sorry, that was my first firsting
or actually my first fisting, since I tried to type too fast, missed the R and ended up fisting instead of firsting.
well, was it good for you?
Q: Do you feel the city of Portland still wants you?
A: I know this team does, the organization does. Everybody else, I don't worry about that. We worry about our family right here (in the locker room). I know I got their back and I know they're behind me.

Don't you know the rule?
When a “first” post contains a typo, it’s invalid. Therefore, my post was first.
Too bad: better luck next time.

What do you have against Robots?
So you’ll murder a robot, but not honor their memory by wearing their skin proudly?
You murder them and then hide the best part, the silver shiny flesh?
What is the point aside from quenching your own murderous cravings?
Murdered robots must be honored.
Wear the damn suit the way it should be worn. Display that robo-dermis with pride.
Native Americans always used every last part of the Robots they killed
I hate how our current culture murders Robots only for their antenna, leaving the rest of the corpse to rust in the sun.
It’s a waste. We need to return to our roots!!

Truth is, this game doesn't matter a bit
That’s because if the Blazers win today, they’ll lose the rematch on April 10th. But if they LOSE today, they’ll win the rematch. It’s a fact.
"We don't back down to nobody." --Joel Przybilla
or we could be optimistic
and try and win this one anyway in the hopes of winning both.
Ball Don't Lie
Just call me Ruffin Tumble- Michael Ruffin.
I disagree
This is the tough game, they are rested, they are motivated, and they have (this kills me to say this) very good players. The next game they will be on a back to back and they might have clinched home court throughout the playoffs by then.
Lets win this game because this is our chance to get them at full strength (Bynum and Oden are both out) no excuses.

Everyone that is going to the game tomorrow night...
MAKE IT LOUD.
If you haven’t been to a Blazers vs Fakers game before you need to be prepared. There will be an abnormally high volume of people wearing Purple and Gold. A winning record and a winning history have created a lot of bandwagoners over the years and they will spend their entire months income to watch the Fakers play. Be careful when interacting with these people because many of them are criminals.
Most importantly BE LOUD. This is playoff atmosphere, if your ears aren’t ringing after the game then you must have brought ear plugs. If your voice isn’t gone after the game then you must have a set of lungs like Storm Large.
I wish I could be you, I was unable to get tickets for todays game but I will be at the Faker game in April. Have fun and be safe at the game tomorrow everybody.

L*kers fans are the worst. Should be like a playoff atmosphere tonight meaning everyone will be (and NEEDS to be) loud.
Wouldn’t be surprised to see at least one fight break out in the garden tonight, always happens with the poser fans in town.
to think
my tickets for hte game still haven’t sold yet… sad.
The goal is not to be better, the goal is to be the best.
Just hope Kobe passes is to the sure thing.

"They don't mind him shooting that shot at all. Rudy Fernandez is not that great of a 3pt shooter."
-New Orleans Hornets broadcasters right after a Rudy Fernandez missed 3pter. Rudy Fernandez finished the game with three 3pters on six attempts.
And then hope the Machine goes through a mechanical breakdown like last year's finals vs the celtics.

L*kers? like its a bad word?
Dave? Are we seeiously calling the Lakers the L*kers? We ar not in fifth grade! and the more we call the Lakers the L*kers the less and less the rest of the nba will respect us as fans and the more they will doubt us as contenders! So that being said, lets beat the Lakers at home like we always do!!!
WOW
are you seriously calling out Dave like he’s a fifth grader? Dave’s been spelling it like that as long as I can remember, it’s kinda his shtick, if you will.

Why act like the name "Lakers" strikes fear into our hearts?
In fact, it should be spelled out and laughed at. LA lakes are almost as scarce as jazz in Salt Lake City!
To achieve the same degree of ridiculousness as “the Los Angeles Lakers,” Portland’s team would have to be called “The Portland Palm Trees” or something.

I have to say this somewhere
Denver lost to Sacramento and is now behind us in the standings, at 7th.
Them dropping that game gives me a LOT of hope, they are 3-7 in their last ten, and we need them to drop games like that. In the meantime, Utah has a very, very tough schedule, including lots of road games for a bad road team. We could still very well make a push for one of those top seeds.
Ok, that said, BEAT LA! It’s a whole different ballgame tonight.
We have beat them whenwe were worse, butthey were also worse—except last year, when after the Gasol trade they were playing exceptionally well, and went 27-9 the rest of the season—with, of course, two of those losses being in Portland.
Doesn’t matter how well either of us is playing, it is always intense, and both teams are far better than they have been in any of the previous matchups in recent years. This one should be fun—they just have to bring the D like they did against SA, and not allow themselves to get frustrated on offense, again, like against SA.
BEAT LA!
Now I'm worried ...
my magic 8-ball on my iPhone just said the Blazers were “Not likely” to win.

