    Griffin just said he was sore... if that thing is not torn.... he should be giving it a go.

    Weird that they said done for the playoffs, when there is no structural damage. Maybe this is their white flag?

    Never mind, The press release by the Clippers just confirmed what she wrote.

    So now comes the tough "Gameplan for people you don't gameplan for as much" deal.... Sometimes these types of games can be really tough...

    Yep. Crawford and Aldrich would be the two I am most worried about now.

    Also, game 5 kind of seems like a trap game. It shouldn't be, I mean it's freakin' game 5 and it is tied 2-2. But, just worried that Blazers will not rise to occasion with perceived inferior competition with many of the Clippers sidelined.

    Right? The people over on the clippers board rag on him hardcore for being "lazy" and having "no motor".

    Yikes.... well this changes things significantly.

    It decimates their bench. Knowing our luck, some scrub will go off for 30 points in game 5.

    Now granted, this is the 9th time we've played them this year, so there's not much surprises.... but yes, I am nervous about that.

    Now all we need is Kawhi and LeBron to go down and we're good.

    jamal crawford is going to jack 30 shots at least. This could either be really good or really bad.

    Pendergraph's career is saved! After we done did him wrong.

    Watch out for Pendie.

    A little taste of what we've been going through over the past decade or so. But man, this will definitely fire up their role players. It won't be easy.

    This is what I'm worried about, too. But then I was worried about G4, and we came out strong from the tip.
