    I hope they aren't pushing Moe to come back. It's only been....3 weeks?

    Why does Dame sit instead of warming up? Hardly the first time I've seen it. Seems like he's been doing it this season; I can't recall him doing it in seasons past.

    Wasn't it reported this year Lillard warms up, sits down, warms up again, then sits down again?

    What are you talking about? If it's on TV they show stuff from earlier. He was working out pretty hard about an hour and a half before the game and has been warming up the whole time since they all came out together.

    I hope we learned our lesson and come out and fucking smash these guys tonight. I hope Stotts has made a couple of adjustments so we don't have to work so much harder for a good look compared to them.

    But deep down I feel that Stotts won't change a thing and just hope that his guys make more shots than the other team and bail his ass out.

    Fuck. Either way, go Blazers!

    If only that was a thing. I bet thousands of people would have donated their meniscus to Brandon Roy.

    You may be right; I haven't personally heard anything about that.

    I'm watching it on a stream. I saw him sitting on the bench. It was a little concerning to me is all, so close to game time.

    Nurk better bring some 20+20 tonight. Glad that Moe is back.

    According to the stats monitor at Moda, the Blazers will stay the same for Game 2 vs. New Orleans and start: Lillard, McCollum, Turner, Aminu and Nurkic.

    I expect Portland to play defense for more than just 12 minutes tonight.

    I really would like to see Zach next to Nurk in the starting lineup, and bring ET off the bench. Oh well, Blazers need to play loose, and SHAVE THE BROW!

    R. Lee Ermey's eyebrows were better than AD's.

    Yeah I said it.

    You know it's cool and all the lights keeping the beat. But I like the Blazers blow up things they gave out much more.
