Re: Schedule Schedule coming soon Actually, last year it was released around the first week of August
Re: Schedule Word from a friend at The Game is that the pre-season schedule may be released today or tomorrow.

Re: Schedule Looks like we are playing PHX in Steve Nash's hometown on Oct. 22nd. http://ktar.com/?sid=1194141&nid=112
Re: Schedule Well thanks to thevolv on OLive, it appears Clutchfans got a leak of the Houston schedule here: http://www.clutchfans.net/news/1541/full_2009-10_rockets_schedule_leaked/ Looks like our home opener is going to be 10/27 against Houston. And we'll be Houston's home opener on Halloween. I find this odd though because 10/27 is the big opening night as it is Tuesday and the Lakers will most definitely be opening that night as well. They usually go an east game and a west game with some random third game in the middle. So perhaps they're either going to move our game to start early, if this schedule leak is true, or we're going to be on NBA Tv or something.
Re: Schedule There's always one or two teams that get leaked a few days before the release, but I agree that the NBA can't be happy that this appears to have leaked a little over a week before it would appear to get released. I wonder if this will move up their date for a full release. I sure hope so.
Blazers to open season against Rockets (likely) http://www.clutchfans.net/news/1541/full_2009-10_rockets_schedule_leaked/ 10/27, that's as early as it gets, plus last years playoffs, so I think it's pretty much assured, the ROCKETS will be our opening match-up. And looks like we get the home-opener finallly..
Re: Schedule Oh oops, didn't notice this thread, good thing it got merged. Also yea, that's weird, Oct. 27th is opening night too. Didn't think we'd get chosen for that 3 years in a row!
Re: Schedule It seems like that this is almost the perfect game to get Oden off to a good start. Without Yao I dont think the Rockets have another player taller than 6'9". Im not saying that Oden will dominate but he should be able to be a factor especially if the Rockets have to double down on him and Oden should rebound well against that line-up. When you combine this with the first game being a home opener and the revenge factor this a great first game for us.

Re: Schedule They're going to use the shit hole that is the memorial coliseum for an exhibition game?
Re: Blazers to Open vs. Rockets..Eww Why eww? No Yao, probably no McGrady. Ariza instead of RonRon. Seems like a victory for the Blazers. 1-0 baby!
Re: Blazers to Open vs. Rockets..Eww No Artest, No Yao, who knows about T-Mac. Add in the bitterness of losing to them in the 1st round. 10+ point victory.
