    And yet it took off shooting nights from our two best players for them, at full strength, to beat us - barely.

    If people are underestimating HOU, I think they are underestimating POR, too.

    I was surprised by that headline, too. But when I thought back to their championships, they either underachieved during the regular season or over-achieved in the playoffs. There's a reason why the debate rages on, regarding whether they only won because Jordan was swinging a bat, or because they are one of the all-time great teams.

    Uh, Houston is 3-0 against the Blazers this season. In one of those wins they were missing Harden.....

    Utah can win a playoff series against a Curry-less Warriors. No doubt in my mind.

    The Warriors have 54 wins. If they beat the Jazz which it doesnt appear they will they would have 55. The most the blazers can get now is 54.

    Aldridge has been unstoppable lately. Averaging 36/9 over his last five games on 60% shooting from the field. Even destroyed Gobert in one of those games for 45 in OT. Really thought he was done after last playoffs
