The Pre-Funk: Blazers at Jazz 10/15

The all day coverage you need to go into tonight's contest. We're just making sure you're prepared to drop that extra knowledge on the brosephs to get you another smidgen of respect.

Party Attendees...

Winning in Utah seems to be a daunting task for any team and with the Blazers struggling in just about every aspect of the game, don't expect a ton tonight. Roy and Aldridge will likely be short-stacked on minutes after playing 30+ last night and Rudy Fernandez might not even make the trip with back spasms. The Jazz have played just two preseason games thus far and should be overly rested after a trip to London and back. By the way, Milsap killed it in both contests. Over the next 12 days, figure to see the Blazers working out bugs, kinks, and oh yeah, pick-and-roll defense.
