Thanks for posting that. I was just having this conversation earlier today.

The Pacers are looking focused and energized to start the game in Indianapolis.

The Clippers look a step slow.

Season-high 42 points for the Pacers in the first quarter.

You know what would be awesome?

A tanking thread for discussion of those who believe the Blazers are/should be tanking, and use this thread for discussion of making and succeeding in the playin/playoffs.

But I want us to make the play-in and THEN tank, and I would be excluded from that!

Cling Kong is a budding franchise cornerstone.

He's certainly large and heavy.

if Portland isn't focused (like last night), they could slip back down to 10th seed. They are only 1/2 game ahead of the Warriors. Blazers don't want to have to play at Golden State with a healthy Curry

Unless they want to keep their draft pick.

I don't think it matters much. Just my opinion on it but they don't seem like a team that will make it out of the play in.

there is that. I made the mistake of guarded optimism when I knew better. Won't happen again

The Blazers have earned the playoffs.

no...they've earned the play-in. 1-6 seeds have earned the playoffs.
