    This feels like we're the Washington Generals playing the Globetrotters after the death of Meadowlark Lemon.

    Seven "Blazer fans" voted for Blazers to lose to the Lakers? WTF.

    I voted in favor of seeing Dame score 82 points. I'd remember that a hell of a lot longer than a single win

    And for Dame to have the 2nd best scoring output in NBA history, displacing Kobe Bryant in the record books.

    Yes.

    All things considered, I think it's highly unlikely we will win this game. Hope I'm wrong

    This should be the game where Nurk comes back and scores 27.

    I think they played Toronto @ LA and were losing until the third and fourth quarters where Kobe demonstrated his black mamba-ism.

    I think Blazers will win tonight... Dame is playing better than anyone in the league right now and Ariza so far looks to be a huge upgrade over Bazemore, or even Hood.

    He does... but overall I think the team has been sharing the ball more the last couple of games... plus the upgrade Ariza has given is huge. Also, Trent has stepped up big time off the bench

    A ref will pull out a bat and kneecap Dame long before they ever let us win this game. I’m serious, this is a game for the darlings if there ever was one. And nationally televised to boot. The best we can hope for is a good Kobe tribute and Dame dropping 60 in a loss.



    I’d love to eat me some crow on this one, but I just don’t think it’s gonna happen.
