    If the injury is real then I repeat my question on why Grant was jumping on his back in celebration after the Warrior game.

    They could use a win tonight.
    Don't really care who plays as long as they play tough and get a win.

    Losing 3 in a row to the Thunder and the season series would be a tough blow

    I do like the nicknames "The Badger" and "BadjiAss" but I think we'd better go with Ibou Badknee.

    If we lose any of the next 3 games, we should tank. I mean it.

    Not really. Any team can beat any team so if we lost to the thunder tonight it's not the end of the season or anything.

    Yes it is. You can’t shrug off losses all season long if you want to make a title run. It’s not December anymore. Only 27 games remaining.

    Ignorance is bliss. Keep telling yourself whatever you want to rationalize.

    Winnable games vs teams we are battling for a spot against. Have to finally win these. Cant keep on brushing off these losses. They matter now.

    Sure. Badji has an "Injured knee." Obvious tank is obvious.

    wouldn't be good, but I remember a year that Portland went 0-4 against the Thunder. Guess what happened in the playoffs
