    what do you predict the record will be 25 games into the season for the deep, talented, Blazer team you see? I'm thinking 5-20; maybe 6-19

    he was forcing drives and shots, and frankly, he doesn't look in shape. Clingan definitely bothered him several times

    I also think the Pels are missing Valunciunas a lot more than they thought they would. He was excellent at setting screens and Zion used that for a significant portion of his dribble drives

    Nobody is hating the Blazers by pointing out Murray was out. Murray is a better player than anyone on our team. We were missing Sharpe too. Another fact.

    We won, and HCP was merely pointing out why the Pels looked off.
     
    THE HCP and SlyPokerDog like this.

    So you think the Pels flew home between games?

    Oh I just stated they were missing a 20+ point scoring vet/starting PG is all. You thought I was hating?

    As much as I like winning, beating this team with Grant, Ayton and Simons playing such a big role isn't going to be good for us long term...
