Any possibility “your” Portland Trail Blazers lose tonight to the Thunder? The thought of them losing to a team of Oklahoma City’s caliber just doesn’t even seem possible at this point. After romping 3 straight teams by 20 or more points, this game should be a guaranteed win right? Normally I would say yes, but this is the former I-5 rival of Portland and even though Durant may not speak it publicly, you know he has some extra motivation against his “could have been” suitor. Anyone else feeling a track meet in the works?1. Four game road trip record? Toss Up
2. Oh ESPN Accuscore, how we love you so. +1 Blazers
3. I love Kevin too, but no more cheering for ya this season. -1 Durant
4. Blake, you stopped Deron, please stop Russell. Toss Up
5. Batum’s ankle vs. Durant. +1 Thunder
6. Aldrige vs. who? +1 Blazers
7. I hope Durant and Oden each take turns making posters of each other. Toss Up
8. Again, Russell Westbrook is the “x-factor” in this game. Toss Up
9. Is there really any question about the importance of this game? Toss Up
10. Portland has come to far to let games like this get away from them. +1 Playoffs
Totals: Blazers 2 Thunder 1 Durant -1 Playoffs 1
Predicted Winner: Blazers
