    Chron.com has him as questionable. Probably a game time decision.

    I hope Battier brings his A game otherwise it's going to be a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG night. B. Roy made Artest look like he was out there on roller skates the last go around.

    Man, it's gone from oh he'll be fine for the next game to oh he'll miss a couple of games to well he's questionable still and a game time decision and before you know it he'll be out for the year with a broken leg the way our injuries have been going. Thanks a lot Rox dox

    no kidding. I thought his injury wasn't serious in the least bit? What is the deal with players constantly getting hurt no matter how minor it is. Geez..

    This is ridiculous. Is this just precautionary? Him being out this long is a concern.

    Kyle Lowry will go off this game. Count it.

    i know for a fact that aldridges gonna kill us. hes gonna abuse scola, and when/if he plays center against yao, hes gonna get open shots after open shots thru the pick and pop. if we can somewhat contain him (and roy to a certain extent), we'll win.

    I think so too, I just have a feeling that the PGs for Portland don't like the guard guys who try to drive too much...I got this feeling from the Boston game...where Rondo had a field day against them when it came to penetration.

    We still haven't seen a full rotation with Lowry on board. We've been missing a big contributor in Landry the whole time. I dunno which is unlikelier, winning the championship or seeing everyone playing at full strength in the same game.

    I agree, it's easy to get a W over Kings or Cats but let's see if we can handle two playoff teams.

    Dallas wasn't a walkover, especially considering how they've owned us in our own building recently.

    But I agree, these next two games will tell us a lot.

    Artest - 17pts
    Scola - 15pts

    This game goes to hell when some unlucky fan tries to throw a beer at an on fire Aldridge and accidently hits Ron Ron.
