Butterflies! Go blazers, kick some grizzly ass!

 

[KingSpeed]

The Portland broadcast just filmed me entering the building. Will some post a picture of it if they air it and post here?

So, is the game still on KGW? My guide doesn't have it.

yes

Comcast programming has been slacking here of late.

 

[KingSpeed]

According to scoreboard, CJ is starting.

 

[KingSpeed]

Conley and Allen "are going to give it a go."

 

[maxiep]

Best thing our backcourt can do is to run Conley and Allen around the court and into screens. If they're not 100%, they'll degrade faster than if they were healthy.

 

[KingSpeed]

Both teams have 3 All Stars: Dame/LMA/Kaman and Carter/ZBo/Gasol

Good call. Make them work.

I'm not surprised at all. I don't really know why people thought they wouldn't play?

 

[maxiep]

I actually scheduled a legal call starting at halftime. I guess that shows how confident I am in this game...

If we were healthy, I think we're flat-out a better team than Memphis. However, we are not even close. Therefore, I stand by my Memphis in 5 prediction. The fan in me hopes I'm wrong.

They must've stopped drinking like fishes.

You're struggling to let this one go aren't ya?

Not so much not letting it go as making fun of it because it was such horse shit.

Can anyone Confirm/Deny the game is actually on KGW?
Cause my TV guide says at 5 it's the news.

Really hope I don't have to watch TNT.

It is on kgw... But why believe us when you can change the channel and see for yourself!?

 

[KingSpeed]

Ok. No panicking if Grizzlies get big lead. We came back from 13 point 4th quarter deficit in Game 1 last year. Let's stay positive no matter what.

The Blazers came back against Houston last year in game one. Granted, The Rockets are not the defensive team this Grizzlies team is.

I know we didn't win, but we definitely came back and made a game when Memphis had a double digit lead this season

[Draco]

Go Blazers!

Let's not get down big, let's show them we mean business!

 

[BigGameDamian]

Maybe Stotts saw my post about slowing down Vince Carter?

 

[EGame]

I like CJ and he deserves all the minutes in the world, but I can't help but think we have no one off the bench to score with the possible exception of Kaman...
