I think we'll get a split. I've just gotta assume that this Portland team is better than this, and will manage to win one game on their home court.
Split, win in 5 games

I am hoping they split![]()
Spurs take both. I don't see the Blazers being able to keep the Spurs as ty as they were in the 3rd, and even then the Blazers couldn't capitalize. Caveat is if Spurs get injured. I think a fast paced shoot out favors the Spurs, but right now the Blazers haven't found an answer for Tony or Splitter's defense. It could change, but I don't feel like it will.
I'm with DMC - Spurs blow out Blazers!!! Tbh.......Spurs are lookin damn good.

Hope to sweep of course while the Clips and Thunder beat the out of each other for 7 games with Game 7 ending in quadruple overtime.
Would love to see a sweep, but realistically, I say a split and close at home. Don't really think we can beat them twice in their house.
I hadn't seen this one before. Manu looks more like an agent from The Matrix than a MIB.
I think Portland just plays much better at home and our bench has proven already in the playoffs it can shrink. I'll admit there's a little bit of the 2012 Thunder factor playing into my hesitation though.
We win a heartbreaker game 3 and add insult to injury by blowing them out in game 4.
Obviously we take both. I knew we would sweep this team. They play NO DEFENSE. If you let the Spurs have room to operate their offense, they are going to SMASH you.
Only teams left in the playoffs who can beat Spurs are the Thunder and Heat because their length and athleticism on the DEFENSIVE side of the ball bothers us.
Would be nice to take at least one...
Lose game three (close one), win game four by 8+.
I'll be at game four for sure and quite possibly game three given that prices are dropping faster than Tony Parker's pants in a room full of married women!![]()
i am predicting a sweep unless the refs go 02 Lakers/Kings. They have not shown any indication that they can defend us.
I expect a split. I'm going to be furious if they lose both. I really don't think they'll sweep, and I'm not sure I'd want them too - too much time off is likelier to lead to rust. I can't decide which of game 3 or 4 they are most likely to drop, because it depends so much on how game 3 goes. That is traditionally the one they'd drop I think, but I feel pretty confident they'll drop 4 if they win 3 between easing up, lackadaisical play and desperation from Portland (especially since I expect game 3 to be a lot closer than the last 2).
We've completed 8 series in the last three seasons and swept 4 of them. This is the sixth time we've gone up 2-0 in those years and we've only failed to sweep once in those situations. What does often mean to you?
I'm not predicting a sweep, but if we do it will hardly be shocking.
Split. The sweep is going to be difficult. Portland is bound to nut up for game 3, but if the Spurs take it, it's over.
I like the letters M I B for some reason![]()
Game three should be a monster to be sure.
I am expecting a split too just because Portland is too good of a team to get swept. Although losing both would surprise me more than a sweep would. I can't see Spurs letting up for 2 straight games, hope they don't.
they are due a good shooting night. some home cooking and you have a blazers blowout of the spurs
the other game will be close and go down to the wire. I say Spurs have a 50% chance of winning that other one. So all in all a 50% chance to split imo
Both if we keep foot down. Depends on our focus.
Def see spurs in 5 now but the spurs are rolling a sweep isn't impossible
