    Going to the game Thursday so hopefully it is the game Wemby plays. Will be good to see Collins.

    Anyone else notice how many former Blazers are playing every night? Seems like every team has one or two. The Bucks/Nets game had seven!

    We're favored by 5.5 points in this one. So far this season we are 0-2 in games where Vegas favors us. I think this could be the first game in which we are favored and get the win. That being said I predicted that we would get slaughtered by the Kings. So as always what the fuck do I know? Not a damn thing.

    A little expensive to go see Wemby tonight? I see he has been upgraded to probable. Would hate to spend that money and not get to see him?

    Going to the game with my nephew. Anyone have a parking pass they want to sell? Since @SharpeScooterShooter gifted me that pass last time I feel like it is now the only way I can travel…I spend my days on TriMet as an FLS community transition teacher we are out riding public transportation daily. I like having some nice things once in a while and a parking pass seems fitting. Happy to pay if anyone has one for tonight. :)

    I don't know how Wemby and Lebron are mentioned in the same sentence.
    Lebron averaged 39.5. minutes per game his rookie season and played 79 games.

    But , it could be part of the tanking. Might as well come in one of the last 3 places.

    Dude….I wish I could have recorded my nephews shriek when he heard the message from you. He is so excited! You are such a cool person and I will happily buy you a pizza and beer to compensate. Someone give this guy a trophy!
