    So if we lose this game, you guys would be cool with that, right? After that epic game last night, the Blazers are going to be dead tired. I wouldn't blame them if they don't have the energy to beat the Pels.

    Fuck that. Tonight is a night where you come out with pure adrenaline and make a statement. "We are the blazers, and we are most deffinitely for real, bitches!"

    I expect will the thrill and trob to feed energy to the entire roster.

    What the fuck guys? Throw in the towel 12 hours before game time? We are a young hungry team. We dont need to take games off to ice our knees like the spurs.

    Someone else will have to step up other than Lillard and LA tonight.

    NO is going to feed Davis and hope LA is too tired to keep up.

    Want last night's game to really count in the playoff race? Win this one and send a message that regardless of circumstance, we're simply better than teams like New Orleans.

    Hear hear! And maybe do it in a dominating fashion. I think if we start biting at the heels of Golden State and Memphis, they will slip up.

    Thanks. I am so happy to be here! I am also guessing Pelicans will be in alternate reds, Portland maybe in whites or black. Christmas theme.

    10 years ago did pops sit timmy just to rest? i realize we are trying to emulate spurs system but we arent that old yet. why would you fight through that game last night and then lay down and take a loss tonight?

    not saying to emulate anybody, but it might give us the best chance to win while conserving the guys in the middle of a 4 game in 5 night road trip.
