    If that ain't a true test of this team's mettle, growth, and state-of-the-union, NOTHING will be.

    Ginobli, or not!

    4 tough games. (Yes Minnesota is playing tough at home) If we can go 2-2 we will be in good shape.

    I love Ime Udoka! He would be perfect on our team.

    I'm not trying to be disagreeable, because I think McHale has Minny playing better, but they've lost their last six at home. http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/teams/schedule?team=min

    That being said, they have the kind of frontcourt players that bother us--high energy bruisers like Smith and Gomes. We could be tired and this could easily be a trap game.

    Minnesota has indeed lost a bunch, but they have not ceased to compete, unlike the Clippers yesterday...

    This road trip will tell a lot about the Blazers down the stretch.

    If we have Oden back, then I think we've definitely got a W in Minny. I'm hoping for 3-1, as the sooner we can lock up a playoff spot, the better.

    3 and 1 would be a awesome run in the next 4 games. 1 and 3 wouldn't be a disaster, to be honest. If Portland can get a win in either SA or Houston I would be psyched. I honestly can't remember the last time Portland won in SA.

    We really need to at least split the games in Texas. That would be huge, preferably vs. Houston.
