The Games are just too expensive to keep getting to them. I went to a couple in the first round but the prices jumped another couple hundred between the two series. The other problem is i actually pay for Comcast so i am hamstrung as it is. Funny part is at this point no more of the games are even on Comcast.

Tonight will be another pivotal game 3. Obviously the Blazers need to get this one if they want to have a chance at making this a series. I think they have a really good chance at it. They can play with this team and i am sure they will be ready for everything GS will be bringing. The 3 days off will come in handy as the next 4 games are all on a one day turnaround should the Blazers push the series to 6 games. Getting both of these home games could in fact get them in a position to push these guys to 6 or 7 games. That would be quite an accomplishment. If the Blazers win this one there is little doubt in my mind you will see Curry in game 4. Correct me if i am wrong here but the last i heard Curry is still out for this game but it is anybodies guess for game 4? I am sure things start to get dicey for the Warriors if they lose a couple games in this series.
My thoughts on Curry coming back? I know he is the MVP and he does have an impact but this is still a team game and he is just one man. I am much more impressed by the Warriors as a whole. At this point the Blazers need to win 4 of the next 5 games against what might be the best team that has ever played in the NBA record wise. Just winning the next 2 would put them alone in being the only team to beat Golden State 3 times in the entire season and the only time the Warriors would have lost 2 times in a row all season. This task is daunting to say the least.
It all starts with one game and that game is TONIGHT!
Go Blazers!
Kjironman is a fan!!!
 
Game day!!

No team has beaten the GSW twice this year. We beat them by 30 earlier in the year. They're an amazing team, but I think we can get 'em again. We're due for a good game!
 
Hark needs to play tight on Klay and we need to watch out for Ezeli, he's gonna get more minutes tonight, maybe even take Varajaos

If Hark breathes on Klay wrong he gets a foul, that much is already known.
 
Float like a butterfly and sting like a bee!!! Rock the house Blazers! Let's hope Darkwebs makes 8 more of these game threads at least!
 
Let's go, Blazers! Warriors are in for a rude awakening when they find out their "roaracle" is nothing but a cub's whimper compared to the playoff time roars at the Rose Garden.
 
Thats time to take care of our bussiness, lets win that one guys! This game is game for Lillard. He need step-up for we can make this win. I believe! lets go guuys

Well, we know where Sly's head is at. The first three things he mentions are the slots, the booze, and the bell-hops. :devilwink:
 
Wtf... So many warrior fans. I think I'm gonna be sick
 
An "expert" on ESPN radio, didn't catch his name, was saying that the Blazers should start Crabbe instead of Mo because Mo's lack of outside shooting allows the Warriors to play off of him. He said starting Crabbe would open things up more for Lillard and CJ.

I thought it was an interesting point.
 
Keys to advancing to the Western Conference Finals:

Harkless guards Thompson
Push the ball up the court, make or miss
Lillard and McCollum get to the FT line ten times each
Crabbe, Harkless, Hendo and Aminu need to combine for 45 points(I may have been a tad overzealous with asking for 65 points)
Plumlee needs to average 15 rebounds
45% from the 3 point line

Do all or most of these things and The Portland Trail Blazers will be hosting games in the Western Conference Finals!
