    Only those two. They were talking about it on NBA.com TV after the game.

    Winnable, yes, but not a gimme. When have the Blazers ever had an easy time playing there, let alone in a back-to-back-to-back situation?

    You say "endurance and depth" as if they are insignificant factors...

    LOL okay cool thanks for the correction. And that is absolutely right. I had Miami and Chicago mixed up. NBA.com T.V. said it was the two best teams in the NBA. I assumed Miami was one of them; from memory.

    I'm saying that the playing 3 games in a row is an extreme situation that has almost zero predictive power as a "test for where we stand." This situation has zero carry-over to the playoffs for instance.

    I think the exchange from the OT about Earth's life got him a little testy on me. :(

    That's what I love about sports. We all may have huge differences on some of the most fundamental questions, but you know we'd all be high-fiving like crazy during a Blazer playoff game. (Or comforting each other with beer, as the case may be...)
