    Realistically, he will find a reason and way to argue with you on these opinions.

    Grizz played hard, Blazers should be focus because they are not going to just lay down and quit.

    I was expecting a pretty uneventful night in the NBA, and low and behold both DEN and MIN end up losing.

    The DEN loss wasn't unexpected, but they are now 6 games behind us in the loss column and are basically no longer even interesting.

    MIN really shot themselves in the foot. They are now 4 games behind us in the loss column and are starting to look more and more like a 7th or 8th seed, which means a first round match up with GSW or HOU.

    Denver will be playing their asses off when we go there to play I'm sure. That will be a tough one. Hope we have 3rd locked up but then.

    Will they? I know they play much better at home, but they may very well be eliminated from playoff contention by then. They are now two full games behind UTA and MIN for the 8th seed. If they are mathematically eliminated by then (it's game 81 f 82 for both us and them), what will they have to play for? They may even chose to rest Jokic and Millsap to avoid risking a needless injury. It may een be in their best interest to lose and "pass" LAC to move up one spot in the draft.

    Of course, if we have the 3rd seed locked up by then, it won't really matter how DEN plays.

    I hope we lock it up by then because I'm dreaming of Baldwin/Papagiannis pick n rolls with Meyers, Wilcox, and Swanigan spacing the floor.

    Good News: Blazers have 2nd longest win streak in the West
    Bad News: It's just a 1 game winning streak

    There's some good talent floating around in the dleague. All some of them need is a legitimate chance
