    With the jazz playing the kings and denver playing the wiz....

    Id say its a must win for us or guess what?

    we are only 2 games ahead of the jazz for playoff spot.

    Maybe the blazers might wanna hold off on printing those playoff tics

    It could also be a good night. You ought to quit looking at the glass half empty. Check that, completely empty. Portland is 12 games over .500, you should be overjoyed for the opportunity to extend our record.

    Well, it's a Friday night. A night where most people go on a date or go drinking with their friends. So yes, MIXUM, this is likely a bad night for you.

    Not true. Phoenix is currently the 9th seed. And if we lose, we will be three games ahead of them.

    Learn the game, then post.

    The Blazers got beat by the Sonics last year, so I don't see why they couldn't get beat by them this year. I really worry about Travis Outlaw being on Durant or Green, as they launch lots of 3's, and he doesn't cover very well. Westbrook on Sergio(If he starts) worries me as well.

    Basically, it comes down to once again, Portland going inside. They haven't been doing that well lately, so I don't expect them to do that well with it tonight. Probably another game of freezing Oden out of the offense, taking a lot of outside shots, and giving up transition buckets from long rebounds.

    Isn't there some sort of rule for baiting, or making threads just for the purpose of getting a rise out of people? These pop up before every... single... game. The same old shit.

    how do you feel about the UW vs WSU showdown between Brandon Roy and Kyle Weaver?

    Oden could provide some fun too, but I think the biggest difference between the clubs might be the bench.

    Last year it was sunny on February 6th, and today is rained.

    Last year was last year, and this year is this year. The two have little to no impact on each other.

    I don't know about that. Everything is tied together in the universe.

    Name the Feb. 6th that there wasn't a black cloud hovering above Mixum.

    OKC has no interior presence. If we manage to get the ball to GO - he would finish with a 20-20.

    All of your base are belong to us!

    Mixum can spot bad in a winning powerball ticket.

    That all depends on which Brandon Roy shows up. 2 for 10 Broy, or 30 6 and 5 Broy.
