    Anyone catch the Nugget players that left the bench? I heard turner left our bench. Will suspensions come down from the league since the refs didn’t do it?

    That might be true but this not the first time that they didn't handle pressure well.

    As a Liverpool fan, I'm really glad the Blazers won tonight. If they hadn't I would have been miserable. Liverpool wins 4-0 at Anfield next Tuesday though!

    We all seem less suicidal than we were Monday.

    It happens man. Teams go on runs and the other team gets cold. It’s basketball.

    Don't forget Evan "Sleeper Agent" Turner - he's got it out for us too!

    If we hold home court in games 3 and 4, we win. If SA had done the same, we'd be facing them instead of Denver. Don't give them life. They're a momentum team. Kill their spirit and they'll fold.

    If we lose either G3 or G4 this win will be for naught. Must win both. Losing on your home court in the POs is unacceptable.

    So will someone explain to me how Damian Lillard plays solid defense and get elbowed in the face while getting called for a foul?

    I watched that three times and still cannot figure that out?

    The refs still don't respect him for some reason.

    Yep San Antonio did the Blazers a favor. The Nuggets look like they are shooting with tired legs.
