    Yikes.

    Kevin Love dropped 16 and 16 on Houston in the game on November 7th, and he's currently riding a 29-game double-double streak.

    Mike Beasley's still battling the lingering effects of a sprained left ankle, but had a torrid second half of November + December. He went 5-12 for 15 in the first meeting, and was in foul trouble down the stretch. Tough cover for Shane at 6'10''... I wonder how PPat would fare against him?

    This game has me terrified, the vultures are circling and it could be lights out tomorrow night. Note, the Blazers play the Kings @home so a loss here would potentially put us 6 games out(7 with the tiebreaker) with 36 games to go.

    Chuck and Patterson need to go up against Kevin. Hill won't be able to handle him. Luis should come off the bench,he should be able to score in the paint against Love. Shane is more likely to do better against Beasley than PPat.

    If Beasley is healthy, I think this is a toss up game.

    Really? Your still pining for the 8th seed? Let me ask you this. What does getting destroyed in the first round do for the players and organization?

    Honestly, I'd rather rebuild ASAP but I also don't sit in front of my TV hoping they lose. IF they do, silver lining but if Morey is stuck on trying to contend and some folks around here also rather go for the magical 8th seed then they might find that information useful to calm their expectations.
