    If you can’t beat a 30 year old rookie starting PG with Rivers, you don’t deserve to advance.

    Holy shit, just noticed Dame is averaging 9.6 assists and 1.4 turnovers this series for a A/T ratio of 6.8. That is just absurd. 40% assist rate as well.

    Everyone is talking about how the Blazers can't survive defensively without Nurkic. The bigger issue is how they've not been able to survive offensively without Dame. That's a complete failure of the other guys considering the offensive talent we have.

    What do you expect? We have not had a legitimate backup PG for the last 5 years.

    Hey guys, good news. Dame was voted as one of the best teammate. A lot of players will sign with the Blazers next season to help him now.

    So we’re going to watch this game live at the mental hospital I work at. I guess if we lose, I’ll check myself in. I’m gonna be REALLY upset if it ends like this.

    Why exactly are people confident in this game? I think we will win, but its not a foregone conclusion cause we do lay eggs at home this year.

    I'm very cautiously optimistic.

    whatever happens tonight, it will be a good night

    either it means game 7 or it means bye bye terry stotts (the same goes for game 7 if we win tonight)

    its a win-win situation in my book

    Regardless of tonight’s outcome, when Terry is our head coach opening night this fall......this place is going to be hilarious!

    Hello Blazers. I feel lucky to witnnes in real time Lillards performance in last match. I am old enough to remember Jordans games, Brayants games...But this was something best i have ever watched. I lost of words to say what i think about Lillard. Portland is privileged to have him as the best player in Blazers history.

    I cant wait tonights match. I really do not want the end tonight. Lillard does nit deserve that. I am from Bosnia. Nurk, my Nurk, please stay out of foul truoble and help him. CJ, please do not go 1 vs 5, please shot open shots or normaly contested shots. Roco you must play hard in defense and help Nurk. Powel you have to be explosive on both ends. Mello, you have to repeat game 4. Simmons you must hit 3 threes. Kanter please play that fu..king deffense for once. We must win this. Go Blazers. For Dame.
