    I kind of do to.
    Something happened? Not exactly sure what other than Collins?
    What i do know is the Blazers seemed to over power them a bit?
    Home court has it's advantages but this seemed like a bit more than that. Just a little more nasty to the game than what Denver wanted to deal with maybe?

    Denver put us in a corner and thought we would curl up into a bawl. When we came back out with a snarl, they didnt expect it and I hope it..... no. I KNOW it will carry over into game 7.

    Ye of little faith..
    I changed my Mothers Day activities to today early last week.
    I'm very happy the game is 12:30...i simply cannot stand waiting all day besides I'm down to biting knuckles since the nails are gone!
    And...my GF and i were planning on going to the coast mid-week, that's been postponed.

    I know exactly what you mean.
    The Blazers have figured something out. The offensive flow and defense rotations looked "confident" for lack of a better word.
    I think Dame found a path to the hoop and i thimk it has to do with Enes or whomever setting the pick closer to mid court. Thats a good wat to attack the trap.

    My weekend is already jacked. During a routine kayake survey yesterday to check on the 3 American Oystercatcher nests I found this week on one of my research routes, I came across one of the breeding adults with fishing line wrapped around its legs, cutting off all circulation. Spent all of last night trying to trap the poor bird to no avail. Heading back out now with a couple of new trap methods. If I can get her today, I'll be fine for game 7. If she eludes me again today, I'll probably have to miss the game. Wish me luck. This bird needs it.

    Honestly, it looked to me like G6 was officiated differently than the previous 5 games. Our offense still looked like dog shit - we just happened to hit some tough shots, and Terry FINALLY played Zach instead of Aminu and Hood instead of Harkless. Also, Millsap finally had an off night. I don't think we've figured out anything.

    That said, we have Dame and I'm never gonna bet against him. I don't expect to win, but I believe we can win because of him.

    Neither have I. Looking forward to it since I'm keeping my expectations low.

    I also just really don't want to have to hear about how Denver was masterful in setting up this bracket. I want them to lose and get their just desserts.

    We did move the ball much better in Game 6 than Game 5.

    Man, I just want to get to the conference finals and everything happens after that is all gravy. Who would have thought that we are one win away without our Beast.

    The whole point of bringing in guys like Curry was to put shooters around Dame....... and then we play Dame with Aminu and Harkless. It doesn't make sense.

    I agree I think it's making Dame's job harder and wearing him out.