He has had courtside seats for years and actually seems to care about the team, unlike the majority of their fans who just come to be seen. At least they are better than Dodgers fans, who show up in the third and leave in the sixth.

Portland fans and heckling
One of my main beefs w/Portland fans… we don’t know how to heckle properly. I always hear the typical “hey you suck” or some sign in the crowd that a mom made for the kid… where’s the creativity— my latest heckle (which was alcohol induced I must add) was for the one and only #1 worst official in the NBA Zach Zarba (Violet Palmer is a very close 2nd) “get off your knees ref, you’re blowing the game,” which got the crowd around me up on their feet and trying out their own variations. Tonight with the rapist….errrr Kobe…. in the house we should have plenty of ammunition to try and expand our hateful vernacular and scratch the proverbial surface of Philly-style heckling. What do you say Portland?
Weak stuff
How is "get off your knees ref, you’re blowing the game," creative? That’s been around for years, did you really think that was creative?
................................. And alcohol has been around even longer...
(And they say pot gives one an artificial sense of creativity…)
Pontiff of the Pryz for Prez Posse...
So you want
crass assaults on somebody’s character that would constitute slander if you weren’t a fan at a sporting event?
We’re 26-5 at home — third-best in the whole NBA and second behind the l*kers in the West. Obviously our inability to heckle “properly” isn’t impeding our ability to help the Blazers win games at home. So how about we express our disdain for the l*kers and their hated captain with lustful, non-profane booing…rather than with comments that would make any parent with a child and within earshot cringe.

Actually, getting under the skin of arguably the best player in the league isn't wise
I detest Kobe Bryant with a passion—but I recognize the fact that he’s an incredible basketball player. Guys like Kobe Bryant cruise thru much of the regular season. The best hope for beating their teams is to catch them on a night when their superstar player is sleepwalking. Don’t tug on Superman’s cape.
"We don't back down to nobody." --Joel Przybilla
Kobe will even pretend he's been dissed to get up for a game.
Remember when he deliberately ran into Joel in that one game and then punished the Blazers for it?
Oh yea I remember
He ran into Joel and the refs “gave” Kobe the call. Then he acted like Joel committed some flagrant foul by being in his way. I can still see the look on his face. Grrrr… I cant stand that guy. Worse the refs cave to his antics. Kobe is a big reason anyone might argue the refs are biased to the supposed “superstars.”

Portland doesn't do heckling well
This is a “know who you are” kind of thing. Preppy white kids shouldn’t rap, Oprah shouldn’t give weight loss advice, and Portland fans shouldn’t heckle. We are awesome at many things, but suck at heckling.

Which Blazer team shows up?
The Blazer team that whooped butt on the spurs or the Blazer team that struggled against the T-Wolves. I like gut check games like this but Im not sure which team shows up tonight.
I try to help with everything," Fernandez said. "If the coach says go rebound, I go rebound. I work for the team.
""If I'm playing this game to get media and attention, I shouldn't be here," Aldridge said. "I'm here to play basketball, and do what I can do to help this team win."
Definitely winnable
In the last month, the l*kers have only won two games against good teams (N.O. on Feb 20 and Cleveland on Feb 8). For the most part they are winning against weaker teams. In that same stretch they’ve lost to Utah, Denver (badly), and Phoenix.
LA feels they have something to prove against us. You might even say they are embarrassed at the recent losses here. That’s an interesting predicament. It means LA will be aggressive and dangerous. But it also means we’re in their heads a little.
If Portland hits early and often, and plays defense like they mean it, there is no reason the big bad l*kers walk out with anything other than a loss.
Yes.................... No........................ No.....................
Can the Blazers win tonight? WILL the Blazers win tonight? Do the Blazers HAVE to win tonight?
Pontiff of the Pryz for Prez Posse...
It's hard to go against a four year home winning streak isn't it?
I agree on the last point though. The only reason it would be really important to win tonight is because Denver lost last night and plays Houston tonight so we could gain some distance from them. But Wednesday’s game against Dallas is more of a must win for us I think.
I'd have to agree on that...
But both would be sweet!
If you can't laugh at yourself, everyone else probably is already.
How likely is it that there's a fight tonight?
These teams seem to legitimately dislike eachother. Joel and Odom go at it? LMA and Odom? Why does every matchup have Odom in it?
The one L*ker I could see cheering for is Trevor Ariza. It’s hard to hate a guy who just works hard.

