    What a fucking game tonight but we now have to do it again. I really hope we have Ant or even Dame this game because the Suns will be out for blood. Regardless we have a roster full of dawgs and maybe this time we won't even let them back in to make it close.

    I’d love to see Ant play this game. If he’s available, Ant having this game off will be huge seeing as the Suns stars were playing 35-38 mins as well. Every game without Dame is an opportunity for Ant to player as the full time PG and work on becoming a better playmaker.

    When I hear "foot inflamation", I worry. Is there a discreet cause, or is it something Chronic?

    First thing I think is Plantar Fasciitis, but usually they name that, so I'm curious what else it could be.

    It looks like the Suns are predicted to win by 10 for this game -

    upload_2022-11-5_8-37-30.png

    Blazers and Suns have the same record, 6-2.
    Blazers are 2-0 against the Suns this season.
    Blazers are 3-0 on the road this season.

    No respect.

    Time to make it 3-0 versus the Suns this season.

    We're playing the Suns back-to-back nights IN Phoenix? Utterly bizarre. Has that ever happened before?

    Go Blazers.

    Good question. And is it scheduled to happen to anyone else this season?

    Yes.

    Last season we played back to back games in San Antonio and also had back to back games at home vs Houston.

    Yes. Us. We play the Thunder back to back on the road in December and then the Kings will play back to backs here in Portland in March.

    Some other examples:

    Phoenix as a back to back away against NO.

    The Lakers will play back to back at SAS.

    The Nuggets back to back at Dallas and Sac, then a back to back of 1 home, 1 away against Min.

    The Clippers played a back to back away at OKC, have another back to back away at Memphis, and a back to back at home against OKC. They have also played a home and away back to back against the Rockets.

    HOU has two back to backs on the road, one against SAC and the other against MEM. They also have threw home and away back to backs against LAC, MIN, and SAS.

    The Warriors don't have any back to backs against the same team away or at home.
