    Every team is tired. This team needs to buck up, stop feeling sorry for themselves, go have some fun at the Rockies game to loosen the necktie squeezing their collective necks, and go out and WIN the last 2 games. IT'S A GAME! They look like they aren't having any fun. If CJ's tired, quit jacking his jaws on the radio, and get some extra Z's. Every team is in the same boat right now. Go have some fun today at the game, it's sunny and beautiful here, and remember ,you're in it together, and go out and play for each other tomorrow night. Resting and "throwing out the white flag in Denver "philosophy makes me want to puke. Go Blazers!!

    Look its easy to point our losses again and again and again like some of you have done. But, there is nothing the Blazers could do about that now. While I am sure they would love to go back in time to change the error of their way and win some of those shoulda coulda wouldas, but they can't. What they can do is get some rest, hit the hot tub, go to that rockies game like @tykendo advised, loosen up and then go into the game sunday with some fight, like a 3rd place team should. Sounds like Davis will return this game. More Baldwin less Pat. Feed the Beast. Have fun. Win.

    This game will be a blow out. Denver is fighting for a playoff spot. We know that Denver plays well at home and the Blazers hardly wins in there. Murray and Will the Thrill puts up some big numbers with a Win.

    I'm hoping Nurk wishes the Nuggets a nice summer after we kick their butts

    Would like to see a “None Of The Above’ choice in the poll.

    Sounds like you're rooting for Denver. Gahbige KJ. Dame plays well in Denver, and will score 60 if he has too.

    Nah I always want to be negative so the Blazers can hear me out and proves me wrong. Extra motivation for them.

    I get it. Man! Apologies to KJ, but he's been so "ooh they need rest, they need a binky", I figured he posted that. But I get the motivation now. I'm going to the game with my Blazer fan Daughter, and my best buddy Nugget Freak Dave. I want this one bad. That last one in Feb. was tough to take. Blazers can win this. They just need to buck up, follow their leader, and have some fun.

    That post is long winded. I used to write them all the time. My writing skills are sub par so it's easy to mistake the take.

    I can think of many ways to die that would be more enjoyable than seeing any of those teams winning the championship.

    This team isn't tired. We are missing two of our best and most important players. Plain and simple.

    It's Stotts fault.

    Looks like we're getting Ed Davis back for this game. That should be a sizable boost for our second unit.

    CJ looks tired. Most of his shots are hitting front rim. Not surprising considering how much he runs.
