    Competition hasn't been great, but winning five straight on the road in the NBA ain't easy. Blazers are tough, playing gorgeous ball.

    Blazers formula for playoffs was always going to be top-five offense, average D. They are right on point so far. If D gets better, look out.

    We're beating NBA teams, so that's all that matters. Though we do seem to have a knack for catching teams with injury problems. Last year, we seemed to hit many teams on our eastern road trips that were missing their key players (and we usually lost those games). On this trip we missed Rondo, Williams, Lopez...

    Love! Maybe a memo can be given to the NBA front office to call some fucking fouls!

    That's what this league is all about is finding a bit of luck. Beating the teams missing guys is important, and playing good, winning basketball will do nothing but build confidence in our guys.

    We were supposed to face a depleted Spurs team. We did not. We beat them. They've lost once all year.

    That is all.

    Not our fault they got injured. What are we supposed to do? Not play?

    "Hey guys. Sorry your guy is injured. Wanna reschedule? Saturady at 2. Cool man. Yeah, your twitter is awesome. Tweet me!"

    Shit happens. Not our fault.

    LaMarcus will be on Sportscenter momentarily and Damian will be on NBA Coast to Coast as well. They are taking notice to this run.

    They'll probably show all Nets highlights like a few days ago with Boston. National media is fucking stupid.

    I hope it's better than last Friday, when it was all Boston highlights while LMA was talking on the phone.

    thanks spammy

    Portland (9-2) is just a half-game behind San Antonio and Indiana for the NBA's best record. The Blazers will try to complete a perfect 4-0 road trip Wednesday at Milwaukee.

    half game away from the best record..wow

    Could you imagine if we actually finished with the best record in the league before the all star break?
