    yeah, just like you put words in my mouth earlier :). I mean very confident is a pretty strong thing to say. and no, orlando is not some tough team you suggest they. Before beating us tonight they were on a 6 game losing streak. Nothing about that screams tough, no matter how close games were for them. No picture needs to be drawn for me, I'm not as confident as you and these games kind of prove it. If nothing else we have been a bad to average road team this year. That isn't exactly going in our favor.

    We got completely outworked by a lottery bound Eastern Conference team and this was after Portland suffered two difficult losses. I expected this team to come out with a sense of urgency and they showed up in a trance.

    All in all a completely unacceptable and inexcusable loss by a team that's trying to fight for Home Court Advantage. This team pisses me off. So much talent. So fucking inconsistent, esp. against teams with losing records.

    What's worse is we're wasting monster nights from Aldridge. I'm starting to feel like if we choke down the stretch and stumble in the playoffs, he could look elsewhere. Not saying, it's a lock he would leave, but dude's in his prime and wants to play deep into the playoffs.

    Don't worry KingSpeed will be around soon with another "Looking at the Rest of the Schedule...and I don't see us losing" thread.

    Good to see nothing was learned or gained by this team. They have multiple personalities.

    I put words in your mouth? excuse me? do tell where I said anything like you did to bait me.
    What because I said "people act like this was an easy stretch for the blazers?"
    Hmm doesn't seem like i put any words in your mouth, but good try.
    Especially from this post.

    Orlando may have been on a 6 game losing streak but that doesn't tell the whole story for a young lotto bound team.
    Go look at the final scores over that streak, where they competitive? Yes they were...
    Loss to Dallas by 5...
    Loss to Huston by 13. When they had a lead going to the 4th quarter.
    Loss to Cavs by 15. <-- only game it wasn't under 10 going to the 4th.
    Loss to Boston by 7 <-- Boston is really good at the moment and have beat the Blazers.(minus Aldridge or not)
    Loss to Milwakie by 6....
    Loss to Indiana by a lot. <-- only blowout.

    So one blowout in that stretch of 6 game losses.
    You said I wouldn't have to draw a picture but obviously I do.
    Orlando is a good team, and with Dragic Miami is too. Especially when Wade turns back the clock.

    These games prove nothing other than the Blazers are in a ROUGH stretch.
    The Blazers have been an average road team. Good thing they have proven they can win on the road last year... And have a good record against All western playoff teams minus the Warriors and Memphis.

    Picture Drawn.

    For a team that was so money when leading after three quarters earlier, we seem to be shitting the bed a lot lately. Tonight? Outscored 36-22!

    Also, MB mentioned Nico may be having the "yips" inbounding the ball ... really hope that doesn't end up being the case. But goodness, why is it so difficult for us to pass it in?
