Looks like that bicep tendinitis was slowing down Deng in these last few games, which is why he hasn't been producing. |

Sorry, was on a call. It would be nice to see Ingram start with the first unit if Deng can't go. |

Lillard may return when Trail Blazers host Lakers
Quote: | Lillard may be able to play Thursday against the Lakers. He was able to go through parts of Portland's Tuesday practice, and also went through a workout prior to Wednesday's game at Oracle Arena. The Blazers' All-Star point guard said he doesn't want to return until he's at least close to 100 percent. |

Just says he's questionable. He said today he felt a lot better. |

There is actually a better chance we win with Lillard then without him cause he's gonna be messing up the flow especially if he can't be effective. |

I really hope Randle is on his game tonight. Portland's interior is suspect this season. They're missing some rim protection. A Juggernaut-With-Handle Randle alongside DLO and Nick could make life miserable for the Blazers, particularly if DLO and Nick are getting the same catch and shoot opportunities they had against Memphis. Lillard/McCollum are dangerous but they're not defensive closers. Can't leave DLO, Young, Lou or Clarkson open. Moz and Black could get opportunities inside, and I'm sure TRob would love a chance to play against his old team too.
This could get high scoring, could be entertaining if the Lakers can keep their offense organized. Again, the Lakers are capable of exploiting the Blazers tonight if they do stay organized.
Very few Blazer fans expect the Lakers to compete, they've had this marked as an easy win since last summer. Last time they saw Randle was preseason when he looked like crap. Time to open a few eyes and drop a few jaws. I hope the Lakers come ready to fight for this one. |

Moz needs to stay out of foul trouble which is also another key, we need him to be physical against Plumlee. |

They put up a great fight last night, so I'd expect them to have a nice letdown in this game. But that might not be enough given how the Lakers play on the road. |
