    If the Beard can score 40+ points against Beverley. What will he do against the Blazers defense?

    Bazemore is probably going to play a lot as he's the only Blazer perimeter player that can probably have a chance defensively against Harden. I don't want Hood getting in foul trouble and CJ would be a disaster

    I see a cram session and he come off the bench tomorrow. Stotts will show him couple plays like a pick and pop or stand in the corner. More likely he has the play book and studying it and been in the league long enough that he pick few he can use tomorrow.

    Serious Question. If we can pull this game out AND win more games than lose on this trip, does that put us back in the contender category? Injured players coming back for the playoffs and all?

    Well the answer to that is not really because we don't even know if those guys will be healthy and if they are how much they'll actually contribute. Plus at this point last year there was no way to know that we'd end up bulking up the roster with Kanter and Hood so similar type moves could still happen this year.

    Bottom line is we can't find out the answer to the question if we don't stay in the playoff race though so I'd like to be able to be in a position to actually find out.

    Holton just said "when Harden starts playing with that thing between his legs, he distracts you" and i feel really awkward.
