    I had no idea Omar Cook was in the league. He’s 40.

    Must win game

    Can’t start the season off cold. Need to be on it out of the gate. Hopefully they didn’t take preseason seriously and we see a different team. Otherwise we may be in for a long season.

    @SAC
    PHX
    @LAL
    DEN
    MIA
    HOU
    MEM
    @PHX
    @PHX
    @MIA

    Need to be 6-4 in our first 10, worst case scenario. 3/4 against PHX in the first 10 games.

    Big games to start the season. Can’t overlook needing to win tie-breaker scenarios which starts by beating Sacramento on Wednesday.

    This was kinda my point about us using the pick this season. This rookie isn’t going to help Dame get to that next level anytime soon. Hoping we all look at things realistic before we MELTDOWN in these games threads. Because if you are going into those games EXPECTING a W….ouch.

    The most interesting games will be Sactown and Houston. Those are the only games out of the 10 where the Blazers won't be clear underdogs. If the Blazers look bad in those 2 games....:grim:

    Yep. Looks like he will miss the first week and a half - two weeks of the season.

    6-4! We’ll be lucky to be 4-6. I’d be happy to be proven wrong though.

    It's going to be an ugly start to the season with this stretch of games.

    If we start the season 41-0 we can trade all of our players for multiple 1st round draft picks.
