    That'd be interesting.. to start Travis at PF? But that would seriously screw up our bench big time.

    If there was a team we could start Joel and Greg against, it's Cleveland....

    Give Nic and LMA their rest and take the mulligan.

    Eh, make it work. Play Bayless at the 2, Rudy and Roy at the 3 some to compensate

    Blake/Roy/Batum/Outlaw/Pryz
    Sergio/Bayless/Rudy/Frye/Oden

    If Batum can't go, then have a strict 3-man rotation at SG/SF of Roy/Rudy/Bayless, which would work for a game. The numbers are easily there. Might make some things funky, but minutes will make it work.

    Some of you guys are acting like we have ZERO chance to win tomorrow. Show a little fucking faith in your team goddamit.

    Ummm, exactly! Geez, guys. We want to be healthy when we play a great team like Cleveland so that we can beat them. Without LMA though, I'm very interested to see how Oden may step up with his offense.

    No shit! Didn't we beat Boston without Brandon Roy? Nobody gave the Blazers a chance in that one, either.

    Yup, Cleveland normally starts two centers with Big Z and Big Ben, but with Wallace out, they go with Big Z and Sideshow Bob.

    So, put Joel on Z and Oden on Varejao. If nothing else, we should always have someone in the paint to challenge Lebron when he drives to the basket - well, at least until Oden gets in foul trouble.

    Zero chance? No, not zero, but when you are on the road and going up against a team that is 30-1 at home on the season minus your starting power forward and starting small forward ... I'm no math wiz, but ...:dunno:

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    That was in Portland. Cleveland is 30-1 at home and Portland is...not wonderful on the road.

    Enormous difference between the two games.

    Maybe he'll be able to wear a football helmet in Milwaukee!

    Hopefully Nate will allow him to get more than the usual 2 or 3 field goals.

    I hope we don't push G.O. that much tomorrow. The guy just came back tonight. 10 minutes each half would be pretty good to get out of him unless he's really going good.
