So, the Blazers are losing by double digits tonight at halftime. No big deal.

I know, I know, they're losing. And unless you're in "TANK! WOO!" mode, losing is never fun. But let's be honest here: The Blazers are playing their seventh game on the East Coast. Every team had a full day of rest at home before playing. The Blazers went through a complete meltdown during the trip, and lost two starters and a coach. They're tired. They're drained. And they're playing a really good team that just got thumped at home and had a few days to relax and think about it.

So yeah, we're losing. Relax and enjoy the second half. Maybe the Blazers come back? Maybe they don't. But they'll finally get some rest and recovery soon. We can start ours now. -- Tim
