    This should be quite a look at these teams. Kind of funny the mentality of the off season for both. Denver went largely "Let the Cake Bake" and the Blazers went all in on the retool. I can say that Portland most definitely is dealing with a greater loss injury wise with both Nurk and Gasol out though in my opinion Bol Bol will make an impact at some point for the Nuggets this season.
    Too bad Whiteside retweaked his ankle as he will be asked to contribute heavily. Lets see what he is made of? My bet is you will see a 9 player rotation. Stotts will go with Bazemore, Hezonja, Tolliver and Simons off the bench. However if you see Whiteside in pain or not producing because of lack of mobility we might also see Skal. In true Stotts form i doubt you will see much of Little, Brown, Hoard and personally i just don't feel Trent performed well enough to crack the rotation.
    The Moda "Rose Garden" should be rockin. It usually is opening night.
    My pick is Rodney Hood tonight. He has the advantage on Barton in size and he can punish Barton on both sides of the court. Like usual Barton will try to go hero as soon as he gets burned a few times. Hood can play smart and Barton has trouble in this area. If the Blazers get 12 and 4 out of Hood they will indeed have accomplished their goal this summer.

    I'm ready for the season to start!

    Go Blazers!
    Kjironman is a fan!!!
