Gonna have some fun tonight. Just been way too busy this year to make games. This was a good one to get to. I have only seen Griffin play once live. It was playoffs and he was not playing well due to injury.

Hope they get a win, mostly for my enjoyment, but I hope you enjoy it too. Heh

Just Win Baby!

So i guess Fluffy is playing down there also at the Coliseum. Gonna have to get down there early for a parking spot.

We also thought we had a dream matchup last year and look what happened.

Who thought we had a dream matchup? Pelicans only won one less game than us and even if we won, we were in the GS side of the bracket.

The blazers will win

This is the best way to start as a new poster.

Tunchi?

I believe we clinch playoffs with a win if Kings lose. Earliest we’ve clinched playoffs in awhile I think.

This is going to be a total slobber knocker BAH GAWD! My biggest concern is Griffin....he totally owns us whenever we play him. I don't see that changing anytime soon....especially not with Aminu guarding him.

It will be important for our Bigs.....namely Nurk and Collins.....to stay out of foul trouble against Drummond and Griffin. Especially Collins.....I can see him getting into foul trouble pretty quickly against these two; whichever one he's guarding.

Go Blazers.

We'd be up 10 games with 10 to play for both teams but we wouldn't clinch. We still play them once more. The winner wins the head to head. There is also the possibility of other teams tying with us too which would not be good for us in terms of tie breakers. Our magic number for a playoff spot appears to be 3. If we win and the Kings lose we'd still need one more win or one more Kings loss.

Oh great....Patchulia is playing tonight. Look out for injuries.

 

[Chris Craig]

Griffin/Drummond going to hurt. Nurk can't have stupid fouls tonight. Aminu needs to play some amazing defense

Do you know what kind goes into the formula for this?

 

[BonesJones]

Do you know what kind goes into the formula for this?

No idea. I think its a combination of record, opponent record, rSOS (Including home/away), etc.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Yay Layman's our shooting guard again.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Excellent way to start that game, good pass Moe!

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

If they're going to start a PF at SG they should take advantage of the mismatch on offense, Jake should be able to shoot over the top of most SG's pretty easily.

 

[Labinot41]

They are trapping Lillard all the time

We should tie you to a post for a year.
Then light a match.
