    I'm pretty sure that is correct. They wanted Boogie's 1st game on ESPN.

    Does someone have a rhinoceros I can borrow?

    I've got a battle helmet and a root beer, but I need a rhinoceros for tonight's game.

    Ahem.......I think New Orleans is going to hand our asses to us on a plate. But I hope I'm wrong. Did Davis play last time we played them?

    I really hope that trap the pick n roll again. We'll be able to see if we're better equipped/prepared to beat it.

    I'm betting Stotts goes right to Nurkic early.

    Not sure he has much of a choice to go any other way? They will smother Dame. CJ has not been shooting well. If Nurk draws a double he will have Aminu wide open all night.

    My call. If Aminu and Layman can hit some shots the Blazers will be in this game. If they rely on Dame it's over at the end of three.

    Is Harkless playing or not?

    I say have two outlet passes up court then run a pick n roll either way. Get the ball out to either one of those outlet passes before the trap gets there. Then they can attack in a 4-3 scenario with Nurkic as a dump off down the middle.

    Or something designed to take advantage of the trap. If we can punish teams for trapping, they wont trap, and itll open up the rest of our offense.
