Ira and I were lucky enough to get some tickets to the Boston game that took place last night at the Rose Garden. Thanks Jenny for the tics! This was an astounding win for our young Trailblazers who were without my main man, AllStar Brandon Roy. The first two & half quarters it seemed hopeless for the guys but they were able to linger around, thanks to Steve Blake and his amazingness! Lamarcus wasn't playing very well at first, I think Garnett is really hard on him (pause.)

Birds Eye View of the game! Not great seats but not bad, I have eagle eye vision.



The play of the game that turned the Blazers play around came from Travis BLACKOUT Outlaw bamming on the Celtics after a Lamarcus Aldridge miss. Aldridge would go for 10 points in the fourth quarter and shoved KG in the head after KG gave him a little chin music during a dead ball. Both received technical fouls.



All in all it was a fun ass game and everybody afterwards hootin & hollerin slapping Hi-Fives with each other and yelling visciously at Celtics fans, it was awesome. Finally Ira gets to experience a Blazers victory in person!

So, by now you may know that we here at the B.O.P. consider ourselves somewhat athletic. If you didn't, now you do. We happen across a basketball court from time to time and hand out more Ls than we receive, so we like to consider ourselves experts on the topic. Since most of our jobs relate to basketball in some way, we spend a lot of time watching, playing, and thinking about it, and yesterday was one of those days. I was doing some "research" at work and stumbled upon these amazing images, which would seem humanly impossible to most.

Travis Outlaw

And this one for Cam . . .

Candace Parker

And, now, for some moving pictures:

Sure James "Flight" White misses this oop, but it was way up there!
