    Nuggets won 5 more games than us. Nuggets are 3 seed. Nuggets went 13-5 after Murray injury. That’s why the Blazers winning is an upset.

    But in their defense, it’s not like basketball is a game of runs at all.

    You were right about 42 wins but we got 6 seed and will not lose in first round. But you’re right about the clowns.

    I would ask that nobody contacts my boss and tell them I am predicting a Lakers series win. I have bills to pay.

    It would be an upset if the Nuggets even win one game. They got no Barton. They got no Murray. Michael Porter Jr. and Gordon suck. All the got is Jokic and that ain't enough. Austin Rivers should have retired about 5 years ago. He ain't worth a shit either. The Nuggets are dead meat. They had no chance at the beginning of the series. That is why when the Blazers win, it will not be an upset.

    I'm thinking you should prepare yourself to be upset. The Nuggets most likely will win a game. Beating any team twice in their own gym is tough enough let alone a very good team with an MVP caliber player.

    I know people like to poo poo on gambling odds, but Vegas had this thing as coinflip; nowhere near a landsize advantage for Portland. We're even underdogs tomorrow... go make yourself some money!

    There are those around who feel Vegas doesn't know squat? I'm not one of them.
