    Conzano said 25-32 wins on channel 8 news. I would agree. 30 wins would be my stretch goal for the Blazers. It will put them around 9th-10th place in the west.

    The Vonleh hype train will start earlier than most thought.

    Really? You had to start this thread out by quoting Canzano?

    I predict both teams will play hard.

    Poll or it's not a real predictions thread.

    I'm not just talking about wins & loses. Any predictions. That's why there's now poll.

    - Fraizer will make the team, so will Alexander and Montero

    - Blazers will waive Phil Pressey

    - The starters at the beginning of the season will be Lillard, Crabbe, Aminu, Leonard, and Plumlee

    - Henderson will replace Crabbe when he comes back

    - Meyers Leonard and CJ McCollum will have a break out season

    - Meyers will win most improved player award

    - Meyers will be replaced midseason by Vonleh in the starting lineup

    - Connaughton, Alexander, Kaman, Fraizer, and Montero will see little to no minutes unless injuries happen

    - Injuries will happen

    - Slypokerdog will salivate at Harkless's play this season

    - Blazers will be a more uptempo crash the boards, fast break type team.

    - The Blazers will shoot more three pointers then last year

    - The Blazers will miss more three pointers then last year

    - The Blazers will win 42 games this season

    - If the Blazers miss the playoffs it will be by a game or 2

    Then I fixed it. I was confused. I'm sure it'll alleviate others' confusions.

    1. We're going to suck.
    2. We're going to win less than 30 games.
    3. Moda Center will struggle to get 70% capacity for games as interest in the team will drop to only the most hardcore fans
    4. CJ or Meyers Leonard will be traded at some point in a package with Chris Kaman.

    Good... that means I can sit more in the 100 section and actually afford it.

    I can't sit in the 300's. #vertigo

    Yeah, that was my M.O. when the Blazers are terrible. Unfortunately when I go there for Thanksgiving I think they're playing the Lakers for the game I'm going to and Laker fans annoy the shit outta me, but I'll prob go, just hope none of my Laker fan friends who live in Portland want to meet up or be seen with me.

    When the Clippers were bad, it was even better since no one really cared about either team here in LA.

    I like to actually see the players up close. I figure the 100 levels will go for like $90-120.

    Even more so, the resale of them will be dirt cheap!

    The Blazers will make several in-season trades, acquiring Nic Batum from Charlotte, Robin Lopez from the Knicks, Wes Mathews from Dallas, and Kawhi Leonard from the Spurs.

    People will blame the refs for at least one loss in the first month of the season.
