To win a playoff series, you need to win 4 out of 7 games. That is the exact winning percentage we have now at 32-24. Looking forward to championship parade in July.
I like to expand my scope and use all-time winning percentage and it's why I'm going with the Spurs this season.
The other ones were serious but this one's a joke right? I mean we all know that the teams we've been beating won't be in the playoffs to give us that perpetual 4-3 advantage. So, the way we've been playing against teams that are in the top 10 in the West... the playoffs won't turn out too great. It's a small sample size but 6 wins and 11 losses against those teams doesn't bode well. I know we haven't had CJ or Nurk for some of those games but still 6-11 is a bit hard to look past. Even if we take out the games that CJ and Nurk both missed we're still 4-6 against those top 10 teams in the West. It's going to be really really hard to go anywhere in the west when we don't even have a winning record against the top ten.
If you only count the wins this year, clearly Portland is going to sweep the entire playoffs! 16-0 baby, looking forward to that July Parade!
Kawhi Leonard has the all time highest winning percentage so I think he’s going to win the title. I hope he enjoys his parade.
Goal from here on out is keeping our lottery pick. No need to slow down the rebuild start! Still mad about that SA win
Eric has proven with math that the Blazers (and a number of other teams) are winning the title this year. Let's not be concerned with other teams, though, let's just celebrate our own imminent championship! Also, I echo the desire that Eric never change. Completely seriously, he brings a necessary vibe to this place.
So we should look at our successes and derive positive conclusions based on those and then ignore all of our failures and never come to any negative conclusions about the team's outlook? Alright, I think I get it now. I hope you're right and we win the championship. Obviously logic would dictate that we won't but I hope logic loses. I worry that you might possibly have a hard time after the play-ins or first round when our season is over but I guess we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
Spurs used to lose to good teams in reg season and then win titles. Which teams you beat in reg season means nothing. We beat 73-9 Warriors by 30 in regular season. Didn’t go like that in playoffs.