I hate the L*kers
From the LA TIMES ala Jackson in regards to the losing streak In Portland
“I don’t want to talk about that,” Lakers Coach Phil Jackson said Sunday. “It’s been belabored too many years now. It happened before I even started and just continued on here for years. Mark it down to rainy weather, depressing faces.”
OH HELLL NO!!!!!!!!!!!!! \Hey Phil, we all are pretty happy when we beat you down in our house. Only depressing face is your ugly mug..Go Do Some Yoga you old grump

That is priceless
So basically you only have to be depressing, and the Lakers lose all their energy and joy and give up the game? Is that how Boston continually beats you Phil, with their arena in a really depressing neighborhood? Especially when there is bad weather outside? Quick all you owners, move your NBA team to Haiwaii (Kauai) the rainiest place in the US, or Rochester, NY (the snowiest city). Phil and the Lakeshow will hate you.

I have a theory on facial hair
only ugly people have it. Beards look good on the following: Grizzly Adams, Cat Stevens (pre conversion to Islam), and Abe Lincoln. This is why I think both Gasol brothers should rock beards. Have there been an uglier set of humans than the brothers Gasol? They make Tyronne Hill look like a super model.

Gasol the Viking looks like he can party, which I appreciate.
Imagine GTV flipping burgers on a grill and nursing an oversized can of Fosters.
I mean, he’s twice as likable as his narrow-hipped whiner of a brother.
I rock a beard and now I hate you.
But seriously though, for pretty humans like myself, a beard is simply like a peacock’s feathers—just a little something extra to say, “Hey. So I noticed you checking me out. Whadya think of the beard?”
Really though, us beardophiles aren’t all ugly. Just ask our moms. Some of us are gainfully employed, mildly handsome individuals who simply don’t like shaving. Either that or we just need something on our chin to stroke as we listen to flimsy anti-beard arguments/theories, a purpose for which mine is coming in quite handy right now!

Bring on the hate
I once rocked a beard, then I figured out it was because I was in a bad marriage and secretly wanted to look like Black Beard the Pirate. I was muy feo with the rug on my face, so per normal I take my experiences and views and force them upon the rest of the world. I’m like Right wing fundies that way.
All I can say in friendly retort is this: When my girlfriend has an itch on her finger, she doesn’t have the option of running on my face to scratch it. Being an emery board, or 80 grit sand paper, sucks.

If you have the pass you get free food and beverage but in my experience alcoholic beverages are excluded. You can actually sit in the Club Level without having access to all of the amenities provided which is OK too. I’ve been there four or five times and only had the food deal twice. Either way, the seats are good.
there's no so such thing as a free bear...

Roy and Aldridge should at least match Kobe and Gasol production. Even then, anything short of outlaw and fernandez having huge games, would make Blazers victory that much unlikely.

One of the most underrated movies, ever
Too many confuse the horribleness of the sequels with the greatness of the original.
M.
I put Robocop in that category too
The sequels are pure poop (though a kid drug dealing kingpin selling NUKE is cool in the 2nd movie), and cloud people’s memories of the great original movie.
Conan and Robocop are timeless.

Conan the Barbarian an underrated movie? I don't think so.

That Johnny. What a freaking Lakers fan that kid was. The skeleton trick or treat gang was SUCH a Laker fan activity it’s not even funny.
Miyagi on the other hand was CLEARLY a huge BLAZERS fan whilst Daniel San is such a freaking Thunder fan I can’t believe it. I almost rooted against him in some of those situations.
I hate how Daniel San always seems to win on a technicality
I even think in the 3rd movie that Daniel San DID win a technicality, against the Steven Seagal looking bad guy’s team.
What kind of lesson is that? The little guy can fight back against the mean bullies as long as the bullies carelessly violate some superficial rule? They’ll destroy him as soon as he leaves the arena!

