    Oubre and Wiggins are a pretty poor replacement for Thompson and Durant

    The worst part is that some Portland fans will see GSW having a bad game as an excuse for the Blazers to play like shit.

    The Nets are looking like what the Clippers were supposed to be last season: an already-good team that added two stars.

    Steve Kerr looks a lot better with 3-4 all-stars on his roster.

    Probably the same could be said for Steve Nash.

    Yes that explains how he turned a good Mark Jackson team into a 73-win team.

    Don't know who I'll be rooting against more when the Nets play the Lakers. Of course, if the Nets somehow got Harden that would seal the deal.

    Poor Kerr. Only has 2 all-stars (in their prime), 2 #1 picks in their 20's, and Oubre.... the guy really has nothing to work with anymore.

    He didn't like the team for so long even though he loves Dame because he kept saying we couldn't get any inside points with LaMarcus always settling for fade-aways. Once Chuck started liking Nurk and Zach and the presence they give us inside he jumped on the very small outside of Portland, Trail Blazers bandwagon.

    Oh shit!!! I was wrong the Lakers aren't the best team in the league. They lost the first game of the season and that's got to be more indicative of future success than the 4 scrimmages the league called preseason games and since that made most in here go from thinking our team was going to challenge for a top 4 seed to being a fringe playoff team... the Lakers must suck.
