Once again for anyone who didn’t see it in the other thread. Ant is not on the injury report.

I had hoped this would be an easy one with Lillard out, but the trailblazers have been very good lately, 7-4 against tough competition. Nurkic is playing well, RoCo is better since rejoining the starters, and Anthony Simmons [edit “Anfernee Simons.” Texted quick when I was getting gas, and I knew better!) has been terrific.
Good challenge for our wolfies!

Would be nice to have Bev back to guard the fake Ant. I mean he should be Anf.

I swear, every season, in the last quarter Portland always goes on some massive win streak, like 10 straight or 15 of their last 20, I won't count them out until they are close to being mathematically eliminated lol. They always have a ridiculous run in the second half.

We need to lock them all 48 minutes.

I hope not, but you’re right. Dame has said he may come back at the end of the season if they are competing, not playing for lottery balls.

Could be a tough game but we need to win this. Also, our defense has been dropping, we need to pick it up again fast.

This offense will become even better the day KAT realizes that he isn't Jokic. Dude stop with those fancy passes...they mostly result in turnovers

Not a good start. Turnovers and uninspired play do that.
