    Random Dame stat - Counting Pre/*Postseason dame has failed to reach double digit scoring only 12 times in his career. 5 his first season, 4 his second, 3 his third. He has yet to do so this season.

    That number drops to 11 if you don't include preseason...but then you don't have the 5-4-3!

    *He has scored in double digits in every post season game.

    Yes, I've noticed. In fact, I've come up with a nickname for him because of it: V-Neck

    Having a long neck means that he's basically shorter than the 6'10" he is listed at. Luckily he has a huge 7'4" wingspan to make up for being deceptively short.

    Send what message? That they won't get blown out by 50 again? This is an easy win for Blazers.

    Iggy is awful at free throws and he won Finals MVP. It's not the end all be all if you contribute in other ways.

    Last night wasn't an easy win, they worked their asses off to earn that, and they are going to have to do it again tonight.

    While this will not be an easy win, the Grizzlies won't be "sending a message" The Blazers are are a different team then when the Grizz last saw them....Randolph is an egocentric player...he and his team will underestimate us....let them!

    Iggy is a career 71% free throw shooter. He had a bad year last year but shot 72% in the finals. If Plums or Davis can even sniff 70% they will be fine.

    This will be a nice test tonight. This is the first Western playoff team we've played. One that totally owned us last year.

    The Thunder have surprisingly been underwhelming this season

    Of course, they had to work for it but the Jazz are no match for the Blazers' effort and that's why it was easy. Work, yes, but easy work. Tonight should be a blowout for us. The best 2 players in the gym play for our team. Memphis has no answer.