because he knew that the evil nephew of his former BFF would swat the crane kick away like a crane fly.
I think the plan was to LET the kick get swatted away. You know, to falsely build up his confidence and what not.
Wasn’t Hillary Swank involved at some point? Never watched that one…
The 4th Karate Kid
AKA The NEW Karate Kid.
She wins by filing a cease and desist order against the bullies.
THE VICTORIES IN THE KARATE KID SERIES BECAME MORE AND MORE HOLLOW WITH EACH NEW ENTRY INTO THE FRANCHISE.
So what will Karate Kid 5 be like then?
Daniel-San gets fired from his gas station attendant position and finds out about a 40 and over karate tournament down at the Y. He figures this will get him back with either Ali, or that chick from Okinawa who dumped him after the first two movies respectively.
Hearing that Miyagi is no longer available (RIP), he decides to go recruit the old Korean guy running the convenience store down the street. Despite his profuse denial of ever having been involved in any martial arts, he agrees to train Daniel-San for a fee of $20.
They proceed to sneak into the 24-Hour Fitness nearby for grueling weekly sessions of 5 minutes on the treadmill and 10 reps of 50 on the bench press, followed by a few hours down at the local pub.
Daniel-San gets beaten in the first round by a leg sweep. He then sneaks backstage, steals the trophy, runs away to Mexico with it and is never heard from again.
Yes! Yes! In the face!
The guy who was playing the kid had a guest appearance in Entourage over an old feud with Drama trying to get into the Playboy mansion

Anyone in attendance...
It is your right, NAY, your DUTY! to yell obscenities at Kobe, Phil, Sasha , Lamar, and every other clown on that god-foresaken franchise.
Someone wondered if people would look at them wierd if they yelled too loud in the Lexus level. Maybe, but if they do, fire back and openly question their allegiance. I will be screaming at my TV as my infant daughter looks at me and wonders “why daddy?”, so do not fret about what quasi- loafer wearing fans think of you.
In my opinion, the louder you yell the more people around you will think it is ok too.

For 29 out of 30 teams this is true...
But the Lakers deserve extra special treatment.
And by obscenities, I dont mean ________ Kobe’s mother, or Lamar you ____________ kittens.
I would probably go with " Sasha, how does it feel to be Kobe’s bag handler" or something in reference to Kobe in Colorado.

Kobe looks like....
He is uncomfortable talking…PERIOD.
Maybe its the fact that he is a rapist, but there is something not right about that guy. Its like he wants everybody to believe he is a nice guy and as cool as Jordan but the reality is that he would be much happier commiting sex crimes all day long.

I don’t mean to ride you for this, but Outlaw possesses none of those characteristics. Just sayin’ that it could be seen as offensive. Sorry to crack on you (no pun intended) but it just doesn’t fit.
I could see it being offensive
but i don’t mean it to be, and i think there is more of a resemblance, but whatever.
by the way i love travis. as frustrating as he can be at times, he still steps up in the clutch for this team more times than not.

I totally agree
We make this game such a big deal, when LA is just approaching it like a tough game.
Well, okay, I live in LA and it’s a bigger game to any Laker fan than I can think of because we’re their soon-to-be equals and rivals, but it’s nowhere near how we get about this game.
One way it is different, even though they had this game circled on their mental game calendars for months now, is that all my Laker friends LIKE the Blazers, because we’re cool and young and awesome. We, obviously, hate the Lakers. If the hate isn’t reciprocal within a year or so, we ain’t doing sumthin’ right (or at least NERVOUS hatred, since that isn’t enough time for us to thwart any Laker dreams).
Laker fans are nervous about this game, and curious to see what happens. They got #1 locked up though, and it’s soooo much more important to us.
And I don’t want it to be more important to us.

A metaphorical plane crash
Isiah Thomas becomes the Lakers GM— OH SNAP he’s a bad GM ya heard the joke here first folks!!!
A week ago I would of said this was a game the Blazer didn't need to win.....
But now with Denver losing last night (to Sacra-frickin’-mento!!) and falling a half game behind the Blazers and Utah being only up a half game (Utah is bound to lose sometime!!!), the Blazers really need this win. Maybe with the weather being so bad today (rain, snow, sun — will it make up it’s mind!!) it will cause a little stiffness of joints in the Lakers (hey, I can hope!). Go Blazers! I know you can do it!!!
Utah will definitely be dropping back over the next month.
They have played substantially fewer road games. And the road has a way of making most teams beatable.
And Utah is much much better at home
than they are on the road. I think that part of this is because Korver’s “stellar” defense is harder to hide whilst on the road

