Game 42: Portland vs Houston 6:30PM SNW/ESPN

Impressive win. But knowing the blazers we probably lose the next game by 40

Lillard and CJ continue to get better integrating Melo into a fluid attack. When Nurkic and Collins are back, this team could be the best we've had since the 99 team that collapsed in the WCF against the Lakers.

Maybe but it might be too late in the game to make noise as we’ve already lost a lot of games. As the famous saying goes “there’s always next year”

Good to see the team win, although I have learned to have little faith in carrying over momentum with this squad...

I don't think it's any surprise that if the Blazers win the Rebounding, 3pt%, TO, FTA categories they stand a good chance of winning a game.

After watching, I do believe some of Houston dropping the game was due to their B2B. It's a shame the Blazers can't play every team when they are on the back end of a B2B.

Everything that is worthwhile is hard to do.

Ya know, that '99 collapse was a 4th quarter collapse in game 7. Blazers almost shocked the world by forcing a game 7. We were down 3-1 after the 4 games. It was supposed to be over in game 5, but it wasn't. Then, it was supposed to be over in game 6, but it wasn't. Then, after 3 quarters of game 7, it appeared Blazers were set to shock the world, but they didn't.

Shaq did whatever he wanted in that series. The Blazers had to contact the league about it to have a fair chance at winning. The Blazers should have won the championship that year (sigh).
