Key Matchup

Brooks vs Lillard

[Plague]

I am thinking Cousins will not be starting, call it a gut feeling.

[cvietti23]

I'm hoping he gets a DNP-CD tonight and see what this team is like w/out boogie and reke again. They looked great last game

Hypnotize Travis Outlaw into believing that he's playing against Portland

Per Jason Jones: Evans is out and Cousins didn't make the trip to Portland.

[Jimmer55]

Portland is very solid at home. Just staying close will be a victory for me.

[sfgiants5518]

We beat Portland a few weeks ago in Portland.

Per Jason Jones: Evans is out and Cousins didn't make the trip to Portland.

I am actually happy with that. I liked the way the team played without them. Lets win another one without Demarcus.

[ZebraCity916]

Alright, I just turned the game on, someone tell me what the **** is going on!!!

I just saw James Johnson drain a long 2......

[ZebraCity916]

Per Jason Jones: Evans is out and Cousins didn't make the trip to Portland.

Big surprise!!!

[imbetterthanyou]

Everytime we play Portland I just shake my head that Damian Lillard was picked one spot after T-Rob

[iMac]

Hayes is a joke... I've never been a fan of undersized PF/C! Especially ones that can't jump

[ZebraCity916]

Thornton is chucking......

We're playing **** D.......

......and we're not taking care of the ball.

We're shittin' the bed, guys!!!
