    We'll win tomorrow so that's 4 and we'll win the first 2 in Oakland if Curry doesn't play. We won't lose at home so that's 8. We could lose Game 1 in SA so that's my guess. 8 game win streak. Thoughts?

    Are you going to the Warriors games with that attitude? I hope not, not sure it will be as easy to recover from 0-2 against the Warriors.

    HE can go with that attitude all he wants. The players, however, might want to focus on each game as it comes.

    Would a better fan say 10 game win streak?

    I'll say it again. GS can't guard us. Now that they are playing without Curry, we can guard them. Pay no attention to how they played the Rockets. The Grizzlies would've beat the Rockets too.

    So are you saying that if the Blazers beat GS in the first 2 games it's a fluke because Curry didn't play?

    I'm imagining a scenario where the blazers go up 3-1 and then have to try and win 1 of the last three games after Curry comes back. That'd be interesting.

    That's not what fluke means.

    Right? Out of everyone you'd expect BGD to know that a fluke is a type of fish.

    I have no idea how long this win streak will last.

    I will go with whatever KingAlbertoJrSpeed says. He has proven to be the very best at rating player’s talents. Not sure what stats he uses? Or, what his secret is? But, I would never bet against his prediction.

    I'll offer up the same $100 bet as last time and happily pay if we win 8 in a row.

    Kingspeed does seem to be clairvoyant, but he is actually just employing a complex algorithm that has correlated clutch shooting percentages and penis size.
