    I can certainly see Rudy's injury as being a catalyst for the team.

    I hope the Blazers don't forget this with our next home game against the Lakers and if we face them in the playoffs. I know I wouldn't!:tsktsk:

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I hope the playoff race is providing enough motivation, honestly. Considering how Portland played immediately after the injury, it's probably better to clear it from their minds and focus on basketball.

    I agree to somewhat but I wouldn't want the Blazers to forget when it comes their turn to foul a Laker from making a basket!

    When I saw the team huddled in prayer while the medics worked on Rudy, I said to myself, this is a special moment...a special team.

    I would. I'd prefer to not have a team that would take cheap shots at the other team. Batum coming from nowhere to make a Tayshaun-esque block? I'll be up off of the couch cheering if that happens.

    I think Kobe was a little annoyed that Batum wasn't reacting to any of his cheap shots. I freaking loved it.

    I'd change that goon to an even bigger badass.
