    No thanks... this is probably the least excited I have been going in to a new season in recent memory. It’s the exact same roster that got swept by the Pelicans in the playoffs last year. Still can’t believe they are bringing back same coach and same starting 5 after that complete and utter failure of a season... no accountability... unbelievable

    I hear you, I’m excited for basketball season. I will probably always be. In terms of how far I think the Blazers go, and the summer. Overall it feels fairly insignificant, but I think Curry and a bigger dose of Baldwin could be a pretty significant upgrade over Our bench guards last year. The real hope for the Blazers is they need Zach to pop, if that happens they could theoretically be a team that could at least make things interesting vs GS.

    Now, They could miss the playoffs too. I just think there is at least some ‘hope’ for them to improve. Hopefully if they miss the playoffs then or get swept in the 1st round again that will finally trigger PA to make some changes.

    Maybe they'll let you shoot blindfolded 3-pointers this time!

    Failure of a season? The regular season was a success. The postseason was the failure.

    I think we’ve all had this conversation all summer. Some people think the whole season was a waste of time because of the outcome in the playoffs, they think the record was a fluke. Some people don’t. I actually think people have made good points on both sides, but I doubt anyone’s going to change someone else’s mind at this point.

    For the record, I am kind of on your side, but The playoff performance really, really over-shadowed the regular season accomplishments at least for me.

    Oh, 100%. But the regular season was still a success. The overall outcome wasn't, but the regular season was.

    It's also the exact same roster that earned the 3rd seed in the Western Conference and won the most competitive division. It's also the same PG who made First Team All-NBA. Look at both sides of the coin, man.

    I went to the Wes Matthews/Luke Babbitt one. Wes won Player of the Game. Babbitt danced the Dougie and it was embarrassing.
