    Re: Injury updates

    Sprains are always much worse the day after. It's gotta be hella stiff right now.

    We need at least 1 of the 2 to play tonight if we want to have a chance. It's unlikely we'd win anyways since the Cavs are 30-1 at home this season.

    Re: Injury updates

    It is the high ankle sprains that can really take a lot of time to heal . . . I don't think that is what Batum has.

    Is there anything at all you like about this team? I mean, for a Lakers fan.

    95.5 said LaMarcus will play tonight, but Nicolas won't and Travis is in the starting lineup. That's pretty good news.

    True, we are so stacked with SF's that he (and his 6 fouls) will hardly be missed.

    Double Yawn.

    It does get a bit old refuting a poster who is clearly not a Blazer fan.

    In what way would Batum be an overrated defender? Has he made any NBA all-defensive teams? Do players or media around the league consider him a great defender?

    He is a 20 year old being matched up with against other teams best scorers.

    Thanks for the insightful thoughts. Anything else the board can't go without?

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    There's an amusing moth-drawn-to-the-candle effect going on between certain posters and MIXUM. ;)
