    who wins?

    sacramento wins, they get better draft pick now

    we also win because im sure we just set a record for the most consecutive playoff appearance as a 5th seed

    blazers in 7, another heartbreaker

    The bench's performance may be more important than yao's.

    Rockets will win if Yao has his way with Oden. Rockets will loose if they can't make lob passes when Yao is fronted. The Yao being fronted problem has been existing all season and Adelman has not coached a solution( he should telling them to lob the pass or play a pick and roll) , so If
    I was Portland I would let Oden front Yao until the Rockets can lob pass or figure a way to score without Yao.

    I voted Portland in 7 but it could be in 6 as well. I don't see the Rockets making it, unlike the feeling that I had after the last home win. We have always crumbled under pressure in the playoffs since the Dream went into his declining years. Being on the road could prove fatal.

    Oden and Priz cannot front, their too slow. Aldridge might be able to.

    Przybilla might be even tougher than Oden.

    We will get past the Blazers in 6 games. After that the Lakers will sweep us.
