I would love to go, but it's not in the cards this year. The last game I was at was the 4th quarter Broy miracle against the Mavs. Still remember that game like it was last week, the Rose Garden was off the hook that day, and I'm sure it will be rockin just as hard on Friday night!

It's a pick your poison scenario with both squads. Dallas is arguably playing their best ball of the season. They've stepped up their D, Dirk is playing out of his mind and Monta has killed the Blazers year after year after year.

Then you've got the Spurs who've just got years and years of championship experience, they've got 3pt shooters who've killed the Blazers all year long and the best coach in the league.

Having home court against Dallas would be a decidedly nice advantage though.

All this being said, lets not get too ahead of ourselves here. It's still a best of 4 series, not best of 2. Sure makes me wish the 1st Round was still a 5 game series. The Blazers definitely have a tight grip on this series, but it's not done until its done.

Just because the Blazers are up 2-0, I'm not going to overlook the Rockets like they overlooked Portland going into this series. They're still a strong team that's capable of winning a game in Portland.


Dallas, like Houston, does not have anyone to put on Aldridge. Spurs have a guy named Tim Duncan, and I hear he is known for playing a little defense, even as an old man.

A girl I was seeing at the time took me to a small irish pub I liked a lot and bought me drinks to watch that game. That game was just amazing!

Anyway much as I would love to be at the rose garden for game three alas I won't be...

I don't have tomorrow night's game on my half season package but I hope the Blazers do
what the OKC Thunder and GSW do in giving away T-shirts for the crowd to wear.

Nothing like everybody in the crowd wearing Red.

Which I've never seen before, so plus 1 for originality.

I would much rather a t shirt though. Free shirts are one of the most wonderful things :D

I just like making the arena the same color, i got a free shirt a couple of times, too big or too small usually.

One of the teams (can't remember who) does two colors. One section is one color, the next section is the other color and it just rotates throughout the arena. The Blazers could do that with Red, Whilte & Black.

Then I could sit courtside next to Oden2 in my RealGM T-Shirt I got this winter. WooT!!!

I used to agree, but it seems like you see it everywhere now and it's kind of lost its effect. Aren't the glow in the dark sticks "thunderstick." It could be interesting and definitely loud.
