    If the Blazers lose tonight, it is a definite letdown game, which while disappointing, would be kind of understandable.

    Yeah, my jinx senses are tingling HARD. I have a bad feeling about this game.

    Heat TV guy on the radio right now, says Bam Adebayo will be starting in Whiteside's place tonight. I'll be very interested to see how he performs against Nurkic.

    Looks like a classic Miami center - undersized workhorse. He looks to be a 13pt/10reb/3ast in 36 minutes guy. Shoots FTs well (72%). Doesn't foul a ton. Should be interesting to see him go against Collins and Ed after Nurk sits for 44 minutes. :lol:

    So no Wade or Whiteside tonight, huh?

    We are the luckiest team in basketball right now. But I'll take it. We're not going to win them all....eventually, we ARE going to lose. It's just a matter of when and to whom.

    Get that win tonight. GO BLAZERS!

    Heat don’t really have great need to win this game as much as we do, I can see us slipping up if we let our foot off the gas but I’m confident we take every single game seriously now.

    I would say the incentive is pretty close to ours. We are in 3rd, 3 games in the loss column from 7/8th.
    They are tied in the loss column for 7/8th....but only 3 games from 3rd.

    That's not how reverse jinxes work.

    Have a fun game!

    They are still in race for 3 seed but if they lose and Milwaukee wins, they fall to 8th.

    By the way, on 2K, I lost to Heat by about 45 points.
