Come on, it's the Blazers. They used to defend the Rose Garden as well as the Jazz did the Delta Center, but those days are gone; the Blazers can't defend anything anywhere. Pyrzbilla's a Beast, and Steve Blake and backup shooting guard Juan Dixon are a helluva duo, but everything depends on whether Z-Bo decides to put forth some real effort. Even if he does, we should win this going away.

jazz need to win this game to remain in the playoff hope. The lose aganst the clippers was way likely to happen, and we need to win games that we are supposed to win. So we better win.

nice one! I predicted 109/89 I was 7 points off on the jazz score. But right on with the blazers.

Way to go! I won a bunch on vBookie with this one.

OTOH, I was way off on the Blazers' starting lineup. Looks like Nate has decided to give the bench kids a lot of playing time; he wants to see who's worth keeping for next season. Bet he wishes he could lose guys like Darius Miles (talented player, but zero effort--kinda like his acting career) and some of the others.

Ya I saw your bet, I won 15000! And it's almost impossible to predict the blazers lineup, they are always changing it.

Wow on the fifteen grand!!

As for the Blazers' lineup, earlier in the season, Nate kept changing the lineup to try and find a combination that worked. That didn't happen :laugh: Now he's doing it to see who's worth having around next season. Hint to Coach McMillan: Keep Telfair, Blake and Dixon, and try to keep Pryzbilla. Get the rest of them--including Zach--jobs at Mickey Dees.
