Wrong choir. Here's the one I sing in:

If I recall correctly that was from our Cathedral of the Madeleine concert last year.
 
Plus the Blazers are down Ezeli. Is he a starter or back up?

He's a backup and doesn't poae much of a threat vs Gobert when healthy, thing is there isn't some drop-off without him, Portland has great frontcourt depth and is a great team on the boards.

They're gonna throw the kitchen sink at Rudy.
 
The blazers always seem to have a couple big scoring bursts against us every game where everything seems to be falling. If we can stay with them somehow during those, we will beat them (captain obvious). Hopefully Quin has been practicing his timeouts over the summer.
 
Like others have said my fear this game is the quick runs that Portland can create. They have the shooters to do it and they feed off their crowd. A quick 9-0 run with back to back to back 3's always seems possible against these guys. If we let maybe even one of those happen on the road it could be game over.

Yea, those are the times where we will have to be able to fight offense with offense.

Limiting TO, controlling the boards, and dominating the FT line will be the 3 biggest keys. I think we do 2 of those things and the game is our.

Hood really has to show up too. At very least we need a 20 piece, but probably more like 25.

I feel the same way about Lyles, I think he could dominate against these guys.
 
No such thing as a poor defensive lineup with Gobert out there.

baloney ...you put two sieves on defense next to him and maybe Plumlee gets 20 rebounds with Gobert trying to guard 3 Portland guys on the front line ... definitely don't want Gobert getting hurt again
