jopoc Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 Yup a win for a Portland team missing its two key players over a complete Magic team. Last time I checked, the Magic are 4th place in the East and second in their division to Atlanta. but isnt it that what you are preaching is that regular season wins dont count? Yup regular season wins don't count. complete or incomplete line-up, a win is a win. a lost is a lost. yes, the magic lost to the blazers, they are on a slump now. but it does not change the fact that they also won against the blazers, it is 1 all for them, not 0-3.

We're talking of this particular game. I was just saying that it's a shame for the Magic to lose this game to a team missing two key players. Did I mention the playoffs here? The fact of the matter is the Magic lost to a much weaker team in this game. Shame on them. Edited January 18, 2010 by megalodon Quote Link to comment

Shame on them. the blazers is not a MUCH weaker team. they are winning despite the injuries (they are 5th in the west). it is nothing to be ashamed of, its not like the magic lost to the clippers or warriors. no excuses, magic lost to the blazers. but nothing to be ashamed of. the blazers is a good team, unlike the clippers or warriors.

Yes, the Blazers are not a weak team when they're complete. I guess you didn't take note of the phrase "in this game". Haha! What's the significance of the Clippers and Warriors? We're talking of the Magic getting lambasted by an undermanned Blazer team and you're talking about the Clippers and Warriors. Let's not get out of topic here. Stick to the topic.

darksoulriver Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 (edited) the blazer is not a good team when u pull out some of its Superstars due to injury! if one players thought he's ok make sure he's 100% OK!

Let's not get out of topic here. Stick to the topic. just saying that the clippers and the warriors are the MUCH weaker team. the blazers, despite the injuries, cannot be considered as a MUCH weaker team since they always find a way to win. you can call the blazers a much weaker team if they are not 5th in the west, and not above .500 like the clips and the warriors. i will agree with you that it is a shame for the magic lost to the blazers should they have records like that of the clippers and the warriors. whether the line-up is complete or not is not an issue nor an excuse. i made my point already. the magic lost to the talented blazers. there is no excuse to that, but for me, it is nothing to be ashamed of since the blazers is really good, unlike the clippers and the warriors. i dont care if you will agree with me or not. i have nothing more to say.

You can stop making conclusions that the undermanned Blazers were good and talented in that game just coz they dismantled the Magic. The fact is they clobbered the Magic without 2 key players.

The fact is they clobbered the Magic without 2 key players. ok, the blazers are a good team for winning 1 GAME over orlando despite losing 2 key players. big deal. i think it is more of orlando giving them the win. like i said before, the team is slumping right now. anyway, it is still 1 all for the magic and the blazers (not 0-3), and the blazers is a strong playoffs contender (unlike the clips and the warriors) congrats to the blazers for that 1 win. :thumbsupsmiley: Quote Link to comment

So you're discrediting what the other Blazers like Martell Webster did? Bottomline, the Magic lost against a weaker team in that game. Edited January 18, 2010 by megalodon Quote Link to comment
Mild Seven Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 (edited) you got to hand it to the blazers....i love their resiliency....to think they have lost some key players....they still have found ways to win as of late. Edited January 18, 2010 by mild seven Quote Link to comment

SkyBear Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Word has it that Roy will play against the 76ers. This is going to be a fun match-up - Roy v. Iverson. Quote Link to comment
vexy9 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 a win again by the Blazers against Sixers! :thumbsupsmiley: even w/o their franchise player, Brandon Roy! :cool: Quote Link to comment

If Oden and Roy were healthy, they'd give the Lakers fits in the playoffs. Perhaps even upset them. Quote Link to comment
