It is in San Antonio and unless Parker, Neal, or Hill have a big night, I don't see the Spurs having the scoring power to out score the Blazers. EDIT - Maybe if Jefferson comes up big, forgot about him but even then, I'm not scared.

Especially since Portland is hungry for a win after last night's tough loss. I see Portland winning by 8-14 points tonight.

Even with Roy sitting out, we're still a tough matchup against the Lakers. We've proved that a couple times in the past I believe, even last year nabbing a win against the Lakers with Roy sitting out if my memory isn't playing games with me.

It's possible for them to catch up but it's highly unlikely in my opinion, despite all the injuries the Spurs have suffered and with how hot the Lakers have been.

I was not driving, was in the passenger seat, hah hah. Though this is the second car accident I've been in were I've been in the passenger seat, the first one wasn't nearly as bad as this one. And the investigation is still going on, I can't wait to see what bullshit the other two drivers came up with though because it literally makes no sense as to how we got in the accident unless one of them was doing something illegally. I'll keep you guys posted as things go down. Though good news for my mom, she'll be getting a new car that will be automatic (about a year ago, she started complaining about her car and how she was sick of always shifting but was only less then 2 years away from having it paid off) and her payments will be much lower, about $150 bucks lower. But still, under these circumstances....yeah, you get the point.

The reason I haven't been posting as much as I have (especially this weekend), is because Friday morning, I got into a car accident that totaled the car we were driving. The air bags deployed saving both my mom's and my life. Happened at 6:50AM about 5 minutes away from home. We came out of the accident scratch free and bruise free. It was a three car accident. I wasn't paying any attention as I was looking down playing a game on m phone.... Here is what happened. We were in the left lane, I believe the car in front of us was in the left lane. He hit a lady in front of him who was turning right. Now obviously, that doesn't make any sense at all since there is both a left and right lane. So either the lady was making an illegal right turn...or he was in the right lane, saw that she was turning right, decided to try and go around her by going into the left lane. He ended up clipping the driver side of her car sending her spinning down the street she was turning, he then slammed on his breaks. We didn't have any time at all to break (though my mom did) and she tried to stop but smashed right into the back of him. Like I said, either she was making an illegal right turn or he was either trying to go around her when she was turning by going into the left lane, or he was in both lanes for some stupid reason and clipped her. Her car had a ding or so on her driver side as well as a flat passenger tire. His car's back bumper was messed up (from us smashing into him at 35MPH, the speed limit) and our car was toast. So one of them initiated the three car crash. The guy behind us almost hit us as well but was able to avoid it. I wish we would have gotten his name but he drove off because he had to go to work, though he did check to make sure we were okay, which we were. So after the entire thing ended, filed the report, contacted the insurance companies, my mom and I still went back to work at about 10:30AM. The reason we went back to work is because our work does NOT offer any sick or personal days (no, I'm 100% serious). We get 1 week of vacation on the anniversary of the time we started and that's it. I actually woke up Saturday not sore at all (thinking I was going to be since I wasn't feeling anything on Friday). I even still went and played basketball with my friends earlier tonight (Sunday). The entire accident did get me thinking a lot though, mainly about my little sister (11yrs old) who could of had to grow up without her mom and older brother. Thankfully, my sister was not in the car at all but it was the one thing that I first thought of once I found out we were both okay. I actually started crying just thinking about it and even now...it still brings a tear to my eyes. But we're okay and that's all that matters. I should be picking up my activity around here starting tomorrow hopefully. I've missed this place, hah.

If you look at the +/- for both the teams, the Raps all have tons of -20+ of the Warriors have tons of +20s, lol. http://scores.espn.go.com/nba/boxscore?gameId=310325009

Batum with 4 points in .9 seconds. Matthews steals from Ginobili with 8 seconds left, runs down the court (down by 2), passes to Aldridge (or Batum, can't remember) who then passes back to Matthews in the paint. Matthews pump fakes, throws up a layup with it being contested, looks like a foul but nothing is called. Batum gets it and throws up the ball and gets fouled with .9 seconds left. He hits 2 free throws to tie the game. San Antonio calls a time out, they inbound it on their side but throw it straight out of bounds with NO time coming off the clock. Then a timeout for Portland and Andre Miller throws the most perfect pass to Batum who lays it in at the buzzer for the game. A truly amazing sequence.

Tough break for yet another team fighting for their playoff chances down the stretch of these last few weeks of the season.

I agree with this right here. Though, all you gotta do is say no, block him on AIM and block him on the forums. I'm pretty sure there is an option in which you can ignore members and when they post, their posts wont show up in topics.

I guess so, would have been better if the game was closer and not a 35 point raping. Portland 111, Washington 76 Not mad in the least. I wouldn't care if they had 50 blocks that night, as long as Portland wins, it's all good. Hah hah.

I [expletive]ing hate packing peanuts. Back when I did all the returns, they would get everywhere if you weren't careful and if they did, the wind would blow that shit all over the place. I hated it.

I love how JaVale stares him down as they're getting blown out. No need to act like a punk about it, lol. Though I gotta admit though, it was a great block/steal by him.

Tough loss for the Grizz. I was looking forward to seeing what they could do in the playoffs when they got him back. Damn...

That's freaking awesome, great find man.

Why is it gay? Because I like and support a player? So I should stop liking him just because he got traded to a different team? You're not making any sense and are now just looking completely ignorant. Especially saying it's gay.

And it looks like Lowry has been named the Player of the Week for the West. http://basketball.realgm.com/wiretap/212421/Lowry_LeBron_Named_Players_Of_The_Week

I completely agree with Real on this. What Yugo said was very stupid and just an ignorant comment. I'm a fan of TMac because I like him as a player, I like his game, had a lot of fun watching him when he was with Houston (you don't see many, if any, Detroit games televised like you did with Houston back during the day with TMac and Yao), that you'd compare me to an obsessed 12 year old girl? That's rediculous. I'm a Blazers fan and I'll always be a Blazers fan no matter what, but I think I'm entitled to like other players outside of the Blazers and to follow just that player whether he's playing for Houston, Detroit, New York, Miami, or the Lakers. Just because TMac is on Detroit, doesn't mean I'm a fan of Detroit, I'm just a fan of TMac. I never declared being a fan of Detroit or New York (when he played for them). I'm a McGrady fan and will follow him no matter what team he plays for. I will always follow and support the Blazers no matter who is on the team or how good/bad they are. Make an sense at all?

He's really an awesome kid. At the end of the video, when his dad said that you can definitely see he has more confidence in himself and that he walks a little bit taller with so many people behind him on this, that's gotta be a great feeling for him now. That one incident changed his entire life for the better.

Why do you keep deleting your posts Sacha? It's getting kind of annoying. But give me Lowry 10 times out of 10. DJ has proved nothing this year while Lowry actually made the Rockets trade who we thought was their PG of the future was in Brooks. He greatly stepped up his game, took advantage of the time he was given and has been great for the Rockets. I wouldn't even question picking Lowry over Augustine at this point.

Well, I'm a Blazers fan, so I pretty much love anyone who is on the Blazers, though I still check Pistons' boxscores for TMac to see how he did. I'll also check TWolves games not only for KLove but to see if Telfair played at all as I still like him back during his Portland days.
