    Storylines:

    * First game vs Lakers with Gerald Wallace as a Blazer

    * Bynum seriously injured Wallace a couple years ago

    * Lakers said last game against us was "toughest of the season"

    * Gerald Wallace was 8-2 against the Lakers in his first 5 years as a Bobcat

    * Blazers can tie the Nuggets for 5th place in the West and 9th in the entire NBA

    * Lakers can clinch a playoff berth

    I can't fucking wait for this game.

    3/20 Blazers vs. Lakers Game Thread

    My prediction: How well Wallace plays will determine if we win this game or not. He has the Lakers' number.

    So will Bynum be suspended for this game? I guess we'll have to wait until tomorrow morning for an answer.

    I'll be really impress if the Blazers win this game in LA.

    7 of the next 8 games are going to be really tough and four will be on the road.

    It'll be real interesting to see the matchups. A win here might top the one in Miami.

    I'm always nervous about big games on Sunday night -- a loss makes Monday morning that much much more difficult.

    A win, on the other hand...

    I am also interested in tonights match ups. Not really into moral victories. But a loss will not bother me if we show we can match up with them. For that reason I hope Bynum plays. But the Wallace/Odom battle is what I am most interested in. In the past we have not had anyone that can really stay with him.

    My biggest question is can we go small and still match up if Bynum starts. I would rather keep Camby coming off the bench.

    Bynum is big, but I don't think he's got the chops to stop LMA right off the bat; and if he's forced to roam and guard Gerald "Baby Center" Wallace on the perimeter (or force LA to run a zone to keep Bynum near the pint) we will take advantage.

    Anyone have some sort of dedicated HD link they could sent me? Haha I know it's a long shot, but worth a try over when it's these PoS streams over and over again.
