game or we just started and that was a titanic game that was
that was unbelievable and they were great individual performances
I'll aldridge of course and Lillard
Aldridge gets 46 and 18 4618 in a playoff game
he hit two 3-pointers one of which was just crazy outta
possession alright I'll Adrian DNA just he did overtime
at a critical point with the rocket scored the first six points over time
and then that cut it to three and then they blazes gotta stop
and then but to not a pass from Aldridge I think was from always got three of a
sudden we're at 112 want what
on hit two threes he made three this season
he hit two in this playoff game at 4618
Lillard had 30 the last time teammates
had 45 and 13 harlem getting an NBA playoff game
I scottie pippin Michael Jordan Scottie Pippin Michael Jordan so it was a
significant accomplishment on
and just an intense game with that you know with
with both I love that because the the Hackensack
philosophy worked and didn't work
simultaneously arm there were a couple moments where
Dwight Howard clearly traveled and then
but they were fouling him literally every time so what time he took like
home straps a meanie just doing what I mean literally
he walked and then you see it but then on the replay you see that Lopez
had just two lupus is seven feet tall had a couple of fingers resting on your
shoulder was pulling up so I think in the end
they probably made the right call action that play I thought littler got it from
behind
I put his leg in a cast on board so that's to me as you can see there with
him but but Lopez also
basketball tonight or tomorrow but everything but the NBA that they're
actually fairly consistent on the Travel
they don't know call the travel if you take for maybe 15 is that sometimes
is you know if it leads to he was not going to a basketball writer jack
he was just wondering yeah it was a but they but they're actually incredibly
quick to blow the whistle
if he's the few pick up a pic but billion we start trouble yet to write
your
so that so there that's a little odd but I am I want to talk about
the Rockets mean the really blew it a golden opportunity here and Leavenworth
four minutes to play it up six and oh yeah
and that's like a castration lack of depression intensity
I am and i actually blame James Harden more than anyone else
1828 James Harden best that's awful and the shot selection and the leadership
that he displayed on the structures horrendous
ISO have also the last shot that he took those
kuralt word play that lacked any urgency he kinda like dribbled out at an awkward
spot get to the post in any
stood tall and we're like three seconds two seconds I thought
is human gonna shoot yeah he's not even 8 you got down there I thought oh nice
job by the Blazers to the head the blazes in a bad and I like the Blazers
and I thought oh great they've played good D but he's gonna have to dismiss I
hope we don't get burned by
Chandler Parsons on an open 3 right but he was just like me
32 me I just turn around and he even at almost one hand but it was a terrible
shot at
very very difficult shot and left no time
for I'm not back yet for nothing I mean there were just that
and the passion or even more was that position before when he took that quick
three
many missed it that was not a three they too can read them
he was he was it does liberal crowd it was just the whole planet
battling yeah a terrible 3 down the stretch also
parses of I marash up our city was good he is the major
yeah it was open I am but II hate to play the NBA teams Ron
I know why they do it so you get them you give the ball to your money player
and these Tom Priddis got to go do something
and to me that really distinguishes
the really good coaches from the bad ones or the mediocre ones because he
should have a set play comes out
and should have a second play the go to the first place stop by the defense
but this does get together because I just go do it
I hate that play I mean especially is it was like that word lid was playing well
and
open overtime is where a lot about as kids we get that he wasn't a basket
hiccup of my shots
them they had their bye they're talented players to have Parsons is also I think
very very good
they have Howard and very hard to just hold the ball
and it paid off or shot just think he should have an online given
let them create a mean he I don't in general cuz he's created
he was not creative on that play and they just took you to create but
a police you know the game a screen or something to work with yeah and and
something and and he needs to get that shot off with the chance for I think
some sort of tap into Portland gets the ball
one second left in call time out so be it but but i i it was clearly not a good
shot in Chigwell he was 8 of 28
about I think to crack myself I think Howard Howard out at howard got out that
point is not like other guys
that cat tip the ball so um a I was the one thing because
about Lillard because although it was Aldridge's game and he was
starlet was so great and there was this Patrick Beverley is this intense
defensive player a good defensive player took a great
char took great offense if Al at midcourt on aldrich
the balance out the game was the right call the act that was that bad bad pick
that he did not get said that all she gets at all
and largest getting a basket is just so good he explodes through
and he got past beverley in Beverly came back and cleanly strip tube almost got
the steal one out about about the late replay
was a great play and you thought I am Portland at that point was down to
man they need a bucket and so they come in and Aldridge is fouled out
yep and they come back to learn is like I am going right at it again and he went
by really anywhere baseline
he put it and he got fouled and one hit the free throw the next time down
he goes to the hoop again got fouled made in both again
he just like there was just a fearlessness like area like I got real
estat about I'm going right back at him
five seconds later Liz and also you're so please from
those shots were good clean just knew he had missed them
I does a good shots because sometimes you see players he looked rattled
out that they take bad shots I mean he was he was smoooooth
holy control annually second-year player so
resolutely it was his playoff coming out yet and they have a nice team and
they're fun to watch
a game a tour that series at Houston on ones that look I thought borland as late
as in that series
anyway on and now they clearly do
I think and a so we'll see a game to 11 Sep
ok
