesting

 

[youngcheezy]

i feel bad for frye he stays getting %!+%!% over by the refs

and @+%+ that french %$+ batum...he and aldridge are pussified

 

[wjun15]

lol @ all these players

Oh, that flagrant on Frye...I think the only reason refs gave him a flagrant was cuz batum has an injured shoulder...there is NO way refs are calling a flagrant on that on any other player...still i dont think it should have been called...same with the bayless flagrant.

 

[vegashustla]

We let Portland stay in the game after they missed 13 straight FG attempts

that & Nash cost us the game with all those stupid @%# turnovers.

 

[xtapolapacetl]

Damn, WTH happened with Nash? He starts the game blazin and doing what he pleases then he goes almost invisible for the rest of the game.

 

[dylanjohnson]

good game, the blazers can win the series if they play this well

 

[raffstylexx]

Great win for Blazers!!! keep it up!!!

 

[brandon3000]

The Blazers came out and put on... Lamarcus and Camby put forth big efforts on both sides of the ball. I can't believe their wingspans helped maintain Nash.

Amare played hard as usual. I'm sure he must be frustrated

Just got back from the game. Great win!!!

When BRoy first checked in... WOW. Loudest ive ever heard the Rose Garden. Just him being at the table fired up the team, he hadnt even checked in yet!

Anyways, great game. Its a new series now, especially w/ Roy back.

Looking forward to Monday.

RIP CITY

Haven't seen him this series. I swear, Amare can be the best player on the floor any night, if he WANTS to be. And sometimes, he looks like he shouldn't even be out there.

 

[samb]

Yea what's wrong with the dominant Amare that showed after the all-star game??? Dude was molesting teams at will. I was expecting him to make the Blazer bigs look like chumps, guess not. Whoever wins tonight win the series

 

[jch3]

I didn't see much of game 4 on Saturday, but major props to Brandon Roy for being as tough as he is. In a day full of pansies and contract years, a guy who is willing to risk himself for the team gets nothing but my respect.

That being said, c'mon Suns. I would have been very surprised to see the Suns take 3 and 4 up in Portland. I know how tough the Garden is. It all stems from that awful Game 1 feat. Andre Miller. The Suns win that, lose game 3 or 4 and close this out in 5. Instead, I would be surprised if this thing doesn't go 7. Ultimately, I think the Suns will prevail but looking ahead I am already worried about a possibly well rested Spurs team waiting for the Suns.

 

[hellomarco]

amare should be more physical with camby and aldridge. GIVE US ANOTHER HIGHLIGHT DUNK.

 

[airblaster503]

Terrible officiating so far, getting real touchy with the foul calls so far going against the Blazers.

 

[samb]

These fouls are ridiculous against the Blazers

 

[Majorbread]

looking like Stern doesnt want the blazers in the 2nd round...

 

[noskey]

All these god damn fouls

This is #*%@%%@ ridiculous.

If Crawford wasn't Stern's lapdog, I'd wonder how he still has a job.
