    POR vs. PHI, 12/26/14

    PHI: 4-23...interesting, last place in the Titanic Division (Knicks are in 4th) but only 17 games back of the division, while NYK are 18 back. So there ya go.

    Our last game: W @ OKC, 115-111
    You know, the "clutch" PG who drills 3s all night long while the other PG commits silly fouls, gets dumb T's, misses FTs and bricks game-winning hero-heaves.
    That character.


    Their last game: W @ MIA, 91-87

    Gramps' Prediction Game

    Power Rankings/What to watch: Yeah, right. They're normally bad, and they're worse will all the "talent" they have out tonight. Let's face it, Tony Wroten is one half of the 2 NBA-caliber talents they have right now (that's right, MCW, you may not get minutes from Wild Will if you were in POR, which may be why we passed on you). But as Strenuus said below, any one of the guys who will start can go for 25, and after the fiasco at MIN earlier this season, I'm not taking any scrubs for granted. That said, we're as close to putting up a Bilbo tonight as we're going to get this year, with a depleted, worst-team-in-the-league, at home, day-after-Christmas game in front of the best fans in the NBA. We may see Claver in the 3rd quarter tonight.



    POR 131
    PHI 99

    The fact that we have at best split the season series with this sad franchise since 2001 is pathetic. No excuse to lose a game like this.

    I like how so many of them just look confused, like they took the portrait photo right after the coach explained the offense to them.

    Looks like a trap game to me. Hope this team stomps on them early and puts it away in a hurry.

    We don't scout them, then we don't adjust.

    cj does a radio show that's nationwide once a week and a lottery pick. I'm sure ONE person outside of the blazers fan base has listened to him and knows who he is.

    but, you know, you generalize, so i didn't expect you to grasp simple logic.

    We don't rely on them to have monster games. Nice try though

    Sure. At least we don't have 14 'no-name' players. Thank goodness.
