    I don't think the western conference is nearly as good as it has been the last few years, and that being said, is why I think that the Blazers will make the playoffs. It's not so much what they Blazers will do, which I expect they will go back to beating the bad teams and losing to the good ones. Its the fact that teams like Houston look like shit, and teams like Denver will most likely implode by the trading deadline.

    you guys are just afraid to make a prediction. you can talk trash to me but you have no guts when it comes to making a bold prediction.

    We've won 6 of our last 10, but if you pretend we didn't I guess that would mean we lost 4 of seven.

    The reality is we've lost 4 of 10, are ranked 8th in the west, and would be tied for 3rd in the east.

    We're tied for 10th in a field of 30.

    I'm still really confused about how you get random capital letters showing up in the middle of random words of a sentence. It is extremely strange.

    Like it's that fucking hard to pill a number out of one's ass?

    Ok, we're 6-4, here are the games...
    Sat 13 @ New Orleans LOSS
    Tue 16 @ Memphis WIN (Joel is back for this game, team relaxes a bit with more inside presence)
    Thu 18 vs Denver WIN
    Sat 20 vs Utah LOSS
    Fri 26 vs New Orleans WIN (mark it up)
    Sun 28 @ New Jersey WIN
    Tue 30 @ Philadelphia WIN

    Blazers will be 11-6, and you'll magically forget that you thought the Blazers would be under .500

    Yeah, it's hard to layoff someone with a guaranteed contract, it's true.

    I really don't like making predictions about the Blazers. I enjoy the pick-em league for the NFL because I really don't have anything invested in any of those teams.

    I guarantee you that NBA championships are not handed out in November, nor are they decided by fanboys.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Blazers are 0-1 in their last 1 games. If this continues, Blazers are fucked. Especially since they have teams coming up on their schedule to play.

    sorry but its teh truth

    Regressed from what? We were an injury riddled team last year, and we're an injury riddle team this year. Nothing has changed.

    Blazers are 0-2 against the Thunder yet the Blazers are still a better team imo. Don't feel bad about that at all.

    @ NO - W - Bench makes the difference
    @ Mem - W - Blazers always play well in Memphis + 2 days off before + Joel back
    Den - W - No Kenyon Martin/Anderson and their defense is horrid. If Batum slows Carmelo just a little bit this is over.
    Utah - W - Utah on b2b
    NO - W - Last game on long road trip NO comes out flat
    @ NJ - W - Nets, lol.
    @ Phi - W - Sixers, lol

    Predicted all wins but 5-2 at worst next 7 games.
