    I can't wait! I hope they lose tonight and we destroy them while they are healthy!

    Did we just get some respect from Miami?

    LMMFAO. They're scurd and upset they aren't getting enough attention. Cheap notoriety if they win in Portland, as the media will talk about this as THE quintessential defining game for Portland being a contender or not, and make way, way, way too much of ONE game.

    I would be pissed if I'm Sacramento, Heat think they can play scrubs and still get an easy victory.

    It'll be nice to see how we match up with Wade and LeBron. Wade is quietly having an awesome season. Sitting him out of all back to backs seems like its really paying dividends.

    I'd be pissed because the Heat game will be one of very few sellouts in Sacramento this year, and the MVP is sitting out the game for rest on his yearly trip to Sacto.

    The MVP is sitting out? Lebron is the MVP. He's not one of the guys listed as not playing.

    It might be the opposite, without Wade and Allen I could see LeBron deciding to score 50.

    Oh, missed that one. It was only in the title of the thread. I retract what I posted!

    It'll be a small blip for us whether we win or lose when it comes to the media... they'll talk about how Miami is faltering, or something along those lines.

    I have really begun to not care what the media says. They have their agenda... the only way to sway it is to keep winning. But it really doesn't matter.

    Miami started out 25 points to 8 for Sac. Yikes.

    Sac and Miami going to OT! Kings up 5. Serves them right for sitting their players. LBJ is playing a lot of minutes.

    Boom! Heat go down in Sacremento! If they rested Wade and Allen just for the Blazer game, they didn't gain much did they? James and Chalmers played 44 minutes.

    We really need to blow them out. Only lbj is the Blazer killer. I would love for our team to win handedly tomorrow. We ensure that we will be no worse than .500 on this brutal 4 games in 5 nights.

    He hurt his groin having to carry the load, they sit Ray-Ray, D-Wade and Birdman and they lose in Sac-town. That isn't how you do it. You sit Duncan, Parker and Ginobili and win @ Golden State.

    Well crap, this ending of 2013 schedule is turning out to be very anticlimatic. No Westbrook for OKC games and either no LBJ or a hobbled LBJ...... More reasons to over look Blazer wins, assuming we win of course.
