    I'm not sure. But I will eat a turnover during the game in his honor.

    Am I the only one who thinks that this injury is being over-exaggerated so no one questions Turner about being benched or hurting his feelings?

    The only thing I'll say that is somewhat bad about Turner being out is he does defend Butler decently.

    I think for this particular game it hurts. He can help with Simmons and Butler.

    Hopefully this means we will see the Collins / Kanter pairing.

    I think there's a good chance of that.

    I am sure Collins can probably guard their back up PF Mike Scott, but that means he won't be around the rim to help Kanter.
    About half of Scotts shots are 3's.

    Odd time for a Blazers game. Hopefully the timing doesn't throw them off.

    Yeah it is a good thing they have been on EST for almost 4 days. (By game time)
    I love it has a fan though. Right after my Saturday morning workout and over before the afternoon starts.
    Although if we lose then it leaves me with the whole day to be grumpy.

    It gives Stotts a look at the 2nd group without Turner. I kind high and low posts look with Zach and Kanter due to Zach is decent passer.

    I actually have a classic double AA battery Sony Walkman that is great for listening to Wheels on the radio....if I could buy a blank cassette I could record it! Who says I'm not high tech!

    Is it a bad idea to have ET handle the ball when Dame/CJ get doubled the second they cross half court?
    It seems that Dame has a very hard time when this happens (and any team should do this when he gets hot). Why not let him move without the ball?
