    Normally I'd give you props for this, but I think you jinxed us against the Suns!

    This is a winnable game. All Portland needs to do is play like they did during the last 5 games of preseason.

    It would help if the other team doesnt try very hard to win, as in the preseason.

    I'm very pessimistic about this game. We usually struggle in Denver. I expect us to play very well at home Saturday against a superior Spurs team. But in Denver the altitude is rough and until we are proven otherwise I have to pencil this Blazer team in for road struggles.

    It’ll be interesting to see Lopez vs Hickson. I’ve been a pretty big Hickson supporter around here as I think even with his deficiencies he is a legit rotational player. If our D and team rebounding doesn’t improve over game1, and particularly from Lopez, I’ll begin to wonder if Lopez fits with this team in the long term.

    I take it you didn't catch the Clipper and Golden State game then.

    http://espn.go.com/nba/boxscore?gameId=400491566 - Griffin (25 minutes), Dudley (38), Paul (30), Crawford (30), Jordan (22)

    http://www.nba.com/games/20131024/PORGSW/gameinfo.html - Igs (32 minutes), Speights (18), BOGUT (17, BUT FOUL TROUBLE), Thompson (31), Curry (30).

    Yeah they sure played their starters like they didn't want to win those games

    Everyone outside of Lillard/LA shooting 28% (props to Brian for that stat) needs to not happen as well.

    It will be fun to see Aldridge shooting 18 foot jump shots all night instead of abusing JJ "no defense" Hickson down low

    Can we have a friendly wager on this game? I think Aldridge will be living in the paint and out-play Hickson. You obviously think that Aldridge will have a poor rebounding night and live on the perimeter.

    winner must publicly claim they were a fool to ever disagree with the other poster.

    What are the parameters of the bet? Define poor rebounding night. Define live on the perimeter.

    Well… I would assume "poor rebounding" would be anything less than 7 (2 below last season's average). Live on the perimeter would mean that more than 65% of his shots were from there (since that was last year's average).

    I think JJ will be defending Lopez, and McGee will defend LaMarcus.

    What admission are you talking about?

    Oh yes, the short end of the stick? Well if you are making claims that Aldridge won't rebound and shoot 18 foot jumpers, than back peddle like this, then we know where you are going. I gave you a cushion. I mean 2 less rebounds than his last 3 year average?!?!

    Not at all.

    I called everyone else out when they claimed nate was a good coach and Leonar_ was a good basketball player.

    Oh please show me the proof that I said that the last season Nate was coach? And as for Leonard?!?! Ummm, your memory must have been faded because I have been called out with all my statements that Leonard is a pussy. You sure you talking to the right person?
