This is an important game for Portland. They want that 3rd seed to avoid the Warriors(assuming they finish 1st).
Not that I'm wishing it on them(well, maybe a little), but that team is due. It happened in 2016 with Bogut and cost them the title.
Uh everyone in the West is fighting for seeding. Portland loses and they can fall to 8th. This is a big game..
You sound like someone who’s never played competitively. That’s a freak injury, it could happen anytime during a game.
Like Stotts could've predicted this? You can't not play your best players in an important late season game because you're terrified of injuries.
You dorks are stating the obvious....all I'm saying is 2OT+ and I start to consider if it's worth risking playing my starters heavy minutes for one game.
