    On a serious note, I wouldn't be upset if Pat got some run if we needed to go with shooters to close the gap in some way.

    Last year a few people were saying that Meyers would have made a difference spreading the floor against the Warriors, this year we've got him so let's see how this plays out.

    Won't the Warriors be surprised when Meyers averages four three pointers and 9 rebounds a game in this series.

    Hoping for a good showing today from our boys. Was impressed how the Grizz came out firing on the Spurs and were up big on them early. They ended up losing big time, but at least they put up a fight. Would be proud of our guys if they at least made it tough on the Dubs for a little bit.

    That's a mighty low bar - hope we play like Memphis and get up 1- before losing by 30?

    Where's @riverman? With @KingSpeed down for the count in positivity we are going to need his optimistic view for this game today.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I mean, if Crabbe is playing, who needs Nurkic? Crabbe fits the modern game much better, Nurkic is a '90s NBA kind of guy.

    You are so fake. How about some faith in our guys. Is it going to be easy? No. Are the odds against us? Yes. Is it guaranteed that we are going to lose? No!

    I watched the game and swore the grizz were up at least 10 mid 1st quarter. Am I wrong?

    This is an important lesson for our @HCP. His boss tweets positive things about the Blazers while @HCP trolls people who are positive and optimistic about the team.

    @HCP not a boss. Never a boss.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    One day ago, Rudy Gobert was declared out, but the Jazz didn't give a fuck and won anyway. If the Jazz can do that against the Clippers, I see no reason why the Blazers can't do it against the Warriors.

    Also, what if Leonard finally steps up to stardom and makes Nurkic expendable? That's happened so many times in sports, it's even named after a player who had it happen to them: David Lee.

    Yeah, they were up 13 at one point in the first quarter. And then never scored again.
