    This is basically our season. Absolutely have to win 6 of them to have a chance. I'll give us one hiccup but the rest have to be Ws.

    If Dame returns and goes incandescent - 4-3. If Dame isn't playing (or plays poorly) any win is a "how did that happen?"

    Dame will return in a week or more. Groin is tough, but in just glad it was nothing really bad. He’s 80% I think... he stayed in Portland to increase his recovery, I’m pretty sure Dame did not quit yet.

    well, the next game is at Atlanta and they are 6-2 at home over their last 8 games, with wins against the Clippers, 76ers, Miami, & Dallas. They aren't pushovers at home. Meanwhile, Blazers are 10-21 on the road, and are 1-7 over their last 8 road games

    something else: I thought OKC was being dismissed too quickly last summer, but I would have never believed they would actually be 11.5 games ahead of Portland at this point in the season; or that Dallas would have a 10.5 game lead.....kind of boggles my already boggled brain

    I think Pelicans will claim that spot. Not us not the Grizzlies.

    Aren't you kind of intrigued about what interesting ways we'll find to lose?

    The Chris Paul effect.

    I REALLY hope we'll see a Houston-OKC matchup in the playoffs. Talk about grudge match.
