    if aminu and myers can just return to pre injury form and hit 36-37% we'll be better. with josef's gravitational pull there will likely be a lot better looks from the three and hopefully no one turns them down like AC. aminu won't, unsure about myers. if others are making the shots, Josef's likely to get his own easy buckets in the paint and better offensive rebounding opportunities if they miss. everyone plays 82 games is my hope.

    i really REALLY hope we get a healthy Ed of yesteryear back this season. he was underwhelming with the injury, i hope he plays like he has something to prove, cause he does.

    How certain of Blazers success are we? So certain we're starting our happy dances BEFORE the season even starts.

    Here's @dviss1 in action:

    It's threads like this that make you all mental 5 games in. Ready to jump off the nearest bridge or building when we are down 10 to a team we SHOULD be at halftime. You'll never learn FAMS!

    I hate the thought process in these comments.
    It's this thought process that leads people to believe dogs are dangerous.
    Sorry, I couldn't let it go.

    Even a dog playing poker would say the blazers are winning 50 games this year.

    Man, just imagine how insufferable you're going to be next year when the Lakers get George and LeBron. Damn!

    our bench is going to out score opposing benches by 10 pts. per game and never relinquish a lead.
