    This is a big game for the Blazers. I think Indiana and the Clips are losses, and Memphis has been playing pretty well. Milwaukee
    will not be easy, but it is winnable. We need this one too.

    I was going to actually answer the question, but when there's a ridiculous option, I have to select it.

    W/OKC sandwiched in at home on a back-to-back, this is really like a 9 game road trip. Of which, we should win 4. It would be great if we can pull an upset to go 5-4, maybe Indiana or Memphis. The homer in me wants to think it's possible we could be 6-3. I'm not putting money on that though. ;)

    Maybe I spoke too soon about counting Indiana as a lost. I was influenced by how well they played against the Clippers (Twice) We will be their first game at home after a long road trip and it will be a back to back for them.

    Milwaukee has been playing really well lately. A couple wins over Brooklyn, but also some other solid wins, and a close game with the Spurs. Tonight won't be easy.

    We already got 1 on the trip. I think we will beat the Bucks tonight. Memphis is tommorow on the second night of a back to back, ouch, not easy but doable. I think we will beat the Pavers. And as for the Clips, well we all know that story.

    Conley being out makes that game at Memphis one we really need to get - and would help for a potential tiebreaker later....

    Not a bad start, but they need to get an offensive rebound. That fucking ball bounces right to where the Bucks stage in the paint every goddamn time.

    As much as Harkless has improved tremendously this year, for some odd reason when he shoots 3s I still don't trust it
