Holy shit, if we can't get our first road win against this team, I won't know what to say.

brooklynballer · Nov 10, 2021

What’s the over/under on Christian Wood going for 20+ in this game?

FlashWad · Nov 10, 2021

the battle of the only winless road teams in the nba. We have the 9th highest payroll in the nba and a lot of veterans. They have the 21st and a bunch of youngsters after recently blowing it up trading harden.

One of those is not getting a very good ROI.

Fez Hammersticks · Nov 10, 2021

Another loss, probably

AldoTrapani · Nov 10, 2021

Who the fuck is the Bulls new Gm how did he make that tea so good by building around Lavine so fast? Fuck man

Fairly-Hard · Nov 11, 2021

Question of the day.
Can they win a game on the road?

I believe Portland had the best road record last season, so I don't see any reason why they cant break the ice in Houston, new coach and all.

TBpup · Nov 11, 2021

Schedule win?

The Rockets are going to want to get a win pretty bad

Minstrel · Nov 11, 2021

The Rockets are the worst "bad team" to get right against. They've made games close against some good teams and they play fast and with a lot of energy all game long. I saw them play the Warriors, and while the Warriors eventually established order, for a while the Rockets kept cutting leads down to nothing in constant attack mode. A disciplined defense will eventually cause their undisciplined offense to fall apart, but right now I don't have a ton of faith in the Blazers' defense over four quarters.

I'd obviously still favor the Blazers to get the win, but this isn't a trivial gimme, IMO. If the Blazers aren't playing hard and well, the Rockets could throw a scare into them or even upset them.

LOL

Buffalo Custard · Nov 11, 2021

We should all praise the selfless generosity of the Blazers. Think of how much the Rocket fans will appreciate this win by their struggling team.

At 1-10 I'm not so sure? They might be looking for a draft pick already?

Chris Craig · Nov 12, 2021

Can you get watch Blazers away games on league pass? Or are those blacked out too?

every single blazer game is blacked out on league pass in the local market

Fairly-Hard · Nov 12, 2021

The Blazers ars better than this team they have more talent and experience.
That doesn’t mean they will be better tonight but overall they should be the better team. If this game is close they should be able to take the win!

Fairly-Hard · Nov 12, 2021

Not sure who will step tonight and be the glue guy that holds the team together now that Chris McGowan resigned?

Irish Trader · Nov 12, 2021

Well we are favored from 5 to 6/1/2 points to beat the Rockets. Who thinks we beat the 6 1/2 point spread tonight. Will we get off the offer?

Also Im sure the weight of the gm/president situation is on our players minds.
