Game Thread GAME# 27: BLAZERS @ THUNDER - DECEMBER 16, 2015 - WEDNESDAY, 5:00 PM (PST), KGW

Maybe you should just get back into your time machine, journey back to Tuesday and wait until tomorrow with the rest of us.

 

Wow! Meyers with 15 and 12 after one quarter!

 

SEE! When you do the game thread they don't even know when the game is!!!!!!!!!!

 

LMAO! Oh wow, I am so dumb. I got dressed up in my Blazer gear before going out today, and even asked people if they were going to see the game tonight.

So dumb.

Thank you everyone. Don't let my stupidity infect you, lol.

 

So if we go 2-3 you think we can go 35-16 the rest of the way?

 

Well the Nuggets passed us but the Rockets lost so that is always a win with Blazers fans.

 

Yes. I remember the Pacers were 16-23 at one point during the 1993-94 season. They pulled it together and went 31-12 the rest of the way and then made it to the ECF. I think our team can do the same. Our schedule has been incredibly difficult, we're still getting to know each other, and we're competiting in every game. I think we'll eventually click and run off some nice winning streaks. This also reminds me of the 2001-02 season when we started 13-18 but ended up finishing 49-33. So yes, I think we can go 37-19 the rest of the way with me winning $1200 along the way. Absolutely. Don't underestimate the talent we have on our team.

 

So out of the hundreds of times teams have started out like us over the years, there's a couple instances where they've ended up with 48 or so wins... Just saying

 

There are other instances. Remember the 0-13 Suns team that made the playoffs and nearly won in the first round?

 

Nope not really. I think we might get an 8 seed at around .500.. Don't see us winning that many though

 

1996-97 Suns

Started 0-13. Finished 40-42. Good for the 7th seed. Stole game 1 in Seattle. Lost by 44 in Game 2. Won Game 3 at home. Went to overtime in Game 4 but lost and then lost Game 5 and the series. Pretty amazing.

 

Why does it seem like I'M the only one who calls you out on this stuff?
You are actually comparing the team we have TODAY with a roster that had the following on it...........

Dereck Anderson
Rasheed Wallace
Damon Stoudamire
Dale Davis
Shawn Kemp
Steve Kerr
Ruben Patterson
Scottie Pippen
ZBO
Bonzi Wells

WHAAAAAAT!!!!!!!!????????????

 

Durant, easily. Fuck Russell Westbrook!

 

I said it reminds me of "the season" not "the team."

 

LMAO.

We're a half game out of 8th and a full game out of 7th. That is hilarious and terrible at the same time. I really don't want to lose our pick this year.

 

Agreed.

Kings/Suns/Jazz need to step this shit up.

That said, I expect tonight to be one of our very rare blowout losses . This road trip should get us down a bit

 

Asked Dame earlier this season before the Clippers game who he gets up for the most to play against. Who gives him the biggest challenge and he said Westbrook!

 

Also, DCW, MIL, and NOP are pissing me off - these teams were suppose to be good this year! And MIN was suppose to be better, too.
