Trail Blazers Vs Nuggets Game Thread


Who knows if Matthews will be able to play or how mobile Aldridge might be. If either player can't go, that forces someone from the bench to step up into a starting role, causing the second unit to be stretched even thinner. There may not be a deeper team in the NBA than the Denver Nuggets who can go 12-deep with ease and are led by willy vet Andre Miller, shot-blocking machine JaVale McGee, jack-of-all trades Corey Brewer, and Sophomore Jordan Hamilton. It will be important for Portland to not only produce off the bench offensively, but quiet their reserve counterparts. If the Trail Blazers can keep the bench scoring differential below 10, their chances for winning their fourth straight game skyrocket.

So Rip City, what are your keys to victory?Continue>>>
