Stopping one of the best players in the league right now is not simple.
He scored 41 last night and made it look effortless

If the Pels do happen to play Portland, I'm sure one of the caterers that provides pre-game meals to Portland would put a little bit of laxative in his food. That will be about the only way we'll slow down Lillard at this point.

I think it would be a great series. Watching Dame and a AD go back and forth last night was awesome. The game had a playoff atmosphere and the refs were letting them play on both sides.

I hated that we lost, but it was one of the more entertaining games of the year.

That was not the Portland you would get in a series. They we're dog tired, mentally and physically. They just had their most draining game of the year 45 hours before and came in last night at 70 percent, if that.

And yet, the Pels still blew it. What's more likely - McCollum plays much better than he did last night or our scrub role players play much better?

We all know the answer. Portland would win in 5

lillard was the best player on the court last nite and one of the best I’ve ever seen in person. The dude has taken the superstar leap

AD was pretty special, too. And is the better player


But seeing Dame live was awesome

Not to mention our best defensive player (Harkless) didn’t play because he’s going to get his knee scoped. He’s been crucial in the Blazers’ success on the defensive side of the ball.

And the Pels are coming off an insane stretch of games that has been just as draining mentallly and physically, were missing Rondo, had Clark and AD injured in game, and Solo still on a minutes restriction and not in full shape. We were maybe 70% if that.

McCollum likely plays better, but we also very likley shoot better than 16.7% from deep and don't have a season low in 3PM. Blazers were missing Harkless, but no guarantee he will be back for the playoffs.

Harkless defends really well, but is that better than AFA's energy and relentless attitude along with evan turner rattling in 3s? Maybe not.

How about the numerous idiotic turnovers jrue and AD had, where rondo likely mitigates that?

Obviously give me San Antonio at this point, but they're more likely to be a 6-8 seed than a 4 or 5 seed.

I want Portland or OKC. It'd be a damn fun match up. They call the fouls (like nurkic stiff arming ad out the way) than the big oaf isn't beating us inside repeatedly. They don't call a foul and it's a bloodbath match up like last night. Either way, it's a 6 or 7 game series.

They won there this season, without Davis.
