    We still are 4th in one of the toughest years of this conference.

    This LA guy is kind of good.

    We're 44-22. That's kinda pretty.

    LA is a freaking monster. I remember years back when he was giving us 18/8 saying, "If he can give us 20 and 10, he'd be one of the best Blazers of all time."

    Well, 23.3 and 10.5 is fucking amazing. What a growth from a young kid to a Solid #1 Option.

    We're something like 8-2 since Wes went down. Afflalo is filling in well. The bench is scoring better.All our bigs are back before the playoffs. Meyers is making huge strides as a player.

    Aldridge is continuing to silence the haters.
    Kaman is playing well off the bench again.
    Batum is playing much better.
    Paul Allen is rich af, so he can pay the refs to be consistent throughout the game..
    Not just the first 44minutes of it.

    Batum definitely has been. Tonight is the only game where I kinda saw him regress, but he's been consistent, so I can't complain.

    Oh I forgot one thing.
    Blazers are still going to make the playoffs and have a good chance at HCA in the first round.

    Meyers Leonard is finally looking like a decent pick?

    Definitely. His growth has been exceptional since we got Kaman. And if Kaman did nothing else, he's worth the money. But he's been decent for us too.

    Even though their fan base is dysfunctional, they love the team

    LaMarcus Aldridge.

    I hope when it comes to resign him that he feels his supporting cast wants it as bad as he wants it. He's been very consistent all year.

    12-3 against OKC/Dallas/NO/Houston/SA

    We are on a 5 game winning streak against West Playoff Teams

    Tied with Houston in loss column and we have the tiebreaker so we're still basically 3rd

    Opportunity coming up to gain a game on Memphis in their house on Saturday

    Afflalo has been a Wes Matthews clone

    There are still 16 games left. There are A LOT of things that can change between now and then and even if they dont ANYTHING can happen in the playoffs. Its a new season. We just need to be playing well at the right time. I would rather struggle a little now and be clicking at playoff time then be streaking now and fizzle out right before the playoffs.
