    Vegas had us as a 2 point favorite yesterday and has moved us to a 3.5 point favorite today. I don't know how much stock you put in the views of professional handicappers but they seem to increasingly think we will win.

    With the kind of game threads we've had for the "scrimmage" games, is it any wonder we were 0-3?

    Welcome back Darkwebs!!!!

    Wonder how deep Stotts goes rotation wise. Can’t imagine it going much deeper than 8. Trent, Whiteside/Collins, and...hopefully Nas but wouldn’t be surprised if it was Mario, especially since he can handle the ball.

    Vegas is based on the group think of betting. I think this means people are as a whole favoring us.

    Anxiously awaiting the unveiling of Stotts' double-secret flowing-offense lockdown-defense game plan!!!

    Well the initial line of 2 points was the handicappers prediction but the line moving means the majority of betters at this point have been betting that we will win by more than 2.

    I think our team is lacking speed. We got our Bigs but we don’t have speed.

    I wonder if Hassan is already on his way out of Portland because he has to come of the bench
