    We have 4 good games to win! Knicks, Wolves, Lakers and Denver. We can go 4-0! Hard loss to Bucks but they are playing good lately!

    Our home record is embarrassing. We should make it a goal to win the rest of our home games. No reason why we can't.

    Shouldn't it already be a goal to win each and every game?

    Knicks have some good players and they beat us in NYC. Don't count on a blowout though it would be nice.

    If Portland has one player show up against the Knicks like they did the Pelicans... Portland will lose.
    I have this feeling the young players on Portland's roster are going to play the record, like they did with the Pelicans
    I hope I'm wrong~

    I voted no in the thread because I have concerns about Nurk's weight.
    More weight = more injuries. Portland has a horrible track record with CotF

    Because it's done in a vacuum and can't possibly be individual....

    What? Really? That's brutal. I don't ever recall the Blazers having a cross country back to back.
