This is it! The last Blazers game before All-Star weekend, the last day before Valentine's. It would be nice to end it with a bang. That's what she said.

This will be like a preview of what's to come this weekend, as four All-Stars will be playing in this game. Not to mention, three 3-point Shooting Contest particpants will display their long-ball skills as well.

Golden State played last night, so this will be a back-to-back for them. Coach Kerr has decided to rest Cousins and Livingston for the game. This gives the Blazers a fighting chance. Howver, just like our last opponent, the Warriors are playing some extraordinary ball, winning 9 out of their last 10 games, and 16 of their last 17!

In fact, they have also notched an impressive 11 straight road victories. This streak began unironically against Portland back in December. Will it end in Portland tonight? Tune in to find out.
 
The Warriors aren't even taking this seriously. Even then, it's going to be a struggle for us.
 
If we win, we will have 2 wins vs GS in back to back seasons. Has anyone else done that?

Dang. Klay sprained his left Finter. That sounds painful.
 
Draymond Green and KD are going to combine for 28 points in the first quarter. I dislike this team and more so, the Thunder. Tough road trip so far.
 
So in this scenario i could see the Blazers pulling off this win. They are at home and probably want it more. But of course beating the Warriors is never an easy task. I sure would like to see this win.
Go Blazers!
Kjironman is a fan!!!
 
We'll beat them anyway but I want us to at least try Dame on Klay and CJ on Steph
 
They are on a back-to-back and resting 2 of their top 7 players?

'So you're saying there's a chance'?
The very fact the you said " .... Their top 7 players" speaks volumes. Doesn't even matter for every other team in the league after their top 2 or 3.

Boogie and Livingston? Who else is missing? They'll still destroy us
 
C’mon Steve Kerr, rest all your all stars so we can win before heading for a long road trip. Give them an early All-Star vacation please.
 
I would like to see Hood on Thompson a lot tonight. Thompson is to tall for CJ and Thompson like take CJ down low and shoot over him.

@Darkwebs changes his spelling error, so now my post referencing his looks like the one with the error..... smh

Sorry, man. Didn't mean for it to come off that way. Just don't have that much time in a work day to comment on everything, so to save myself some time and save some clutter from this thread, I just simply "liked" your post.

This is actually the second time this season someone commented as if I tried to hide my mistakes to try to make them look bad. I know I make my share of errors, so I guess I will respond now. I just don't have the time to comment back on every time someone makes an error, so sometimes I just hit the like button instead.

Again, apologies. Next time I will definitely try to make an actual reply to someone else pointing out my mistakes to not make them look bad.
