    You sound like Clips guys who said there was no chance we'd make the playoffs.

    Umm... this is talking about the Blazers sweeping the Clippers. There's hope, then there's delusion.

    Speaking of which, why have you never taken any of the bets that the Blazers are going to sweep the Clippers? You're a betting man, after all.

    Absolutely never ever said that. In no dimension that you can contrive in any way what so ever did i ever say such a thing. You simply don't like the fact that i disagree with your absolutely ridiculous predictions so you like to pout and sulk about it until you come up with some other kind of Broad stroke statement that insults everyone on here that has an opinion. Like i said Kingspeed. If the Clippers lose tomorrow by 20 i will come on here and bow to your greatness and admit i was wrong. If the Clippers get swept in this series i will buy you a ticket to the first home game they play against whomever they play in the 122 section right behind the Blazer bench. I would even be willing to sit right next to you and listen to you tell me how right you were the whole game.
    This i offer because if you are right i will be so fucking happy they won that i would love to do it. All i ask in return is you willingness to admit that others on here might have a clue also just once.

    Did not watch the Dallas game, so I looked at the box score. Wes had a -40 (+/-) in just 29 minutes. Not sure I have every seen that before.
    Not blaming the loss on him by any stretch. Just thought it was note worthy.

    Really that is my whole point. Absolutely unwilling to step up. It all started with the whole "The Blazers Roster is better from top to bottom" Statement followed by this is "Basic Basketball Knowledge" like everyone on this entire board that knows the Blazers are a long shot and have a talent deficit have absolutely no idea what they are talking about.
    Sure i think the Blazers have a shooters chance. There is always a chance. Heck Curry went down tonight. If that is a bad sprain that could very well impact the entire conference. The Thunder look very dominant. The Blazers might steal a game in LA. We all know they play well in the Rose Garden. Anything can happen but usually the best team wins. It's that simple.

    The entire Mavs team was shut down. Only reason Wes has such a bad +- is because he played more than most.

    I realize the stat means nothing. But still it had to be a miserable experience.

    Felton played more minutes and only had a - 16.

    I bet this is is the only time Wes has ever had a -40, and it will probably never happen again.
    -40 in only 29 minutes. That is a crazy number

    It was a miserable game. You hit the nail on the head. Not sure how Felton had much better. He stunk up the place also. Classic passes striaght into defenders and dribbling of his foot/knee numerous times.

    Paypal? Or we will just have to donate $20 dollars towards the purchase of some Blazers sag online? Maybe the loser buys a hat or something for the winner? Ill let you know what Style I want tonight after we win. :)

    I offered the same bet back on Page 1 and it's been 'Crickets' ever since.

    My dad's a disabled vet so I get a grand a month just to go to school. Add in scholarship money, and ya end up with a decent amount of dough

    I was hoping CAPS would get his attention

    Whelp, there went the sweep.

    No wonder he didn't take the bet. Does this mean we may know about basketball?
