    I think this can be achievable, but I do think with Miami possibly losing again right now they will be super pissed and do anything for a victory and since we are their next game, could be ugly. We should beat Charlotte and hopefully these guys are pissed of at the Hawks after what they did to us a week ago. Orlando is also beatable, but we will see.

    I agree. I love seeing Wade, LeBron, and Bosh walk off the floor with the sad/down looking face. However, this could be bad for our game against them (especially because our defense will probably get eaten alive), but also LeBron always goes God mode on us always making 3's that he sometimes has no business making.

    It goes both ways. A win would have given them confidence. A loss puts them in the dumps even more.

    It is true, but I would rather see them on a win (a chance of playing more lax then) as opposed to being pissed and searching to win a game, any game especially against a good team. They will be even more super motivated IMO.

    My wish is for them to implode, culminating in a three-way fist fight on national TV. :)

    I'd prefer a slap fight with some crying and name calling.

    Decent start. But our guys played heavy minutes tonight.

    Good thing the flight to MIA isn't that long.

    I fully expect an easy Heat victory tomorrow. They are due for one.

    I also expect the Blazers to sweep the CHA/ATL back-to-back.

    I'd be real happy if that happen. 3-1 on the road trip? Ya, I'd take that! Think 2-2 more likely.

    Yeah...... the timing of the Miami game could not have been worse. I find it hard to believe Miami will lose after all the press the last two days.

    I would agree with you, but Miami doesn't seem to be all that strong mentally. In my mind, the more time they have to get all this national hate and press, the more fragile they get.

    I think we need to send Jarron Collins into the game real early to pick a fight with Bosh. Just to see what happens. :devilwink:

    blazers need to smack them in the mouth early.

    its about as impossible as a game you could get. however if a miracle happens (we usually play well in miami) how big will tnts thurs game be? heat vs lakers. tnt is pulling for a blazer win.

    I look forward to Aldridge taking it at his friend and I'm interested to see how Wallace defends LeBron. I think tomorrow may become the Dwyane Wade show, however, with all our twos in foul trouble.
