    I didn't realize that Whiteside was healthy. Therefor it looks like we've got the advantage at starters and bench and coach. They've got home court. Therefor I'm predicting a Blazer win.

    Ain't a gonna happen. LaVine will be lucky to hit 30 and I'm predicting he'll get maybe 25 or even less.

    Everytime I see a game thread nowadays I'm thinking off this quote (replaced with the appropriate team name)

    Continuing to get a shot at Avdja who some are calling Doncic 2.0......or a not very meaningful win against the lowly Bulls?
    Adding Avdija to:

    Nurk/Skal
    Collins/Avdija
    Hood/Little
    CJ/Simons
    Dame/Simons

    ...with whatever they can get for Whiteside/Baze? They need more size up front but should be able to do that.

    I've got NO problem with that whatsoever. Blazers in 2021!!

    I remember, about a decade ago, a struggling Blazer team, full of newly added veterans, going into a game in Chicago, and coming out with a different head coach.
    But what scares me for tonight, is The Bulls have 2 or 3 guys I've never heard of...if this season has shown me anything, it's that these guys will be household names after tonight.

    It's going to be a really hard game to win I am afraid. A knockdown drag out rocknroll party in the street type of game.

    Just watched NBATV replay of Saturday's Chicago at Charlotte.
    The Bulls had a remarkable comeback in the final seconds, stunning the Hornets and their crowd.
    Lavine had 49, making 13 3's including a last second miracle.
    They should be feeling pretty good about themselves.

    I have no idea who most of their players are. So far this season, that has been a bad thing. It's time to get a win based off of Melo's name recognition alone!
