    @Wade Garrett ... he is called Joker because he can do so many things on the floor. Like a Joker can be any card you want it to be.

    I couldn't really answer the poll question without knowing the score of the game.....If behind, offensive rebounds are helpful making a run...if you're ahead..defensive rebounds help protect the lead...all about possessions which you get either way

    Good overview of game 1 from Dame.

    Seems pretty aware of what the team needs to improve on.

    I like that the Blazers should be more acclimated to the altitude tomorrow.

    That layup Dame is talking about that he 'missed': He was fouled in the air - forearm to the body pushed him out of his trajectory, toward the baseline and out of bounds. Obvious foul: No call

    There is a high probability that Denver wins game 2. What will be interesting, is how/if the Blazers come back in games 3&4.

    Blazers in 6.

    Denver isn't that good. I'm not impressed by them at all.

    Unfortunately, it takes about 3 weeks to build up the additional hemoglobin to adapt to high altitude.

    Barkley just said Stotts should put Alex Lin on the Joker.

    Well then the obvious solution is that each player should have donated a pint of blood before leaving Portland, and get it put back before tomorrow's game.

    Not that it's a big deal but you just misspelled his name while making fun of Chuck, it's Len.

    Isaiah Thomas. His tenure as GM of the Knicks is all one needs to know about his talent evaluation skills.
