Injury update for tonight:
The Portland Trail Blazers will conclude an extended homestand before the NBA All-Star Break, facing off against the Philadelphia 76ers tonight. Joel Embiid may be a game-time decision, but Tyrese Maxey is a terror and the Sixers bring enough to shut Portland’s lights off. Can the Blazers extend their current winning
streak to three games against their Eastern Conference opponents? Talk about all the action here!

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!
