    If you score 100 you beat the Grizzlies. They almost never let a team get triple digits due to their pace and defense.

    You don't want an 85-88 game or you lose.

    This is the exact same schedule that we had against Houston last year.

    You know sometimes I wonder if the fact that they beat us 4-0 this year will come into play. How hard is it to beat a team 5 or 6 straight times in the same season? If we can sneak one of those first 2 games the whole series changes quickly and gets real interesting.

    Oddly, it really is the same. Playing on the road by a team that dominated is in the regular season

    I took the Blazers in six.

    Because I'm a Homer (Or what is fandom for?)

    Looks like I'm not the only one!

    Agreed. Love that it's on Sunday. Gives Afflalo an extra day to get right and should def be ready by Game 2 on Wednesday.

    I like us in 6 games. We have 2 All Stars. We showed playoff toughness last year. Lillard has never lost in the first round. Can Grizzlies win the series? Sure but we have just as good of chance. Go Blazers!!

    We still have better talent. Unlike against SA, I think we could have the coaching advantage.
