    I love to see X Blazers play, but truthfully, I had almost forgotten about Babbit ...Will be good to see if McRob gets any burn

    McBob is injured, so he won't be playing.

    It's not a shame for the Blazers. :)

    We need a little luck on our side if we're gonna make the Playoffs. We were lucky Milsap didn't play against us today.

    Again, win a lot or lose a lot. They've been winning more often than not, so continue. Fodder we will be, but at least it will get a lot of the fams excited

    my new favorite way to watch a blazer game is to DVR so I can fast forward all the commercials and free throws

    Catching another break with Dion Waiters out. Still 6 to 7 point dogs tonight according to Vegas. I like our chances as long as we don't let someone like Wayne Ellington have a career night. A win tonight and a 4/5 road trip would be huge. Denver's schedule: @ Hou tomorrow, then Cavs at home, then 6/7 games on the road . . . while we play 9 of our 12 final games at home. Let's go Blazers!

    Whenever I talk about watching former Blazers play like Nico or Wes.....for some reason Babbitt never enters my mind

    I want to change my predictions. Im a moron.

    I heard the other day that Wade is out for the rest oft he season. I then thought. There goes Miami's hot streak. We should own them now.



    Am I the only one really struggling to remind myself Wade is now a Bulls?
