Well, the problem is that we usually look good in the first half, even on the road. Its the second half that is the issue...

If Darko is out the whole game, does Minnesota go small ball or play Koufos more?

We need Darko and Pek to massage eachother's ankles in the locker room, have a nice bonding experience, then look eachother in the eye and say "we are eastern european bad boys, we will not let sore ankles keep us out of this war!"






Probably won't happen though.

Are we really being torched by Rudy Fernandez? Really?

Think we have to play Koufas. Portland's bigs are too athletic to make small ball all that beneficial

Is Koufos beneficial?

We have a chance. Maybe we'll get to see some rudy fernandez.

Darko vs camby/vanilla gorilla is the matchup of the night.


I think we'd be better off if he was going to limp out there and shoot 3-16 from the floor while not putting too much pressure on our defense. Rudy has been pretty awful lately, but knowing our luck and how much he apparently hates us he will probably shoot 7-9 from downtown, with 4 of those in the last 3 minutes, erasing our lead.
Seriously though, I've got a good gut feeling about tonight. That could just be the original chicken sandwich with cheese from BK talking, though. We'll see.


I f :censored: ing knew Rudy would kill us.

Rudy's slump is over! Another player, another cure only we could provide!

Did Jim Pete just suggest use physical means to take out Rudy?

I think Shaq could drop a trey on us. Worst perimeter D.
