    Unbelievable--the "Zombies" with a better record than the Blazers? How does this guy have any credibility?

    Oh, and then there's this:

    Weren't the Nuggs in the WCF?

    I didn't think he was capable of surprising me with his bullshit anymore. I was wrong.

    Wow.

    It really is strange how butt-hurt he is towards Portland.

    His reasoning is that Portland's players are going to tune out Nate as well as the addition of Miller ruining Portland's chemistry.

    Pretty much a worst case scenario. Not totally impossible but not very likely.

    Update: His prediction for the Thunder is beyond retarded. They still don't have a front line to speak of and are paper thin. Unless Durant morphs into LeBron that team isn't going to get over 35 wins next season.

    I don't ever see Nate being tuned out UNLESS Brandon Roy tunes him out. If he does, then yes its all down hill. I just don't see that happening because Nate gives Roy everything he wants on a golden platter.

    Now if he removes Blake out of the starting lineup....

    He thinks Durant might put up a Jordan-level season. He loves Durant as much as he hates Portland.

    Don't click on the link it just encourages him. If there is any justice in the world (no, I know there isn't any) then Simmons will have his neck broken by a high velocity block of Durant by Oden.

    Neck broken might be overkill--nose flattened would be sufficient.

    November 19th.

    Circle that date on your calender. Simmons will be at the Beaverton Borders flogging his new book.
