Oh, is there a Blazer game tonight? :o

After about 38 years of watching basketball, I don't know why I'm nervously freaking out so much about this series.

If this series ain't over in 5, it might be decided in 7.

This would be a great night for a Nurkic sighting to pump the crowd and elevate the Blazers players.

Agreed. That would be a great sighting tonight. I'm surprised we didn't see him in either of the first 2 games

I mentioned before that if he has a cast above his knee going to a game could be a real ordeal, especially if he has to pee. Below the knee cast would be a lot easier. I'd assume he's on crutches

True, but he just needs to make an appearance (5 minutes tops), then leave, go to the locker room or a suite, or goes home.

I've got absolutely no feeling for what may happen tonight. I think this game could be a coin-flip for who wins.

I haven't been this excited and terribly, gut-wrenching nervous for a game since game six against the Rockets in 2014.

So nervous, so scared. So scervous.

Same here. I really want to see this series over tonight, but I'm worried about it.

I think if Blazers bring their A game they win, but they'll have to match the intensity of OKC. Dame has to be on...no flat halves, especially the 2nd half. And Aminu and Harkless need to match what they did in game 4

it would be helpful if Curry hit some shots too

I may or may not have a drink or two tonight. Which way do you guys think I'll pivot?

Whatever the hardest and oldest. Because you're an old curmudgeon and it fits you, and it's why we all love you.

Quietly confident about this game. Don't wanna jinx the team but I think they come out firing and blow OKC away. GO BLAZERS

If we can come out like Philly has so far I'd really appreciate that.

I wonder how much intensity OKC will bring? I feel like they've already reached their peak intensity at home, and may come out feeling defeated.

The Blazers will need to bring their intensity though, I feel like they didn't really have it in game 3.
