    Even though the Lakers win was without LeBron and mostly without AD it was great to see Dame put his game together for three quarters and really stomp the shit out of the Fake Show, led by Russ.

    I hope this game against the Clippers shows us some consistency and that we can perform on the road the way we do at home... also I expect Dame's struggles are behind us.

    Time for a nice, business-like win on the road. Will we get it?

    this will probably be another blowout game and considering how we play on the road, odds are against us

    but beating a good team on the road would really mean a lot

    National TV game on the road against a team looking to beat them after getting humiliated last game.

    No Problem! Blazers get their first road win.

    Was going to write something about injuries but don't want to bring any bad JU JU to the team.

    Edit- @Chris Craig getting the game thread up in record time!

    Going to have 2 of those in a row. Phoenix is going to want revenge.

    That game could get UGLY quick. PHX and DEN are usually the toughest back to backs. Just get in so late.

    What do the Rockets, Pistons, and Blazers have in common?

    Hint: it's not good.

    None of them have won a road game yet.

    Unfortunately it doesn't look like it's going to change real soon for the Blazers either. Maybe they can get one at Houston?

    Only happens a couple times a season, but being in the road and NOT having to work….. I could get used to it.
