    Well if we want some good news in the last series. Denver Blew out San Antionio in game 5 at home. Then they got blown out in game 6. Of course game 7 didn't go San Antonio's way, but if it's a close game like that I'd rather have Dame / CJ to orchestrate a close game than LMA and Derozan...

    Leaders do not show weakness.
    I am a leader of people.
    There is a difference between losers and winners.
    Winners never quit! Quitters never win!
    Until this team loses 4 games they have a chance to win this series.
    Winning a game in the Moda is always a possibility. If you don't think so then you are not paying attention. What are you gonna think when this series is 3-3?
    Go ahead and doubt Lillard...... I'm begging you.

    Fucking posters around here need to be named Eeyore. This is a Blazer board. You got a problem with positive Blazer posts go post on the Nuggets Board.

    I have a really good feeling, something shifted with Meyers against Jokic. We may be able to get in their heads and throw them off their game. Cut the head off the snake.

    Yeah, I don't have $150 to spend right now. Have to save up as much as possible.

    So the NBA will have 2 WC Game 7s on Mothers Day!? Lol you can’t make this shit up...unless you’re the NBA I guess. I’m sorry but there’s just too much money involved with these games and gambling for it not to be slightly rigged imo.

    Sixers/Raptors too. Three game 7s scheduled for Sunday. If Bucks/Celtics go 7, they play on Monday. I'm hoping for a VERY exciting basketball day on Sunday.

    I have not given up hope but it's thin. No idea what happened but after a close first quarter their just seemed to give up.

    I will turn on game. I will be hoping with everything I have for a win. But I'll be frank. If I see a repeat of last night I'm going to watch something cheerful like Silence of the Lambs.

    P. S. Whatever happens I will always love the Blazers. Like that 90s song, whatever it takes, or how my heart breaks, I will be right here waiting for you.

    Go Blazers.

    I understand. I'm watching at home also. But more because i don't have time. Just the way it works.

    That game 4 loss really hurt. Game 5 they looked demoralized. If we end up losing and the rockets end up beating the warriors this is going to hurt for a while. At least we didn't get swept in first round like last year and we have Nurkic out and Kanter injured, but I feel this was a winnable series. Some of our guys especially Evan Turner did not come to play. I feel like we are getting out coached also.

    Haha. We trailed by 15 vs OKC in close out game. No matter how it starts, leave the game on. Anything can happen in the NBA.

    In this case, it's because Dame is not about insecure bluster or fake bravado, or providing bulletin board material for the other team.

    Most of all, it's because Dame is not a moron.
