Beat The Blazers

Post by Camden [enjin:6601484] »

Adelman says he expects both DC and Martin to play tonight, which makes me feel as though we have a very good chance to win. Portland's fourth game in five nights, and it's another on the road. They should be tired. Keep in mind that the Blazers have won their last two games on Lillard shots at the buzzer, so the last couple games have been close and down to the wire.

Wes Mathews always gets hot against us. In the past, however, there's been a point guard guarding him, which likely played into his favor. I expect if nothing more for Martin's length to bother him beyond the arc.

Love vs Aldridge. The top two power forwards in the game. Should be a great matchup between them.

Pekovic vs Lopez. I expect Lopez to get a couple blocked shots, but I really think Pek's going to be a handful for him all night. Just my opinion.

We're going to need Ricky to play like the guy several games ago. The 15 points and 8 assists type point guard from the other night. Lillard's going to get his; he's too good of a scorer. It's about limitiing efficiency, though. Hopefully Ricky can hold Lillard in check.

I have this as a win for Minnesota. Portland played a tough game against the Cavs last night while we rested. We're at home. We absolutely need to get this victory.

Good to see K-Marts scoring has returned, and Love already with 7 boards and 5 assists. Triple Double?

Why put Dante in this game? I just don't get what he gives us on a hobbled ankle. Great 1st quarter though.

Could Love AND Rubio get a triple double tonight? Have two teammates ever done that before?

Great Pass by Love and a great cut by JJ. That looked like the 90s Kings there.
