    This is it folks. Easily the biggest game of the season to date. We need this game. But of course we need them all. I think the game tonight will define our readiness for the postseason.

    GO BLAZERS!

    Back to back in a differnt time zone and high altitude . . . this one is going to be tough.

    On top of that, I'm sure Denver is as fired up as ever about this game. They are coming off a terrible road trip, they are being questioned nationally, they lost home court advantage to Phx and Blazers are nipping on thier heels. This to a team that many thought would challenge the Lakers. I'm expecting a fired up Denver team.

    Blazers are playing their best basketball of the season, but this has to be the biggest test in their recent tear.


    Sidenote: anyone catch all the Blazer love of NBA channel. Analyst are jumping on the bandwagon. It was 10 minutes of pure Blazer love . . . I was digging it.

    Damn! I wish I would have seen that! I like NBATV a lot and watch it pretty regularly. Got home too late last night after the game and went to work early today though.

    It is nice to be playing meaningful games this time of year. Now every game is a playoff game. You don't want to be a team that is out, because the teams that are still jockeying position will kick your teeth in.

    Earlier this season we busted up a streak of Dallas beating us in Dallas. Time to do the same to Denver.

    That is why it was important to put the wood to NY last night. Starters didn't have to play jack.

    Speaking of the NBA channel and the Leauge Pass.......because that is my only source for the Blazers, I miss the half time segment with "GO on the go". it pisses me off. They promote it and then they cut to the NBA half time show. How is it?

    We sure have had a lot of "biggest game of the season" games... Reminds me of a dog I read about once:

    That is the weird thing about this year. We can't protect our home court very well but the team seems to be road warriors. At this point, I am not really all that sure what home court buys us.

    I heard that, it has been a little lopsided this year. In years past this team couldn't buy a win on the road, this year is crazy!

    If we don't win this game, our team plane will explode.

    That, would not be good for a playoff run.
