    There’s something wrong with your foundation if this is where your head is, sorry not sorry.

    I don't watch the Warriors, haven't done so in several years. The media hype surrounding them and Lebron have made those two things I refuse to put myself through. I will make an exception and watch the game tonight with the sound off. Which is fine with me, I'm usually always doing something while I have the game on anyway.

    Go Blazers!

    So many brothers in the game: Tony Brothers, Splash Brothers, Curry Brothers, and Clank Brothers (Aminu and Moe).

    Hoping Atlanta or Memphis gets #1

    Craziest would be Philly.

    Hood is participating in shooting drills - Casey says nothing noticeable.

    Things I'm looking out for:

    Kanter's offensive rebounding: Can he take advantage of Looney / Green at center? If he can, it could force Kerr to play Bogut more which gives us someone to attack in pnr.

    Hood and Harkless post ups: Expect Curry to be hidden on whoever plays the 3. Need to take advantage / make Curry work defensively.

    Bench minutes: Played a huge role vs Denver and should have advantage again in this series.

    KD being out is also underrated by most: Allows us to get away with having both Harkless and Aminu off the floor like we were able to vs Denver. Gives Dame somewhere to hide defensively as well.

    Who does everyone think will attempt the first 30 foot shot? Dame or Steph?

    It is difficult to answer. I keep going back and forth between the two but I keep going back to Lillard.

    How you?

    Heard some stat that gsw is 28-1 or something when KD is out and Steph is playing.

    Sure is a shame it'll bd 28-2 after tonight.

    I want to see him icing that shit every time he sits down.

    My Urologist says "Blazers in 6". So there you go.

    Mind you, this is a man who broke my cock, so take that for what you will.
