The article says nothing that we Blazer fans don't know, but it's useful to increase respect around the league, to say that we're really better than we show in the standings. It's an ego article.
I don't think we ARE better than we show in the standings. But it's still an impressive accomplishment to be 25-20 with all the injuries we've suffered.
Aldridge this past week through 4 games: 28.3pts, 52% FG, 10.3rebs, 2.3asts 1stl, 1blk, in about 43 mpg. Oh, and he led the team to a 4-0 record. He better get POW.
