    Going to change my prediction. Hope that is okay @Orion Bailey

    Some on here are predicting 52-53 wins???? How could they even think that after what we have just witnessed?

    Revised prediction.
    41-41 a .500 team at best.

    They might stumble into the playin and with some Lillard luck get into the first round.
    9th seed

    Lillard will have to get 28 a game.
    If he doesn't they are a Lotto team.

    Nance obviously will not play more than 50 games at this rate. So lets go with 50.

    Here is my additional prediction. Lillard will be traded next Summer (If not by the trade deadline). It's a very bad time to be a Blazer fan.
    Doom and Gloom I know. Lets hope I'm wrong but you all know I'm most likely right.

    you can change right up until tip off of game one on Wednesday.
    Predictions will range as past years have shown.
    we are all fans. Some glass half empty, some glass half full.
    But we can all be rest assured that all of us here want to see the Blazers succeed.
    How to succeed is often the point of conflict on this board and nba history has proven both to be right and wrong.

    We can blow it up and nail the draft and be Contenders in five years.
    Or we can blow it up and not sniff the playoffs for a decade.

    sooo many variables.
    Health.
    Draft class quality of the next five years. coaching style vs player skill sets.

    No way to predict which is right or wrong. And the success stories often have asterisk with them one way or another.

    I will humbly stand in your shadow. If we are both right i will give you the tie breaker.

    Fact remains- I now feel this team is a .500 team instead of getting 45 wins.

    I’m joking. Was 45 wins your original prediction? I still can’t believe my man picked 54 wins and 2nd place.

    Predict the season record.
    44 - 38

    Predict what spot they land in
    (3rd seed, 6th seed, 12th seed, etc)

    9th seed / play-in team

    For the two tiebreakers...

    Predict Dames PPG for the season.
    30.6 ppg

    Predict how many games Nance plays in
    61



    Good luck everyone!

    and GO BLAZERS!!!!!!!!!![/QUOTE]

    Yeah I was thinking 45 but then the injury reality kind of set in. I still could see 41-45 because the Blazers do have a bad bad man by the name of Damian Lillard. That dude wills the team to wins.

    So all your numbers are in "Green" font. Does that mean they are all sarcastic?
