Gameday Thread: Washington Wizards vs. Portland Trail Blazers

NOTE: LaMarcus Aldridge IS PLAYING tonight despite injury. Buckle up, everyone.

Welcome to the Gameday Open Thread at Blazer’s Edge! This is a place to hang out and enjoy tonight’s festivities with your fellow fans. Treat it as if you’re watching a game at the local watering hole, but hopefully without the language. Expect some disagreements, and a fair amount of changing emotions. But we'll get through it together.

Injury update: Get comfortable.

- Robin Lopez (fractured hand) is out for at least a week or two more.
- Joel Freeland (shoulder sprain) is also out for at least another week or two.
- Nicolas Batum (wrist, etc) is out with a return date to be determined.
- Chris Kaman (leg) is questionable.

As noted above, LaMarcus Aldridge has an injured thumb, and is supposed to be out for 6-8 weeks, but is playing tonight.
