Regardless of home court advantages. A) Los Angles B) San Antonio C) Houston D) New Orleans E) Utah F) Denver G) Dallas I think Houston would be matchup that Favors Blazers.

The Suns play a lot of zone so Portland will have a chance to get a lot of second chance points. Oden, Joel and Lamarcus could all be huge factors on the offensive glass. I think Portland needs this one. Every game from here on out is a playoff game and they have a chance to improve their position so there's pressure to win. They've had trouble with PHX in recent years and I think it's important that they prove to themselves that they are better than them. The Blazers beat them at home earlier in the year but it was a hard fought victory and B. Roy exploded for 52 pts.. I'm expecting the blazers to show some fire and win by double digits. I am a little nervous about this one though. Definitely a big game for both teams. The Suns play a lot of zone so Portland will have a chance to get a lot of second chance points.

I have a bad feeling about it. Plus, its on TNT, which never helps. Although it will be cool to see Shaq and Oden playing against each other. Hope the "Red Out" goes well. On another subject - Why does the "5 Man Race" for MVP include Chris Paul? I can think of a half a dozen impact players (Including B-Roy, who is averaging more points) who deserve it more than Chris Paul. This game makes me nervous. I have a bad feeling about it.
