I don't like that play by Jarrett to end the quarter. I know he's a specialist at taking hits, and he got the call, but 9 times out of 10 that won't be called. Certainly not against an elite team.

It's no wonder Al Jefferson gets so many touches. Look at his teammates! There isn't a single player, literally, that would start for our club

Nice win by the Blazers...

Took Minny's best shot in the 3rd, but still held on to win it.

Even though it's a moot point now, I can still hear Portland fans groaning that we took Telfair over Al Jefferson.

That was pretty unexciting. I feel for MIN fans cuz we have been there done that the last few years. If you had some kind've offense going I dunno what I was watching.

The Curse of Sebastian Telfair.

We couldn't buy a bucket in the second half. A win is a win, but we played like crap, mainly due to our shots just not falling. We should be crushing teams like Minnesota.

Yea, he is the voice of the vikings. He does a morning show called PA and Dubay

He is very entertaining.

I was never upset that at that decision, the one that still hurts for me is Nash passing on Chris Paul in favour of Telfair. :banghead:

Obviously Jefferson is far superior to Telfair but we would just have another situation like Zach Randolph. Going into double/tripple teams, forcing shots, shooting under 50%, big numbers in losses and doesn't make his teammates better.
