    Pacers played last night (Wednesday) against the Clippers and won. So the Blazers have the advantage of rest.

    However, Indiana is on a roll, as they've won 6 straight games and 9 of their last 10.

    I think this is gonna be ugly for us.

    RE the poll question: I'd rather have this year's Batum, next year. We wouldn't want him winning us out of the Simmons sweepstakes, now would we. ;)

    That remains to be seen. For all of Aminu and Harkless's faults, they should match up as well as anyone with George.

    The problem is that if we use them on George, then we are playing small ball the whole game as he is there PF.

    How is Indiana still good? My god they have Paul George yes, but we have Damian Lillard as well but what gets me is they lost West, Hibbert, to name a few but yet their killing it still? Damn

    Aminu is maybe the ideal defender to put on George

    Sounds like PG-13 was at the Ducks Vs Fresno St game with Joe Young.

    Pacers announcers calling McCollum and Lillard "Clones of eachother".

    I find it difficult to cheer against Paul George. Tonight's going to be a nice game either way. That game a few years ago when he and Lillard were going back to back at each other in the 4th was one of the best games of that season.

    Been thinking about it and if I had to rate the 3's for who would be the best fit for the Blazers I would have to go with this:
    Paul George
    Kawhi
    Lebron
    Durant
