    Might is a stretch. Memphis on a second of back to back. I'll take 2-3 at this point.

    Remember, you did say the loss was coming from Memphis when you said 4-1. :)

    They called over and back, and it was not. Two straight cames the refs stole from us.

    I think the Blazers lost because they wanted to get this thread up to 10 pages.

    They're onto us.

    Two games on this road trip thus far with losses due in part to egregious missed calls at the end. I know we played like shit for most of the Wizards game and an atrocious 2nd half tonight, but still that ain't right.

    I was actually not excited about this trip at all. Not because I didn't think the Blazers couldn't pull off a 4-1 or even 5-0 trip.. But because of the teams they were playing, AND the two back to backs. Struggling or not. These 5 teams are good teams. Orlando always plays the Blazers tough.
    Every Blazer fan I brought this up to said they were only worried about the Memphis game.
    They even called me crazy when I said the Blazers would have a successful trip going 2-3... That they'd be lucky to go 3-2.

    Guess I wasn't so wrong.
    And the Blazers have the Warriors off of this trip I believe. Could finish 2-3 and then lose first game back. Wouldn't surprise me in the least.

    In addition to LA, good to see AAA and Batum have decent games again. Blake has been playing well, too.

    Haslem hitting 3's and deep 2's was laughable as well ... still, we make our free throws, we win.

    Ouch! This should put an end to the days debate about this being an elite defensive team.
