    You are right. 1-1 vs Cleve and 1-1 vs Phoenix, I was doing it off the top of my head.

    Patience involves me telling you you have to wait for something. Enjoy the now. 5th best record in NBA.

    A good season is fun. But there is only one goal and we are no where close to that goal because of a mix of things (coaching, bench is improved but still sucks, only have 4 good starters now,etc). The other goal is to keep Aldridge happy and Im not so sure going one and done in the playoffs does that which is what we look like.

    Alright. You obviously are failing at comprehending these things, and grabbing at miniscule details to try to prove points.

    Here's the rub: We suck. Right now. Last year means nothing. We suck. Right now. We need the damn all star rest, and HOPE, HOPE, they rememeber how to play this game. But as of 2/7/2015, we suck. End of story.

    That IS waiting. We're living in TODAY, which sucks, you're telling us to enjoy the season (Which goes until april). That would mean a length of time.

    If you want to think the team sucks and you want to be devastated, then go ahead. I obviously can't change your mind and you'd rather be angry so do it. Riverman and I will be happy. Go Blazers!! Can't wait for tomorrow's game!

    Yep. Team constructed as-is is probably getting past the first round, but beyond that....

    If we're nowhere close, what teams ARE close? I see a bunch of teams at the top of the standings with not much winning experience and I see the teams with real championship-level experience below us in the standings and struggling. there is no runaway clear favorite right now. We have as good a chance as anyone.

    Look it is nice you try to have a positive attitude, but with the last month in a half do you call that good ball? Because your idea of good ball is not the same as most of our views. Losing like the last 12 out of 17 or whatever it is, it pretty much terrible.
