    I don't think we suck bro. We look like a team that has been scouted. We look like a team that has been figured out and we are missing our best player. We look like a 40 win team. #ItsALongSeasonFAMS

    Great post game meal though. Some Sicilian breaded chicken with roasted potatoes and broccoli and a caesar salad. Off to watch a couple shows. Hope you all have a wonderful thanksgiving.

    Yep. If we had won, since Utah lost, we would’ve been #1. Since we lost, we’re 8th.

    We need to get rid of those black, blue and teal uniforms. They're killing us.

    Not true. He had 26 and 30 the past two games, shooting well over 60% in both.

    This is why it doesn't freaking matter if we win a game to get 1st in November. It just doesn't matter. I'll never be convinced otherwise

    that's just purely myopic because you can't isolate parts of a single trade from the process

    Blazer exchanged CJ, Powell, and Nance for Grant, Hart, Winslow, Keon, an upgrade to Sharpe over AJ Griffin/Johnny Davis, and two 2nds.

    and of course, there is not one shred of evidence that Powell had more value than what was returned to Portland by dumping him. Trading for Powell so he could be the SF was just another idiot olshey fuck-up that he doubled down on by signing him to that idiot contract. Cronin did a great job getting out from under that stupid contract without any future cost. The last time Portland made as big a mistake with their own free agent was Allen Crabbe. And the Blazers will still have the stain of that idiocy with a 2.84M encumbrance on next year's cap

    A little above my 40 win prediction, but that sounds about right.
