    But we are the better team because we are ahead in the standings, right?

    TBF. Dude might as well be a troll. Super unrealistic, lost in space fans are almost worse than doomsday fans. At least doomsday fans are based in reality...

    Of all the teams to be owned by a in a 5-day span, Utah is about the worst one that I can think of. Sit next to a guy from Salt Lake, who won't go out of his way to talk shit, it'll just be subtle, and it's going to be so god damn annoying - especially since his team has looked like trash against the rest of the league.

    Bigger picture: we have a real title against a healthy Sixers team. Warriors have fake titles and Toronto has none.

    Oh, but he is. It's alright to be a homer if you're REASONABLE and RATIONAL about it.

    But making poetic stats and outlandish arguments without substance to justify that we're somehow the best team in the league.....sorry, it's embarrassing. Enormously so.

    I wish the Blazers would at least TRY something new... Like Baldwin and Layman instead of ET and Stauskus or Curry. Or Play through Zach more. Or stop platooning in your bench like its a HS JV game.

    They go sweep the home/away 2 game series against weak Warriors. We can pull within one loss of them!

    They’ve played 21 road games and only 14 home games. They will climb standings.

    I get it, but considering some of the crap that gets posted here at times I think its a stretch to call him worse than a lot of it. Also the doomsday crowd isnt any more realistic than the always happy homers.

    Well, back to watching the cricket. India are on top, but it’s still close, and only the first day of a five day match.

    If the doomsday crowd is one that says "we need a new coach and GM or we are never going to make it past the 1st round", verses someone who tries to make up some rational that we're better than Golden State........I'll take the Doomsday Crowd every time.
