    Yeah, I'm trolling, but just to get you all to wake up and realize that this series ain't even a serious matchup. The Blazers, regardless of their past with injury advantages/disadvantages, certainly got the advantage this time. So, as I told you, don't worry about it, the Blazers are a shoo-in. Maybe next round they'll get a team with all their players so at least the games will be competitive. There aini't no honor in whoopin' on the Nuggets without Murray and Barton, or with the latter at 50%. So, keep the whoopee down until next round. Then, if your team wins that one, you all can come out and start celebrating. This Nugget series doesn't mean squat. It's like beating PSU-----no biggie. The Blazers and their fans can say all they want about the big bad Nuggets and their #3 seed, but that was earned in the past by a team that doesn't even resemble the one assembled for this upcoming series. At least the earlier version of the Nuggets would have provided a competitive series.

    Denver is only favored by 1 point at home. Vegas is implying we are the better team.

    The Blazers are the better team when the Nuggets are missing 40 % of their starters. Denver sucks with what they got left. I would set the Blazers as 8 point favorites.

    Works for me. If by game time they are missing 100% of their starters, all the better!

    That's kind of crazy considering Jokic is going to be the league MVP, and there's a 50% chance that he doesn't make it out of the first round. So the league decided not to market him at all. Dame and Jokic are pretty much the most fun guys to watch in the league.

    I guess they'd rather go with bigger markets and Luka?

    The Clippers and Mavs have a game on NBATV too. I don't know if the Lakers and Suns will have one that's not on ESPN, ABC or TNT but from what we have in front of us, this just seems like another overreaction by you guys. You got a small market complex.

    I feel that with the players around Nurk this year he will get some better looks and his assist numbers will be better.
