Blake is going to have plenty of opportunities to hit the cutters in the paint when he has the ball in the post. Every single defensive player is just staring right at him when he gets the ball.

Pretty bad defense this half. To say the least.

Can we not defend on the road or something?

Very disappointed to not be up at half. Blazers got way too many easy buckets and open looks.

Down 5 at the half, not happy with the effort in the second quarter

hate when baron dribbles for 20-22 seconds then chucks up a desperation 3

F*** is this frustrating. Seems like they were scoring on every offensive possession.

We started out strong, but really played uninspiring ball after we got that 10 point lead.

Ugh. We've been outscored 53-34 since the start. Our defense has been poor. We haven't rebounded as well as we should. They're getting good looks and they're making us work hard for every single basket.

need more length

Also, it seems like EJ and BD's play tailed off after that initial run.

Got to give Blazers some credit. These guys remind me of the Rockets when they went on that 22 game win streak. Nobody on their roster pops out at you (maybe Aldridge), but they always seem to play hard and pull out wins.

But we're definitely making it easier for them with our bad defense and bad shot selection. We need to make major adjustments if we want to turn this around.

terrible 2nd quarter, a lot of turnovers

TheNewEra · Post #135 » by **TheNewEra** » Fri Jan 21, 2011 4:58 am

Can't let them get to far ahead

we need to protect our basket more

Being down 5 isn't a bad place to be right now considering Griffin is 3 of 10 shooting. If he can pick it up and the Clippers can stop making Wesley Matthews look like Kobe then the second half should be better for LA.

Just the start we needed...

I can't stand the stupid turnovers. Take care of the ball!

Down 9 early in the second half
