I'm very hopeful that we win this one but in reference to the poll question: I want us to show that we're getting better and therefore I'd like to see us take two of these three games on this road trip. That being said, I just don't see us beating either the Jazz or Warriors on their home floors. Let's hope our team proves me wrong and for sure let's not lose a trap game against the Kings.

The Kings are a mess. We can’t loose this game.

Just got to the hotel here in Sac! Late night!

I went with 2 road wins this trip. I know. I know. Wishful thinking. I'll be happy with 1 win. Hoping they put together some good games. They get a couple days off on this trip so maybe they can steal a game?

How does this work with teams Playing on the road on Thanksgiving weekend when they play on Friday in Oakland then have 2 days off and play in Salt Lake on Monday? Those destinations are pretty close? Do you fly back on Friday night and spend a day at home? Or just go to Salt Lake and spend 2 days off there?
I know if we are talking about Lillard he has ties to both places but what about the rest of the team?

Edit- Or can you answer that kind of question. If not it's all good.

So did I. Why dream if it's not about the Blazers winning every game?

Dreams have value. Dreams are just shapable goals with the right mindset.

Kimpton Sawyer next to the arena?

Wizard Mentor · Nov 24, 2021

It's weird to say this, but...
This is a big game.

We've proven we're a top team at home, so playing better on the road is this team's highest priority. That needs to start asap. The Kings have talent, but are basically in shambles. We need to win this game!

I was wondering as well. I think they should go straight to SLC on Saturday morning. Get used to the altitude and focus on just basketball without any distractions. They have another long homestand after the Jazz where they can see their family.

I agree it is a big game. It will most certainly not be an easy one. The Kings are desperate for a win. I hate playing desperate teams. And like you said, they have talent.

Will we actually guard Harrison Barnes this time?

They make you fly in a sack? Do they check you through at luggage claim?

Oh no, it’s a b2b trap game and Kings got a new coach

Shaboid · Nov 24, 2021

As long as Harrison Fucking Barnes doesn't score another season high against us, I like our odds.

Let HB have his, just stop the others.

Predator · Nov 24, 2021

I think this is a loss fellas

Buffalo Custard · Nov 24, 2021

Winning on the road is the next step in the team's evolution.

AldoTrapani · Nov 24, 2021

Let’s go! Good to see simons killing again last night! I been hard on him. Now to finally win me over win some road games

FlashWad · Nov 24, 2021

We badly need to improve our road play. Winning here against a demoralized kings team would be a good way to start. We can't be this bad of a road team.

Mr. Robot · Nov 24, 2021

this is a loss if ever there was one

Crazy, I was thinking the exact opposite. This game is exactly what I'd want going into a road trip where you are trying to turn the corner. Ride the momentum from the home streak, Dame is firing again.. This is the road trip we really need to build a team identity.

Fairly-Hard · Nov 24, 2021

Sorry. Gonna go against the Negs on this one. Blazers get this one tonight. Might be close but they will clamp down on defense and take this game.

haha if we start kicking ass and get way over .500 you’ll have no material and jump ship

HailBlazers · Nov 24, 2021

Heard Simons was out sick.

twobullz · Nov 24, 2021

Wonder if we see more DSJ with Ant out tonight

Labinot41 · Nov 24, 2021

Good morning. Go Blazers and Dame
