Toronto is still a team? Who plays there? and why? Gross. Bargnani is like Bosh without Bosh's defense or post moves. Calderon is good. DeRozan hit his peak and is average, asked to do too much. What a trash roster.

I may not watch this game. What I need is for you all to watch Mr. Matthews. I'll need a breakdown of his game for verification. Nothing like a 1 game sample during a team's slide to make sweeping generalizations.

We are 1 point favorites.

Wolves 88
Blazers 89

#1: 23, 16, 1. 42.

#2: 16 points.

Bonus: Felton more fouls than points.

Wolves: 95
Blazers: 90

1.) 3-3 pointers made. 14 - rebounds. 24 points. Total = 47

2.) 20 points by J-Craw

Bonus: Martell Explodes into a million pieces!

We got this...

Huge game though..I think we really announce that we are for real when it comes to playoff talk if we can FINALLY get 2 over .500...a Loss just puts us back to where we've been the whole season

Derozan is playing well over the past month or so. And I think he has moved to SF now and his ppg have exploded.

roundhouse wrote: Yeah. Bargnani has actually been awesome this year. But he's been out for like 2 months now with an injury, so you can't blame him.

Derozan and Calderon are playing awesome as well.

And the Raptors defense is waaaaaaay better than it was the past few seasons, amazingly probably (mostly) due to Coach Casey (does a double take.)

Here's the TWB front page Live Chat game thread for the game tonight vs the Blazers:

A Must-Win Game: Blazers @ Wolves 3/7/12

And here's the online game feed for anyone that can't watch on TV: www.firstrowsports.eu/watch/111849/1/wat...nd-trailblazers.html

Echoing the sentiments amongst everyone here, we have to win this game. Can't afford to hover around .500 and expect to make the playoffs. I really like the way our crowd rallied with us at the end of the clippers game by booing the crap out of Griffin. That's the kind of home court advantage we need.

Wolves- 97
Blazers- 94

1. 57
2. 10 points

Bonus: Wes Matthews and Lamarcus Aldridge combine for 50+ points

Pek is out...damn

Wow, looks like it was a sweet win. Good job, we definitely needed to win this! And we beat Portland twice in a row after losing like 16 in a row to them or whatever it was.

Better get you all some Puke Ridnour !!

Wow...can't trade Luke now. Luke is solid.

Jamal takes Beasley type shots. Horrible shot selection.

Bummer to see JJ hurt again. It is nice having that pile of guys to go to.
