    APRIL

    @Denver
    @SAC
    @Clips
    Dallas
    @Lakers
    OKC
    GS

    Thats not easy at all... esp April. We need 9-10 for playoffs 9maybe 8 if the rockets, hornets, grizz all play terrible. and 10-12 to move up meaning we have to go 11-5 or 12-4 to have a CHANCE at moving up. Also to move up MUST WINS are OKC x2 and Suns. Losses to Sac, GS, Knicks, Wiz, or Raptors make ot almost impossible unless lakers or mavs start resting players.

    I think we definitely win 7 of those games at a minimum. At 7-9 over the last 16, I still don't think any team will catch the Blazers. For example, we are 4 games ahead of Memphis. I don't see Memphis winning 12 of their next 18 games.

    Sounds like another bet mixum. The bet being that the Blazers make the playoffs. According to you the odds are in your favor that the Blazers don't, so you would be a fool not to bet.

    So are you all talk or shall we bet . . . I liked the stakes you did last year. Time to put up mixum

    OK deal. And you better not win this bet because I post here all off season.

    Good thing there are a lot of Blazer fans here or some might be pulling for you to win the bet. :D

    So we are on . . . one of us will stop posting after the end of the Blazer season, until players report for training camp.


    Got to say this about you mixum, you talk a lot of shit, but you do back it up.

    :cheers:

    That doesn't seem fair. If the Blazers make the playoffs, you shouldn't be around to post because they exceeded your expectations and proved we realists correct. You should be allowed to post until the end of the 82nd game. At the buzzer, you're back to making other people's lives miserable in Bristol, CT. Fair enough, Rudy? Or should I call you Mr. Colella?

    The way he promised not to post until next year if the Blazers made the playoffs last year - and then started to post in August because it was "next year"?

    No way the Blazers don't make the playoffs. Been saying this for a while now, and it's looking truer every single day.
