    I will be less hydrated and have more energy later, so I’m rooting for the evening game. That and I don’t land from Chi-Town til 1, so don’t want to miss any of the action.

    Haha touché, I wasn’t too worried. My mom is coming over for a t-bone dinner, the Blazer game would’ve been a good dessert.

    Although the early time means I will have to watch on my laptop while supposedly working; I think it should be an advantage for Blazers. At least in the first half. Kanter and Aminu will only have to fast from about 5 am to 12:30 before they start playing. In the other games they were going from 5am to 7:30 at night, twice as long without food and water before playing. (But then they got to eat and drink at halftime.) Should be most effective Sunday in the first half.

    My absolute worst all time sports memory. 2000. I drove back and forth, Oakland to LA to Oakland to Portland and went to every game of WCF. Game 7. Only time I had to pay scalpers price for tickets. Drove to LA. I n all my Blazers gear. Up 15 after three quarters.

    We know how it ended.

    Leaving arena surrounded by Lakers fans.

    Blazers. Need to exorcise those demons.

    I understand your point but i just cannot agree with the premise. Fact if the Warriors win (Yes i know they did) then they don't have to schedule a game on the west coast pacific time. They are not going to push a Denver game past 8:30- 10:30 eastern. Not gonna happen. My problem is with playing all of the game 7's on Sunday. But i can understand that also. Seriously the team that plays the Warriors is gonna have to dig deep. No rest at all.

    Pretty much always been this way. Don't take care of business quick and pay the consequence. Finish your opponent off early and take a breath.
