Marang has us losing to Lakers??? Anything possible but 3-2 is more likely than 0-5.

It was a weird statement he made about them playing teams that are all capable of beating the Blazers. Then he said. there is a possibility they could lose all the rest of their games.
I shook my head and turned the channel until the game started.

It's why i tagged him to the original comment. Hoping he would get on here and explain himself.
 
To me Chief is worth every bit as much as we pay Meyers and Mo....I voted 11mil....he's played here on the cheap for a long time now and I think he should get paid at least as much as those two guys. That being said I think it would be for 2 years and not 4...I think we'll see more 2 year deals than 4 year deals as young as we are.

Very low likelihood of us matching up vs SA or OKC. They aren't climbing out of 7 and we have a really low probability of getting to #2. Look to Utah or Clips.

Yeah I know. But I saw that road record and it made me wish.

But without Nurk, it doesn't really matter lol.

To be honest that game does scare me. It is the Laker's last game of the season and at home. Laker fans who never get a chance to actually go to a home game will get a chance to fill the arena. It won't be the normal celebrity crowd and it could be loud.

They will be coming off a stretch where they probably will lose 4 in row. But look at the box score of their last two wins. They still have players who have pride and have nothing to lose. Rondo, McGee, Calwell-Pope, Bullock, Stevenson.......If the Blazers go into thinking it will be easy they will get beat. Kind of like Philly last night getting their asses kicked in Dallas without Luka. It just took one bad quarter.

Conley will play. He played Saturday and went for 33 points.
He will have 3 1/2 days to rest his "sore" ankle and be ready to torment us as usual.

We can all rest easy that Stotts will make adjustments for this game after Conley REPEATEDLY torched us on the same play last time. Over and over and over and over and over.....

We've already blown 2 games to this garbage team - blow them out early this time.

How handy just one of those games in the win column would be right now.

Hopefully that game will not mean anything to the Blazers as well and they are resting players.

I think it shows just how much of a load is on Embiid's shoulders.
Simmons is cool and all, gets numbers.
But without Embiid Philly is prolly an 8th seed at best.
Even with Harris/Butler/Simmons.

Not quite, we'd be up 3 with 4 games left so technically they'd still be able to finish a game up on us.

Are you sure? If Clips win out, that means UTAH and HOU will drop a spot too, so Utah is likely to drop to 6.

Jazz still have 5 games so even if they lose to the Clippers they could still finish with 51 wins. We could still only get to 50 with a win tonight.

How about this? We seal at least #5 if we win tonight and HOU beats LAC. Think that one works.

Yes, that works BUT we aren't going to fall to 6th so I'd much rather have the Clippers win.

But Meyers and Moe aren’t worth $10M themselves. If they were Meyers probably would’ve been traded by now.

I think Aminu is worth about 7M per. I’d let him walk if he asked for anything more than $8M.
 
What's the official injury report? I think I saw somebody say Conley is out.

Conley vs. Lillard: A pretty fair head-to-head

I thought it was tres cool that he didn't even blink about not staying out there for the double digit stats but unlike probably any player I've ever watched...Nico probably had the 9 stat seemingly all the frickin' time. Never seemed to pout about it.
