The cool thing about statistics is they can change. Not saying they will but just because you lost 9 times out of 10 doesn't mean you will lose that amount the next 10. Remember that statistic has a couple buffers that don't apply now. We don't have Roy or Nate coaching the team.
That's correct--historical statistics can be predictive, but are by no means definitive or even normative. I'm certainly not saying that the Blazers can't win, or that there's a 90% chance of losing; my main point was that the post expressing an expectation of victory in both road games was basically asking for a letdown.
Haha that's why I love this forum. If I want a semantics argument, I'll get one. You already looked up the "meaningless" statistics, so that time is already wasted if we're going there. And, yes, telling you not to tell me what to do, is telling you what to do, bravo! Round 1 to the guy who calls himself Platypus!
