Curious why this makes you happy? We are going to get curb stomped! On national TV on a holiday for EVERYBODY to see.
It's not like they got a lot better and the Blazers got a lot worse... The Blazers beat them the last game of the season in a game both teams were supposed to "need". Not sure why you think they'll curb stomp the Blazers.
Because it is one of the toughest places for us to win regardless of roster talent. And we are not going to be anywhere as successful next season as this.
It's a tough place to play for anybody and Utah's a good team, but the Blazers are still a pretty good team too. Talent wise I'm not sure Utah's really that far ahead of the Blazers. I think there's a good chance they lose, but if both teams are healthy their fairly even, not sure why any one would predict a blow out either way.
Everybody is entitled to their opinion, and yours is a good one. I just feel that is a tough place to play. I believe we will not field as good a team as last season is all.
Fair enough, you might be right. I’m honestly not sure how I feel about this coming season. Utah and Portland have both had pretty boring summers and are counting on young players to get better, or have a big impact for them. If I had to pick the game right now I’d bet Utah wins, but in my mind it would be a fairly close game.
