Since it's free, I'm picking Blazers to win series.

Lakers have the Pope on there side.

Pope always gives us trouble with the three ball.

I appreciate Jordan Kent giving us the rundown on our futility against the Lakers in the playoffs lol.

I actually like what Stotts said pregame to Brook: Wants to try and make Bron and Brow shooters, and keep them out of the paint as much as possible. Of course we will live and die by the 3 as usual, but I just hope Stotts plays it smart and plays big. Would love to see Dame, CJ and GTJ on a rotation at the guard spots, and keep two on the floor at all times, and rarely have all three playing at once, but each player going 100% balls out when on the floor.

Melo, Gabriel and Rio need to hold down the SF & PF Spots, do their jobs well and play smart. We'll need Olympic Melo each night. If we get it, it will rub off onto the young guys.

Nurkic & Whiteside split the C duties, with flashes of the twin towers, at the right moment to strike with it.

RIP CITY BABY!!!

THey're letting both teams be physical so far, which is a pleasant surprise.

I really do love Wenyen. I hope he sticks around. He's got all the physical abilities, he just needs refined skills.

F'n refs.

Both of those on Gabriel were bogus.

Lakers getting good outside looks for the most part but they just aren't falling. I think I'd rather them get those good outside looks than that unfortunate drive by LeBron.

Another phantom call.... Stotts better not fall in love with GTJ at the 3.

Oh no. Mario in the game. Many concerns.

Stotts has been flawless so far in the rotations IMO.

My major fears for this series:

Kuzma. Morris. Pope. Green.

These are guys who can and have gotten hot against us in the past, albeit in regular season games, and that is a real fear of mine.

God I love Jusuf.

Nurkic is looking better than AD. Hopefully the refs "PUT SOME RESPECT ON HIS NAME"

I cower in fear at what the Lakers are going to do to Hassan.
