    How don't we match up well with them? And Harden won't play.

    Feel free to make fun of me, but I think the east is going to end up in this order. Boston Milwaukee and Indy. I think they were good last year and went out and got better over the summer. I think Indy made some sneaky good pick ups that no one talked about because it was indy and they werent superstars.

    Gordon still lights the Blazers up every time. Chris Paul always has his way with Dame. Capella is too fast for Nurk. Tucker is better than Layman and Melo seems to have big games against the Blazers.
    The Blazers do not match well with the Rockets but i can agree it would be worse if harden was playing.
    It will still be the second of a B2B and the last road game of this trip. Of course i can be wrong but my guess is it will be very tough to beat them on Tuesday.

    I think many in here are underestimating GTjr.

    Eric Gordon has plenty of game to give the Blazers problems.

    The way I see it is Trent is the safer bet to contribute, while Simons has the higher ceiling.

    Jake still starting but he only played 5 minutes last game and didn't get in the 2nd half until the last 30 seconds. He made his only shot (a '3') but what is the point of starting him if he is only going to play that much?

    Nurk has to go up stronger than that against Whiteside. That shot was spiked.
