    spurs won 5 out of 7, then lost 6 out of 7

    this is a trap game, we have to win these games, dont underestimate them and get the job done

    Blazers have better road than home record. Give long suffering fans something to cheer tonight.

    It seems like forever since they have played. The extra day was needed for them....not so much for me. Glad that they are back in action tonight.

    Hey, the Blazers are actually favored by the bookies! Only the 3rd time so far this season.

    Their ATS number is even better than their actual record. I want that to continue!!

    We just lost to Dallas. Isn't the psychology supposed to be we're mad as hell and will steamroll the Spurs?

    I've noticed Sharpe open multiple times where the player with the ball ended up with a much worse play or shot, but it hasn't been anything specific to Simons. I think it's because Simons has the ball more than other players. I also don't think it's anything specific to Sharpe. It happens all the time over the course of a game. Guys are making microsecond decisions, and sometimes it's not the best decision. Also I would say in relation to Sharpe, there may be some confirmation bias going on. I am always watching him and I want him to get the ball. So of course I'm going to notice when he doesn't.

    Sharpe is a rookie on a Winning team. Give it time.

    The Blazers haven't won anything meaningful yet, and for many of us fans Sharpe is one of the keys to doing something that matters, like going deep into the playoffs.

    i really liked simons as our point guard, he was developing playmaking skills and to be honest, i prefer simons running our offense than dame

    obviously, dame is back and simons is into that "cj mccollum" role, where he chucks shots, but so far i dont find simons irritating as cj mccollum was, whos game i absolutely despised

    maybe with time ill start hating simons game too, who knows

    If Sharpe is open, Simons shouldn’t go 1 on 3.

    Zach Collins should feel right at home tonight sitting on the bench in a suit with a boot on!

    Nurk will start. Justise's ankle is fine but seems he has some kind of illness.
    Keon Johnson was put in the back of the airplane on the way home. He has some illness too.

    I was just about to say that. At the end of the day, I don't care how ugly our jersey's are, I just want them to win!
