    This is a much needed game. If Portland were to lose, then you have two teams to get over to get HCA and we wouldn't have the tie breakers so would have to finish a game in front of both.

    Any of you ever see the lady who wears traditional African clothing and is always in the crowd dancing? She’s always on tv and on the big screen. I’m sure @ThePosterFormerlyKnownAsTheHCP knows who I’m talking about. It’s my best friends grandma lol.

    Why?

    As an athlete, I wouldn't be scared to go up against LeBron. I never understand why players got scared to go up against good players.

    I think we're going to need to look to run more in transition this game. The Thunder's halfcourt defense is way to stingy.

    We are forcing shit and letting them play their game instead of playing to our strengths.

    Does anyone besides me hate the pull up threes in transition 1v5? There is no chance for an offensive rebound and your teammates are busy getting back on offense before immediately trying to match up on defense.

    I like how MeeJ was animate about Nurk not doing jump shots if there was time on the clock and as a first play on offense. And what does he do? Shoot the ball with 19 seconds on the clock.

    Fuck this guy.

    Don't see the focus I would hope would be here. Is Lillard trying to make this him against Westbrook instead of Portland vs. OKC?
