At least we're showing our basketball intelligence, and not overreacting after playing two poor teams
After this opening 3-game trip, 11 of the next 13 games are at home, most against presumably subpar teams. Basically, these first 16 games are the easiest portion of the Blazers' schedule.
We played and beat two teams we were expected to win. That's always a good start to a season building momentum towards something better, the playoffs and hopefully the finals!
