    I bet you they play now. I don't think they want to have a losing streak on their hands and I think they want to get a lot of reps in and figure out their team dynamic. I guess we'll see tomorrow.

    and of course LaFlop has to cry that he was fouled.
    but yes, that was an impressive dunk.

    I hope he and Luka play tonight.

    Should have watched the game. Lakers were down a bunch and ‘Bron just absolutely took over. UNREAL! Hornets had no clue what to do. But boy LaMelo schooled Luka a couple times down the stretch. Great game actually,

    First and foremost, my concern is beating the Lakers - so to that end, great. But this continues to make the NBA product suck - marquee opponent with two of the biggest names in the league - and instead we're watching the Austin Reeves show.

    Is it just @THE HCP or do our Blazers seem to play a lot of teams missing their key players?

    And given what happened against the Wolves with Edwards and Randle out, I have to assume Reaves will probably put up a 40-point triple-double tonight...

    Imagine being a Laker fan.

    Then imagine getting swindled for 3-4x the ticket value to see no LeBron ot Luka.

    They deserve it for being a Laker fan in Portland.

    Luka and Lebron both out.

    This was entirely predictable. I hope some of the season ticket holders in this place made a pretty penny on reselling their tix tonight.