what's wrong with calling him a rapist?
why are you defending him?
by Peteyhasnohead on Mar 9, 2009 2:32 PM PDT up reply actions
If he HAD likely raped her
Or had never raped anyone ever, I’d be okay with it— especially if he had never raped anyone, because then it’s such a random thing to yell at someone that it can’t do anything but confuse him.
I don’t want to derail this thread into this sort of talk. I had read the police reports, the testimony, the evidence submitted, and it seems more likely an already confused girl regretted what she did and then it spiraled out of control.
I am not defending someone, anyone, who is a rapist, I am defending someone being called that just because they were accused of it, especially when the evidence doesn’t point to them raping anyone.
EVEN if they are Kobe.
Make fun of marrying a high school kid while he was in the NBA, how he’ll never get out of Shaq’s shadow, anything besides rape. Seems kinda over the line even to Mortimer.

Skeets: i’ll close it down now … congrats. you bastards
he might still be a monotheist
it’s just that if you pray to God, you might really be praying to Kobe’s god, so goes the line of reasoning
Yea but you need to do something original
I mean rapist he’s probably heard a million times already. When he steps to the line yell something in Italian, or Spanish. That might whip his head.
From the back of Travis Outlaw's Franz card: Travis leads the team in monstrous thunder dunks, wins awards for post game interviews, and often gets extra points for degree of difficulty.
From the back of Greg Oden's Franz card: Nickname: Jaws. Has an insatiable desire to tear rims apart while cruising the open court, and was once interested in using head-gear for his profession.
I don't know about foreign slams
I’d shout out “Hey Kobe! Can I watch your highlights with you after the game?”

I understand ya
And with pretty much anything, I agree. I hate Kobe, he’s weird and a poseur who no one in the NBA likes because he’s a weird poseur.
BUT… the rape stuff kinda goes too far. Wherever the line is, that’s on the other side of it in this sort of situation. That’s like those fans making fun of Steve Kerr’s dad dying, taunting Kerr pre-game, back when Kerr was in college.
Yeah, Kobe is the enemy, and I can’t stand the Lakers. They are evil. But that’s as long as we’re in fun fun sports entertainment land. The rape stuff brings it back to the real world, and is a pretty extreme thing to yell at someone in “fun”.
I fully endorse and support yelling most anything and everything at Kobe, Sasha, Phil Jackson, whoever ya want. Just make it hurtful and/or funny, and not involving rape. Throws everything off, and makes us the bad guys.
I really hope there is not a “rapist” chant tonight. I won’t be surprised if there is. Portland fans are cool, and doing that… just isn’t cool.
I know you agree for the most part, I’m just expanding upon my thoughts.

If we’re still pulling out the rape card after all these years, we’re unoriginal boobs.
It’s both old and classless, which are never a good combo.
I’d rather we made up new felonies he’s accused of instead of harping on old ones. I heard from a friend that Kobe ran over a hobo the other night, and just kept on driving even though he knew he hit someone. Kobe even circled the block to “accidentally” hit the same hobo, just because he’s Kobe.
Then he stole a dirigible and crashed it into a daycare. KOBE MUST BE STOPPED.

Wellllll.... no.

Any suggestions for a good place to watch the game in or near Gresham?
Foolproof way to win this game.
back when the red sox and the yankees were in the ALCS and the yankees were up 3 games and the red sox were holding on by a thread my friends and I started throwing crayons at derek jeter. Sure enough it worked, and the red sox went on to win the world series.
So basically just throw crayons at kobe and we are guaranteed a win.

Q: Do you feel the city of Portland still wants you?
A: I know this team does, the organization does. Everybody else, I don't worry about that. We worry about our family right here (in the locker room). I know I got their back and I know they're behind me.

at one point Giants fans literally threw d cell batteries at the Dodgers when they were in town. Lemme double check that….

Who said I'm a Yankees fan? I only wore the logo cap. Kinda like LeBron does now
I have no special connection or fandom for the Yankees. The best I could come up with is that I once was able to sit in Ralph Lauren’s box for a game against the Orioles when Ripken was still playing, and that was probably my best seats ever. That’s when I got that cap. And I liked to tease some locals.
We just want them to die in a firey car crash all in good fun
And failing that, their entire families and business associates drowning in a pool of acid.
IN FUN, YOU SEE. Good clean fun.

