    Dunno. Seems like a Portland type of thing to happen.

    I've posted a couple times it wouldn't surprise me to see them beat the Spurs and lose to the Cavs.

    I wouldn't be surprised. We're horrible on the road.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    What would be the history, out of curiosity? I know the Cavaliers are one of the longest losing streaks ever, so it would be a pretty bad loss, but what record would Portland be setting?

    Well, this forum can't be content with the past...it should always be looking to break its own record.

    It wouldn't take a loss to the Cavs to set that record.

    Powe, Verajao and Mo Williams are all inactive. It would be a challenge for us to lose to them.

    Actually, history is made if we win. If we win, the Cavs will set a new record for most consecutive losses in a single season.

    expecting? no, but am I worried we could easily lose this one - yes. This team is hurting, Wes in banged up, Nic still looks hesitant with the knee, Camby still out and Joel a shadow of his former self. Rudy shooting 36% for the year but looking better lately, Patty really not doing much. Overall our bench is very weak. When I write all this down I am amazed our record is as good as it is. I no longer think we will make the playoffs.

    When half of your team can go 1 for 9 or worse on any given night, it is definitely possible for the Cavs to win. On any given season you are going to win games you shouldn't win, and lose games you shouldn't lose. If they didn't, we wouldn't bother playing the games because we could figure it all out on paper.

    That'd make you happy wouldn't it? You'd think as a die-hard lifelong Blazer fan that would upset you.
