    GAME NOTES
    ​
    • The Blazers are 37-38 all time head to head with the New Orleans Pelicans
    • The Pelicans are on a 6-0 streak against the Blazers
    • Chauncey Billups is 1-9 vs Willie Green
    • The last time the Blazers had a winning season vs the Pelicans, Terry Stotts was coaching his last year. The Blazers went 3-0 against the Pelicans that season
    • CJ McCollum was drafted by the Blazers with the 10th pick in 2013. He was traded to the Pelicans in 2022 in a deal in which none of the other players involved remain on Portland's roster. The Blazers did net a late 1st, which they traded to Detroit for Jerami Grant.

    Well, 0-2 doesn't sound so bad.

    With it being so close to Halloween they should really have the Ichabod Crane treatment.

    Horrible starting lineup. Zero ball movement with this setup. Yes GSW has better players than POR but not the most talent in the league. Not even close. but shit look at their ball movement! Why the obsession with hero ball?

    I was dumb enough to think the Blazers might start the season 2-1 at home. I wasn't giving them a good chance at that, but a small chance. After last night, 0-3 looks likely. But it is hard to beat a team twice in 3 nights on the road. And the Pels lost Murray with a broken last night; and Trey Murphy is injured too

    this is a game where Ayton needs to convince the Pels to trade for him!

    Sure, but for what? We don't want Ingram either, nor does anyone else seem to.

    If we lose a lot of these early games quickly and by more blowouts is there a higher chance we'll trade away some of our vets ASAP?

    I don't mind the losses but I can't stand having both such a shitty team and with all 5 vets on the roster in some major roles (Grant, Ayton, Simons, Thybulle, Timelord)

    But also I don't see how these blowouts help anyone trade value. Blazers should have traded these vets away when they traded Dame. Instead every month they lose value and we get stuck with them standing in the way of opportunities for our youth.

    I hope so. I like watching the guys who are hungry for a contract.

    The Blazers are my team and I will always follow them but this just feels like a waste of my time.
    I probably got better things to do.