Yankees are the MLB version of the L*kers
Love ’em or hate ’em…. there is no in between!
Blazers win!
Have fun tonight everybody...
if you are going to the game, be loud, please. I’m going to lose my voice at a lousy sports bar in D.C. – the least you can do is the same at the game.
I might get kicked out of said sports bar, too, cold sober. Is it too much to ask that one of you, who have the PRIVILEGE of being there live, drop down on Fauxbe’s head like a mountain lion as he passes through the tunnel onto the court?
I’ll name a child after you if you do

Now THAT would be Epic
In tonights news, an as of yet unnamed Portland Trail Blazer fan attending a basketball game against the Los Angeles L*kers at the Rose Gardon last night , jumped over the rail and landed on top of K*be Briant. Both K*be and his apparent attacker suffered minor injuries from the incident, leaving K*be unable to preform. Reports suggest that many of the witnesses claim the man let out a primal roar, similar to a that of a lion……

I hate to be all realistic
But I fear we are in for a long night. For us to win:
Sergio needs to have a fantastic game with as close to zero turnovers as he can get.
Rudy has to hit better than 50% from 3pt land
Brandon has to get calls
and someone on the second unit has to out hustle Ariza.
I fear once B Roy sits down, the Lakers make a run and hold a 10 pt lead that will see saw all night, but survive none the less.
Golly Gee, I sure hope I didn't huwt anybody's feewings.... sniff...sniff....

My main worry
Is rebounding. Unless guys like Outlaw hit the boards hard tonight we could be in for some serious trouble. Odom is especially scary.
Things happen for a reason they say, but I say there's a reason things happen.
Whether Sergio has 3 turnovers or 0, it doesn't matter
He doesn’t affect the game THAT much, to be the reason we win or lose. He’s just out there soaking up minutes.
Roy does need to get calls, and likely will at home, and LMA needs to come up big to counter Gasol’s production. Most importantly, Blake needs to be ON and we need to REBOUND. If Blake is missing his wide open 3’s, life becomes tougher for everyone else even if Rudy is on fire, because Rudy can’t play as the PG next to Roy.
Rebound, and hit the open shots we USUALLY hit, and we win.
The rest are superfluous additions.
It should be a nice game… the two best offenses in the NBA go head to head, and our defense is usually better for these sort of games (especially at home). It’ll need to be plenty sharp, and I figure it will be. This is that sort of game we seem to win.
We also need to bring 110%.
Ideally while stepping up down the stretch. You forgot that, but the rest of your points are good.

Now THAT'S a good one
I love when “this young team is playing like they have nothing to lose!” turns into “and this inexperienced team is showing its youth now, Doug” (e.g., Warriors two years ago in the playoffs).
People are too hard on announcers generally though. I’ve tried play-by-playing games in my living room with the TV muted and it’s hard as heck. I don’t think anybody could talk for 2 1/2 straight hours, more or less, and not say something that makes them sound like a nincompoop.
by BlazersOrBust on Mar 9, 2009 5:21 PM PDT up reply actions
Is 110% even possible anymore?
We tried that against the Celtics and the NBA said we can’t do that anymore.
Well
I’m tired of being told what to do by The Man. If I were the Blazers, I would kick the NBA in the stomach, give it my foolproof finishing move that nobody kicks out of, give them two middle fingers, then pour beer all over myself while everybody cheered. And you can bet that they’ll be doing it with 110%.

BREAKING NEWS:
This just in:
Kobe will be a game time decision as apparently he jumped over a moving car and landed “funny” on a unwilling young women and now has to limp to the local jewerly store to buy his wife another new ring.
Not to add pressue, but if we win this game we'll be tied for 4th again.

The Hornets just lost to Atlanta, in Atlanta
that is a tough place to win… They play small though, so we match up pretty well with them.
draft dejuan blair
that's going to be a big game
If we win, it sets us up for a 3-2 or even 4-1 road trip. We lose, and we have to battle for a 2-3 trip. We need to get at least the Memphis game and either Indy or Milwaukee.
touch choice
Denver has by far an easier closing schedule than Houston, so I like our chances of beating out Houston more than our chances of beating out Denver. Then again, Denver is in our division…
i think our best hope for home court advantage is to be top in the nw
Truth never was or can be propagated by fire and sword - Albert Gallatin
if you get the 3 seed by winning the NW, and the 6 seed has a better record, the 6 seed gets homecourt
happened a few years ago where Denver won the NW but the Clips had homecourt.
root for Houston
we want Denver to collapse. With their fragile headcases, a losing streak could do them in.
Houston’s tough schedule will hurt them enough for us to possibly overtake them. Denver collapsing would do us a lot of good.
