    We will both games of our early double header with GS with Jones guarding Curry while getting 12 ppg.
    This will turn around @BonesJones opinion of him.

    I'll do you one better. The Blazers will win both games in LA on their first road trip (against the Lakers and Clippers)

    Number 3 seed and winning at least a game in WCF.

    I think we might be the deepest team in the league and with the virus and shortened season I think that is going to be a very big deal. Then it will be a big deal in the playoffs because we won't have droughts on offense or get tired and lose intensity on defense. I'm excited about this team.

    The other thing I'm excited about is if more than ten guys show up and show out, we can look forward to a consolidation trade that doesn't cost us depth but does improve a spot in our rotation. I think that can happen if we blow a lot of teams out and that gets Ant, Nas and Giles time to prove that they have made big leaps forward in their game. Then if Hoodie is looking great, Kanter looks like he did in the 2019 playoffs, Zach is healthy and improved and DJJ makes a huge leap forward we would have some serious value to upgrade... or maybe everyone is playing so well that we just roll with what we have and make it a long way.

    For some teams yes.

    All-Defensive team type of year for RoCo.

    GTJ plays himself into a HUGE extension.

    I can't tell if it's a fearless prediction or a faint hope, but I'd really like to see Portland make it thru the season with no serious injury

    Damn, that’s fearless, but not for the prediction. It’s fearless because you’re tempting an angry, jealous, vengeful injury god that I am sure will take notice of this.

    My bold prediction is the Blazers will end up with the #2 spot.

    Little will be less productive than Gabriel would have been.
    Giles will be 12th or lower in minutes played.
    By the end of the season Collins will have fallen out of the rotation.

    CJ will shine right from the start and become an all star.

    Dame goes undefeated in the twitter wars.

    Blazer's roster is set, no mid-season moves.

    Dame wins the first annual season long logo shooting contest.

    Blazer players have tons of fun this season, both on and off the floor.

    Harden does not get traded. And, misses most of the season do to a mystery injury.
