    Curry (concussion) completed a workout Saturday, but requires clearance by the NBA before playing against the Trailblazers, the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
    Spin: Curry has missed the last two games after suffering the concussion on Monday. If he misses Saturday's game, he should not be out too much longer. Kent Bazemore and/or Nemanja Nedovic would run the point.

    Personally I want Curry to play, I want Iggy to play, I wanted Rose to play so when we beat them, there are no * comments on sites saying we wouldn't beat them "if" Again, when we beat Chicago, all across the media it was, Rose goes down and Bulls lose..not Blazers win with incredible grit and hard work. I don't believe Golden State's homegames have any impact on this version of the Blazers...I don't think the team feels that way either..hoping for a big win tonight! Go Blazers!!!

    Just face it, if/when we win another championship, no one will care about us. All the sports people will immediately turn their focus to baseball. No one will care. It is up to us to enjoy our wins when they happen.

    I really don't give a fuck what they care about as long as we get a ring! Allen would spare no expense for the ring either!

    Last time we player Golden State, batum was on curry for all the 3rd and 4th. He completely shut him down in the third. I wonder if they do that again?

    That should just be the assignment from the get-go. Don't know why we always wait.

    The reason we wait is we are a better second half team. Stotts saves all the energy for the half that truly matters. I actually agree with his strategy. I wonder how we are defensively in the second half? We usually always bring it then.

    We have a young team... we can play 4 quarters like that. Why not? (not saying tonight, but all season)

    But we need Batum healthy. This season is a marathon, so we must play to stay healthy

    Fouls. Don't want Batum having 3 fouls going into the half.

    I for one would rather at least give Lillard/Williams the chance to guard the man at their position before trying the Batum alternative. Especially considering Lillard is early into his second season, and despite his defensive shortcomings, he's put effort into improving, and needs all of the experience he can get. He'll never be able to learn how to defend other top PG's in the league if he's never given the chance to actually guard them.

    BTW is anyone else's league pass complete shit? The last week it won't play more than 5 mins without stopping and giving me a message about "technical difficulties". I thought it was my connection at first but I've done a little research and it seems that its consistently crappy? I guess it was only good during the trial period?

    Fugging NBA.
