    Terrific. Harden better not be counting on getting too many calls. And the Rockets better watch out for flops.

    Made the trip from Vancouver, BC to see the game tonight. My record so far at the Moda Center: Reg season: 0-1, Playoffs: 1-0. Let's go Rox!

    We need to get the morale up in here. I can be of some assistance.

    Warning! Not safe for work. Lots of babes and butts and whatnot.

    He usually kicks Portland's ass during the regular season.

    I always start watching on ESPN. But if we get down big, I switch to ROOT, hoping it gets better. If it doesn't get better, I'll stay on ROOT. If it doesn, back to ESPN.

    I'm not superstitious..

    I remember this night. I was getting so pumped for the game but then 30 minutes from tip off, the power went out. It was raining hard that night and it caused blackouts throughout most of my part of town.

    It was rough because the only thing I had to listen to was a hand-crank radio which was iffy at best. The power came on right as the 4th quarter began so I missed all the good stuff since it was a blowout the rest of the way.

    He is averaging 44.5 against them this season. 44 the first game and 45 the second, maybe he will go for 50? I think if Harden gets a 50 point game and a win tonight, he will be squarely in the lead for MVP.

    Oddly enough, LMA averaged 44.5 the first two games against us in the playoffs. LOL

    Tony Brothers?

    Welp...I'm prepared for an atrocious officiating job. I guess I appreciate the early notice.

    Blazers have no answer for Harden with Wes Matthews out, but we conversely have no answer for the Aldridge/Lopez big man combo without Dwight. Going to need to put an emphasis on closing out the defensive possession with good rebounding.

    So pumped for this one due to the extra wait.

    Gonna be a playoff atmosphere. Excited to see how Jones/DMo/Smith handle Aldridge tonight. DMo needs to box out and limit Robin on the offensive glass tonight, that's going to be a key aspect in this one.

    No Matthews, but Afflalo isn't an awful option for Portland to go to vs. Harden. He can ball. But Afflalo isn't stopping Harden if Beard has his jumper going. Hopefully that J is there and Harden puts on an MVP show tonight.

    Sage Steele thinks Harden is leading the MVP race.
