    Griz in four. This team has taken too many body blows with our injuries.

    Do they always give this much time between games? I don't remember it like that last year.

    I know Jeff Green has been hurt but he played a whopping 49 seconds tonight. Anyone know why?

    Judging from the official word, it looks like all three of their guys will be good to go on Sunday. We'll still be down Dorell and Wes, and possibly Arron. We're hurt more for sure.

    Rumors are he's hurt their chemistry. They're better without him.

    No rhyme or reason for it. But I will take the Blazers in 6.

    Assuming that there is a level that has been held back the entire time. I don't think they have to play Grizzlies ball. They just have to up their game up. And play with fire on both ends. Take one in Memphis. I think they get their swag.

    There should be a Blazers by forfeit option. No way Memphis wants any of THIS team.

    I always remember them playing every other day with an extra travel day. It does seem like a lot but maybe that will be in our favor for adjustments and game planning. And also health. As a fan I hate it but it probably the best for our team
