The Portland Trail Blazers have drawn an extra-early game versus the Charlotte Hornets today. Portland has been up and down lately, beating teams that are starting the NBA’s annual tanking process, tending to fall to better opponents. The Hornets are one of the tweener franchises on the schedule. They’re definitely trying to win, with success depending on the time and angle through which you view them. That should make for an interesting matchup.

Here’s what we ask in our discussion threads:
- Stay on the topic of the game during official Game Day threads. We ask that the focus be a little tighter because everyone is gathering for the same reason, the game that unites us all.
- Don’t troll. Talk about basketball, not other commenters. Be smart and charitable—or at least honest and relatable—in the discussion. Friction happens, but treat this like your living room, not an anonymous message board. (Also avoid the classic internet trolling techniques: overt snark, comment repetition, etc.)
- Obviously no language that diminishes people based on race, gender, orientation, and the like is allowed. If you’re going to insult the L*kers, at least be creative.
- Blazer’s Edge is a non-profanity site. Yes, even though referees exist.
Thanks for being a part of the discussion. Enjoy the game and join us after for analysis and more!
