    We must win this one , I know I m catching up , but ffs , beat SA, beat Atlanta, Beat Heat (witch was on best run in league, 28-5 ,if m not wrong) all away games , and we get vlow out by fteeking Pelicans , and beat by Bucks at home. I m not expert in NBA basketball . I watch a lot European Basketball before , you know ,Champions against Champions of all Country , When Kukoc , Radja was in Jugoplastika -. KK Partizan , Divac , Paspalj, Obradovic, Dzordzevic- KK Aris, Galis-Ioannidis-Giannakis Yanakis-,KK Zalgiris, Sabonis, Stomberas, Dzakauskas... Man that was Basketball , any team could come and destroy other in year two.
    Now is like in football , sorry soccer. Champions League and there is like 6 ro 8 Champions , you have 5 Country s , and scraps for others . who produce players for this rich ones , playing exery year same teams. NBA , I kinda stop watch with Jordan. So Portland is insane , we need to win at list games because Denver will not give up

    But, he's a baller, and he plays really hard.

    I watched the 3rd and 4th of the knicks game last night. I was like "who is this Luke Babbitt looking mother...". When they said his name I remembered watching him play for Wichita St. Dude hustles hard, he translated that college style hustle defense over to the league, kind of like TJ McConnell. He should see a tough challenge tonight with Dame/CJ/ET.

    I think we will kill the Knicks tonight. Teams not gonna be happy about dropping their first home game after that road trip. Knicks aren't playing for anything right now and look disinterested on the court. Also on the second night of a back to back. If we come out shooting like we have in the last few games this one will be over like the Atlanta game, only worse.

    Good chance to see Layman tonight

    You posted a video of the Chalupacabra dunking, he plays for the heat now. Ron Baker just looks a lot like Luke Babbitt, don't let it confuse you again during tonight's game.

    Ron Baker and Luke Babbitt aren't the same person dude.

    Ron Baker (Plays for the Knicks, never played for the Blazers)

    Luke Babbitt (Played for the Blazers, fed 24,000 people Taco Bell on one iconic night)
