    Back and forth, back and forth we go. The Blazers have been alternating between home and away games 8 straight times now. This will be the last of this cycle, as it will be the first night of a road back-to-back.

    The Pelicans are hot on Portland's heels for the 8th spot, being just 2.5 games behind, so this game will be feel like it's worth more than one against an Eastern Conference team like the Heat.

    This is the penulitmate game before the All-Star break, so I hope our team comes out with energy and give it their all!

    I like it but Dallas is now tied with OKC in the standings so it might be them too.

    Both Zion and Ingram missed their last game with ankle injuries. It would be big if either one was out.
