    Injuries are part of the game. No one felt sorry for us when our teams have been gutted by injuries in the past.

    Game. Blouses.

    Blazers may not need that much defense. Nugz don't have the horses to keep up.

    Easy money. Tried to tell people from the time this matchup was set that Portland should be the favorite. Now playing with house money for the rest of the series.

    If we can get this Nurk on a consistent basis we might make some noise in the playoffs.

    Denver should have kept Grant. They really broke up a decent roster.

    alright this can be dame's one poor shooting game of the series. missing a ridiculous number of open threes.

    we should have won by 25+ with them in drop coverage for 3+ quarters
