    Denver lost to Phoenix tonight and Utah lost to the Bulls!

    That puts us in a tie with Denver atop the NW Division at 17 - 10 and a game ahead of Utah (two games ahead in the loss column) at 17 - 12.

    The Nuggets have now lost three straight.

    It would be great to beat them twice next week and put them in our rear view mirror. They've had a much easier schedule than the Blazers. That's about to catch up with them.

    It's nice the Blazers are coming off three days rest and Denver is tired and on a losing streak. Let's hope the Blazers can help them keep that losing streak up.

    Nice results for Blazer Fans. LA proving that their record may have to do with their very soft schedule to start the year vs being that dominating of a team. I still think they are the team to beat in the West, but they are not going to run away with it unless they can start playing better on the road.

    Yes they are. You'll see. We've have confidence and we've had three full days off so we will be rested and ready.

    I agree. They aren't losing four in a row. They're losing five in a row.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    They've already lost three. Being in the past, it doesn't affect their odds of losing the next one or two (if the odds of streaks are what concern you).
