Game Thread GAME# 41: CAVALIERS @ BLAZERS - JANUARY 11, 2017 - WEDNESDAY, 7:30 PM (PDT), ESPN & KGW

3 hours of sleep!!!!! Screw all of you!

It's BS that this game is happening tonight.

We have police, fire, rescue, PBOT, ODOT, tow truck drivers working nonstop for over 24hrs to keep people safe. The mayor of Portland has declared a state of emergency and has asked people to stay home. Now instead of allowing some of the people who have been keeping us safe go and grab a hot meal, to catch a nap or to even check on their own families they now have to worry about an unknown number of people showing up to a not that important sporting event. This is wrong. In reading between the lines this is something that the NBA is forcing to happen, not the Blazers.

If you're going to the game tonight be safe but also be courteous. It's been a long 24hrs.

i really do wonder what the plan is, player wise. Will Stotts actually play his regular rotation? I bet he will but I want him to "pop" this game so bad.

They should just start selling tickets to anyone who can get to the game for $10. Offer those up to the first 5000 people and help fill the joint.

I called and asked for the least expensive ticket option ... Their answer "$48.50" ... You gotta be kidding me! Also, no SRO tickets offered either!

Absolute BS. I get that it's the Cavs but given the circumstances, I'm betting there will be many empty seats. Maybe it's best they are keeping the prices so high so people will stay home and watch on TV.

Flex pricing!

It will be interesting to see how the team handles the exchanges. Will they exchange for same dollar value or for Nugget and Pelican games?

Was thinking the same thing. They charge way more for Cavs tix so exchanging them for a game against a scrub team isn't equal value. Also, what if you are a season ticket holder? How do you exchange it for a game later that you already have tickets for?

I'm sure they'll credit the STH accounts with the dollar amount of the game so they can buy more $12 beers.

So you go to the Nets game on a Tuesday night and get a free beer to make up the difference. That sounds about right.

[julius]

honestly, you could tell me that was any other home game of the year and it wouldn't surprise me. We've become a late arriving crowd. Tonight the fans just have a valid excuse.

 

[Strenuus]

LOL it's so quiet. I kind of like it.

 

[Strenuus]

It's cute... they sound like they are piping in sound. LUL.
