At this point there is a good chance that Durant misses the entire series.
If the Blazers can't beat the Warriors without Durant then what chance will they ever have to win the title?

Imagine having the luxury of resting your best player for the entire WCF because you know your team is still stacked enough to win it comfortably anyways. Insane.

A lot of fans think that the only defense you can play is switching...man to man defense is a lost art.....
I'm so tired of the typical......

Yay a perfectly executed fast break by the Blazers. Fundamentals are sexy.

Portland doing a better job on the initial screens and off ball screens.

I'm probably never gonna watch the Harden Paul led Rockets ever again. That's how disgusted I am with them

Klay Thompson going 1 on 1 is a win for Portland.

Aminu is not ready for this level of competition. May never be.

Literally zero reason to play Aminu over Collins right now... He's atrocious.

I have to say, Dray's raised his level of play in the playoffs so much. His contributions have been indispensable on both ends.

Lillard plays absolutely no defense.

Aminu and Harkless have those open 3's all game. If they make those consistently, Portland has a chance.

He’s a badass in the playoffs always. I dislike him as a person, but respect him a lot as a b-ball player.

I'm guessing Portland will not shoot 80% from 3 this game

I ain’t watching this series closely. Does anyone really think this will be a good series at all? Such a huge disparity of talent....
