Denver 113 Portland 99 But I'm cheering for the Blazers. I was not impressed how we lost our lead against Houston. We won't be able to do that against Denver and still win the game. I anticipate a very tight first half...and we'll see what transpires in the third quarter. If Portland is to win, they'll have to stay out of foul trouble (Oden/Pryz) and keep Nene to under 13 points. If Nene is able to go for 20 and Oden/Pryz both foul out (or close to it) we lose.
